MO is the little [cleaning robot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pudu-cc1-pro) on a mission from [Disney Pixar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-robots)’s WALL-E.

This little action figure is the perfect desk accessory as it comes with [actual cleaning tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automated-cleaning-device). MO has duel bristles built into the front and when you roll him around on your desk, he will pick up any unwanted crumbs and dust-bites.

All the waste gets put into MO’s waste bin on the back and can be emptied when it is full.
