Hello there,
I am new to robotic cleaning and recently bought Neato XV Signature from Costo. Cleaning was awesome but could not bear the noise on the bare floor. After some research, I ended up buying a new allergey Kit from Amazon for $40/-.
amazon.com/Neato-Pet-Allergy-Upgrade-Kit/dp/B0083ONH1Y/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1389390988&sr=8-6&keywords=neato+allergy+filter
Three things happened due to this upgrade.
- Neato XV Signature is now Neato XV Signature PRO (just by paying $40 vs $100 if you buy new pro)
- Noise is reduced by 80% on the bare floor.
- It cleans much better on carpet now.
I am new to this and wanted to share my experience. Any thoughts?

It is true that with the specials for the Holiday season, it was beneficial for you to purchase the Pet upgrade kit separately. Based on the standard price of the robots, it is usually beneficial to purchase the XV Signature PRO. The difference between the products is $50 and the price of the upgrade is usually $60. Plus customers usually save on shipping fees by buying them together.
When buying a robot vacuum, it is also important to think about more than the cost of the product. After sales service is very important. At RobotShop we offer a 5 year warranty and very fast turn-around times for product exchanges and repairs. You can see more advantages of buying from RobotShop in this blog post. Buying from Costco is like buying from iRobot since you must contact the manufacturer of the product for after-sales service.
