I have a neato botvac. Great device but it has some serious flaws. The biggest one in my opinion is a lack of long-term memory. It gets stuck in the same places every time, every day. I wish there was a way to simply speak to it and say "don't go there" - and it would remember it next day. It could use Alexa or Siri to do that. The robot also needs the floor to be cleaned from socks, cables and whatever before it can work, but I suppose that is the same for a manual vacuum, and it's not all bad that these things have to be removed. If the robot could be smart enough to not digest cables and socks, it would be better but for me it's not a dealbreaker. The furniture humping is really bad. The robot will find a chair it likes and keep humping it until a human intervenes or the battery runs out. Again, the device should have a long-term memory and learn about places and things to avoid next day.
