One of Scouted's writers waxed poetic (waxed robotic?) about how much she loves her Roomba in a recent post about the best home goods and appliances of 2018. "Having a Roomba feels like having a little robot dog who cleans up after you — I call him Roombi. I wasn’t sure how well the Roomba 960 would clean, but it really works. I use it often, and recommend it highly." Right now, you can get it while it's on sale on Amazon for $549. That's less than you would pay for a fancy Dyson upright vacuum, and you don't have to push it around and worry about waisting your valuable time cleaning. It's a great investment for any household.
