robot history RCA Whirlpool built a kitchen of the future about 1958 with a robot vac that parked itself under the cabinets.Overall shape was similar to the deluxe RCA Whirlpool canister without, of course, the hose.There was a picture in Life magazine. | ||

More nice news . . . I won't be surprised if they eventually will provide for hook up to a central vac system to make emptying even less an issue. CLICK HERE TO GO TO venson's LINK | ||

call me old fashioned but I prefer an actual vacuum in my hands, just like i prefer to mow my own lawn and wash my car. Its one of the reasons I hardly ever use my central vac. I understand and really appreciate central vacs and there values but for me I hate the long hoses and its just as much work lugging the hose and pn around as it is a normal upright vacuum, for me that is

@venson
no didn't misunderstand you just adding my 2 cents worth. They are a novelty we get a few as trade inns every month in the shop, I have the electolux one myself apart fom all he ones traded in, roomba's and samsungs mainly. they do work a treat on wooden floors but as I have 11 cats they get jammed up with pet hair in seconds ( we vacuum at least 4 or 5 times day. I have vacuums stationed all over ready for use. I love my cats but hate pet hair on anything, my wifes friends think its grand that a man can use a vacuum. :) | ||

This Much I Know.... ....If you want to freak a cat out BUT GOOD, a Roomba will do the trick! My cat saw one only once, and was a nervous wreck for three days.... | ||

@gsheen . . . Thanks, gsheen, I got it. It's most interesting that they're accepted as trade-ins. I haven't heard of that happening here. Do you clean them up and re-sell them or do they get junked? | ||
