I ran my robot vacuum for the first time today. It did about 60% of my apartment, went back to its charging station and recharged, then did the rest of the place. Great. Except that when it finished cleaning it got lost and couldn’t find its way home for some reason.
Instead of turning to go back down the hall from whence it came, it turned the opposite way and went under my bed. Then it realized that wasn’t right, but then headed in another wrong direction. At this point I carried it back to the charger.
I had hoped that I could run it weekly while I am out of town, but if it can’t find its own way home, that isn’t going to work.
