These 6 Prime Day robot vacuum deals have me shocked at how affordable they’ve become

I don’t know about you, but to me, even as someone who reads, writes and tests all kinds of new tech, a robot vacuum still feels like something from Back to the Future Part II, alongside flying cars, hoverboards and rehydrated-at-home pizza. And, while I’m aware robovacs really do exist, I’ve generally brushed them off as too expensive to investigate on a writer’s salary.

Given how quick and easy the best stick vacuums can make cleaning, snagging one of the greatest robot vacuums felt like something for the elites. However, while top tier models can reach prices over AU$4,000, it turns out that robovacs don’t have to break the bank – and I’ve found six Amazon Prime Day deals that prove it, offering up to 69% off models from highly reputable robovac makers.

It might not be the biggest discount or the cheapest offering in this little list, but it’s really hard to ignore a 46% saving on what my colleagues believe is the best robot vacuum money can buy. Offering a truly hands-free experience, in our Roborock Qrevo Curv review, our tester loved this machine for its truly hands-free experience, praising its top-notch vacuuming and mopping that make it a truly mighty floor cleaner. On top of that, it also provides stellar self-cleaning, as well as a handy on-board camera and two-way mic.View Deal

We called Eufy’s X10 Pro Omni “another excellent vacuum“, and it sits in the #2 spot in our guide to the best robovacs. And I think for most people its significantly cheaper price tag than the Roborock above (especially now that it’s under AU$1,000 for Prime Day) likely makes it a better buy. Our reviewer called it “almost perfect” in their Eufy X10 Pro Omni review, despite having some small drawbacks like needing to add detergent manually and its large charging base. It combines powerful vacuuming and excellent mopping skills with an intuitive mobile app – a feature that is too often the downfall of these machines.View Deal

One of the best budget options in our robovac guide, this deal gets you the Xiaomi X20 Plus for an impressive AU$300 less than any previous deal. And, considering we called its original price “incredible” in our Xiaomi X20 Plus review, that’s quite the discount. It has a “huge” dock (58.6 x 42.7 x 34 cm), and it’s a completely self-cleaning vacuum, with full mopping capabilities and impressive navigation capabilities.View Deal

We haven’t gotten around to testing this model, but considering we’ve had overwhelmingly positive experiences with Roborock as a brand, I’m confident about including it on this list. Customers are loving this 59% discount, making this vacuum the #7 bestseller in Amazon’s Home category during the week-long Big Deal Days sale. This vacuum promises solid navigation even in challenging environments thanks to its real-time hazard avoidance system – something that’s usually only seen on pricier Roborock models. It also mops with rotating pads that seamlessly lift into the vacuum when on carpet and has a self-cleaning dock. View Deal

Sitting in eighth spot on the Amazon Home bestsellers list, at 65% off this machine boasts a bigger discount than the Roborock above. And while we haven’t tested this model, but we did award its close sibling 4.5-stars in our Ecovacs Deebot T30S Combo review. This three-in-one machine promises powerful suction for deep carpet cleaning and it can map 100 square metres in just a few minutes. It also features auto-lift mopping, edge cleaning, as well as voice control via YIKO, Google Assistant or Alexa.View Deal

We haven’t tested this machine either (in 2025, there are frankly too many robovacs to get through), but considering it sits at 19th in the Home bestsellers list on Amazon, customers seem to be attracted by its AU$399 price tag, and it’s easy to see why. Roborock’s a highly reputable brand and this model boasts 10,000 Pa suction that matches many of the vacuums above, has a 150-minute runtime, and can also mop floors. Plus, it works on the same handy mobile app as other Roborock vacuums.View Deal
