It's a whopping $2349!!!
I bought one more than a year ago when I received an invitation. I was not impressed. It was buggy and felt like there was a disconnect between the Astro robot side and the Alexa side of things. Also the loud click-clack noise it made as it rolled around the kitchen tiles at night was annoying. The two big wheels are rubberized and dampen the sound. But the single plastic wheel in the rear is what makes it really annoying. It's been over a year, so i don't know what improvements Amazon has made.
