OMG. I could watch it all day. I got the Roomba 650, which docks itself after it's done or when low on battery. So far, it has been docked each morning and the dust bin has stuff in it so it must be working! He did get trapped under a toilet, which was embarrassing for him so I stuck giant Command adhesive hooks to the floor under the toilets so he'd bump into them. Our kitchen floor is already looking fresh and lovely each morning. Yay.
