Nowadays, it is very important that we make room for clean and breathable spaces. Regular vacuuming is the most efficient way to go about it and our only chance to win the battle against dust bunnies and all kinds of bacteria. If you can’t find the time to do so, we’re lucky enough to be at the age of technology where we can welcome perpetual little helpers such as robot vacuums to do the hard work for us. If you’re on a strict budget, we’ve got you covered as Amazon’s Labor Day Sales include robot vacuum deals from Eufy, iRobot, and Roborock.
eufy BoostIQ RoboVac 11S — $160, was $230
The Eufy RoboVac 11S (Slim) is one of the most affordable robot vacuums you can find that can already deliver 1,300 Pa suction. That means you can expect it to clean both hard floors and medium-pile carpets thoroughly. And with BoostIQ technology, you can leave it to adjust its suction power accordingly. Its large wheels will allow it to effortlessly glide on different platforms while its height of only 2.85-inches will let it go under furniture with ease. It sure won’t be bothering you as it proves around quietly with infrared and anti-drop sensors that help it navigate without your supervision.
This little droid has multiple cleaning modes and a triple-filter system to assure no dust is left behind. It also has an o.6-liter dustbin that you’d only have to empty once in a while and to maximize its runtime of about 100 minutes. And unlike humans, it is always prepared to clean, it merely stops and returns to its dock when it needs to recharge.
Usually priced at $230, Amazon lets you take home the Eufy BoostIQ RoboVac 11S (Slim) for as low as $160.

It has dual multi-surface brushes and an edge-sweeping brush to loosen, lift, and suck away small to large debris. Its cleaning head even automatically adjusts its height to always be in close contact with surfaces.

And instead of cleaning in a random pattern, this bot effectively and logically cleans in a Z-shape pattern so that it covers all areas.
The Roborock E4 also spares your back at all costs. Besides not having to drag a clunky old vacuum around, you will not have to crouch down to power it either. Instead, you have the choice to control it through the Mi home app or by voice command with Alexa.
