Do these robot hoovers work well? And last long time? If anyone has one and can recommend any? I have a dog and she is moulting lots all the time

I was speaking today to someone who absolutely swears by them. On top of which you can put water in them and then will scrub the floors. For 300GBP I think I'm going to risk it. I have four moulting dogs and in this heat they are moulting bucket loads of hair a I have to vacuum the whole house every day.

We have recently bought one from Irismo. The new shop in Karakum near the exchange place, it is a ROIDMI Eve Plus.

It’s great! It vacuums and mops. They will show you how it works in the shop. Great service.

a1sysman, apparently there are bristles that stick out and get into corners. They have them on sale in the Vodaphone shop in Alsancak, I wonder if its the same make and price as yours Mrs D.? Do you empty yours after every time you have used it.

The one we bought has a base station that it goes back to which has a central dust bag and it automatically empties into that. You can schedule it on the app to clean whenever you want when you aren’t there so it’s great for when you are going away. Just need to watch it clean the first time to make sure you haven’t got anything in the way.

Really pleased with it.

I've been studying our rooms and sadly I think its going to be a no no as we have too many steps i.e. kitchen to living room, living room to hall etc, etc. plus all the living room furniture goes right down to the floor. (A bit similar as to why the Tardis will never rule the world.....it can't go up and down stairs)

I think the special effects department on Dr Who spent another £100 so;

That "voice" still gives me the shivers. Still don't think the robot vacuums will go up and down a couple of stairs from kitchen to dining room etc though.

I believe some are programable so you can set it to only vacuums a certain area.

That being the case Soner, it would be a waste of money. If it can't go up and down from room to room downstairs it would be a bit pointless. Sorry though, I'd like to have given it a go.
