The dog runs from it but I am in love!!!! It was pricy...yes. It does need to be cleaned out often...yes. BUT.....that's minor compared to the time that I am saving with this! We have 4 children age 8-14 and a american staffordshire terrier.....we only have one room that is carpeted....the other 3000+ square feet are wood floors....you know the kind where the dust bunnies make their way to the corner really quickly? I used to spend so much time sweeping and vacuuming every day. I remember thinking one time that I would like to have a job outside the home rather than work from home all the time....then I wondered BUT WHO WOULD CLEAN THE FLOORS? It was THAT bad...seriously! I have 1 roomba for each floor....this pet one we use on the main floor because that is where the dog mainly is but it also works better on things like grass, people hair, bigger crumbs etc so I'm thinking about replacing the other with this one. I love this thing and gave it a perfect rating but there are some things that you should know before making your decision to purchase any roomba. 1. It will not pick up large things. 2. if you have the higher wood register covers, it can and will knock them out of place and get stuck in the vent whole. 3. If you are obsessive about the floors, you will want to plan to still clean them.....maybe half as much as you did before. I went from daily to 2 times a week. 4. it did get stuck on my rugs in front of the door...so we bought new ones with great backing to keep it in place and that solved the problem. 5. It's not quite as smart as they want you to think it is....it starts out going in circles and can get a whole empty room easily but when obstacles are involved, it bumps them and changes directions....I babysit mine while I do laundry...check on it and set it back on course if needed. Point is...its great if you need some extra help and I think its well worth the money BUT it won't do the whole job for you....there is still a bit of effort needed on your part.
