Robot vacuums feel like they're everywhere and nowhere all at once in the good year of 2023.

If you're wondering if robot vacuums are actually worth it, your best bet is to scope out Black Friday robot vacuum deals to try one yourself.

By Black Friday, we mean the entire month of November. Retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Amazon have been dropping early deals for weeks, and all four have finally cut the virtual ribbon of their official Black Friday sales: Walmart and Target earlier in the month and Best Buy and Amazon on Nov. 17. That means that unless you're waiting for a very specific vacuum that happens to not be on sale yet, there's no real point in waiting until Black Friday — and denying yourself several weeks of one less chore — to buy a robot vacuum.

Below, we're tracking the robot vacuum deals live ahead of Black Friday. Deals are organized into three sections — standalone robot vacuums, self-emptying robot vacuums (that don't mop), and robot vacuum/mop hybrids — and listed in order of price. We'll be updating this list as new deals drop throughout the days leading up to Black Friday, so check back.

Note:All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price.

Why we like it

For a solid cheap Shark option, skip the outdated $129 Shark ION and opt for one from the newer Matrix line instead. For less than $200, the RV2300 model (without an auto-empty dock) secures LiDAR-powered smart home mapping and virtual boundaries, plus Shark's Matrix technology, which tackles debris from multiple angles in a crosshatch pattern to grab anything that was missed on the first pass.

Shark itself claims that the Matrix dishes out 50% more suction power than the Roomba i3 — and when the Roomba i3 costs $100 more even on sale, we'd understand if that's an experiment you're willing to test.

Why we like it

Shark released several different versions of its flagship robot vacuum in 2023. The chic Detect Pro model sets itself apart from the pack with two new features: Dirt Detect, which automatically sends the botvac over dirtier areas multiple times with increased suction, and NeverStuck technology, which enhances this Shark's obstacle detection and maneuverability for less babysitting.

Home mapping and virtual boundaries guided by 360-degree LiDAR are present here, plus Shark's newest claim to fame: its Matrix cleaning technique that vacuums in a crosshatch pattern to grab any debris missed from the first angle.

Early Black Friday robot vacuum deals under $700

Why we like it

The s9+ hasn't been the latest or greatest Roomba since iRobot started rolling out its j Series robot vacs in 2021. But it should still be a serious contender if you have pets or lots of thick carpeting in your home — especially when on sale for $599.99. For reference, the only Roombas with stronger suction power than the s9+ are the j9+and Combo j9+, which go for $899.99 and $1,399.99, respectively, and aren't currently on sale.

Early Black Friday robot vacuum/mop hybrid deals

Why we like it

You can bring home the triple threat that is automatic emptying, mopping, and small obstacle avoidance for less than $500 with this deal that dropped on the first official day of Amazon's Black Friday sale.

Compared to the Roomba j7+, the j5+'s obstacle detection cameras aren't quite as precise, and still may require you to pick up things like towels or socks, or put a virtual barrier around pet bowls. But to be able to skip skimming the floor for rogue cords and enjoy automatic emptying for less than $400, you can probably deal with ensuring laundry gets into the basket. As for the mopping, this is one of iRobot's new Swap and Mop models, which does require you to be home to physically click on the water tank when you want to mop.
