I've literally always wanted a robo cleaner but I'm really not a fan of Appliances that send reports back to some creepy corpo. Does anyone have suggestions on where to start looking? All I'm finding is smart tech versions.

Nothing says you have to download an app or connect it to WiFi. I’m on my second one and it works fine without it.

Recently I've seen a few articles about someone isolating their vacuum and the company bricking it in response. I'd rather skip the fight than try to dodge the punch.
