This is when the vacuum cleaner is allergic to chairs, and it must be either it, or them, or you need to periodically (always) separate them and keep them in different rooms.

Does your vacuum cleaner poke its nose into chairs and generally get entangled in such unpleasant situations? In theory, this situation can be easily managed with LiDAR on its head and algorithms in its rear, but someone did a poor job of testing.

Apart from this downside, it cannot operate on three floors. It still manages on two, but it jumbles the map of one of the three, which ultimately makes mapping useless in the case of a house.

On the upside – it recognizes stairs and doesn’t attempt suicide on the staircase. It has befriended the dog, which is more than can be said for manual Dysons and the washing Bissel.

All in all, despite such indecent incidents with chair legs, this robot vacuum is the best purchase of recent years. It works more than me and manages everything by itself.

Wish someone would hack it soon and create a Python interface. There would be so much to do – from detecting shoelaces to drawing beautiful patterns on the carpet.
