The battle of the bots: as TechRadar’s resident robot-vacuum expert, these are the 4 Prime Day deals I’d spend my own money on

When it comes to choosing the right kind of robot vacuum for your home, you could go down the budget path and pick one with decent suction. The issue there is that anything that’s ‘affordable’ will likely not be fully automated and will perform perhaps just one or two functions, requiring your intervention each time.

If you can make your budget stretch a little, you can now score premium robot vacuums at a fraction of the price and they’ll do more than just vacuum and mop for you.

I’ve picked four out of a plethora of options discounted during Amazon’s Prime Day 2025 sale, three of which we’ve reviewed on TechRadar. All four are from established brands in this space and all of them have similar functionality – they will vacuum, they will mop, they’ll empty their own bins, wash their own mop pads and then dry them too.

All you need to do is set up them at home and remember to keep the clean water refilled and empty out the dirty water. Dust bag replacements can be done at a more sedate pace.

So, without much ado, let me help you suck up some good savings, but note that these are all Prime-exclusive deals. If you aren’t a Prime member, you can sign up now to get a 30-day free trial and you can cancel any time.

One thing to remember with each of these robot vacuums is that there will be some ongoing costs to take into consideration.

The most common of these will be the dust bag that will need replacing every month or two, depending on which model you choose to buy, also on how often you vacuum and whether you have pets. After every six to eight months, you’ll likely need to replace the mop pads as well but, again, this will depend on use and some, like the Ecovacs Deebot T30 Omni, actually do a fabulous job of washing and drying the mops to be keep them fresh for longer.

Some robovacs can use detergents, but not all, so please check if the model you buy can take some soap. If so, it will need to be proprietary as not all detergents will suit the mechanism inside the base stations and can void your warranty.

Get ready to spring clean!
