Keep Your Home Clean For Less With Refurb Roombas Starting at $130

Robot vacuums are the perfect solution for busy people who want clean floors without lifting a finger. These nifty devices scoot around your home, picking up everyday dirt and debris while you're at work, taking care of other chores or enjoying a bit of leisure. Whether you have carpet, hardwood or tile, a robot vacuum can help you keep your floors clean and free of dirt, dust and pet hair.

Right now you can snag a great deal on factory-reconditioned Roomba vacuums at Woot, with prices starting as low as $130. These deals are only available until Oct. 1, and there's a chance that some models will sell out before then, so we'd recommend getting your order in sooner rather than later. 

Factory reconditioned is like new -- it means an item has been inspected and restored to fully working condition by the original manufacturer or a certified partner, and that your purchase will be covered by an iRobot limited 90-day warranty. And it's an excellent way to save some cash on such a big purchase. 

If you want a vacuum that does the most work for you, consider snagging a model with a self-emptying base. The Roomba i3 and i4 Plus Evo, as well as the Roomba i7 Plus give you up to 60 days of cleaning, storing the debris in the base, before you need to empty the dustbin deposit. 

With much stronger suction than the basic 600 series, these vacuums are ideal options for people with pets. These vacuums also learn your routine and will begin to suggest personalized schedules for you, which is one more way to help you put your time and energy into focusing on other things. And you can control your robot vacuum with your voice as both vacuums work with Google Home and Alexa enabled devices. 

The i3 Plus Evo is just $280 and has a ton of great features, including smart mapping and focused cleaning that automatically detects dirtier areas of your home and will clean more thoroughly, so it is worth considering. For an extra $20, you can upgrade to the nearly identical i4 Plus Evo, but if you want the option with the most bells and whistles, you may want to opt for the i7 Plus.

In addition to the self-emptying base, strong suction and smart mapping that the Evo sports, the i7 Plus also comes with options to program "keep out" zones where you want your robot to avoid, like play areas or anywhere with a lot of cords and obstacles. And while both target pet hair, the i7 Plus also features a high-efficiency filter that traps 99% of cat and dog dander allergens. The Roomba i7 Plus is $400 at Woot, compared to $730 for the new model at Amazon.

And if you want the best of both worlds, you the i4 and i7 are available for less without the self-emptying base, which you can still purchase later if you feel like upgrading. You can grab the vacuum-only i7 for just $250 or the i4 for just $200. This is a great chance score a really powerful vacuum for a lot less. You'll just have to empty the dustbin more often.

If you're looking for just a basic clean, there are two older vacuums available for just $130, the Roomba 630 and the Roomba 675. Since they're the same price, we'd recommend the more advanced Roomba 675, which comes with a charging station, rather than the Roomba 630, which requires two C batteries. Though if you can spare the extra cash, we'd recommend upgrading to one of the models listed above, which offer a much better value for the money.
