We have too many levels for a robot cleaner but we do have Bob our robot mower.

Fricking love Bob.

Mine is called Rufus ❤️

Rocky robot with his big googley eyes 👀
I love him. One of the best things we’ve bought.

Yes, DS name him Jelly

I really think we need to get a robo hoover reading this thread. 💯 if we had one it would have a name (a lot of things have names in our house). A friend of mine has a robo lawnmower which her husband got which she absolutely hates as it freaks her out, I think it's called Ellen Ripley because it makes her think of Alien.

Dirty Barry here😁

mrsbyers · 06/08/2022 19:06

Yep Eugene

Ok, has anyone any suggestions for any of these aptly named robots please? Budget is around £180. Thank you x

Dajeeling · 06/08/2022 19:08

This is my dad’s name- although the dirty prefix is inspired- so mine shall be called Dirty Bob 😂😂

Madhairday · 06/08/2022 19:09

Bob. We love Bob.

Joolsin · 06/08/2022 19:11

Another Bob here (although, to be fair, I call everything that requires a name Bob, whether animate or inanimate)

Vincent - like the cute robot from the film The Black Hole

heymammy · 06/08/2022 19:16

Ours is Declan...as in "deck clean" 🤣

MaraScottie · 06/08/2022 19:17

Hoovie

Aspergirl77 · 06/08/2022 19:17

Ours is Wall-E, like the Disney robot!

Mine is Bob Mow-Timer. As in Vic and Bob.

StarlingsInTheRoof · 06/08/2022 19:21

Bob. Kids came up with it. I wanted a male name so that it's not only females who do the cleaning. It had to have a name so we can say thank you. Otherwise it's essentially slavery.
