Amazon Prime Day is a peak time to make upgrades to home tech, with some steep discounts on gadgets that might feel like too much of a splurge at list price. If you've been considering letting a machine take over vacuuming responsibilities in your house, then the Shark AI Ultra Robot Vacuum is on sale for just 300. That's the lowest price we've seen for this gadget; normally you need to shell out up to 420 to add it to your housework routine. The model on sale today is a version of the one we found to be a top all-around performer in our tests of robot vacuums. Save 120 on this mid-range robot vacuum model.

If you want help tidying up your humble abode, you've come to the right place. Best Buy's selling the Shark Matrix (self-emptying!) robot vacuum for $299.99, This vacuum has precision home mapping, a maximum runtime of 90 minutes, and a self-cleaning brush roll. Personally, I hate pulling hair off of the brush roll on these things, so that feature is a major plus in my book. It also includes a self-empty base as well as one side brush. The precision home mapping feature is pretty rad, if I do say so myself.

Shark makes some of the best robot vacuums around and you can currently save quite a bit on a self-emptying model. The device is 50 percent off as it has dropped to $300 at Amazon. That's the lowest price we've seen for it to date. The Shark IQ Robot has a bagless, self-emptying base and home-mapping tech, along with Alexa and Google Assistant support. Robot vacuums are an excellent quality of life upgrade for many people compared with having to clean floors manually with a standard vacuum.
