iRobot Roomba i3 EVO Robot Vacuum (Refurbished) Deal price: $180 on eBay; street price: $250
We've tested dozens of robot vacuums, and we think the iRobot Roomba i3 Evo will do a great job cleaning a variety of homes. An ideal choice for larger spaces with rugs and shedding pets, our pick for best robot vacuum surpasses less expensive models with its strong suction, tangle-resistant brushes, and smart navigation. In addition, the Roomba i3 boasts features like Reactive Sensor Technology and Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility. At $180 with code SUMMER20SAVE, this price is the lowest we've seen for this excellent certified-refurbished robovac.

iRobot Roomba i7 Robot Vacuum (Refurbished) Deal price: $248; street price: $400
The Roomba i7 is a smarter variant of our top robot vacuum pick, the i3 EVO. Offering great navigation with the ability to clean or ignore certain rooms, the i7 is great for complicated house layouts. While this is an older robot vac, and we have seen some slightly better deals in the past, you can bring the price down to $248 for a refurbished model with the code SUMMER20SAVE. If you're worried about purchasing a manufacturer refurbished model, this deal also includes a two-year Allstate warranty for some added peace of mind.

iRobot Roomba 692 Robot Vacuum Deal price: $180; street price: $280
The iRobot Roomba 600 series is a long standing favorite amongst our reviewers. The Roomba 692 is no exception (and it's similar to our current budget pick, the Roomba 694). It's Wi-Fi enabled and works with both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa to build your perfect smart home. The 600 series comes in a few variants, but if it’s a Roomba model that starts with a 6, they're mostly the same, save varying Wi-Fi capabilities and some aesthetic differences. Like many Roomba models, the 692 is more repairable than bots from other brands. Down to $180, this deal is only a few dollars more than the lowest we've seen it for, and the matching the best price we've seen this year.

Eufy RoboVac 35C Robot Vacuum Deal price: $120 at Woot; street price: $180
Eufy RoboVac 35C Robot Vacuum Deal price: $150 at Verizon; street price: $290
This Eufy vac is a variant of our budget robot vacuum pick, the Eufy 11S. The slim and quiet 35C offers a touch control panel and Wi-Fi connection that allows you to control it from your smartphone. After testing it, we think it's best suited for small spaces and will do best on hard surfaces or low- to medium-pile carpets. We saw a better price for the 35C in the past, however at $150, its still a solid discount.

iRobot Braava Jet m6 Robot Mop Deal price: $300; street price: $400
If you want to use a smart-home app to control when and where your robot mop cleans, or want to be able to mop multiple rooms at a time (up to 1000 square feet), we recommend the iRobot Braava Jet m6, the upgrade mop pick from our guide. The Jet m6's bigger battery, water tank, and more sophisticated navigation system make it ideal for big spaces. A built-in camera helps this bot learn the layout of your home after two or three cleaning sessions per level. In testing, we found that it won't make floors sparkle like a dedicated hand mop, and it struggled with rug edges and thresholds.

Roborock S5 Max Robot Vacuum and Mop (Refurbished) Deal price: $264; street price: $380
If you want a bot that'll multitask, you may like a robot vacuum. In testing, we've found these bots aren't quite as good at each task as a dedicated robot vacuum or robot mop. Still, they can be handy in the right situation. The combo pick in our roboto mop guide, the S5 Max is one among loads of great options that can both vacuum and (kind of) mop, but Roborock has a better reputation than other combo-bot brands. If you’re already seeking a robo vac and your mopping needs are modest, the S5 Max is be a solid choice. This refurbished model is back down to the previous low when you use promo code SUMMER20SAVE.

Bissell CrossWave Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $200 at Amazon; street price: $227
Bissell CrossWave Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $200 at Target; street price: $227
If you regularly need to clean dirty floors quickly, you might like a vacuum-mop combo. Our main pick, the classic CrossWave, gets floors near-spotless more quickly than any other floor-care tool, including cordless vac-mop combos. In testing, we've found this strong and durable plug-in model sucks up solid debris, slurps up spills, and wipes away stains—all at the same time. Fair warning: Regular maintenance is essential, but that's true of all the mop-vacuums.
Read our review of the best mop-vacuum combo is the bissell crosswave.
Bissell CrossWave Pet Pro Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $210; street price: $300
The Bissell CrossWave Pet Pro is essentially the same machine as the standard CrossWave, but it's better at cleaning up pet hair, thanks to special brushes and detergent. Like the standard version, it's quick at sucking up debris and spills, and wiping away stains.

Tineco Pure One S12 Cordless Stick Vacuum Deal price: $350; street price: $450
The Tineco S12 line of cordless stick vacuum cleaners are their top-of-the-line models (and a step up from our main pick, the Tineco S11). In testing, we found the Pure One S12 is a marginally stronger cleaner than our top cordless stick vacuum pick, and its battery life is a little longer. It also has a built-in display with the remaining battery percentage and a few indicators that can help you troubleshoot problems such as a clog or tangle. The Pure One S12 variant comes with a number of handy attachments.

Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV352 Upright Vacuum Deal price: $95; street price: $180
While this isn't the lowest price we've seen for the Shark Navigator NV352, we've hardly seen any deals for this model in about a year. If you need something more powerful and longer-lasting than a cordless stick vacuum, this discount is a great opportunity to save on a reliable and easy-to-use option. We've been testing and recommending the NV352 for more than 7 years, and in that time we've found it requires little maintenance and has essentially no recurring costs. It also comes with a five-year warranty.

Black+Decker 16V Max Lithium DustBuster Hand Vacuum CHV1410L Deal price: $40; street price: $55
If you need something simple for quick cleanups around the house or in your car, this small, affordable cordless handheld vacuum gets the job done. In testing, we found the 16V reaches awkward spots and is decent at sucking up pet hair from upholstery, although it's probably best if you only need to use a hand vacuum occasionally. The 16V has a 12-minute runtime and recharges faster than most other comparable models. At $40, the price matches the previous lowest we've seen.
