Black Friday Insider: The 5 best robot vacuum cleaners and stick vacuum cleaner offers

Black Friday: The 5 best deals on vacuum cleaners

• Ecovacs Deebot N20 $ 253,00 $ 239,00
• Roborock Qrevo S $ 799,99 $ 479,99
• Dreame L10s Ultra Gen2 vacuum and mopping robot $ 699,00 $ 499,00

Robot vacuum cleaners have become an integral part of many households. The devices are getting better and better. Most of the small household helpers in 2024 also have a mopping system; they vacuum and mop in one go. However, the price range is large, ranging from 100 dollars to 1,500 dollars.

Differences that would justify this are often not visible to the naked eye. This makes choosing the right model difficult, especially since suppliers such as Ecovacs, Dreame and Robrock offer high discounts on Black Friday.

Robot vacuum cleaner or stick vacuum cleaner?

If you're wondering whether it's better to go for the cheap robot vacuum cleaner at Aldi or whether a few more dollars would be a good investment for the robot vacuum cleaner bargain on Amazon, you've come to the right place. We'll tell you which model you need, show you the best offers and clarify the question of whether you should add a stick vacuum cleaner to the robot vacuum cleaner or whether such a robot vacuum cleaner is a better choice for you instead of a robot vacuum cleaner.

In general, it can be said that purchasing a robot vacuum cleaner makes sense the more people there are in your household. Because the more dirt there is every day – especially when pets are involved. For singles without a pet, however, a cordless stick vacuum cleaner should serve just as well. But buying a robot vacuum cleaner can also be worthwhile here – for example if you are very busy at work or simply don't feel like cleaning.

Why it's worth spending more money on a robot vacuum cleaner

If you decide on a vacuum robot, we would advise you against cheap models around 100 dollars. Because the technology it contains is no longer up to date. While modern models navigate through apartments without accidents using sensors and cameras, the cheaper models work according to the chaos principle. In other words: They drive straight ahead and vacuum the ground until they come across an obstacle, then they turn and drive in a different direction until they reach the next obstacle.

This way of working is not only inefficient, it also poses risks for pets and your belongings. So you have to clean up properly before cleaning so that the robot doesn't get stuck after a few centimeters. This means the time savings are gone. Our advice: Get a good vacuum robot with a discount on Black Friday – such as the Ecovacs Deebot N20. You can get this on Amazon on Black Friday for just 239.99 dollars.

Ecovacs Deebot N20

The suction power of 8,000 Pascal is particularly noteworthy for this price range, making the device also suitable for cleaning carpets. The model also gets along well with pets. The manufacturer's ZeroTangle technology is intended to prevent animal hair from getting caught in the brush and blocking the cleaning process. A wiping function is also on board. However, you don't have to use a suction station with this Black Friday offer.

The vacuum robot can empty itself independently in the suction station; in more expensive models it is even cleaned there automatically. Robots with suction stations minimize the workload for you even more. They are also recommended for allergy sufferers, as this avoids contact with dust particles when cleaning the robot vacuum cleaner.

Roborock Qrevo S

Although there is Ecovacs N20 with suction station as N20 Plus for 60 dollars to buy more. However, the station can only empty the robot's dust container and not clean the mop. The Roborock Qrevo S, on the other hand, comes with a multifunctional docking station in which the mop is also cleaned and even dried automatically. However, the suction power of 7,000 Pascal is lower than that of the Ecovacs model.

Dreame L10s Ultra Gen2

Don't you like the Roborock Qrevo S or is the offer already sold out? Then the Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 2 is also a good choice. The model costs 499 dollars instead of 699 dollars on Black Friday at Coolblue and is therefore only 20 dollars more expensive than the Qrevo S. However, it offers significantly more suction power at 10,000 Pascal – which makes it the better choice for pet owners.

Do you hate cleaning like the plague? Then you should consider purchasing the Dreame X40 Ultra Complete. Admittedly, at 999 dollars, the robot is not a bargain even on Black Friday, despite a 500 euro discount compared to the RRP. But the money is well invested. The vacuum robot has been topping our best list for months and not without reason.

Dreame X40 Ultra Complete vacuum and mopping robot

Thanks to laser navigation and camera, it moves easily through the apartment. Only light rugs and small carpets caused problems for the Dreame X40 Ultra Complete in the test and should be removed before the cleaning process. In addition, thanks to the extendable side brush, the Dreame vacuum robot can now also get into corners and clean there too. With cheaper models, however, you have to do it yourself.

Ideal for fine work: With this stick vacuum cleaner you can get into every corner

A battery-operated stick vacuum cleaner is ideal for these and other fine jobs, unless the robot vacuum cleaner can do them directly. With it you can quickly move freely through the apartment and don't have to worry about a cable getting tangled in a chair leg. The manufacturer Dyson is considered a leader in this area. However, the models are not cheap, but start at 300 dollars for the Dyson V8.

For Black Friday you can get the much better model Dyson V11 Extra cheaper for a small additional charge. It offers higher performance, a larger dust container and, according to the manufacturer, 20 minutes longer battery life. This offer includes a motor bar electric brush, a combination accessory nozzle, a crevice tool, a mini electric brush and a flex adapter. This ensures that you can get into narrow spaces and hard-to-reach places.

Dream Z30

An alternative is the Dreame Z30, which is also currently on offer. However, compared to the Dyson model, it has a smaller dust collector, but offers more suction power.
