I am now a Roomba Convert. I have a 2400 Sq ft. home, a combination of wood and linoleum floors, two stories tall...no match for the Roomba. This vaccuum is amazing. It will not save you any time on the first day because you will waste an hour or so standing there staring at it because it's so cool to watch. I never realized how much dirt I was passing over while sweeping (I used to hand sweep and/or vaccuum everyday) or using the competitor's push vac for hard floors, until I set the Roomba loose. It picks up everything, even very short hair and particles I thought I had already gotten because I could no longer see them! It even picked up the tiniest specks of dust from wood floors that I swept minutes before I opened my new Roomba. I have two dogs and both my daughter and I have long hair, this Roomba never falls behind. I wish the bin was bigger, but in order for it to be bigger the machine would have to be bigger and it's size is perfect for getting into spaces. However convenient, this is not a lazy person's vaccuum, you will have to pick up phone cords if they lie flat on the floor, and you will have to pick up larger objects such as coin money and wadded up wrappers, etc. otherwise the Roomba will get them and it's not a pretty sound. This thing will get the fuzz and dust bunnies under the bed too (All of them), but if you think you might have left a sock or something under there, then you'd better check before you set it loose or else unseen garments will be picked up and get tangled. I love the fact that I can leave the house to take the kids to school and come back to find my living room and dining room clean and then go pick them up from school while it cleans the upstairs, never falling down the stairwell. I can even load the dishwasher while it cleans the kitchen, I just occasionally step over it and keep going. It's an awesome coexsistence and I highly recommend this product.
Dogs don't love it, mine avoid it, and though it is a bit noisy, it's worth the time it saves! I use my Roomba everyday and gladly gave away the competitors stick-vac. I will continue to own and use a Roomba until they make floors that vaccuum themselves!
