Don’t put puppy shite on it and turn it on.

the government uses the onboard camera in them to monitor you

Depends on your needs hoss.

I have the XV 21 signature and it does everything I need, which is clean the house.

If you need it to connect to wifi and all that shite look at the newer models.

If I bought one today, I'd get the cheapest with the new battery in it. Which I think is the D3 or D5, they have the specs on their website.

Let me check with my evening maid to see what she recommends and I’ll get back to you

Ha! On sale. Poor.

I have an 800 Series roomba and it does well. I typically close off the bed rooms and bathrooms and let it run just in the kitchen, dining, Living, and hallways 3 times a week. I have no complaints. Just remember that the more random rooms it runs in, the more likely it is to disappear, lol

I hated ours. It was awful. It beat the heck out of baseboards and was a general PITA. It's been a few years though so maybe they are better now.

It's like yelling at your kids to go vacuum. You can tell it to clean from work or the from the bar before you bring that piece of arse home to your filthy one bathroom efficiency apartment that was advertised as city view, but is really just looking directly into the building next door. Which you thought would have a hot chick possible living there that is careless with her curtains, but instead is just a middle aged pencil pushers that spends most of his days staring at his door trying to pick his nose before his secretary walks back in.
