1: iRobot Roomba
These robot vacuums are a great addition to your home, with the ability to schedule cleaning times for example while your at work. I find my iRobot is actually very good at picking up dog and cat hair. It detects stairs, objects and comes with a “virtual wall” this can be placed in an area where you don’t want the vacuum to go and it will simply turn itself around and keep going. More info
