What is a product that sounded promising but ended up being very underwhelming?

I've seen the ones with the trash station, but then I'd think you'd still need to dump that into the regular trash, fluffing up all that dirt again.
My house is a single story, open design, so I don't think it really works well without setting the boundaries, as it just spreads itself too thin trying to do the whole place, and as it's slow, it makes whatever room it's working in somewhat off limits as you dont want to step on it or block it. The timer would help with that though, but it still seems more complex than the 10-15 minutes it takes for me to grab the upright and do all the floors, plus hit the nooks and Crannies and ceiling corners as well.
It's still no Rosie from the Jetsons. 😕
I’ve got the station that empties the Roomba and it actually takes forever to completely fill (I run it often too).
Not saying you should buy a Roomba; if I could go back in time I’d probably get a Roborock due to the S9+ having atrocious navigation and constant strange errors (“battery not found”).
