It’s been a few months now testing the @maticrobots vacuum cleaner Before we had a Roborock (essentially a Roomba knockoff) But the Roborock became kinda useless, it'd always get stuck in any type of cable, it'd always get stuck not being able to get on to the thick rug, so you'd have to prep the room every single time just to use it Too much work so we just stopped using it The Matic is, well, completely different. It's not flat or low, it's a chunky tall kinda cute looking cube shaped thing with 2 big wheels And it's a different philosophy, it has cameras and tries to understand its environment, more like a modern robot or a self driving Tesla than a classic Roomba-type vacuum That makes it just way way better, it doesn't get stuck in cables, it doesn't get stuck in rugs, it drives and turns around the room almost like a mini car It's also way more silent than Roborock or Roomba-type vacuums, and measurably way more powerful in both vacuuming and mopping They also respond very fast to feedback and improve things fast, like companies should be these days (instead of getting stuck in some hellish corporate support flow) Another thing, I don't trust consumer devices connected to the internet (and nor should you) so of course I asked to Claude to analyze if it was phoning home (remember the other vacuums who upload your house plan to China, that was true). Claude was conclusive, Matic never phoned home anything, excellent Maybe the best part is, it just looks cute and you wanna anthropomorphize it, and they include 2 googly eye stickers so it becomes even more like a dog/cat/pet @mehul made a great thing!
