Dishwasher racks were bent and removed. Wooden furniture was scratched and stained. Bathroom tiles were chipped

I think the only practical way to have home robot help like this is to build a dedicated room for them where everything is very thick stainless steel.

Rich people already do this (minus the durable steel). They have separate quarters in their homes for the help (slaves) who cook, do the dishes, and laundry
