The Roborock S7 is our favorite midrange robot vacuum of 2023, and is going to be the best option for most people -- especially at this price. It boasts 2,500PA of suction power, and has a multi-directional brush for effective cleaning on uneven surfaces. Plus, it has a built-in mop and features ultrasonic carpet recognition so you don't need to worry about your rugs getting soaked. It runs for up to 180 minutes on a single charge, and supports voice control through Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri.
You can also upgrade to the S7 Plus for $681 ($269 off), which includes the self-emptying base so you only have to empty it every few weeks.
If you're after a budget-friendly model, the Q5 is the most affordable robot vacuum you'll find at this sale. It's slightly stronger than the S7 above with 2,700 PA of suction power, but doesn't have a mopping function. It maps your home using lidar technology, and allows you to set custom no-go zones and cleaning schedules.
If you do want mopping capabilities, you can upgrade to the Q5 Pro for $320 ($110 off), which also boasts a stronger 5500 PA of suction power. There's also the $500 Q5 Pro Plus ($200 off), which comes with the self-emptying base station.
If you prefer to do the vacuuming yourself you can snag the Dyad Pro, which is designed for both wet and dry messes. It boasts a substantial 17,000 Pa of suction, and will automatically adjust its cleaning power depending on how dirty the floor is. Plus it has a self-cleaning and self-drying function for easy maintenance.
And there are plenty of other vacuums on sale for as much as $250 off, so be sure to shop the entire selection to find the one that's right for you.
