[Blindtlk] Keeping House Independently

[Judy Jones]

I forgot to answer your first question.  She does like hers, but says it can 
also get stuck.

How does your daughter like hers? I like mine very well and the first time I 
got it almost 3 years ago now my mother came over cause she wanted to watch 
it work. She was so impressed she went out and bought one of her own.

I start upstairs with the Rumba by and it's charger and I let it do its work 
it parks itself when it's done. And then I move it to the next area  I want 
to clean and repeat  the procedure until it's battery dies it takes about 
four hours for it to
.

Very cool.  My daughter has one of those.  How well do they work?  How long 
do you leave one on to prowl the room?  Does it go from room to room, or how 
does it work?

Thanks.

Hi Christine,

It's all what you feel comfortable with. You've gotten a lot of really good 
advice from a lot of the other people. From my perspective I bought a Rumba 
because I had to two dogs,  a  guide dog and a retired dog and two cats in 
the house and I wanted to vacuum my house a minimum of once a day preferably 
twice and I didn't want to take the time to do that. So the Rumba was an 
absolutely fabulous solution for me. Find out what you're comfortable with 
and go for it.

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to get your opinion about keeping house independently. I used 
to have someone come in once a month just to help with things I may have 
missed, but I am debating whether to do this still or not. I did get some 
rehab training with cleaning, but I am not the best at it. My main hangup is 
using a broom, as I just can’t figure out how it is done. I just invested in 
a Swiffer so I hope that helps.

I was wondering if you keep house independently, or if you have someone 
sighted come in once in a while to make sure things are kept nicely and are 
not dirty. Thanks so much for your thoughts.

Christine
