Life with a robot vacuum cleaner
OLD shows like The Jetsons used to predict we’d live with robot servants by now. But while we don’t yet have wisecracking android maids, at least we’re making progress.
Not knowing exactly what to expect, I took a chance on a robot vacuum cleaner a few months ago. If you haven’t seen one of these things yet, they’re pretty nifty little numbers. Basically, it’s a cordless, automated vacuum cleaner that scoots around the house like the cute little robot from Star Wars.
What looks like a plastic 32cm hockey puck bumps around the furniture sucking up whatever dustiness is in its path. It has a shock-absorbing bumper up front which allows it to negotiate obstacles, rotate and move on in a different direction. It hugs corners, follows along walls and generally does a pretty good job. My wife and I haven’t used our normal vacuum cleaner since we bought it.
