Update - all of the below still applies however, the original unit started to make a horrible noise. I was within return time frame and Amazon replaced it with no issues. So far so good with replacement.So I've been looking at robotic vacuums for awhile, which is a daunting task. There are so many brands and options of varying price ranges you'll easily get lost in what exactly your looking for and what price range you can find it in.--------------------------Well Black Friday hits and low and behold the vacuum brand we trust had a robot on a decent sale. Right away great purchase. I have two kids and one on the way, house hold cleaning is a full time job so it's great to have some help!Frank is exactly what we needed (yes we named the robot Frank), anyhow we have 75% wood/tile floor 25% carpet upstairs and Frank does very well with it. I used to have to vacuum/sweep multiple times a day if I wanted to go without shoes because the kids always seem to leave a trail of something.Downstairs is all carpet and we moved Frank down there as well, mainly to keep up with under the beds 2 or 3 times a week (we also have two cats that love hiding under there). The XL bin is great it covers the hour cleaning cycle with room to spare (cat hair, lego pieces lost by the kids, even a 4/5 inch glass cutting tool the kids hid under the bed once!).Pros:- Kids keep their areas clean now, they know Frank will eat 'anything' mainly because we said he would. But he can for sure handle his own.- Dust bin is large enough for an hour long cleaning session.- Does not fall off stairs due to sensors- Does not ram into things full speed (slows down within 3-4 inches of objects until bumper gets depressed from contact)- Did I mention the kids keep things tidier? Well that's a real thing lol!- Handles pet hair well- Mobile app for scheduling and locating Frank (he'll beep if you use the locator)- Alexa enabled deviceThere are some cons but for my first purchase at the holiday sale price they don't ding my rating very much.Cons:- No 'mapping' or 'remembering' (there is no rhyme or reason to where Frank goes or why he just goes and when he hits something he'll turn at around a 45 degree angle and go again)- Will take awhile to dock if docking is initiated a distance away (Frank will not map the area so will guess his way to the dock)- I wish the side brushes on both sides were longer and had the 3 brushes like the replacements I'll end up buying- Scheduling is static you can only pick one time per individual day (some days there may be a need due to traffic in the house to do a morning and evening clean. It would be nice if there was more flexibility with scheduling so days like that we know of we could just set it and forget it.)That is all I can think of right now, I may take a video and add to my review if there is any interest in that. But to recap everything for our first robot vacuum we're more than impressed. The house is cleaner with little effort on our part so we can concentrate on other things that need to be done when we need to. There are cons but I had no idea what to expect, sure if my price range was higher I could get the mapping and other things I think were cons but again they're a wish list and I really had no expectations pre-purchase.If you're on the fence, I do recommend a robot vacuum. Just write out what you're looking for and what you're willing to pay and compare products. Over all I'm very happen and would give 4.5 out of 5 if there were half stars.
