Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
it will not fall down stairs or over drop offs. We have open areas as well! It senses the edge and turns around everytime.

It will not fall off the stairs. It uses 'cliff detect' technology which is fancy for a sensor that makes sure it doesn't go for a tumble.

I really don’t know from personal experience, but it has sensors on both sides of the rotary bar that is supposed to sense a drop-off, and prevent the machine from going over the edge. The manual states that the sensors be kept clean to avoid “accidents”.
