Cool driving by REI on Black Friday and seeing the store closed. Kudos for thinking of employees and customers before profit. On the other hand, we participated in the shopping craziness by getting a Roomba. Figured the vacuum robot tech must be well along by now. Mixed results in the first run.
Pratik Long-time Roomba user here. Does the randomness of its cleaning path bother you? :)
Manton Reece @pratik Randomness is okay. But it did get stuck a couple times. Still too early to really judge it, and we've had extra people and pets and clutter this weekend.
Pratik I love its randomness. I asked coz new owners typically cite that as a bug. But yup, getting stuck under non-standard nooks & crannies is an issue. E.g., it always gets stuck in the toe kick in our kitchen coz the previous owners installed the laminate on top of the existing flooring thus reducing the space.
