Nobody wants to run a Roomba while they're still home, right?

Absolutely agree. My wife hates their noise so much, we run it once at weekend when go out. Or only in closed kitchen.

The noise really bothered me on our old model, but it broke recently and we replaced it with a different brand. I cannot believe how quiet the new one is. I think it's less powerful but it's worth it just for the noise. It's not just the suction that's quieter either, it also runs into walls/obstacles much less aggressively.

Might be something to look into when/if you decide to replace yours! There's probably a model out there that won't bug your wife as much.
