My roomba changed my life. Having one of those is essential now with 2 dogs.

Oh hell yes.

I work from home, in the basement. Getting a roomba meant I didn't have to vacuum, but I did have to pick stuff up off the floor.

So now one 15 minute break is tidying and starting the vacuum. The next is cleaning the vacuum out and organizing dishes, while a third is doing the dishes and sometimes minor dinner prep.

My wife gets to come home to a clean house and I get to do it all on the clock so it's done when I'm done with work. Total life changer.

TRUTH. It still gets you off your ass to make sure the floor is tidy and ready and puts me in the mood to do other general cleaning.

Am I the only one who doesn't mind vacuuming? I'm in a 1 bdrm apartment so maybe thats why, but it's by far my "favourite" chore.

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Some people surely do like it. I personally can’t stand it. I’d rather do dishes or laundry

Yes! You'll see that other parts of the house look dirty and just dust a little, put a few things away, organize...

It's surprisingly effective to have a little robot buddy!
