The Roomba i6+ regularly goes for $799.99, but it’s currently down to $549.98 at Amazon, saving you a whopping $250.01. We haven't seen this price since back in mid-February, so if you missed our chance to pick up this popular vacuum then, now is the time to spring for it.
When we tested the i6+, our reviewers were pleased to find it offered up the same top-notch performance as the brand's i7+ robot vacuum (our favorite robot vacuum, which is priced at $799.99), matching its 10.45 grams of dirt sucked up per run. That's roughly the same as a full-sized vacuum over the course of a week. The one downside? It doesn’t come with extra dust bags, a spare side brush or a spare filter—three items that normally come with the i7+ model. Since these two vacuums typically retail for the same price, you're normally better off going for the i7+, but this sale makes the i6+ worth a second look.
The i6+ works with the robust Home Genius Intelligence app.
Even cooler, it comes with a coveted docking station that's equipped self-emptying technology. With this base, you'll never again have to see all the dirt and grim that your machine sucks up. Instead, the i6+ will automatically empty its dust bin into inside the dock, and when it's filled, a suction feature located at the bottom will go into a self-sealing bag, too. What's more, you'll only have to throw the bag away around once a month, since it can hold around 3.8-liters of debris.
In addition to this awesome feature, we also loved the i6+ app. With it, your robo vac can learn the dimensions of specific rooms in your home and be scheduled for cleanings whenever it’s most convenient. You can also create event-based cleaning with the app, which is a great way to maximize usage of your machine.
If you’re in the market for a robotic vacuum to help you with all that cleaning, head over and check out the Roomba i6+. But don’t wait too long—this is an especially great deal.
