Your blog too many temptations...grrrHaha where got many temptations? I have just bought 2 items from TB so far!My review for the vacuum may take slightly longer now due to unforeseen reasons.But from fellow RT bloggers who have bought and used it, it seems pretty value for money. Works the same as the more expensive brands, able to program timing, will return to the charging dock after finishing vacuuming but judgement on obstacles wise maybe a little lacking - so will bang onto stuff once in a while. Oh, and it looks cute running around the house. For first time users, we may end up watching it just operate for the first time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
