If there's one item that can help you clean your home with minimal effort, it's a robot vacuum. They're convenient, powerful, and a must-have for maintaining spotless floors. If you want a fantastic robot vacuum under $200,

As we’re all spread thin during the busy holiday season, now is the ideal time to snag the iRobot Roomba Essential Robot Vacuum, which is Amazon’s best-selling robot vacuum, especially considering it’s on sale for its lowest price ever.

The vacuum has BoostIQ Technology, which allows it to automatically increase the suction power in seconds when it detects that extra-strength cleaning is required. It is a quiet robovac with up to 100 minutes of cleaning time. You’ll get a 1-year warranty when you buy this through Amazon.

Black Friday is over, but the best robot vacuum deals are sticking around for the weekend. My favorites are the smart mapping Shark IQ Ultra for $148 or self-washing and drying Roborock Qrevo S for $459.

When it comes to robot vacuum cleaners, there's one brand that probably springs to mind before any other. But there are plenty of great options out there beyond Roomba, and one of our favorite models is on sale for nearly half off.
