I have TWO Roombas. I have dark wood and tile floors and like to keep the windows and patio doors open for the breeze, so there is always dust flying in. Too much work for just one Roomba (even though my condo is smallish).

They're in separate rooms but I don't know what they're doing when I'm not around.

I'm frightened.

TWO ROOMBAS !!! even more jealous.

(two of them together ? there can be no doubt : like cats, they are surely plotting your demise. and world domination.)

You are a woman of refined and elegant tastes and a true patron of the arts!

Sorry, I think I've been watching too many Jane Austen movies!

But the sentiment still stands.

Have you noticed any "unusual" sounds coming from the fridge, to the TV?

How about computers? How many do you have now??

Don't you know, all those wires, plugs, etc meet somewhere in your walls?

Don't put your ear TOO close to that wall...........

I can never decide whether a Roomba should be a dance or a dessert. Certainly they don't sound like a cleaning robot.

Yes. Unfortunately they make Solyent Green. Not really ideal to have about the house.

How come they've time to clean if they twitter? Perhaps if they every threaten us, we can just give them a few threads here in MR, and that'll stop them (hey, it's more humane than organising them into a committee...)

If I came home and found etchings on the floor like that, I'd throw both of the Roombas off the balcony.

Luckily, it said I was in the healthy weight range (barely, lately, darn girl scout cookies...), and I was actually balanced (my friend never is, not sure how I was...), but when I did the "fit test" to see my age, it said I was a good 15 yr older than I am! I'm in my 30s, but it put me in my 50s! Geez, how can leaning over to each side as quick as you can judge your fit age? wth is that about? I don't drink (much) and I don't smoke, and I have pretty healthy habits... I'm just not graceful. So add a few decades??

In my experience, the 'Age' measurement is pretty inaccurate to start with, and comes down quite dramatically after the first few days - not because you're that much fitter, but because your technique improves as you get familiar with the tests.
