I got one, too.
Three key take aways after a few days of robotic cleaning:

  • It will not replace manual vacuuming. It's great for general cleanup, but I'd I wouldn't trust it to have gotten every spot before the in-laws come visit.
  • I have a year-old son, who is always exploring the flat and testing out when his parents tell him to leave something be because it's dangerous or fragile. The robovac told me a lot about cables and wires we had still lying around.
  • Miss-scheduled cleaning cycles at night are scary as hell.
