How to get your husband to do more housework - buy him a robotic floor cleaner! It is a cute little flying saucer with an electrostatic pad on the underside. It tootles round the floor picking up dust and dog hair (and frightening the dog.) Mike has played with it all weekend.
It is only for hard floors, but as we have no carpets it is great.

85867We bought a small Dyson and hubbie loves it. Does the vacuuming all the time with it. And the cats like it much better than the big Dyson.
as for pets and the robotic vacuums - try looking for them on YouTube - saw one last year with a cat sitting on the vacuum as it was doing its job. The cat apparently thought it was a great toy.

The vacuum cleaners are very expensive but the electrostatic ones are much cheaper here. Mine is a Virobi.
173693My Daughter has a Roomba like Chris' mum. She loves it. Sets it up when she goes out and the vacuuming is done when she comes home. She keeps telling me I need one. Maybe one day. Marg
24826My hubby bought himself a cordless vac (the ones with a dust buster in the middle and a swivel head) he loves using it all over the house to tidy up he recons the best $100 he ever spent, mind you we only went out to get a carpet sweeper.. But if he's happy I'm certainly not going to complain..
45918I couldn't get one of these little jewels. A friend has one and whenever I go visit I have to play it's such fun. lol
35301Good on Mike, Trevor does all the vacuuming for me as I have carpal tunnel issues - well that is my story and I'm sticking to it!!!!!!!
The picture below is the one my Mum has, my sister bought it for her last Christmas as it does pet hair. Mum absolutely loves it. She has carpeted floors throughout the house except for the kitchen, bathroom and laundry tiles. Luckily for her it goes over every floor surface. Love Chris

Yes, you are right Sue. This is a vacuum cleaner. I'd love one of them. I didn't realise until I re-read your post that your room cleaner has an electrostatic pad underneath it. At least it does collect the animal hair/fur.
234498Does it pick up threads etc? More time for sewing .Now if they could only invent something to suck up dust.
25212My niece enjoys hers so much, she bought one for her daddy, for Christmas last year or year before,I forget. He is single, so it works well for him.
109780I have one for carpets and it is the best thing I have ever bought. I cannot cope with the sound of a vacuum cleaner. Hubby used to have to do the cleaning when I went out. Now we can both be at home and in the house while the floors are being cleaned. Glad you like yours. Have not heard of the one for hard floors here in Australia. If I do that will be on the wish list. Hugs Shirley
52686Do hope the novelty does not wear off, and he continues this task.Giving you more time for what you enjoy. Sandra.
24331Kudos to you and to the robotic floor cleaner. We had one and as soon as my husband had it set up, he lost interest. I'm so glad that Mike's interest in it lasted longer than my husband's lasted. I miss mine, but it couldn't keep up with all of the moves we made.

I think I saw it at exit 227 South on I-75 a few hours ago. I think it's on the right path.
169064mine slips up onto the carpet but still works well .Mr.Peeko don't like it and neither does hubby.He is afraid he will kick it or step on it but so far so good lol hugs
360644Have to teach your cats how to ride on it. Ellen has had videos of cats and babies riding on them. Hear there great!

This one can't be the same - anything heavier than a big spider would be too heavy!
