How many square feet? Perhaps multiple 'Dirt Dogs' are necessary.

My Dirt Dog fills up quickly just in a 20' x 20' gar.. shop space.

I really like pressing the 'on' button and leaving for the morning.
When I get back, the floor is much cleaner and the robot is charging
itself. It does a much better job than I do. Wouldn't be without it.
