Robot vacuums are a great addition to cleaning routines. They can help you get the day to day dust, hair, dirt, and pet hair. And those with mop attachments even help you keep the floors extra clean. They make less work for your weekly/monthly clean ups.

Any tool that helps you get a job you don’t like done more often and keeps things cleaner and healthier is a great tool in my book!

Do you have a robot vacuum? Do you like it? If you don’t, would you ever buy one or, do you prefer a little DIY?

    My robot is not on the list but, Valetudo is an opinionated software solution for cloud-free vacuum robots installed on thousands of robots. Since it was started in 2018, it has matured to a reliable fire-and-forget solution that just works.

    That was copied from their website. In short, more privacy for your robot vacuum if it’s on the list.

      Shout out for Valetudo. The manufacturers’ solutions are just too intrusive for me.

      I only buy robot vacuums from the list and install Valetudo. It allows me to keep my privacy, have a clean home and be save from enshittification. On top, it’s very convenient that you don’t have to get used to a new app with every new robot.
