Keeping everything clean and tidy is one of the most frustrating tasks within the home. No matter how much you stay on top of daily chores, there just isn’t enough time to stop things from piling up. And if you have kids, dogs, or cats, the messes can get exponentially out of control with every day gone by. Unless you have enough money to hire a cleaning service, it can be difficult to get the help you need to maintain a relatively spotless living space. Which is why it can be so beneficial to have a helpful little robot.

Amazon is offering discounts on iRobot Roombas and other robot vacuums to help you get a leg-up on those household chores. We’ve rounded up the best deals available now and put them all in one place. With savings of up to $150, now is great time to get a quality vacuum at an affordable price.

This particular model of Roomba is one of the more popular options on the market today. Ideal for handling pet hair, carpets, hardwood floors, and just about any low-pile messes you can think of, the Romba 960 offers an all-in-one solution to everyday vacuuming. With power-lifting suction, dual multi-surface brushes, and a high-efficiency filter, this robot vacuum was made to rid your home of allergens, pollen, and dust without you having to lift a finger. It’s also compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, but you can create schedules and control it via the iRobot Home app as well.

Normally priced at $700, this Roomba robot vacuum is on sale for just $550 on Amazon, making it the steepest discount available. If this is a little bit out of your price range, keep reading for more affordable options below.

This robot vacuum is very similar to the 960, but with a few minor differences. Unlike the above model, the Roomba 890 does not come with the ability to map out its surroundings over time. However, it does come with patented dirt detect sensors that can alert it when it has discovered concentrated areas of dirt — such as high-traffic zones of your home. With its premium 3-stage cleaning system, it can lift and suction dirt, dust, and pet hair with ease. Like many of the newer Roomba vacuums, the 890 is also compatible with both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Normally priced at $499, a $49 discount drops the price to just $450 on Amazon.

Apple’s October 13 “Welcome Home” event is just days away, and new details of the company’s long-rumored smart home hub have surfaced. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the device will be called HomeView and is expected to ship around mid-November, several weeks after Apple shows it off on October 13.

We have been hearing about this device for quite some time. Earlier reports described a roughly 6-inch square display that could sit on a countertop or mount to a wall, recognize different members of a household, and act as the central controller for everything from locks and thermostats to smart speakers. The latest report fills in some of the biggest remaining blanks.

When you talk about a big-capacity home battery, your first thought might be a bulky unit set against a garage wall. But Anker is putting wheels on it to make it a little more mobile. The new Anker SOLIX S5000 is a 5,024Wh portable power station that pairs 4,500W of rated output with 120V and 240V support, built-in wheels, and a telescoping handle.

As per official claims, a single unit can keep a collection of essential household devices running for 48 hours during an outage, while additional batteries can expand the system from 5kWh all the way to 30kWh. You can see this in the official images, with the S5000 rolling between a home office and garage system, rather than being permanently installed in your home.
