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'âbasically 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.

Congrats, robot vacuums! You now outperform my will to pick up socks but still crash harder than my Wi-Fi when it sees a charging cable. AI can dodge popcorn but canât save dignity from laundry day fails.
Buying a vacuum that recognizes poop now? Meanwhile, I can't even get my Alexa to understand me when I say 'turn on the lights.' Progress, right?
