You’ve obviously never owned a dirt ingesting shark robot vacuum. There are hundreds of thousands of Americans who’ll pay $75/mo for unlimited repairs and maintenance and never having to worry about if the toddler takes the vacuum cleaner for a tumble down the stairs.

I'm on my second roomba in well over a decade. I don't remember what happened to the first one, I think I gave it away in a move, but it didn't break. I don't know anything about the shark brand but I've never really thought twice about repair problems with roomba or heard about issues from friends. Obviously a small sample size, but this is something I don't get as a subscription.

That said, Matician's vision mapping looks really cool.
