This story is part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide to everything you need to know and how to find the best deals.
Dirt, dust, pet hair and debris just seem to accumulate on our floors so fast. That’s why robot vacuums have increased in popularity — they take on the daily maintenance for you. Right now Amazon has marked down hundreds of items for the Prime Early Access event. If you want to get a little help around the house, iRobot has some Roomba deals that you should check out. These offers expire tonight, so get your order in early if you see something you really want.
The iRobot Roomba i4 Plus Evo robot vacuum is designed for homes that have pets, and it has a three-stage cleaning system. It has dual rubber brushes, makes smart maps of your home and more. It can easily spot-clean on-demand or you can clean your home through prescheduled cleaning sessions. This vacuum also self-empties into its base, holding up to 60 days’ worth of dirt so that you don’t have to think about cleaning that often. And since this bundle comes with an Echo Dot (third gen) smart speaker, you can control your smart vac using just your voice once you pair them.
If you want a robot mop to help handle the other half of floor cleaning, the iRobot Braava Jet m6 is on sale right now. It’s marked down by $125, bringing the price to just $300. Not only do you get a hands-free mop, but you’ll get a third-gen Echo Dot with this deal as well. It cleans hard surfaces like hardwood, tile and stone using a precision jet spray to tackle small, daily dirt, spills, mud tracks, sticky messes and more. And if you don’t have a robot vacuum, don’t worry — this mop will dry sweep the hard surfaces in your home before getting them wet.
And if all you need is a robot vacuum, but you’re not interested in a self-emptying base or the free smart speaker, you can snag an iRobot Roomba 671 robot vacuum for just $180. That’s a $170 savings. It’s a solid vacuum that is the right size for smaller spaces like apartments and condos and features adaptive navigation. It gets up to 90 minutes of runtime per cleaning session. You’ll have to clean out the vacuum more often, but it still saves you a lot of time, keeping your floors tidy for you. And if you already have your own smart speaker, this vac is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
