Robot Vacuums: More Brain Power Than Your Socks, Still Trips
Welcome to the future where robot vacuums have as many quirks as your dog! The Tapo RV30 Max Plus, priced around $300, packs 'room-specific cleaning, carpet boost, smart navigation, and an auto-empty dock'ābasically a cleaning Swiss Army knife, minus the personality. Don't get cocky, though; its 'short battery life' and 'basic obstacle detection' mean your poor socks and charging cables remain its mortal enemies. Meanwhile, the Roborock S8 Plus flexes with '6,000Pa suction' and sonic mopping that vibrates floors cleaner than your anxiety after an Amazon deal. High tech meets domestic chaos, all for less than a nice dinner.
