Another Great Pet Product!

The Roomba by IRobot is becoming an ever-popular gift for people who value their time. Have you heard of these things yet? Well, it's a robotic vacuuming unit that automatically vacuums and sweeps your whole house while you do other things!

At first, I thought it was a silly idea. I mean, how hard is it to vacuum or sweep? But my mom had been raving about Max ever since she got him, so I decided I would get my wife one for Christmas, and see how it works. (Apparently, if you get a Roomba, it is the "in thing" to give it a name.) As I was looking online, I realized they also have models specifically designed for pet hair, which was perfect, because Shadow, as big as he is, leaves a lot of hair lying around. We also have 3 cats, so keeping up with the sweeping was an everyday chore.

Well, Jeeves, our new robot, has performed greatly, and my wife is very happy! He is currently sweeping my office as I type. Have you ever noticed that within an hour or so of sweeping your house, you will still find dust bunnies or tufts of pet hair lying around? And you think to yourself, "I thought I just swept that!" Well we don't see any of that any more. Jeeves is small enough to get under the beds, and even though he is round, he has a side brush that gets into the corners, even under our cabinets. We have hard floors with area rugs, and he transitions from one to another with no problem. He's very quiet, too.

Every morning, we just press the power button on the top, and away he goes! And when he is done, he finds his way back to his charging station, and gets ready for tomorrow. And the floors simply look great!

Anyway, if you are a pet owner, and you value your time, I consider the Roomba Pet Series to be a must!
