iRobot Roomba Discovery SE Robotic Cleaner

Last year my father bought me this Roomba for my birthday. I had wanted to try one since they came out. It's cool to watchit work its way around the house. Unfortunately, the Roomba wasn't very effective for me. I have many pets, including several cats and a dog. Although the Roomba is very good at picking up dirt off tile, wood and carpet, the small reservoir is not enough to keep up with the pet hair in the house. Also, the rotating brush is effective, but takes a lot of effort to clean. On the bright side, the company is very responsive to product issues. When the charging station stopped working, they sent me out a new charger right away. I didn't even have to return the broken one. I would recommend a Roomba for smaller houses without pets. Otherwise, the time spent emptying and cleaning the Roomba severely offsets the convenience of having the vacuum run itself.
