I think for most indoor household work they only really need enough to move from station to station. Once they are at the bed to fold clothes or in the kitchen washing dishes, they should be able to plug themselves in.
That’s way too limited for $60k though. I’d pay $20k even if it had to plug itself in for most jobs, assuming it was decent at cable management and could manage its own extension cord in other situations.
I would pay double that if it were capable of household/office/workshop reorganization and managing storage with a live inventory of where it put all the crap it cleans up. It’s not quite at the point where it would be a positive ROI financially (assuming $80k TCO over 5-10 years) but it’d make life a lot more convenient and lower the activation energy for a ton of hobbies.
