iRobot Roomba Sage 4105 Vacuum (Robotic, Bagless)

I have to say.. I'm not one to believe in labor-saving gadgets simply on their marketing hyperbole. My wife had seen one at a friend's house and was curious. Assured by the friend of it's abilities, we got the 4105 with docking station and virtual wall. My first impressions were... "hey... I can walk around the house without cereal and whatnot that the kids dropped sticking to my feet". SOLD! We named it "NotSarina" and she cleans the kitchen, family-room and halls easily with one charge before returning to recharge. The virtual wall shuts itself off to save batteries. I empty the bin after every use and blast the filter with compressed air to help out. The modular design makes maintenance rear easy... though the plastic poker/cutter tool needs to be redesigned for real world poking and cutting. In all Roomba is the most awesome robotic gadget and we are getting another one for the upstairs. BTW it also teaches kids and adults to clean their small crap off the floor so "NotSarina won't choke and die".
