The Best Robot Vacuum Deals for April 2023

Robot vacuums are intended to simplify your cleaning routine. They can be programmed to fit your needs and lifestyle, whether you need a weekend deep-clean, extra attention to high-traffic areas, or daily tidying. With the arrival of spring—and all the allergens that come with it—there’s even more reason to get that extra-deep cleaning underway. Even though the big sales are over, deals are still available, and that’s where we come in.

When you’re looking to buy your first robot vacuum, there are a few things to consider. First up is mapping functionality: Can it navigate your home on its own, or do you frequently have to untangle it from cords and carpets? Smarter machines are more hands-off and easier to run via a proprietary app. And many robot vacuums support Alexa and Google Assistant, so you can use voice commands to tell it exactly where to go to clean a spill or an extra-messy room. 

Beyond that, most modern vacuums have sufficient suction power—but more is always better, so check for a vacuum’s Pa (Pascal) score, which is a measure of its atmospheric pressure, while you’re shopping. Finally, if you really want to set it and forget it, buy a self-emptying vacuum.
