Sorry to be dense as a person with a really dumb home, but you seem to be saying that a house without Wi-Fi can’t use a roomba? Can that be true?

With the Neato, it can still be used, but you'd lose all of the mapping features in the app. It'd take away no-go zones, which are tremendously helpful in making these useful in a lot of homes.

You have to apply for a religious exemption, I hear its really hard to get, even the Amish have a hard time getting one for their roombas.

I think that could definitely be true at this point, though I don’t know for sure. Who has $1000 for a smart robot vac but not wifi?

It may well be true of some models, no?
