Sorry to hear about your fire, must be heartbreaking to lose all your things, The Robot vacuum cleaners have come a long way over the past few years and maybe not replace your traditional vacuum but to be honest I do think they ever will. However, that doesn't mean that they will not do a good job of keeping on top of the cleaning as well as using your normal vacuum. You mentioned the Roomba. You could look at the 860 which is well priced but without the wifi and app that comes with the modern robot vacuum, perhaps save some money and a Dyson type one that a bit cheaper for your main vacuum. hope this helps.
