    This is best thought of as a Robo-Swifter, not a Robo-Vacuum, but that can be good as it’s silent and yet does what it’s designed for. We got one because my wife hated the noise of my Roomba running daily, but we needed to keep the cat hair under control between weekend vacuuming. Wife says it’s one of our best purchases ever.

    Good points:
    - effortless way to keep pet hair and dust bunnies from building up
    - cheap @ $20 a pop on Woot
    - silent
    - no need to make room roomba friendly (move wires etc)

    Bad points:
    - cats shed too much so if I don’t run it daily then I need to stop it a few times and pull the hairballs off the dusting pad
    - glued shut so once the battery dies then you’ll need to toss it. I figure I’ll get a year out of mine (6 months so far)
    - the dust pads aren’t really reusable (25c each in bulk on ebay, search for Robomaid)
    - can only slide on a smooth surface (won’t track dust onto carpet but won’t find other rooms if there’s a bump between them)

    Works pretty darned well! Great cat toy, too., July 13, 2011

    I also have a Roomba and it works fine but I got this little gem (Robomop) on Woot, mostly to drive my cats insane. Instead, I find myself letting it run at least once a day all over the hardwood and tile floors in the house. It quietly mops up cat hair and dust bunnies from under and close to the edges of furniture like a trooper.

    It’s basic and nothing fancy but it works well! I use one side of the little mop-thingies and then turn it over and use the other side. Even if I run it every day, it always catches plenty of dust and hair, which says “it works”.

    The added benefit is exercising my two very fat cats a little, chasing it around. It can “take a lickin’ and keep on tickin’”, too, because one of those cats batted and slammed it across the room and it just kept rolling.

    The only downside I have found is that when it stops, I have trouble finding it if it happens to stop under furniture or the guinea pig cage. Not a big deal; it gets ME a little exercise, too– crawling in the floor looking for it. :)

    I gave it a five because how many things work as advertised AND are fun for pets, too?

    I got a Robomop as a gift and used it once. It worked rather well, but then when I went to re-charge it, nothing. Nothing on the display, won’t turn on, dead. The company has not responded to my inquiries about a replacement, even though it comes with a 30-day guarantee.
