Now I'm really curious as to what's in the package they're sending you. Maybe you don't want to set the new one for automatic vacuuming. How is Biscuit? Has she recovered from her traumatic experience? I'm sure you haven't. Sorry, it's just too funny.

Bleah.<br />I'm not overly keen on dog crap, so I don't envy you the job of cleaning it up, that's for sure.<br />So much for "smart technology".

So, once I got my Mardi Gras befuddled noggin wrapped around the Ruumba story, it occurs to me to wonder about the guys at the mail room at the Ruumba H.Q. Do you suppose they just sniff the outside of the box, toss it in the corner after verifying the presence of an RMA, and OK sending a replacement, citing an accidental incursion into fecal contaminants, or, do they have to open the box and attempt to fire it up, first? Either way, a smart company won't tell you to blow it off, given the potential for big bucks damages. Never met a lawyer yet it paid any heed to "not responsible or indirect or consequential damages" clauses when suing.<br /><br />Good luck. You do know the hardware store rents steam cleaners, right?Wilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14834993203690623780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192913928006796095.post-26984284433677032352014-03-06T01:55:35.307-06:002014-03-06T01:55:35.307-06:00Most large corporations have an employee whose job...Most large corporations have an employee whose job is to check social media for mention of their product. So, you are probably correct. You would think this smart machine would have some type of automatic shutoff, a moisture sensor. If this happened to me, I may have to replace all of the carpeting.
