Troubled robot vacuum-cleaner maker iRobot, abandoned by Amazon after regulators effectively doomed the web giant's takeover offer, has warned investors it may not survive the next 12 months.

Sounds like you don't have a thick furred dog that sheds multiple coats throughout the year.

We got a roomba as a gift and it has saved so much effort of sweeping/vacuuming the excess of fur on the floors.

Love my husky but damn...

Yeah, people complain about roombas not giving a super deep clean… But they’re really not intended to do so. They’re meant to be a daily maintenance clean. They may not be great for when you dump an entire can of coffee grounds in your carpet… But they’re wonderful when you have a big dog with lots of fur that needs to be vacuumed every single day.
