UPDATE: Jun. 21, 2023, 11:30 a.m. EDT This story has been updated to reflect the latest robot vacuum deals at Amazon during its Prime Early Access Sale, plus other concurrent offers from Walmart and other competitors.

Robot vacuum deals have always been a pillar of Prime Day.

Now that Amazon owns iRobot, we expect an increased focus on Roomba deals — hopefully, unprecedented ones that beat the plateauing discounts we've been seeing since Black Friday-ish. The fact that the Roomba discounts that have been on and off for months are suddenly gone (as of the week of June 20) tells us that iRobot is preparing for something big.

If you're not set on a Roomba, however, you have several options to score a robot vacuum on sale ahead of Prime Day. Roborock, for instance, has almost all of its current models on sale, including a few S8 Series models that just came out in May 2023.

Below, we've rounded up the best robot vacuum deals that are live ahead of Prime Day at Amazon as well as retailers holding competing summer sales events. (Spoiler: Many markdowns got even better for day two of the event.)

Why we like it

You won't get smart mapping at this price point, but the Eufy Clean G40 provides thorough coverage through neat rows, which gives more cleaning accuracy than the bump-and-go approach through gyroscope guidance (hence the "G" in the title). It manages to squeeze out more than an hour of cleaning on Max mode and has suction more than strong enough for hard floors and light carpet upkeep.

Robot vacuums under $500

Why we like it

Last summer, Roborock debuted two mid-range self-emptying vacs. Both use LiDAR to map your home and head to the rooms you specify, deploying hearty suction and emptying into a compact dock. The Q5+ is the one that skips mopping to stay the most affordable, but still empties itself into a slim, chic dock. With Amazon's $220 coupon, the Q5+ is Roborock's cheapest automatic emptier by a few hundred dollars.

Robot mops and robot vacuum/mop hybrids

Why we like it:

Spring 2023 marked (another) new era for Roborock with the release of the S8 series — and two models are already on sale. Compared to one of our previous-favorite hybrids, the S7, the S8 introduces AI-powered obstacle avoidance, amped suction power, and dual roller brushes underneath. Roborock says that those last two improvements lead to a 30% increase in hair pickup.
