Robot vacuum opinions

My son got a Roomba, which was great at picking up dog hair. However the Roomba got stuck on the dog. He was a Newfoundland, so he just carried it around with him until someone came home and cut it off.
I have a Neato, a different brand. I like it because it goes about the room in a more structured way, so it takes less time to finish, but it is very loud. And lately it seems to think that its trash bin isn't inserted, when it is. My poodle doesn't shed, so I haven't had to deal with dog hair. One of the things I really like about it is that it cleans under the beds, where it's hard to reach.

Knowing how Newfoundlander dogs are, it would just ignore and carry on til they go there.
Yes, I am still laughing at this one!

My friend HAD one and 2 dogs. The dogs got fed too many fatty goodies on Thanksgiving so...when the roomba did it's cleaning thing that night, they had a wonderful surprise waiting for them the next morning. Needless to say after several hours of clean up the roomba found a new home.
