I have to admit that we (mr. ginger and I) don't like vacuuming too much. It's annoying and tiring especially in summer when weather here is so incredibly hot...

So, we've bought Roomba



and iRobot that vacuums by itself, notices obstacles (more of less) and it's quite funny to look at while it's cleaning. It isn't perfect. It doesn't clean as a person with a vacuum cleaner will do it, but makes a good job, we've tried since we got a 7 days trial to decide if we keep it (and we're going to).

First time we saw one of these was a couple of years ago but it was so expensive that we couldn't afford it. This one is a lot of cheaper although it isn't the one we saw, but after a lot of only checking and asking people who had one, we decided it was good for a try. We're pretty happy with the result.

baby ginger got scared of it the first time he saw it moving and working, but now he's really curious about it and every time is on, the baby goes to take a look but from afar and when it's charging he dares to climb on top of it and push its buttons (really cute but something he can't do and we have told him so ;))

Anyway, the company has a lot of Robots, not only for vacuuming but also for floor washing, pool cleaning and workshop cleaning.
