Thumbs up

I guess every basset owner has swept a fair share of hairs,
they tend to shed a lot - and almost all the time.

Now my days of sweeping have ended! :P
I've bought a robot!

It's not only sweeping the floor, it will do the windows, the laundry,
cook and even entertain at the dinner table! I think the seller said
so, even though I'm still reading the manual to find out how to use
all facilities.

And the dogs love the robot:

Hummmmm!! It looks like a great exerciser as well for Emma and Doris, as they follow it around. You'll have to call it "Connie"! I do sweeping the floor, windows, laundry, cook, and entertain at the dinner table. Of course, Bogie, helps, too!!

Steinar, your floors are beautiful! Seriously!

Not as lovely as Emma and Doris, of course, but really nice!

After consulting the manual for hours, I have to admit that this
Robomop just sweep the floors. And it will use one hour to do
the same you would do with a vacuum cleaner in 5 mins... <_<

It will deposit hairs every time it stops towards a carpet, and also
sometimes when changing directions abrupt. Some of the dust and
the hairs will fasten on the mop, but most is just pushed around on
the floor.

But, it's amusing, it's cheap and it's normally never stucked - I just
hope Emma won't stump on it - that'll be the end of it

And it's a Norwegian invention! :P

No Connie, it's called the Janice!

At least in this house.

BTW, I wonder if that contraption is like a roombah here? My friend spent a fortune on a roombah and her two shedding dogs (not bassets) broke the thing in a week. From all the dog hair. :P
