Hi Shawn! My robotic vacuum also goes under the couch too. I have to have somebody help me charge it up every so often. The best time to use it I think is when I'm out of my apartment for awhile doing something, and then when I get back, I check it to see how it did, and if it vacuumed everywhere and I also check to find out if it missed anything.

It works pretty well and didn't need any setup. I just push the power button and then I push the clean button. It works on both carpet and hard floors. The best part is that it goes under the couch!

After that do you just charge it up and let the little guy run? Will one set up do both carpet and hard surfaces? What about moving it from upstairs to down?

I set it up to vacuum my whole apartment whenever I go out of my apartment for grocery shopping or something. My sister helps me set it up, because it's kind of tricky. I really like the blind handy man show a lot. Sometimes I help my sister Jenny do yard work, and when I move into a condo probably next year, I won't have to do any yard work because there are professionals who do yard work in condos. Like I said earlier in this post, I love the coverage on the blind handyman show and I'm very proud to be a part of this list.
