Top Black Friday and Cyber Monday Robot Vacuum Deals
This is your chance to own a robot vacuum. CNET's top-rated models are available for sale this Black Friday and Cyber Monday, with savings of up to 57%.
The Roborock Q7 Max offers strong pressure and smart mapping, with app-based no-go zones, and its 180-minute runtime is awe-inspiring. It also self vacuum-empties and refills its water tank.
1. iRobot Roomba j7+
The Roomba j7+, iRobot’s most advanced robot to date is the Roomba j7+. Its most significant innovation is a camera-based obstacle detection system that makes use of built-in AI to detect objects like charging cords, shoes and the dreaded pet waste that many other robots are unable to avoid (and often go through). It's also the first to automatically send you a photo of an object it encounters to let you know to avoid it in the future.
The Combo J7+ is the most efficient robot mop we have ever tested. It removes dirt and spills quickly leaving no trace it was there. The iRobot application makes it simple to control. You can schedule cleanings, and also create Keep Out Zones to ensure that it doesn't clean in areas that you don't would like. It's also compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, so you can control it from start to stop using your voice.
Its design is also superior to the rest with a sleek top piece that looks more like a toy robotic than a loud, obnoxious one. Clean Base's automatic floor vacuum Dirt Disposal System also self-empties, which will cut down your cleaning time.
In our tests, the j7+ was quick to pick up and remove dust, dirt and pet hair. The counter-rotating rubber brushes kept the debris in one spot instead of scattering it across the floor. It even was able to take small gravel and sand which other robots can't. And all of this without getting caught in our pet's hair shed.
While it's not quite as efficient as the $1,217 iRobot Roomba s9+ Self-Emptying Vacuum and can't clean stairs, the J7+ is a solid option for those who need both mopping and a vacuum in their home. It's not expensive and the iRobot App makes it simple to use.
The iRobot Home App is easy to use but we found it less reliable than other robotic cleaner applications. It can take some time to download updates and it is sometimes difficult to tell whether they're functioning until you actually witness them in action.
2. Roborock Q5+
When you're looking for an automated vacuum cleaner that can do more than just clean floors, the most effective option is likely to be one that is a hybrid. This type of robot typically comes with a built-in tank for water which means they can mop and vacuum your home simultaneously. They also come with many additional features such as smart mapping, small object avoidance, and the possibility of washing and re-drying mopping pads. They're costly at retail, but usually lower prices on Black Friday or Cyber Monday.
Roborock produces some of our most loved robotic vacuums and the Q5+ doesn't fail to impress. This is the cheapest model in their auto-empty line. While it may not come with some of the luxurious features (like no-go zones and multi-story memories) however, it's an excellent option when you're willing to make a few compromises to save a few dollars.
The Q5+ is extremely gentle when it comes down to obstacles such as walls and table legs. This makes it an ideal choice for homes that have lots of furniture. It's also very thorough when it comes to cleaning dust bunnies, which is a problem which many robot vacuums can really fall short. The navigation technology in the Q5+ is excellent and has very few missing in corners and along walls.
The Q5+, just like other Roborock products can be controlled via only a few buttons on your device or via the Roborock App. Through the app, you can start and stop cleanings and schedules, as well as create virtual barriers and no-go zones, and alter your home map or change the labeling of rooms.
If you opt for the Q5+, it comes with a brand new auto-empty dock specifically designed to make this robot easy to maintain. It requires a screwdriver to install, but once in place the process of emptying the bin is relatively simple. It also comes with a large LCD display that is great to have when setting up schedules or adjusting settings. This feature isn't necessary for the majority of people, however it can help you effectively keep the bagless robot vacuum's maintenance schedules.
3. Narwal Freo X Ultra
The Freo X Ultra robot vacuum and mop is a sophisticated, well-rounded mop and vacuum. It's capable of both vacuuming and mopping. Its design and function are some of the most advanced available however, it's also expensive.
Its base station looks good and hides it when not in use, and its dimensions are quite small. But the station's main selling point is how it automates various tasks and functions that most other robots will leave to you. It can store dirty and clean water and also electrolyze and warm the water. Most other robovacs will require you to do this.
Its vacuuming performance is also impressive. It's one of the only robovacs that I've tested that does very well at cleaning up debris from plain floors, and is not as loud as the more expensive Roomba 980 or iRobot 900 series.
The Freo X Ultra is not free of faults, especially in the area of navigation. Its LiDAR and laser sensors aren't as reliable and reliable as other robovacs, meaning it can get stuck or confused in certain rooms or corners of the house. It's not able climb stairs as well as competitors, for instance and it doesn't have an dock that allows you to create an area for cleaning that is specifically designed for plush carpets.
The Freo X Ultra robot vacuum and mop is an excellent choice for those who want a vacuum robot that can do everything.
If you're looking for a way to save money or aren't averse to the limitations of the robot, there are many alternatives available. Many eufy models cost significantly less. The eufy Qrevo Curv, for instance, is cheaper and offers an identical experience on the app with more features, including stair climbing, a full-function dock, and superior overall performance when vacuuming floors as well as high- and low-pile carpets.
4. Eufy RoboVac G30
eufy is an Anker company that has an established track record of making robot vacuums that offer the perfect combination of performance, features, and price. The G30 Hybrid is no different it offers a high-quality cleaning of hard floors as well as mopping, carpets and other surfaces at a reasonable price. It's simple to set up, just snap on one of the side brush, turn it on and connect your charging dock. The app will guide you through the steps to connect your G30 to your Wi-Fi. The dock will need to be located near an outlet and have plenty of room to move.
The G30 is a compact device, measuring 2.85 inches in height, meaning it will fit under most couches and low-clearance pieces of furniture. Its design is less ostentatious than some rival models, and features sleek black finishes and three buttons that are physical: auto vacuum cleaner Cleaning start/pause, Recharge, and Spot Cleaning (which scrubs an area in an arc for two minutes). You can also connect the G30 to Amazon Alexa or Google Home to do unscheduled cleaning with voice commands.
The way that the G30 cleans is what sets it apart from its rivals. It makes use of a built-in map to create an image of the immovable objects in its path while retaining what it's cleaned and what it isn't able to access. If it requires a recharge, it automatically returns to its starting point and begins cleaning where it began.
The eufy G30 isn't without its faults however. The iRobot Roomba 675 is much better constructed, has lower recurring costs, is charged more quickly and has the same battery life while offering better performance on floors with no carpet and low-pile carpet. It comes with a larger dust bin that does not require the same amount of emptying. It also has boundary strips that keep it from certain areas. The G30 is more affordable and simpler to maintain. Its smaller dust canister doesn't need emptying as often and is less prone to suffocating heavy materials such as cereal.
