Any recommendations on robot vacuum cleaners? For both sweep/mop and mapping functions. I'm a ftm with baby due soon in a month's time, have 2 dogs at home and will not have any help around after the CL leave. Thanks in advance.

I use irobot. That's the originator of robotic vacuum cleaners and they sometimes are on promotion at Robinson. I recall they've a model with a larger waste bin for pets too. The technology behind irobot came from the US to scan minefields. It scans the area under coverage and moves in a haphazard manner with an algorithm to ensure no area is left untouched and gone through more than once. Cleaning can take awhile though. 1hr for a 5 room hdb flat but we don't mind since it's doing all the work and not me. My irobot has been surviving well for the past 5 years.
