Yes. We need to gauge how well our vacuum is performing.#2: Donna McFarland (jade8114) on Oct 16, 2016
OK Brian you got me. As I was solving I thought it was one of those games that you flip a disk or ball around. Nearing the end of the puzzle I thought of a gas gauge. Then I find out it is a vacuum gauge. Great Job again.#3: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Oct 16, 2016
I had to guess a LOT. I trust you to make a puzzle with a single solution, so I marked it Deep Lookahead.#4: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Oct 16, 2016
Cute picture!
Another good one Brian. :)#5: Teresa K (fasstar) on Oct 16, 2016
I challenged myself not to guess, and I got through it, very carefully. I'm so glad I stuck with it, because it was so satisfying, and watching the image pop was pretty cool.#6: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Oct 16, 2016
At first I made it all B&W but I couldn't solve it so I made the bag green. It was really hard but I solved it without guessing.#7: Jota (jota) on Oct 17, 2016

My vacuum doesn't have this sort of measuring device. I can see where one would be useful.#11: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Oct 17, 2016
That's a pretty old vacuum Brian. Is it a Kirby? :)#12: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Oct 17, 2016
Definitely not a Roomba.#13: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 3, 2016
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.#14: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Dec 3, 2016 [HINT]

This puzzle doesn't suck.#16: Emily Brower (Emimonster) on Jan 1, 2017
Had to use 2-way. I'd call it moderate look-ahead.#17: Velma Warren (Shiro) on Jan 14, 2020
Interesting solve. I like that there's not tons of fiddly 1s or brainless coloring-in.
Thank you for the puzzle.
I only rated it hard because I had to guess once. Otherwise, a quick fun solve.#18: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jun 24, 2020
Nice. I also had to guess once. I did guess what it was though.
