Robot Vacuum Cleaner Black Friday Deals
When it comes to reducing time on housework, a robot vacuum cleaner is an absolute game-changer. These small machines vacuum up crumbs, pet hair and dust while prioritizing the areas that are more messy.
If you're on a budget, opt for a basic model that costs less than $300, while mid-range options come with self-emptying capabilities and navigation. High-end models can also include features such as smart mapping and obstacle avoidance.
iRobot Roomba j7+
The iRobot Roomba j7+ is one of the top robot vacuum s and is priced reasonably for such a feature-rich device. It comes with a clever app that makes it easy to plan your home, establish cleaning schedules and block off areas, and more. It also integrates with Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to utilize your voice to control the machine. This is a fantastic feature for pet owners, as the app can even be used to create a pet-friendly run that will help it keep pet messes out of the way.
The robot's patent-pending mapping technology makes it stand out from its competitors. The j7+ has the ability to create a detailed map of your entire house that includes all rooms and their contents. It can also save multiple maps, allowing you to clean different areas at different times if necessary. This helps the j7+ clean much more thoroughly than other robots and is especially effective in removing pet hair.
iRobot claims that the j7+ is able to keep pet waste out of the way. It certainly performed well in our tests. It does this using a set of sensors that helps it recognize the dimensions and shapes of various kinds of pet waste. Then, it uses that information to help it determine if the j7+ should try to avoid the area, which is a big advantage over other robots.
Another distinctive characteristic of the j7+ is its ability to self-empty. If the j7+ detects that its dirt bag is full, it will automatically return to its base, and then empty the contents into its Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal system. This is a lot easier than emptying the bin of dust on a rival robot. You'll only need to do this once every few month.
Another great thing about the J7+ is that it's extremely easy to maintain. The side brush is removable and is able to be cleaned and dirt bags are reusable and should be replaced every three months.
Roborock Q5+
The Roborock Q5+ robot vacuum is a great option for those seeking a reliable and durable robot that won't break the budget. Its advanced features allow it to maneuver through homes with ease, while providing powerful suction that is 2000 psi and can remove everyday dust, pet hair, and dirt. It also features an automatic emptying dock that empties the dust bag when it's full. This is one of the best deals on a robotic vacuum available right now.
The Q5+ uses LIDAR, and other sensors, to map the space when it cleans it for the first time. This helps it avoid obstacles. It's also surprisingly soft around furniture legs and other sharp edges, unlike other vacuums that smash everything in their way like they're in the path of a approaching train. It's great at getting up low-pile carpets however it could have issues with thick power cords or other objects that could get stuck in the rollers.
It can be controlled through the app, making it easy to schedule cleaning sessions and adjust settings. You can also monitor the battery status of your robot and its location. You can even install a virtual fence to keep it from leaving. It's important to note that this model doesn't come with drop sensors like other Roborock models. If it falls on something, it will send an error message and shut down the machine until you manually reset it. It's recommended that you periodically clean the drop sensor with a clean cloth or cotton bud in order to prevent this from happening.
The Roborock Q5+ comes with moderately high cost of recurring expenses. The brushrolls have to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours of usage. The side brush is replaceable and is available on the manufacturer's website in a two-pack. The Q5+ comes with large 470-mL trash bin which means it can take on an enormous amount of dust without having to return to its dock for recharging. It doesn't have bin sensors, so you'll need to manually change out the bag as it gets full.

The device is very effective thanks to its large dust bin which allows it to mop and vacuum larger rooms without the need to empty it often.
The Dreame L40 Ultra, like many other robotic cleaners of highest quality, has a sidebrush that is raised and unfolded to reach corners that are difficult to reach. It also has the ability to automatically switch between sweeping and mopping, making sure there's no overlap when switching between hard floors and carpets.

Eufy RoboVac G30
The G30 Edge is the latest robot vacuum cleaner to come from the Eufy stable. Like previous models, it's affordable and comes with plenty of features. It's also more quiet and compact than the competition, making it a good option for smaller and apartment homes. It's capable of cleaning most floors. It has a 2000Pa maximum suction with multiple clean modes, BoostIQ to optimize power, and a 100-minute running time.
It's a glossy blue and black design that is a magnet for fingerprints, similar to smartphones but that shouldn't stop it from being the right suitable choice for homes with a variety of styles. It's one of our smallest robot vacuums with a size of 12.8 inches wide and 2.85 inches tall. This makes it able to clean furniture with low levels more effectively than other models.
In the box there's an AC power adapter and two side brushes, a third unibody filter, a cleaning tool, five cable ties, and an informative guide. Eufy recommends that you prepare your home by clearing away any objects that could trip up the G30 and its attachments. Also fold any edges that are tasseled of rugs to avoid them becoming caught in.
One thing that makes the RoboVac G30 apart from most other robots is its rotary brush, which removes debris and dirt from difficult-to-access areas in corners and along walls. Its smart sensors also detect cluttered areas and stairs and automatically adjust the cleaning path to ensure that every inch is covered.
When it comes to mopping, the G30 has a tank that can hold up to 4.4fl oz of water and connects to the bottom of the machine. The mopping kit is easy to empty and refill, and comes with a set microfiber cloths for both dry and wet spills.
The app is simple to use and provides a variety of options to alter the robot's behaviour. The G30 robot can be programmed to go back to its base to recharge or stop cleaning at a specific time. It's not equipped with advanced mapping, as well as other features typically similar to those found in more expensive robots, such as the ability to create virtual no-go zones however, that's a small cost to pay for a cheaper model that is quiet and easily, and requires less maintenance than its rivals.
