Why these are the best Roomba deals:
1. If you're looking for an efficient Roomba under $200, the 670 model (currently $197) is a slightly older entry-level robot vacuum that doesn't skimp on the features. It has powerful suction with a three-stage cleaning process, multiple brush heads for various surfaces, and Wi-Fi, Amazon Alexa, and Google Assistant compatibility so you can control it no matter where you are.
2. The 675 (currently $199) is considered to be a newer version of the 670 with all the same features. It was as low as $170 earlier this year, and Lowe's and Amazon have both dropped the price down to $199.99 for Cyber Monday.
3. The 69 (currently $249.99) has all the perks of the 675 and 670 models, but the Dirt Detect technology is better so you'll get a superior clean, and barriers so you can indicate any no-go zones. Read our review of the Roomba 690 to see why it was the best overall robot vac in our buying guide.
4. The e5 5150 (currently $279) is a solid mid-tier robot vac and is the brand's replacement for the 800 series models. It's five times more powerful than the 675 and 690 models and has a high-efficiency filter that gets 99% of dust, mold, and dog and cat allergens.
5. Though slightly more expensive than the other models here, the 960 (currently $399) has an even more advanced version of the Dirt Detect tech found in the 675 and 690, but with lots of extra features. It can be paired with the app to show you which areas of your space were cleaned, learns your floor plan to clean more efficiently every time, self-dock and recharge when it's low on battery, and even resume cleaning after charging.

Is a Roomba worth buying?
In a word: Yes.
Our reviewers who have tested different versions of Roombas all say that it's super convenient to run the robot vac while they're at work or just in another room of their house and know that dirt, dust, and all sorts of crumbs will get sucked up off their floors. Check out our reviews of the 980 and the top-of-the-line self-cleaning i7+ for more.
In fact, Insider Picks' VP of Commerce Breton Fischetti even goes as far as to say this:
"The Roomba is the single best apartment purchase I've made in the last couple of years. I set it to run a few times a week while I am at work, and I love getting the app notification that it's finished cleaning. It makes me feel like I've done chores even though I haven't, and I'm always shocked by how much stuff it picks up.
You'd think running it frequently would mean that it would always be empty but the amount of general dust that accumulates every day is always surprising. My allergies are better because of it. If you have a pet, like my brother, it's even more impactful. He bought one after I showed him mine and loves it."
