Why I no Longer Vacuum: Neato Robotic Vacuum Giveaway

You know the saying….. “If mama ain’t happy, then no body is happy” ?  I think most of us would agree that a dirty house can really stress us out and a clean house can make us a little more pleasant to be around {wink}.  So, when the people from Neato Robotics asked if I was interested in trying out their new XV-21 Pet and Allergy model, I jumped at the opportunity!

Why Consider using an Automated Robotic Vacuum?

I don’t know about you, but there’s nothing that pushes me over the stress level edge than my floors.  When the girls were little I vacuumed EVERY DAY.  We’ve always had dogs in the house so vacuuming the floors daily was the only way to keep me sane. 

Now that they are older, and our lives are busier, we are down to vacuuming once a week.  I’ve learned to live with that…..but it’s not my ideal.  A robotic vacuum gave me my happy back!  It does the vacuuming so I don’t have to.  Actually, I don’t even need to be home, or awake, while my floors are being cleaned.

How Does the Neato Robot Vacuum Cleaner Work?

It does what I don’t have time to do! — without me doing it (or paying someone to do it)!  To be honest, I was a little skeptical.   But,  I am here to tell you that this little power machine amazed me.  The XV-21 is specifically designed for households with pets and allergens, and  has higher airflow to pick up dirt and pet hair and reduce allergens in the home on a daily basis.

As soon as the Neato arrived at our house, I was ready to put it to work!  I took it out of the box and charged it (which only took about 2 hours for a full charge), then I let it to go crazy cleaning my carpets and tile! 

This first-of-its-kind mapping robot uses the laser-based positioning and path-planning system to keep track of what it has already cleaned and what it has left to clean. It cleans your home, using a simple back-and-forth straight line pattern so that it looks like you did the vacuuming yourself . It avoids bumping as much as possible because it can actually “see” an object and clean around it. And, it can pause mid-cleaning to re-charge its batteries and return to where it left off to finish vacuuming.

It lets me know when it’s finished vacuuming and returns to it’s charging base! (no need to babysit it!)

Watch this video to see how the Neato vacuum works! I’m just blown away by the job it does (do you think I’m going to need to give her a raise?)
