Wyze Cordless Vacuum undercuts rivals with ridiculously low pricing

Vacuuming can be a real pain, especially when your trusted dirt companion is nothing more than a massive weight on wheels. Thankfully, consumer tech brands have come up with plenty of reimagined vacuum designs to take the heaving out of your next whole-home weekend cleaning. Wyze, the popular smart home company known for everything from smart lights to security cameras, is the latest name to jump on the vacuum wagon, and the results will give other suction stalwarts a run for their money.

Just announced, the Wyze Cordless Vacuum is available for pre-order with a jaw-dropping price point of only $119. Compare that to competitive vacuum names like Shark (cordless models starting around $199) and Dyson (cordless starting at $299). You may be wondering if lower cost means lesser performance. With most things Wyze, that’s simply not the case. This vacuum is no exception.

For starters, the vacuum itself runs off a dual-powered motor system. The core digital motor outputs up to 24,000 Pa of suction, with the ancillary brush head motor delivering another 9,500 Pa for the toughest messes your home can muster. With all that suction, it’s easy to imagine a vacuum that requires constant charging. Rest assured, Wyze has taken this into consideration. The vacuum comes with a single rechargeable battery that is guaranteed to last up to 50 minutes. If you purchase a second battery ($59), that’s close to 100 minutes of performance time.

In terms of cleaning speeds, there are three to choose from: Eco (7,000 Pa), Medium (15,000 Pa), and Turbo (24,000 Pa). Switching between tiers of suction is as simple as making a selection on the vacuum’s easy-to-read LED touchscreen. Whatever detritus the vacuum takes in is funneled through a three-stage filtration system, starting with the vacuum cyclone itself and ending with a HEPA filter that blocks nearly all finer air particles from affecting your living space.

Weighing in at only 2.8 pounds, the vacuum is also a breeze to move throughout the multiple rooms and floors of any home. With an easy-empty dust cap and a handy mounting bracket for elevating your closet space, the Wyze Cordless Vacuum is a testament to the Wyze way: Competitively priced consumer tech with features and performance matching the abilities of much higher-priced products. Pre-orders are live right now through Wyze’s site, with vacuums expected to begin shipping in July. Get online and snag your Wyze Cordless Vacuum today!

This new robot vacuum competes with rivals nearly twice its price
The Yeedi C12 Pro Plus in its dock.

Ecovacs is a popular name in the world of robot vacuums, but its lineup is often remarkably expensive. The X2 Combo, for example, costs $1,600. However, the company has a sub-brand named Yeedi that offers more affordable products, and its new Yeedi C12 Pro Plus looks like a great alternative for frugal shoppers.

The Yeedi C12 Pro Plus is currently available for just $350 ahead of its June 1 launch, though its regular $600 price tag is leagues better than the $1,600 X2 Combo or $1,900 Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. But despite the lower price tag, Yeedi packed the C12 Pro Plus with impressive features. The robot produces up to 8,000Pa of suction, uses dual comb teeth and an updated roller brush to limit tangles, and runs for up to 300 minutes before needing to recharge at its docking station. Once vacuuming is done, it'll automatically empty its dustbin.

The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra connected to plumbing.

Robot vacuums don't have the most creative names. The vast majority of products available today largely carry names comprised of a random assortment of numbers and words, and it can be hard to discern how one product compares to another unless you do some serious digging. That's especially true of the Dreame X40 Ultra and Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra, which both carry a hodgepodge of characters followed by the "Ultra" moniker. But naming quirks aside, there's no denying these are two of the best robot vacuums money can buy.

That begs the question -- should you purchase the Dreame X40 Ultra or Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra for your smart home? You truly can't go wrong with either, but here's a closer look at both to ensure you're getting the right robot for your needs.
