Wolvie's right - my inlaws have one that mows the lawn. Inlaws love it, their dog's not so sure!

They're ok, but not so good round corners, or over cables and rugs with fringes!!!

My inlaws have got one and love it. I don't think it would be much good in my house though as there are always sports bags, computer bags, bandy sticks etc on the floor.

They're about 40cm in diameter and about 10cm high. They have a docking station that they get charged up in too.

You could do upstairs and downstairs at the same time!
Might be good for me as a hoover would save the skirting boards and furniture!
No good for the garden my husband has a "thing" about his grass. He like it in lines, needs to be straight! Dont know why
Years ago I made myself an outfit, dressed up for when he came home.
A bottle of Newcastle brown Ale as a top, front and back.
A grass skirt.
A dogs ears, tongue and tail.
He asked what on earth I was I doing? I asked what he noticed first!
My eldest son in school in show or tell said that his Mummy dressed up for Daddy getting home
Whaaa I was so

when they told me!!
Oh its made me laugh thinking about it!

No didnt take a photo!

Should have it took ages!
NL I had a beer but it just made me think... I dressed up to see what he noticed first! Grass, Newcastle Brown or look a like dogs!
Made my point. Saved having an argument mind!

My husband would hate the grass being cut in whatever fashion. He likes it cut in lines!
Beta Max?
