Hi, How does it do on edges and corners? And tile? If a dining room table has chairs positioned at the table, it can’t get underneath. So, if one removes the chairs on occasion to do a more thorough cleaning, is it smart enough to know at those times, without the chairs there, it should clean under the table, too?

Sand Tomkins has shared a file with you using Dropbox Sieghard, Hugh has taken the 'orrible pooch out for a run in the local ruined abby, but when he gets back, I will ask him for the square footage of the ground floor. As for timing, I can only guess, roughly an hour, but will time it tomorrow, always assuming no industrial relations problems with my new household slave (I speak of the robot, of course!). I should say that I had it set to "Turbo", which is the more intensive mode. Once you have your floors to your liking, I imagine, you could use the quicker and less battery intensive mode "eco". I know that you have no carpets in your house, whereas, I do have some rugs, little ones in doorways and a couple of larger, say, 6 by 8, or therabouts, and, I must say, it did a good job on them. Also, re noise, on Turbo,it is louder than on Eco, but I didn't find it at all loud, even when Hugh and I and dog were in the kitchen while it was working. When it did the utility room, I had thought it had forgotten it and so had started feeding the cat and the dog, it carried on working around them and me, in a really rather confined space. I am sure I will come across some glitches, but, so far, I am suitably impressed and I have had these things, in one form or another, for years! The app is very nice and seems totally accessible, think I will write to the owners, not only to request the implant which you so kindly suggested, but also to congratulate them on a job well done re accessibility!

Just out of curiocity, do you know how many square metres your floor is and how long did it take for it to do the six rooms?

Sand Tomkins has shared a file with you using Dropbox Hallo to any who were interested in the Robot Vacuum cleaners. Mine has arrived and I have made a couple of recordings: the first, lasting about half an hour, is just unboxing it. The second is my first experience using the Bot. In passing, I should say that I was very impressed with the way it dealt with my, somewhat, complex floor-plan. On our ground floor, we have 6 rooms, all interlinking. Apart from the kitchen, all have at least 2 doors, some have 3, not counting external doors. I left all the internal doors open, nevertheless, the BotVac did each room, not being tempted out of the room until it was finished. Ithought, when it had done 5 of the rooms and seemed to be heading home to the docking station, that it had missed the little utility room, Near to the back door, but, NO! it made its way there, back through 3 rooms, and did the last one. Once finished, it headed, unerringly, only banging its head a little on a treadmill, but not put off from its direct line to the docking station, where it backed into place, sang a song and sent me a message to my iPhone saying it was done! This hoover has better mobility than me! It walks into fewer things and has a great sense of which room it is in. I want a botVac hat!! Satisfied Sandy.
