Roomba for the Space

It’s come up many times as an aside “Why don’t we have/get/etc a Roomba for VHS”.

All too often the space goes un-swept and rather than putting up more signs to get promptly ignored, let’s get a robot to clean up after us - it is the future now apparently, after all! (Oct 21st 2015 baby)

Does anybody have a Roomba they would be willing to donate? Or know where we could/should/etc acquire one or two?

There are a few available on craigslist but if it happens that some members have some to get rid of or that need simple repair it might be more in our price range.

Even a broken one is good. I will fix it as I have a few replacement IR
emitters kicking around (that’s the part that always goes).

A neato is also good as they vac like a human and are easy to predict/avoid.

So, back when we were in the bunker, I donated both a Roomba and a Scooba,
which vanished after a few weeks.

Perhaps whomever liberated then could bring them back?

Were they working?

I recall seeing an obviously busted Roomba in the three-week bin at the
Bunker, but that does seem like the kind of thing that would commonly pass
through the three-week bin with our demographic.
