One piece of advice: if you have a Roomba (or other robotic vacuum cleaners with brushes), don’t leave any LEGO bricks lying on the floor. I try to be careful and pick up anything from the floor straight away, but for the second time now, it has eaten one of my bricks. The sad thing about that is that the brick suffers irreparable damage from being caught in the brushes. Just look at this poor red 1×4 plate!
