Can.... can you do that? I mean I've gotta hit the lottery first but... Oh this changes EVERYTHING! O_O

You also have to tell Alexa to play "Ride of the Valkyries"
Dougibert
That is a great idea. I now know what I want for Christmas.

I literally live for the day I'm able to do this

It needs to have “ride of the Valkyries” blearing in the background!

$21000 worth of shitty vaccum for a joke

24 Roombas? That'll be about 10k!
STGxDante
Someone needs to do this plz! I need the sound of cheap plastic greats grinding away as Alexa is barely heard confirming your command.
magerooster
Ride of the Valkyries starts playing?
DocZero
Playing "Flight of the Valkyries"
ellechim
Do they all have cats in shark costumes on them???
somethingsomethingwittyhere
Alexa, play Ride of the Valkyries, then unleash the Roombas.
SuicidalRubberDucky
Alexa, now play “Flight of the Valkyries”!

Instead of all under the bed, tuck them under every piece of furniture in the living room. "THEY'RE COMING OUTTA THE WOODWORK!"

Can Alexa actually control a roomba? I have a neato botvac and it doesn't have a remote I know of.
sqrtof2over2
Yes, Alexa can control a Roomba, and with IFTTT, you could easily trigger 24 at once.

I NEED a gif/video of this in action. I I will die with out it. DO you hear me OP? I NEED this!

I hear you son, let’s fundraise that
DarkAngelWarlord
Dress them up like viking warriors and play Ride of the Valkyries

This would cost about $6,680.

A roomba is like having a two year old vacuum your house.
silentwolf1999
Theyre good for dust control but no replacement for real vacuming
skribbly
I have 2 cats, my roomba really helps with hair control. I still need to clean for real once a week though.
NapAllDayPartyNever
they really wanna help but do more damage than good?
FortressCraft
BUT the 2-year old doesn't stop until it passes out.
I like mine, but it has eaten a small fortune in power cords, shoelaces, headphones, etc... and it usually gets lost or stuck somewhere
mglaive
That's why you get 24 of them. It's like having a 48 year old vacuum.
brownieblue
Does your roomba crap it's pants when it's under the table?
mkyner
....Is it not supposed to?
deamonsatwar
I thought they were for hard floor places and not good on carpets? They are amazing for pet hair control either way.
Skotias
I got a eufy and it's the best thing ever. We have hard wood floors, toddlers, and a bunch of pets.
AnnaDarko
I don't want to know what it would look like under our kitchen cabinets without our robot.
Fine on carpets. Most negative comments I've seen on Roombas are from people who don't understand the 'do a bit every day' approach.
ArmedandOverclocked
My Xiaomi does an awesome job, but it's also designed to take on the $1k price range of Roombas and Dysons.
epicstorybro
what modele
There's only the Mi Robot model at the moment
Order66wasAninsideJob
Actually they have a second gen now
did not know that. I just looked and i have the first model. The 2nd model does look promising though. I wonder what the reviews are like.
Heyo1
Cleaning crew would have been cheaper... but less awesome
QuiteADapperAsshole
Probably could pass with 5 secondhand, first gen roombas and an alexa knockoff and keep it under $500.
V1K1NGFVNERAL
Keeping a cleaning crew under your bed is frowned upon these days.
hearthstoneaccount3
market. Within 2-3 decades we "should" see this being fairly normal and human cleaners being out of work (Pray to Elon) 2/2
KeatonNayru
Ah, but you see the price of social interaction is much higher than a roomba, roombas don't care if you're not wearing pants.
Ssssssssssss
Wouldn't roombas have a lower upkeep than the pay for cleaners, eventually?
IBentMyWookie
But then you'd have to buy more lemon Pledge
kmikl
And you'd have to buy more weendex

No, you're supposed to bring that from home.

Technology always reduces in price with age, roombas are no exception they've already dropped significantly from when they 1st hit the 1/
I don't believe roombas were 900+ originally.
always going to be more expensive thats like complaining that harddrives are still the same price just because its 8k for 120TB
Depends on the model. The earlier ones have dropped to nearly 199-299 from what I've seen, knock offs in 99 range. Obviously newer are 1
All they did with the newer models is strap a cheap camera to the top and improve succ.
market share in my eyes but It will eventually happen as the technology IS coming down in price and slowly improving at that. 2/2
Improving the succ on a vacuum is kind of a important upgrade and all it really can do. As said it'll be 2-3 decades before significant 1/
