Oh what a wonderful job I've got.

many people, including myself, have been persuaded, even brainwashed into thinking

We are using the world's resources at an alarming rate and all this materialism and consumerism won't last forever.

Exactly!

I do agree with the overall sentiment it's a very sad world we live in nowadays.

As for Robovacs - anyone that's bought one of those, needs to seek help (and I don't mean a cleaner).

What's so bad about the Robovacs?
Our vacuum broke just over a year ago, we replaced it with a Shark which was CFU and lasted one year and a week before completely stopping, thank goodness it was from John Lewis and had a 2 year warrantly so got a refund.

We have 2 black labradors and light coloured tiled floor in a large'ish kitchen living area and 10 mins after hoovering it's covered in dog hair again (slight exaggeration) ..... and thought one of these might be a good idea?

Everything.
A pure style over substance product.

Think about everything that makes a vacuum cleaner good at its job.
Now think about that little piece of clever technology - good only for novelty value.

I may be biased, as my first job was for a Hoover service agent - dealing with original, 'proper' metal jobs - with continuous, full width floor brushes.
Most now have pathetic little tufts of bristles for brushes. True, bagless designs now have better suction - but the Robovac won't have the sweeping ability, suction or capacity....then it needs charging.

I wouldn't have one if it cost £5.

Hey, those hoovers were responsible for one of the best cat videos on the internet. That’s gotta count for something.

What’s Henry ever done, except be used to look like a class A drug user?

If Henry was a class A drug user .... maybe I should consider trying some as he was F**_^g good at what he did

Funnily enough, I can't see the back panel! However, I will let you know when it finally dies (after many years of service) and we have to get it out.

Incidentally, the tune it plays when the wash finishes has to go!!!

I quite like that little tune it plays. You can cancel the tune, although I've never bothered. It's fine by me.

Well @Witterings dogs are probably a bit big for a ride, but a Robovac might amuse them

...on the bright side - it's nearly summer

Summer! Yes! Warmer rain! Woohoo!
