Between pets, dust and everyday wear, it's hard to keep your floors clean, especially during the holiday season. Manual vacuuming can be a drag, but thankfully robot vacuums can lend a hand and do the vacuuming for you. However, they can be a bit pricey. Thankfully, we found a great deal on the Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum.
The robovac is now almost half off at just $300 on Amazon, down from the usual list price of $599. It even makes a great gift for a new homeowner in your life. That said, you may want to act fast if you want to snag this deal, as pricing can change quickly and the best deals are selling out the closer we get to the holidays.
The Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum includes voice command, a 60-day capacity, object detection, lidar precision home mapping and 360-degree sensors. It also has HEPA filtration, which captures and traps 99.97% of dust and allergens. It's suitable for carpets or hard floor surfaces. It also has a feature called "Matrix Clean Navigation," which enables the robot vacuum to make multiple passes in a grid so no spots are left behind.

When the vacuum's battery runs low it returns to the dock for a recharge and then it'll pick up where it left off. You can also set schedules so that it cleans automatically when it's most convenient for you. Plus, you can initiate on-demand cleaning, including targeted deep cleaning of high-traffic areas whenever you need to and you can do it all with voice control via Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.
Because the included XL self-emptying base holds up to 60 days of dirt, dust and debris, you will only need to empty it every two months on average, taking a little bit more off your plate.

Why this deal matters
This robot vacuum hasn't been on sale in a decent amount of time. The last time we saw it on sale was during the July Amazon Prime Day sale event. Back then it was down to $295, the record-low price. Since this robot vacuum doesn't go on sale often and it's currently only $5 more than the all-time low, it's definitely a deal worth taking advantage of.
