Our Robot is here!

We have to charge it overnight for the first time so there had not been an opportunity to test run it much, except when AN's itchy fingers decided to make friends with the button that says "Clean" and the robot started moving out of its dock and wandered around the house a little.

It's so cool!!! I can't say anything about its functionality yet but I can't wait to formally introduce it to its new workplace. Just it being able to go back on its own impressed us enough! Muahaha! I forgot this one that I bought doesn't come with an additional bigger bin like the one in the Pet Series has. Oh well, I don't suppose (cross my fingers) there's going to be so much fur with everyday cleaning from now on so the small bin SHOULD be good enough. It should, right?

Mr Liow wanted to name the robot and I thought we should start naming it starting with the letter "W". We'd then have a complete B.M.W. Mr Liow wanted it to be a male robot coz our family "Yin Sheng Yang Shuai" (predenominantly females). It didn't matter, as long as it doesn't clean like the male species (you noe what I mean??). Any suggestions? We can just call it (him) "W", can't we? hehe.

Baileys and Maen have seen the robot do its (his) thing and all Baileys did was smell it a little. Maen didn't even seem to find it (him) interesting at all. I hope both of them will accept W as part of our family from now on and let it (him) do its (his) job in peace. AN on the other hand, couldn't wait to get it (him) to move! We had to keep reminding her to not touch it (him) or distract her from trying to get it (him) to move out of its (his) parking lot before it (he) is prepared to.

Mr Liow has already warned BM not to eat up W. I'm sure they won't ;p And he caught AN trying to stand on it because she remembered it could move on its on! I sure hope she doesn't decide to take piggyback rides on "W" while it (he) works!

Anyway, here are some pictures of our new member! Let welcome...*drum rolls* "W" (and the little human who can't get her hands off her new pet, sibling, playmate...or whoever she decides it to be)





Open Sesame!

This is a Virtual Wall. There are 2 in the box (and with the promotion now, we get another one). These virtual walls work like walls to prevent the robot from stepping out of wherever we set as boundary so that it (he) does a proper job of cleaning before he does get out.

See? Quite handsome hor? Black Knight. hehe.

P.S: If it (he) doesn't clean like a female, I'm going to have it (him) go through a gender transformation (verbal). Not as if it is going to help if it (he) really can't do a good job though..Oh well.. hehe.

Would love to know if it really does a good job or not.
