I prefer a robot vacuum and a human maid. For $20,000 or $500 a month, I can get a top-tier Roomba and hire a cleaner for a year. The value proposition is not there yet.
Perfect for elderly assistance someday. Even with human teleop, I can see the value for people with mobility issues. Having a remote expert help is better than no help at all, as long as the privacy is truly secure.
The subscription is a better deal. I might be willing to pay the $499/month subscription for a few months to try it out, but I'm never dropping $20K upfront on an unproven product.
I'll believe the autonomy when I see it. The video showing it opening a door on its own is not enough proof. I need a lot more autonomous demonstrations before I trust it.
My existing smart home setup is better. My combination of smart lights, Ring, and robot vacuum provides more reliable automation right now for a fraction of the cost.
The constant human supervision is a deal-breaker. I was sold on the idea of an AI robot, not a person in a VR headset doing my chores for me. That's a service, not a product.
A real step towards the Jetsons future. I'm excited to witness this shift from industrial robots to residential ones. It signals a huge change in the industry.
Too much hype for too little performance. The marketing videos promise a lot, but the reality is currently a very slow, human-controlled machine. The gap between expectation and reality is too wide.
A huge step for the future of home robotics. I'm pre-ordering this immediately. The potential for a real, helpful humanoid assistant outweighs the current limitations. This is a first-generation product and I'm excited to be an early adopter.
The quiet operation is a huge plus for a home. A loud, clunky robot would be annoying. The 22 dB noise level makes it a much better fit for a peaceful home environment.

The $200 deposit is a low-risk bet on the future. Putting down a small deposit to secure a place in line for the first wave of a revolutionary product seems like a reasonable gamble.

Wait for Tesla Optimus. The $20,000 price tag is insane for a robot that can't fold a sweater without a human helping it via VR. Hard pass until the autonomy improves dramatically.
The legal implications are terrifying. If a remote operator uses the robot to commit a crime or cause serious damage, the legal liability is completely unclear. It's a legal minefield.
The ability to recharge itself is vital. It being able to walk to a standard wall outlet and plug itself in is a small but crucial detail for a truly autonomous device.
The subscription is a better deal. I might be willing to pay the $499/month subscription for a few months to try it out, but I'm never dropping $20K upfront on an unproven product.
A bold vision that deserves support. 1X is taking a big risk by going straight to the consumer market. I admire the company's ambition to push the boundaries of what's possible.
