I love my Eufy brand robot vac. I just set it going and forget it.
You will need a charging point that it can easily access. You will also need to make sure that there are no wires or other trailing things on the floor. You will soon find where there are problems as if it gets stuck it cries! It also needs to be emptied after every use and the brushes cleared regularly. Get a light one and you can lift it up onto a table to do this.
Please check that the cat hasn't left any presents as robot vacs are known to spread mess further!

My family want to club together and get me a robot vacuum cleaner for Christmas. I must say the idea quite appeals to me as I have chronic back pain which makes vacuuming actually painful.
I'm sure there must be a number of 'cons' to consider and would love to hear from anyone who has one of these Roomba vacs. My house is carpeted throughout apart from the tiny kitchen, and I have a cat.
They sound too good to be true (which usually means they are.
