LOL! Thank you for answering. They might as well make it too tall to run under the furniture that hides the power cords, but it sounds like the suction is so weak as to be useless anyway. Now I’m glad I never wasted the fundage on it.

It ate our long cat5. Big 50 ft one we had ran down the hall to cover the machines in the living room, and the Roomba took a nice big gouge out of the coating and opened it up to the bare cable underneath.

We also had our cats attempt to surf on it, but after not making it on or getting their tails ran over, they started shunning it as well.
