In relation to dirt and hair, the bin is huge; more than large enough to hold what's on the typcial floor. There's no question it works, you can see what it picks up. We keep a rather clean house in the first place, so it never comes close to filling up the bin. We use it to keep the floors clean of pet hair and tracked-in dirt during the week, between weekend vacuuming.

I love my Roomba!!! Use it exactly as you do. Love Scooba too until it just stopped, won't even turn on.

I have 2 large dogs and although Rottweiler hair always seem to be everywhere it doesn't touch the dust from my African Grey. They actually make dust.. It keeps them water repellent. I vacuum 3 times a week. I am actively looking for a home for her. Had her 15 years, won't let me pet her (likes men) and I will not have that dust all inside my cabin. She deserves to be with someone who can handle her and that's never been me. That will get me down to 2 dogs, 1 parrot, and one kid!!

I do that too, I put the attachment on and vacuum Puggy and she doesn't mind it at all.

I need to invest in a hand held vacuum for the couch.

Not much. Biggest problem is that with 4 cats and two long-haired humans, I have to cut hair off the brushes every time it runs. Well every time it ran, because it only lasted 3 months or so Gets a "POS" rating from me.

This is why I want a dog that doesn't shed that much.

Growing up I thought it was normal for you mom to vacuum twice a day.
