Q The Misanthrope

Not shocked. I bought one four years ago, had a ton of issues. After many attempts they send me a new one with the exact same issues. So I have two and neither one works. I’d rather clean the floors myself than fight it.

Their software is garbage, their hardware is garbage.

It’s everything with any memory or processing onboard.

I’m seeing it in my industry, devices are increasing in price every quarter to 6 months. These all cost businesses more money than even a year ago, and those costs will be passed to us.

This is why I do it. It’s not necessarily symmetrical, just roughly even weight distribution to prevent a heavy side.
