Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I vacuum regularly but because I have pets, I need to Swiffer every couple of days or else a layer of fur builds up on my hardwood floors. I decided to give this a try and it works well for me. The long cycle lasted 2.5 hours when I tested it. It's not a Roomba, so don't expect a vacuum cleaner. It's not the Mint, so don't expect anything advanced or smart from it. It's simply a moving Swiffer-type cleaner that grabs small items like dust and pet/human hair. Don't expect it to pick up anything bigger and your expectations will be realistic. This does not replace a vacuum cleaner or actual sweeping by a thinking and seeing person, but it's good to leave on to do its stuff in between cleanings to get some pet hair off the floor without effort. It will get stuck in some areas like elevated edges, rugs, wires, and tight corners, so it probably won't be that effective left on when leaving the home. A great tool for those who are not expecting this to turn this world upside down. It's $25 bucks, not a $400 Roomba or a $250 Mint, so let's be realistic. It's a cleaning toy that actually works. I posted a video (don't mind the sock bumpers around it, I created that because my wife does not enjoy it bumping lightly off objects) of it at work to show how well it goes underneath furniture. It does really well cleaning under the bed! Will post updates as time goes by. Update 7/31/14. This little machine is still going. I run it daily and it has significantly reduced the build-up of dust and pet hair on my floors. Vacuuming under beds, couches, and cabinets is much easier because there is pretty much no accumulation of dust there since the O-Duster loves to go underneath furniture and take care of that back-breaking task. Sometimes the motor goes around in circles, but that just means the wheels need to be cleaned or it needs to warm up. Again, it's a $24 cleaning robot, so keep your expectations low and you will be satisfied. I turn over the cleaning pads to maximize their use. Still swearing by this, though I'm curious to see how long it will last. Will keep posting updates. :) Update 10/1/14. Still working well with daily use! Sometimes when it's not moving as it should, I check the wheels to see if anything is stuck and and clean them. If it spins in circles that means something is off in the wheels and just needs adjustment. I've gotten so much use out of this cheap machine and haven't Swiffered since June. That alone is worth the $24. Happy with this. Update 2/19/15 - Still working well! If it starts to move randomly, just clean the wheels and it's good as new. Well worth the money. Update May 2015 - This device finally died. RIP. I was thinking of replacing it but they raised the price to $40+ and I didn't think it was a worth that much. I got an iRobot Braava instead on sale for $130 and use that daily instead. Would still get this for $20 though.
