Robot vacuum cleaners from Eufy and Roomba slashed in price for final sale before Christmas

iRobot and Eufy have both dropped price tags in the days before Christmas. If you missed the Black Friday sale on these popular robot vacuum cleaners last month, this is a superb opportunity to secure a saving.

Eufy has cut prices by as much as £500 in the Christmas Magic sale across its online store, which sees discounts on robot vacuum cleaners, smart scales, security cameras, and video doorbells.

Meanwhile, US manufacturer iRobot has launched its own Christmas Deals, with savings of £600 available across its bestselling robots. The latest discounts are only available while stocks last, and the price cuts to all Roomba robot vacuums must end at 11am on December 30, 2024.

Best Eufy robot vacuum deals

Even if you've never heard of Eufy, chances are, you've heard of its parent company Anker. This brand is renown for its fast-charging plugs, USB-C and HDMI cables, and much more. The award-winning brand is stocked in the Apple Store for some of its clever accessories for the iPhone, iPad, and other gadgets.

Eufy is dedicated to smart home technology, with a wide selection of scales, video doorbells, and security cameras. It also boasts a swathe of robot vacuum cleaners and mops capable of steering themselves around your home, prioritising the dirtiest rooms first, and emptying their contents into a sealed dust bag.

If you're looking for the most affordable vacuum, Eufy has cut its entry-level vacuum cleaner to just £139.99. Unfortunately the discounted G50 model has proven so popular, Eufy has sold-out.

Eufy is offering shoppers the chance to sign-up for stock alerts, but if you're on a tight deadline and need a new autonomous vacuum cleanert now then you're going to need to look elsewhere. Fortunately, the Chinese brand has plenty of other options on-hand for those looking for an affordable 'bot.

Eufy L60 usually costs £249.99, but has been discounted by a whopping £90 in the pre-Christmas sale — dropping the price tag to just £159.99, that's still slightly less than you'd pay for the G50 outside of a sale.

Despite its diminutive size, the Eufy L60 packs 5,000Pa of suction, which should be more than enough to drag crumbs, hair, and dust from the deepest carpets. Of course, different surfaces require different amounts of suction power for maximum cleaning efficiency, so L60 automatically increases adjusts suction as needed.

With its AI. Map 2.0 feature, Eufy lets you send the L60 vacuum to specific rooms to clean a spillage, designate parts of your home as No-Go Zones, and use Multi-Floor Mapping for homes over more than one floor too (you'll need to carry the vacuum upstairs yourself though... despite some promising signs, we're still a long way off these household gadgets being able to clean multi-story homes independently).

At this price point, the 'bot won't be able to dispose of anything that it's cleaned from the carpet into a dust-bag for you. Instead, the charging station is a pretty simple dock that refills the battery. Instead, you'll need to empty the contents from the smaller reservoir inside the vacuum cleaner itself on a regular basis.

If you're looking for a robot vacuum that isn't quite as hands-on, then look no further than the Clean X8 Pro, which has a freestanding charging station equipped with a 2.5-litre dust bag that securely seals pet hair and debris for a hands-free cleaning experience.

Eufy says it has enough capacity to store dust from the last 45-days, so you'll only need to empty your vacuum a dozen times each year. Of course, the Eufy X8 Pro is also smart enough to return to this charging station to dispose of dust and top-up its battery mid-cycle during a scheduled clean.

Eufy has also dropped £170 off its more affordable Clean X8 Pro with Self-Empty Station. This smaller 'bot can steer itself around your home, carefully avoiding furniture and obstacles. Eufy has also equipped this model with the same patented Active Detangling roller-brush that automatically detangles hair as it spins.

This pricier model boasts a pair of powerful turbines — each capable of producing 4,000 Pa in suction. This Twin-Turbine design with its 2x 4,000 Pa rating should ensure pet hair embedded deep within carpets are no match for the Eufy Clean X8 Pro, the brand says.

Usually £499, the flash sale has dropped this Eufy model £320.

If you want to use a smart speaker to command your Eufy X8 Pro, this model supports Alexa and Google Assistant. Helpfully, Eufy — which also has a range of security cameras to rival Ring video doorbells, smart scales that analyse your body composition, and breast pumps — has a trade-in offer.

If you already own one of its vacuums and want to upgrade to the newer models, then it's possible to unlock a bigger discount on the new Eufy Clean lineup.

For maximum savings, look no further than the Eufy Omni S1 Pro. This flagship robot vacuum cleaner is the only one to receive the full £500 discount advertised in the pre-Christmas sale.

The Omni S1 Pro features a dual-function design, capable of both vacuuming and mopping your floors autonomously. It's also equipped with a much more advanced navigation system, employing LiDAR — the same technology used for Tesla's self-driving cars — and AI-driven obstacle avoidance to efficiently map spaces and manoeuvre around household items.

And if you're looking for a no-hassle solution to keeping your home clean, one standout feature of this pricier 'bot is the self-cleaning docking station. Yes, Eufy has engineered the S1 Pro to autonomously empty its own dustbin, wash and dry the mop heads, and refill the water tank.

The station cleverly uses hot air drying to prevent bacterial growth and odour development on the mop pads.

The vacuum itself offers robust suction power, designed to tackle a range of surfaces, from carpets to hard flooring. The mop function benefits from adaptive pressure and rotational pads, simulating the scrubbing motion of a traditional mop.

Like the other (more affordable) vacuums in the lineup, the Omni S1 Pro ties into the Eufy smart app, enabling you to set custom cleaning schedules and remotely operate the droid from anywhere in the world. The Omni S1 Pro supports real-time mapping and room-specific cleaning, offering precision and control.

Usually a whopping £1,499, this top-of-the-line vacuum has now plunged below £1,000 in the sale.

Best iRobot Roomba robot vacuum deals

iRobot is the Massachusetts-based brand behind the best-selling Roomba autonomous vacuum cleaners.

These clever robots can navigate around your home, prioritise the dirtiest parts of the home, and clean on a regular schedule — with no need for you to lift a finger. Roomba vacuums can prioritise speed, or do a thorough dual-pass for a deeper clean.

Using its navigation algorithms, the Roomba will methodically clean in orderly rows, while sensors stop it from falling down stairs or knocking over ornaments as it cleans around and under furniture.

You can keep tabs on its progress on the vacuum from anywhere on the planet from the companion app on your iPhone or Android phone, as well as view a detailed report on where it cleaned.

If you've got an Amazon Echo, use Siri, or Google Nest smart speaker, you can use these voice assistants to command the any of the models from the Roomba lineup to start vacuuming or mopping.

As part of its Christmas sale, iRobot has slashed up to £750 off its range of Roomba vacuum cleaners.

If you're looking for the most affordable robot vacuum on the market from iRobot, look no further than Roomba Essential Roomba Essential. For that, you'll take delivery of a 2-in-1 autonomous robot that can vacuum and mop your floors, powered by iRobot OS. With the press of a single button, the clever gadget will begin removing dirt and dust from hard-to-reach places, like under the sofa.

Awarded an Editors Choice gong by PC Mag, the iRobot Roomba Essential usually costs £269, but has dropped down to just £149 in the summer sale.

If you're willing to spend a little more, the j7+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum comes equipped with a charging base with a built-in vacuum bag that the Roomba can empty its contents into.

These enclosed bags capture and trap 99% of pollen and mould, so you can empty the contents after 60 days and keep your hands clean. During its cleaning routine, the Roomba will dock itself on the charging whenever it needs to top-up the built-in battery or empty its onboard vacuum reservoir.

According to iRobot, the combination of this AI-powered gadget and the cleaning stand means you can "forget about vacuuming for months at a time". Usually £999, this advanced model has been reduced to £549 in the sale — a saving of £450.

The Roomba j7+ enjoys a smarter navigation system, known as "Precision Vision", to help the vacuum 'bot avoid pet waste, loose charging cords, and shoes from getting in the way.

When it spots one of these troublesome objects, it'll use the onboard cameras to send you a photo so that you can tell it to avoid or clean around the obstacle in the future. While the more affordable models in the iRobot line-up learn the layout of your home — this more advanced Roomba is able to react to it in real-time.

The Roomba Combo 10 Max has dropped from £1,499 to just £799.

That's the biggest saving across any of the iRobot lineup of self-steering vacuums. This flagship models improves on other variants, like the j7+ above, by including a refilling reservoir of water to the charging dock, so the self-navigating cleaner can refill its tanks and mop your floors for up to a month before you'll need to do anything. Not only that, but you'll only need to empty the bin bag built into the stand every 60 days.

This model offers iRobot's SmartScrub system, which mops back and forth with consistent pressure for a 2x deeper scrubbing than other models in the line-up to eliminate stubborn messes, like coffee and grime.

Leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Roomba Combo 10 Max will start to learn from past cleans to automatically prioritise dirtier rooms and adjust settings like suction, scrubbing, and cleaning passes.
