Nobody wants to run a Roomba while they're still home, right?

You run it at night, right? That's when we run ours. And we got a robot vacuum during the pandemic because suddenly we were on those floors so much more that we got them dirty more and noticed the dirt more.

You run it... at night??? What kind of fresh hell is this?!?

Mine runs Friday mornings at 430 am in case I have people over Friday night and again Monday morning at 430am to clean up after the weekend. The 3/4 day schedule works well for me. And 430 is perfect because I'm usually asleep when it runs and it's never worked me up so it never bothers me.

You must have some cheap model.

Mines extremely loud because it's so powerful. It'll suck the dick right off you, if you let it.

Say, how did you come across this information?

It was consensual.

Heyy friend, so when should I drop by to totally-not-checkout your robo-vacuum?

Exactly. We just have it scheduled to not clean our bedroom at night, it does that midday when we're using the rest of the house or ad hoc.

Granted we have tile floors outside the bedroom so it's quieter plus we run a floor fan at night for noise, so that's probably why we aren't bothered by the sound.
