I agree, I probably do my best thinking while not staring at a screen. But I'm asking about seating for work that requires a computer.

Perhaps, but I don't think it would be impractical for something that's nearly $5,000 already. You would likely spec two smaller, cheaper motors; altogether it would cost more, but not as much as two of the motors it has now.

Yes, I agree. I was careful to say from a mechanical standpoint.

I mostly agree about the advantages, but two motors would be arguably simpler from a mechanical standpoint.

I wonder how those rear wheels handle corners. I'm a little surprised they didn't use two independent drive motors, versus a single motor and solid axle, which could be extended to implement an electronic differential.

In my opinion, that's the point of them. One Roomba run is not equivalent to manually vacuuming your house, but they don't mind cleaning every single day.

In my opinion, it's a totally different approach that accomplishes roughly the same thing. I agree that manually vacuuming is better, but you probably don't have the wherewithal to do it daily. The average amount of dirt on your f

I have a similar combination, the i7 with a 240, and I also think they're great. I can't even remember life before daily automatic floor cleanings. I think you're right about iRobot's competition iterating more quickly,

The 600 series is actually a relatively mature product line; there are only two models in this series currently, but there were many before them. The 900 series used to have the 980 and 985 in addition to the 960, but iRobot shifted its foc

Yes, cleaning with/without lights is another consideration, but an easy one to overcome no matter your preference. I went all in and have smart lighting that comes on when the Roomba runs at night, but it doesn't need much light,

It sounds like you found a good solution for your situation. I have both kids and a dog, so the daily cleaning my Roomba does is a game changer. No more piles of fur or crumbs accumulating in the corners. I have to empty the bin every other

The simplest machine that will clean your living room? That'd be the 675. It's currently $219.99 on their website--it can easily clean one room. But you also mention having them "all over [your] house." In that case, I&#

Another issue is that it can cause osmotic diarrhea since it essentially stays in the intestines.
