Amazon’s Top-Selling Robot Vacuum Is on Sale for $100 Off

IF YOU’RE ON a budget and want to get a robot vacuum, you should buy from iRobot (the Roomba company). If you, like me, would only buy a Roomba if the price were right, you should buy one right now, because the entry-level Roomba 692 is $100 off right now.

Is this the best robot vacuum ever? No. But, it might be if you buy it for $170. I got my parents one of these at retail price a few years ago, and they love it. It’s not like the new Dyson Vis Map or any of the other smart mapping robot vacuums. But, this little guy uses a distance sensor to move around the room. That means it’ll move until it sense as wall, turn, and keep cleaning. It’s a lot less efficient than smart mapping vacuums, but it gets the job done.

The Roomba 682 almost never gets stuck in corners. Chairs can occasionally give it issues, but it normally finds a way out on its own. The only thing it really struggles with is returning to its charger. About 80 percent of the time, it makes it home. The other 20 percent, you’ll have to pick it up and place it on the charger. It’s not a huge inconvenience, but it’s one you should know about.

Beyond all that, this is as simple as a robot vacuum gets. You can control it from anywhere with your smartphone, and it’ll do a decent job of cleaning your home. It’s easy to empty. It’s easy to clean. For it’s standard retail, it’s the best budget robot vacuum you can find. But for $100 off retail, it’s the one of the best home deals we’ve seen, an instant Add to Cart situation.
