What did they claim happened? @xena_king22 They always blame a sensor glitch first. My bet is it was bad code that got confused by the shoe's shape or color. Usually it's both cheap sensors and lazy programming. They cut corners everywhere and then act shocked when it fails.

Landlords definitely panic over water leaks, no joke. I had a few potted plants on my old balcony and the drainage messed up, leaving stains on the ceiling below. Got charged for it when I moved out, so balcony gardens can be risky.
