I had one of these, I didn't use it much it was just collecting dust so I got rid of it.

Maybe you should try reading the comments before you post and maybe you will be enlightened by an answer.

Does this deal suck or what?

I bought this a few months ago with my rakuten points. It doesn't return to its base automatically. It doesn't have a base just a normal charging cable. You choose the size room you have (small, medium, large - I normally just opt for medium) and off it goes. It doesn't fall downstairs as it recognises they are there and it bounces off objects/sides/skirting boards/my kids. It manages to go under beds and under sofas but cannot manage corners or straight along sides dues to its shape. Fine on carpets or hard floors. Doesn't much like rugs (fine once on them but sometimes has trouble getting on as it wants to suck the edges up - really doesn't like our door mat). Does a good job (but needs regular emptying as has a small bin) for a quick clean round. I have 2 kids so when they've dropped crumbs everywhere I set this off. I also put it on in the bedrooms when I leave for work. It doesn't need programming for room size/dimensions which for me is a plus and I find it normally manages the whole room/area despite what appears to be a random way of moving about.

There is a vent on the top so it both sucks and blows at the same time!

i got mine for £74.99 through Hughes with a discount voucher.

confusious say cheap crap.
