Neato XV-21 Pet and Allergy Robotic Vacuum $290 FS WMT

Own XV-12 and I am very happy with it.

They are all basically the same thing except the 21 has differ brushes. I have had a roomba and now have the 12. It's be far superior, the roomba just bounced around for like ever and then somehow covered stuff...this thing does neat lines...I can only compare it to a lawnmower on a lawn. Perfect lines in the carpet.

You will be amazed with it....it's almost like it can see. My wife is anal with cleaning and she barely uses our vacuum anymore..

Don't forget 5% shopdiscover and 5% cash back for online shopping

Quote from Sunday : You are supposed to pay it whether or not they "charge" it. Read your tax book.

LOL. They take enough from folks at gunpoint. Anyone thinking people will voluntarily give more is living in a fantasy land. (Not saying you are. Definitely saying the politicians are.)

Agree

Bought one of these a few months ago love it

Love neato!

Quote from rbreding : Spoiler alert. In order to enjoy the lower capital gains tax you must have already paid normal income tax on that money at some point. So you are paying tax twice. So thank Romney for paying taxes twice.

Sad, most people don't know that....they only hear and believe what they want.

(You may want to change your last sentence as it sounds like you were blaming Romney for that and not thanking him for paying his taxes, in effect, twice.

There's no risk. It's all off topic and bs.

Yes you're supposed to pay sales tax regardless. In practice many dont. Perhaps it should be set at a federal level and the same for all states.

Back to the deal - less politics.

As few people have mentioned, it says it doesnt have a battery. If that is the case, this is not a deal at all.

LOL. This is amazing. A robotic vacuum post turns out all these posts on taxes. But we've been paying the same taxes for the last few years. What's with the angst all of the sudden?

This is pretty tempting - dogs leave lots of hair around. But, I also have a hard time justifying $300 for a vacuum. My house vacuum was about $300, but it's a 10amp motor with some serious suction. I doubt this has quite the same.

It has a battery. It's internal. The description on Walmart is for items that need an external battery and whether or not it's included. This is a screamin' deal. You'd be silly not to buy it.

I have had a neato for a few months, I had a roomba but returned it after 2 weeks. I got the xv-21 off of woot.com for the same price. Worth. Every. Penny.

I have 2 cats and they are constantly shedding, every time this thing run's it picks up at least a quarter bin full of fur/dust. I had tried a roomba but returned it, it was slow and seemed to get lost too much. That being said, the neato still does get stuck unless i "neato-proof" my house. I pick up all the wires off the floor, and any throw rugs before running it. I also put up the chairs or pull them out sufficiently, and had to put shims under a few pieces of furniture to raise them up a half inch. For Example the neato would go under a dresser but get stuck because the furniture was a few mm to low at some spots.

Edit /*: I only raised the furniture by less than 1/8", not a half an inch. I cut up some old bar coasters layered them 2 thick, put a dab of glue and that's it. And I only had to do it to 2 things. */


Also it does a poor job on edging. It gets the bulk of the floor, but it doesn't really hit the edges of the room around walls or objects, it leaves about 2 inches worth of dirt along the perimeter of the room, so i still should clean the old fashion way once a week, of course i don't because i'm too lazy which is why i got the neato in the first place.

It seems to play well with my cats, occasionally it acts like it's stalking them which is kind of fun to watching after having a few. Even though the neato is MUCH MORE intelligent than the roomba, it does sometimes seem to get confused and it will do some rooms twice while only doing other rooms once.

All in all the neato is totally worth it and i highly recommend it.

anyone know how i can get this even cheaper? tried to pm to kohls and use the 30% but they said the item numbers dont match. tried to go to lowes and use a home depot coupon but they wont combine a pm and a coupon. any ideas?
