I had early access to Hey Matic AMA. tl;dr it's delightful

I was lucky enough to get early access to the Hey Matic Cues this week. Have to say, this feature is such a subtle game changer.

I made a mess on the floor trimming my cat's claws and being able to tell Matic exactly where to vacuum up is SO COOL!

I also love that I can be at the sink washing up and can just call Matic over for a water tank top-up without getting my phone out. It feels so seamless.

The understanding of voice commands feels intuitive. I can tell it "clean my bathrooms" and it gets to work on BOTH bathrooms which I honestly didn't expect.

Also, if anyone was really paying attention, the founders have been working towards this feature for a long time. They talked about it in this 2023 Verge article.

How do you guys wash your mop rolls?

I haven't noticed any smells unless I take the roller out and sniff it... but I like to keep things fresh, especially since I don't use the Aunt Fannie detergent. My cat has a history of health issues and I don't trust that it's completely pet safe since it has a little bit of essential oils that are no good for cats.

I was thinking about sticking mine in either the dishwasher or the laundry and just rotating between two. Didn't want to destroy up my mop roll though. Also wasn't sure if my Matic would get confused since you're supposed to hit a button when you change out a mop roll.

Side note, it's curious that that setting for mop rolls exists but there isn't one for the brush roll.
