What have been your results with the Roomba Floor Vacuum Robot?
We have just purchased a new house and have all hardwood floors in the living areas, with pergo in the kitchen and ceramic tile in the foyer and bathrooms. We previously had carpet nearly everywhere and just used our Dirt Devil Vacuum. Now I am having a hard time keeping these floors dust-free, eventhough we take our shoes off once inside. I sweep all the floors every other day and mop the floors every 3-4 days. I have a full time job and two children. I can't keep this up. I need the floors to be clean specifically for my crawling baby girl. Otherwise I could deal with a little dust every now and again.
Any luck using the Roomba System or should I just hire a maid?
Are you satisfied with the results?
I have three Siberian Huskies and was a total skeptic until my wife bought the Roomba Scheduler. It does an excellent job, my carpets always look as if i'm ready to have company. I bought a Roomba Discovery for my lower level and while it does a good job I prefer that my scheduler goes off every day at 8:45am. We also purchased a Scooba and are in love with that too.

It works pretty well, but you have to let it run for a long time to get everywhere. It is fun to watch.

I've got one of the earlier models of the Roomba and love it. I'm actually wanting it to kick the bucket so I can buy a newer model. Yes, they work. The new ones will go back to their base to recharge itself. You can find the Roombas cheaper on eBay. Also note, if you have places in the house that you don't want it going, you can buy extra "walls" (little box that the Roomba won't go past).

Thanks for asking your question. I've been wondering about the Roomba also and found everyone's comments very helpful.
