We’ve tested a lot of great robot vacuums here at WIRED, but the Roborock Q5 Pro+ has held the top spot in our Best Robot Vacuums guide for some time now. It fluctuates in price quite often, but currently it's on sale for $480, matching the $220 discount we last saw during Black Friday and Cyber Monday in 2023. Just clip the on-page coupon to save. You can also snag the Roborock Q5+ (9/10, WIRED Recommends) for $380, a $320 discount. The pricier Pro+ model doubles as a mop—that’s the main difference between the two.

The Roborock Q5 Pro+ is a fantastic robot vacuum that doubles as a mop. Aside from the detachable mop pad, it has stronger suction, a longer run time, and a bigger dustbin than its cheaper Q5+ counterpart. Both robot vacs use lidar to route around your home, so you don't have to worry about little cameras roaming over your floors. They're fast and efficient—WIRED reviewer and editor Adrienne So says it took about 90 minutes to clean around 890 square feet. There’s a companion smartphone app where you can create maps and designate different cleaning zones. Overall, both robot vacuums are supremely reliable, a trait that’s hard to find in this space.

If neither catch your eye, you can also save on the Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum. It's on sale for $300 ($300 off). It's another great robot vacuum-and-mop combo. You can sign up for Shark’s marketing emails to get a coupon code for another 10 percent off (and then promptly unsubscribe).
