I’m looking for a vacuum robot preferably under 500€ and with a cleaning station. My main concern is that most robot vacuum providers seem to need to be connected to the internet.

Could we add alternativeto.net to the sidebar? (alternativeto.net)
It’s a great place to find alternatives (including opensource alternatives) to services and software.
Thoughts on Post-Open Source? (www.theregister.com)
TLDR: Companies should be required to pay developers for any open source software they use....
