I have had my robot friend, Simon, for a week. First impressions upon opening the box was an “Oooo Aahhh”. The directions said to let your new robot friend charge overnight before first use, but of course, I ran him around immediately to just see how he works! He worked for about ten minutes. I couldn’t figure out how to get him to his home (charging station), but it turns out, he can find his own way home just fine. I recommend that you do take a few minutes to read the directions and familiarize yourself with the remote. It took about 4 hours or so for Simon to fully charge, then I turned him loose. Let me just say, I thought my floors were clean, or, at least, pretty clean. As it turns out, they were not. They were not clean at all. Simon has picked up so much fur, dirt, dust, it’s unbelievable. My floors have literally never looked better! They are CLEAN. For real clean. I’ve always had a hard time cleaning under the bed, but now I don’t have to worry about it at all, because my robot friend takes care of it.I have all hardwood floors and tile. I also have a few throw rugs, some thick, some thin. Simon does a perfect job on the floors, and has no problems navigating over the throw rugs (though he might turn up a corner, but he will run back over it and still get it clean). I don’t think your robot friend would work very well if you have a lot of or mostly carpet. If you have hardwood or mostly hardwood, you will love your new robot friend.Simon mostly gets from room to room okay – the “up” entry points he cannot do on his own. For example, he cannot get over the hump into my kitchen, but he can get down the hump. He also cannot get over the hump to get in the bathrooms. This is actually fine for me, because I prefer to control when he goes into the kitchen anyway so that I can shake off the rugs and/or pick up the cat food and water bowls and any shoes or other things that might be on the floor. I just put a bar stool in his way to keep him from exiting the kitchen when it’s time for him to clean in the kitchen.Simon will clean for about 3 or 3.5 hours. He does not have a “plan” so to speak, not like a person would say go from corner to the center of the room, but he is still very thorough, and obviously, his plan is way better than mine since my floors are so much cleaner than they ever were when I was in charge. My advice is to just trust the process and let your robot friend find his way around on his own! Just make sure that you pick up any cords, especially small cords like phone charging cords, and shoe laces or the like, so that he doesn’t accidentally grab onto something he shouldn’t. Simon also has sensors so that when he comes to a piece of furniture or a wall, he will slow down so as to gently bump it before he turns off into a new direction. I have also noticed that if he comes into contact with a chair or table leg, he will often go in a circle all the way around the leg to clean around it.Once your robot friend is done doing your dirty work for you, he will go back home on his own. If your robot friend cannot find his way home, you may not have provided him enough space. Is that any way to treat your new best friend?? Make sure that he has several feet of clear space in front of his charging station, and that there are a few feet of clear space on the sides of the charging station as well. Also, make sure to empty out his dust bin after every use.One of the fortunate side effects of having my new robot friend, is the “give a mouse a cookie” effect it seems to have had. Give a person a clean floor, and the person may say oh, it looks so clean in here, let me pick up this shirt and put it away. The person then notices that the bathroom trash can is full; since the floors look so nice, the bathroom should be clean, too *cleans bathroom*, and so on.The only thing about my new robot friend, which isn’t enough to bother me at all, is that he is, well, he’s not super loud, but he’s not very quiet either. So, if you are watching tv, you may need to turn it up just a bit if you are running your robot friend while you’re at home. Well worth it for the service he provides, though.Overall, I do recommend this little robot. I am very pleased with this purchase.

I don't think I can begin without first saying... Where has this little guy been my entire adult life? Seriously my fellow citizens, if you have pets and feel like managing hair is an uphill battle, you need this product. Living in our home is 2 adults, a German Shepherd and a cat. Our GS sheds like she gets paid to do it. My usual routine was to vacuum on Wednesday's and Saturday's and most of the time, I would have to pull our the Shark on other days due to all of the hair that my girl dropped on the daily. With the bag-less Shark meant for pets, I would empty the canister 3 times each time I vacuumed, and that is no exaggeration.... I no longer have to pull out the Shark on day's other than my usual Wed and Saturday! IT IS THE BEST!After receiving this guy (haven't named him yet), within the week, I knew I was falling in love. I don't have him set to run every day at the same time, so I run manually when I choose.Let's get to the great things this little guy does for me and a couple of his hiccups:1. I run him every day (except on Wed/Sat when I Shark vacuum) usually in the evenings when we're home from work. He runs about 2 hours and I stop him twice during that time to clean out the bin.2. He's taken on, what looks to be 5 different paths in our home. I've never had one before, so I don't know what it would be like to have one that learns the home, but this one works for our needs. He takes a different path each day and then you get a good rotation for the entire week.3. I only use him on hard-wood and ceramic tile. I don't use him on carpet because I don't think he has the suction to handle that type of job. I let my Shark handle that for me. Again, I have a large GS and a cat.4. He does go over my normal thickness rugs, but he will not attempt the thick piled run in my living area, nor would I expect him as when he does find his way on the rug - he really has to work to get back down.5. He will get stuck from time to time under a certain cabinet in my kitchen, guess that's a low spot. I try to watch out for that area. He will also get stuck under my dining room table that seats 6 and is very tight. Usually, he works his way through the areas perfectly, but he has gotten stuck twice under there and turned itself off.6. Had recently dropped a coffee cup in the kitchen, put him on spot and he cleaned up the small shards nicely.7. I love to set him to clean around the baseboards - that is a nice option for people with pets because the hair tends to hug the baseboards in high traffic areas like my hallway. Such a quick pick-up when company is coming and you're in a time crunch.8. He usually always finds his way back to his base. When he fails to find home, it's because I had to purposely move him SEVERAL times for one reason or the other. If I move him once or twice, he still finds home.9. My dog has zero problem with him, was concerned as she hates the Shark and tries to attack it. This one, doesn't bother her one bit. Our cat is completely infatuated and follows him all over the house.10. He's not quiet, so you may not be able to nap while it's running. We can still watch TV and have a conversation while he's out doing his cleaning.I hope this review helps others that are on fence. Like I said, I've never owned a robot vac before, so I don't have anything to compare. If you're trying not to spend a fortune and want results, you'll get it with this one. Again, I use for hardwood and ceramic tile floors only. I don't think you would get great results for carpeted floors cleaning up after pets, just my opinion that it's not strong enough to handle that type of job. I love that I'm able to manage the pet hair in my home with this little guy, it totally works for us. This one is relatively inexpensive compared to others on the market. In my opinion, I can't see those other high-dollar brands being that much better to warrant the money.

We’ve purchased other name-brand vacuums in the past, and they’ve started to age, so when we saw this one advertised, we decided to give it a try. It’s lightweight and about the same size as most of the models you see in stores.Setting it up was super easy—just plug in the base, and it docks into the charger. The battery life is really impressive! While some people mentioned it didn’t work well on carpet, I was prepared for it to struggle a bit, but it actually did great! It went over our throw rugs (which are short) and even our bedroom carpet with ease.The vacuum seems to be built well and does a solid job picking up dog hair, crumbs, lint, and other small debris. We use it 2-3 times a week, and it performs consistently. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it’s not quite as powerful as some of the other models we’ve owned, and the bin is smaller, which means more frequent emptying. But for the price, this is definitely a great buy, and I’d happily purchase it again.
