【Pilar Coll】

Amazon's decision to ghost its acquisition of iRobot in January 2024 hasn't kept Roombas from participating in any of Amazon's big sale events. Its now-live Big Spring Sale (from March 25 to 31) has been no different,Pilar Coll though Roomba deals have been trickling in slower than robot vacuums on sale from other brands.

Either way, Amazon's Big Spring Sale might not be the wisest time to buy a Roomba this year. It just so happens that iRobot casually completely overhauled the Roomba lineup in the middle of March, with a fleet of new Roombas becoming available to purchase just two days before Amazon's sale starts.

This heavily deviates from iRobot's typical release schedule. Could it be an attempt to mitigate iRobot's increasingly bleak financial situation as of late? Unclear, but I do know that iRobot finally closed most of the gaps its previous lineup had, feature-wise and cost-efficiency wise — so opting for one of those may be a smarter purchase, even if they're at full price. Only a few older Roombas on sale now would be a worthwhile purchase over these new packed ones (especially when robot vacuums on sale from Roborock and Dreame have more features for less money).

I'm tracking the worthwhile Roomba deals at Amazon's Big Spring Sale below, and will give a specific shout out if any deals pop up that'd be worthwhile over another brand. Note: Any deal marked with a 🔥 has dropped to a record-low price at Amazon.
