If you want your home cleaned with a robot that does minimal work for you, Wellbots has a deal for you. The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max Robot + AutoWash Dock has a weird name, but it has a ton of great features. This machine vacuums, mops, cleans up messes on its own, refills its mopping solution, and washes and dries its mopping pads. You can get the robovac for $425 with coupon code ENGBF425.
Launched this summer, the (deep breath) Roomba Combo 10 Max Robot + AutoWash Dock is iRobot’s most advanced (and expensive) robot vacuum yet. Although its $1,399 MSRP price puts it out of most homes, this deal is more reasonable for those who don’t mind buying a great cleaner that lets you spend your time doing something fun.
On hard floors, it can vacuum and mop simultaneously. In addition to its other sensors, the Roomba has a camera to detect dirt — and it can recognize the dirtiest areas eight times more often than other models.
The robot can map your home (like many models today), but iRobot says it does so seven times faster, automatically labeling room types. Its software uses past cleaning data to predict the cleanliness of each room, adjusting its suction accordingly.

You can also save on the Roomba J9+ at Wellbots. The vacuum-only model has a three-stage cleaning system, multi-surface rubber brushes, and high-end suction power. (And it looks so stylish!) Normally priced at $899, our code ENGBF325 brings it down to $574.
For a more affordable vacuum/mop system, the Roomba Combo j7+ gives you a rock-solid wet-dry cleaner without all the cutting-edge bells and whistles in the highest-end models. This model has a 96.4 percent debris removal rating, obstacle avoidance, and a four-stage cleaning system.
It includes an edge-sweeping brush, dual multi-surface rubber brushes, and power-lifting suction. It can empty its contents without intervention for up to 60 days. Normally priced at $999, this model is on sale for $675 with coupon code ENGBF325.
