@ruth_mottram@fediscience.orgI would add that IME robot vacuum cleaners are a bit of a gimmick, they're good at hard smooth floors but rubbish with rugs and you can't do under the sofa cushions, dust bookshelves or deal with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling.

Es ist z.B. gut, dass ich einfach in die Kamera gucken kann und mich nicht ständig umdrehen muss.
