Robot vacuum cleaner escapes from Cambridge Travelodge.

"Today we had one of our new robot vacuums run for its life," the assistant manager wrote.

"They normally sense the lip at the entrance [to the hotel] and turn around, but this one decided to make a run for it."
The automated cleaner failed to stop at the front door of the hotel in Orchard Park in Cambridge on Thursday, and was still on the loose the following day.

Staff said it just kept going and "could be anywhere" while well-wishers on social media hoped the vacuum enjoyed its travels, as "it has no natural predators" in the wild.

The staff posted the story of the robot vacuum's great escape on social media, asking for it to be returned, if found.

Luckily, it was found under a hedge on Friday and now back sitting happily on a shelf with the rest of its robot vacuum family. :D

The robotic world is going too far, not for me. While reading the link I found this info on a man who uses his 72 yr old toaster every day.

I can still see the old toaster that my family used before the one above came along. Oh here is a one made by Westinghouse and we had one very much like this. My family was a Westinghouse family,
MOST appliances were Westinghouse made......Made in USA.
