Our top robot vacuum pick overall, the Dreame D10 Plus, is available at a 35% discount ahead of Prime Day. At $260, this is a match for the lowest we’ve seen it. It seems too good to be true at this price — with features like a self-emptying dustbin and a built-in mopping pad that usually cost hundreds more — but it kept up with higher-priced alternatives in our testing, making it an easy recommendation.
This smart vacuum works with Alexa, so you can control the vacuum with any Alexa device and even your phone. It also features a tri-brush system that includes side brushes, channel brushes and a multisurface brush roll to pick up every last piece of dirt and debris on your floors.
This two-in-one robot works great on any floor. It can be used on tile, hardwood and carpets, so you don’t need to get multiple devices for different floors. This device is also operated by Alexa and works with any Alexa device. Another cool feature is that this robot charges itself. When the battery is running low, this smart robot will take itself back to its charging station to recharge.
Keep in mind, this offer is exclusive to Prime members.
Yeedi, a sub-brand of Ecovacs, is running several Prime Day deals on its affordable robot vacuums, but this 38% price cut on the self-emptying C12 Pro Plus is among the best. Not only can it vac your floors for you, but it will also mop hard floors. It’s over $200 off right now.
This robot vacuum also works on multiple floor types. It comes with a self-emptying station, and the bagless system keeps dust and debris contained for up to 45 days. This E10 vacuum is also compatible with Alexa devices.
This deal is exclusive to Prime members. Non-Prime members can save $220, lowering the price to $480.
This fancy vacuum is ideal for large spaces, as it can cover up to 4,305 square feet of flooring. It has powerful suction, so you can ensure every last piece of dust or debris is taken care of. It also features auto mop lifting, meaning the robot can automatically switch to mopping when it detects that it is needed, allowing you to truly sit back and relax.
This offer is only available for Prime members.

What is Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale?
Amazon’s October Prime Day event is officially called Prime Big Deal Days, but the shopping extravaganza essentially functions as a second Amazon Prime Day event ahead of the holiday season. If you’ve never shopped during a Prime Day sale before, you might be wondering exactly what it entails, so here’s a brief explainer. It’s a two-day Amazon sale that will offer exclusive savings to Amazon Prime subscribers with limited-time offers, flash deals and rock-bottom prices. It’s a rare chance to score Black Friday-level pricing outside of November, so it’s usually well worth shopping.
When is Amazon’s October Prime Day 2024 event?
Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days — also known as the October Prime Day event — are Oct. 8 and Oct. 9 this year. Although the sale event is still a week away, you can take advantage of some early deals right now. Generally speaking, the deals will end at midnight on Oct. 9 this time around. Some deals may linger beyond the set times of the sale event.
How does October Prime Day compare to July Prime Day?
There are lots of similarities between the two sales. Many of the same deals return during the October sale, especially on Amazon’s own devices, such as Blink and Ring home security devices, Fire TVs and tablets, Echo devices and more.
The main difference is related to the timing of the sale. Since July Prime Day is in the summer, there’s more focus on back-to-school and outdoor deals. This includes school supplies, grills, lawnmowers and more. During October Prime Day, we see more deals geared toward the upcoming holiday season, such as kitchenware for a Thanksgiving meal or toys and games for kids for Christmas.
How does Amazon’s October Prime Day sale work?
The idea behind the sale is pretty simple: Subscribers to Amazon’s Prime service can get exclusive discounts on thousands of products and services across the site during a limited period. The products, while still available to non-Prime members, will have extra savings for members, with many prices dropping down to new all-time lows.
When you’re logged in to your Prime account and looking at a product landing page, you’ll see the discounted price if it’s on sale. You don’t usually need any special coupon codes, nor is there a need to use a specific payment method to get the discounts. If you spend your money wisely each year, you can easily make back your Prime membership cost in savings during the event.
