Grillbot: The Screeching Roomba That Will Melt on Your Charcoal Grill

This is a motorized grill-cleaning robot that charges on USB, screeches like a trapped ferret, and reportedly melts if the grate is over 150 degrees [4.1.4]. The local expats in Todos Santos are currently using them to clean their artisanal wood-fired pizza ovens, unaware that it mostly just flings grease into their organic mezcal cocktails. It's the perfect gift for the man who wants to spend a hundred dollars to avoid thirty seconds of manual labor, only to spend two hours cleaning the robot afterward.
