The best robot vacuum deals
- The iRobot Roomba Combo j7 Plus is on sale for around $899 ($120 off) at Best Buy and Target, which is one of its better prices to date. The j7 Plus is similar to the Roomba Combo j9 Plus, as it offers ai obstacle avoidance and a mop that automatically lifts to keep your carpets dry.

- If you’re hoping to pick up a solid midrange robot vacuum, Eufy’s X10 Pro Omni is matching its all-time low of $549.99 ($250 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/eufy-Auto-Lift-Detection-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling/dp/B0CPFBBHP4/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Eufy’s online storefront (with promo code WS24T2351).

- <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CPLP422K/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon, Best Buy, and <a target="_blank" href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1740823&u=1225169&m=108494&urllink=https%3A%2F%2Fus.narwal.com%2Fproducts%2Fnarwal-freo-x-ultra-robot-vacuum-mop%2F”>Narwal are selling Narwal Freo x Ultra for $799.99 ($600 off), which is the best price we’ve seen on the terrific mopping bot to date. The vac’s anti-tangle brush and 8,200Pa suction do a nice job on most carpets, but where it excels is on hard floors. In fact, the x Ultra is smart enough that it will go back and re-mop areas it deems as dirty. It touts relatively quiet operation, too, thanks in part to an onboard compression bin that only needs to be emptied every 60 days or so.
The Q5 Pro has a big 770ml bin, 5,500Pa of suction power, and can be paired with an auto-empty dock, making it a great budget option when it’s on sale. It also mops with a removable mopping pad with a small built-in water tank. It has dual rubber brushes, lidar mapping, and keep-out zones, and the app is very good.
With a unique ability to remove and reattach its mop pads, the Dreame X40 solves the problem of vacuuming carpets while also mopping hard floors. Its mops can also swing out and under low furniture, getting where most bots can’t reach. An extendable side brush helps get dirt out of corners. A whopping 12,000Pa of suction mean it’s a great vac, if not quite as good as the S8 MaxV Ultra.

The compact soundbar isn’t as powerful as other models in the brand’s lineup, but it should easily best your TV’s built-in speakers. It’s not our first choice for a soundbar — it lacks HDMI (and thus doesn’t support the helpful eARC tech) — but it’s an affordable way to add a Sonos piece to your home theater setup if you don’t mind using optical.
