The two things with robot vacs is one cleaning the roller is to annoying. I think it would be best for it to be like a shop vac. Yeah it would not do as good a job but would be a good general cleaner and you don't have to mess with the roller sweeper. Two is a base station to auto empty the refuse bin. Honestly for the first part it maybe just better as an option. so you have one for more thorugh clean that will need more maint but no more than a standard vacc and one that is less maint and can pickup more types of stuff. Might be good just to have the shop vac type go first so that the roller type gets gunked up less.
