- Amazon’s Roomba deals were terrific during Black Friday and Cyber Week, and some of those deals are even still available now.
- Interestingly, Amazon saved its best Roomba deal of 2020 for this week.
- iRobot’s self-emptying Roomba i7+ is on sale for $599, but the Roomba i6+ robot vacuum is the exact same thing and it’s now down to $549.99 for the first time ever.
Black Friday and Cyber Week brought some absolutely incredible Roomba deals this year. What’s more, some of the best-selling deals are still available right now.
iRobot’s Roomba 675 was one of the best-selling robot vacuums we’ve covered during the pre-holiday shopping season this year, though we have good news and bad news on that front. The good news is that it’s still discounted at Amazon and it’s nearly as cheap as it was on Black Friday. But the bad news is new orders are going to take a long time to ship. Of course, the much bigger news during Cyber Week was that the $1,000 self-emptying Roomba i7+ robot vacuum that everyone wants so badly dropped from $1,000 to $599, a new all-time low price.
That huge $401 discount on the i7+ is still available right now at Amazon, which is big news with Christmas right around the corner. That said, we definitely DO NOT recommend that you take advantage of this outstanding deal.
Why would we advise against getting one of our favorite robot vacuums of all time at its best price ever? As it happens, the Roomba i6+ robot vacuum is on sale for even less — just $549.99. Most people are unclear on what the i6+ is and how it compares to the i7+, but it’s actually quite simple: they’re exactly the same. That’s right, the Roomba i6+ is an Amazon-specific SKU, but it’s the exact same model as the i7+. with that in mind, why would you spend another $50 on the i7+?
Here are the bullet points from the Amazon listing:
