I'm a man. I hate cleaning and if it weren't for the social embarrassment I probably would never do it. Just stating facts so far. So about a year ago my tiny piece of crap vacuum(which I'd had roughly as far back as my memory goes) died and I was forced to buy a new one. So like any good capitalist citizen I headed to a giant box store. There I encountered several pimple faced teenagers who for the most part were not sentient. Ahhhh. I digress. They had trouble pointing to anything but a $500 canary yellow automated robot that I was disappointed to discover could not actually do anything you'd expect a robot to handle with relative ease. No laser beams, no teleportation, nothing. All in all a letdown. So using the miracle of the internet I found a small locally owned store with a man who despite what I'm quite sure is classic paranoid schizophrenia was unbelievably well versed in the nuances of the modern day vacuum cleaners for domicile use. He was quite fascinating and he allowed me to test the fancy robot and the Kenmore I ended up purchasing. Sadly, the Kenmore does not come with a skinny graying man dressed all in black and sporting an intoxicating accent, but it did actually clean and somehow despite being better at its god given job cost about a third of the banana colored monstrosity it was pitted against. I still hate cleaning but at least I was able to keep my dignity.
