Wash their sheets and pillow cases. Also vacuum. Dust mites are not healthy to have around.
Roomba is a lifesaver.
Agree. I thought they were overrated until we got one. They are like pets that clean. Ours has a cute punny name.
What’s it’s name? I named mine “Mr. Roombastic”
That is fantastic

Domo arigato, Mr. Roomboto
Ditto. Ours is called Tony, after the character Suckboy Tony from American Dad.
Mine is called Compsognathus. He's my little scavenger and fits with a bunch of my Jurassic Park memorabilia.
Mine is super unreliable, plus what takes him 2 hours, I can get done in 30 minutes.
That's 30 minutes that I don't have to spend vacuuming.

Agreed. Apparently some people have issues with it but ours has been running pretty steadily every morning for the last 1.5 year or so. At some point the charging contacts were a bit dull and it started giving errors but otherwise the maintenance is minimal.
Oh but I can heavily recommend buy extra filters and when doing a bit more thorough clean of the dustbin just vacuum out the filter with another strong vacuum, or slap it on the floor a couple times to really get the dust out. Doing this and the suckpower increases tremendously and it also seems to more efficiently pack the dust in the bin by just having stronger suction, i guess
Robot vacuums are great, but my Roomba is incredibly unreliable. I’m buying Roborock next time.

My robot vacuum gets triggered any time I leave the house. Go out for dinner? Go to work? Grab coffee? Come back to a vacuumed house.

I know it's better than nothing, but the reason I haven't bothered to get one is that the vacuum guy on Reddit made me a solid believer in German bagged vacuums like Sebo. Almost everything else is exhausting dust everywhere it goes.
