Man even with my 1 dog when she's shedding there's no way to win

I've given up, the fur has taken over. I eat fur now. I am the fur

A roomba a day keeps the fur away.

I never saw so many hair in one place and my robot is doing his daily round. Just get one (can be any other brand) and zero fur. Mine also has the auto cleaning mode so I can forget about him and do a general cleaning once a week.

Granted my pup is house trained, but the horror of seeing a Roomba hit a turd and drag the mess around has changed my mind about them lol

I decided to get a cordless vacuum instead and it's been a HUGE help

Yeah, it will not happend. In best case it will send you a photo of that turd and it will say that it cannot clean that zone. My kids are little and sometimes they leave their toys everywhere (small and big ones). If roomba detects that, will send me a photo and will ignore that zone.

So no, a smart one will not drag shit everywhere on your house.

Oh that's pretty cool!

I'm also not personally interested in having too many smart devices in my house, but I'm glad that problem has been solved because that's a real nasty one

Without wifi it has the same features but you need to connect via Bluetooth if you want to see the turd haha.

Yeah this is one of those good things to come out of ML/AI stuff. You can actually train a Roomba to detect shit and not smear shit all over the floors. Only really possible when you can actually reliably make the computer recognize poop from a picture.

Had that happen when we woke up and saw brown crop circles up and down the hallway stuck deep into the carpet fibers.....Didn't know to laugh or cry............

I think I went through all the stages of grief when I saw the mess ours created.

Yeah….so I have a robot vacuum I run offline and it smeared a turd around my whole kitchen. I usually run it daily during shedding season, but lesson learned and now I only do it if I’m around to watch.
