The iRobot one looks awesome because it doesn't require any kind of wire or anything. The yard I'd want to put it in is a big rectangle with 3 sides going right up to the fence. The house side had some decorative...uh.....flourishes, but pretty damn simple overall.

I don't mind mowing at all, but fresh cut grass every other day sounds pretty awesome if it works even half as good as the vacuums.

this guy has a good comparison w/ the worx and the husqvarna (1year ago i believe the husqvarna was the one to beat)

take aways of the worx are the oversized wheels, it's off center cutting blades (so it can cut to the edge), and really high depth adjustment

I live in a rural area. No curbs and no kids except my own. Fenced back yard....no where for the thing to go.

Well... Wife wanted a spin bike so... We got one I guess.

We weighed this vs the peloton and this one was nicer for what we want. Woman not

I turned half our basement into a gym. Low ceilings though so I can't do stuff like overhead presses. I also cant use our treadmill (Im 6'3"). Hopefully I can use the bike too... to justify the cost...

I need an ice maker. My refrigerator/freezer one has gone out twice and I'm tired of buying bagged ice. Only problem is most of the ones I see on Amazon make that strange shaped circle style and I want either small cube or Sonic style ice.

We've had our Peloton for over 2 years now. Can't say enough good things about it and all the classes for on and off the bike that come with the subscription

Good to hear. I hate running outside, because the roads here are so shitty I feel like I might break an ankle. Hoping I can get into spinning a bit for cardio.

This was basically the same price as peloton, within a couple hundred. Came down to the services offered and features

I agree. At least one slam session

I built our home gym last year, peloton, rogue squat rack, rogue bumper plates, heavy bag etc... I think my loving wife has used the peloton 7 times, and did squats with me once until "my knees are killing". A great investment. For me....

Beats the crap out of going to a stank gym and the only things I find myself missing are leg extensions (sick quads bro) and a few of the cable machines. Can easily make do without any of that though....

Its a beast and gives you all your compound lifts - you buy the bar yet? Their bar's are really great too, but couldn't stomach $300 on a bar and the $150 one off amazon has been great so far.

I bought a CAP bar - the Rogue's were all OOS. It was still $250, and has some weird reviews about metal splinters so I hope it's ok.
