Good news, folks! Wellbots is currently taking up to $200 off cat Ubers — err, robot vacuums. Okay, so it might not be the most exciting news of the week, but most people would agree that there’s nothing fun about cleaning. Fortunately, robot vacuums like iRobot’s Roomba j7 and Roomba i3 Plus EVO can speed up the whole process and make it a lot less practical.
Right now, you can pick up the Roomba j7, our favorite robot vacuum, for just $399 ($200 off) at Wellbots when you use promo code THEVERGE200 at checkout, matching the robovac’s lowest price yet. The vacuum offers a host of great features, including scheduling, obstacle avoidance, the ability to map out your home layout, and Alexa, Google, and Siri support so you can start or stop the vacuum using only your voice. Plus, it’s not likely to sit on top of your pet’s poop, and if it does, you’ll get a new one for free within the first year of ownership.
While the base j7 doesn’t include a self-emptying docking station like the more expensive j7, the latter is also on sale at Wellbots for $599 instead of $799 when you use the same promo code (THEVERGE200) on the purchase Read our Roomba j7 Plus review.
iRobot Roomba j7
The Roomba j7 features an obstacle avoidance system that lets it navigate around furniture and smaller objects it deems dangerous. In addition to cleaning on a set schedule, the j7 can also start work using voice commands or the Roomba app. Right now, you can buy the Wellbots robovac for $399 ($200 off) when you apply promo code THEVERGE200 at checkout.
iRobot Roomba j7 Plus
The j7 Plus is good at avoiding obstacles, has good battery life and comes with a self-emptying docking station. Plus, iRobot will replace the vacuum for free if it runs over pet waste within the first year of ownership. For a limited time, you can buy it at Wellbots for $599 ($200 off) when you use promo code THEVERGE200 at checkout.
If the Roomba j7 and j7 Plus are too expensive for you, Wellbots is also knocking $150 off the Roomba i3 Plus EVO. We think this is the best self-emptying robot vacuum around, and right now you can get it for just $399.99 ($150 off), one of its best prices yet, when you use promo code THEVERGE150 at checkout .
In terms of features, this excellent robovac shares the same level of suction as the Roomba j7, along with almost the same battery life. It also offers voice controls, scheduling, and smart mapping, so you can tell the vacuum to stay away from rooms that might get a little more messy (it happens). Just be aware that the i3 Evo can’t avoid obstacles and occasionally crashes into things like chairs, probably because it doesn’t have an onboard camera.
iRobot Roomba i3 Plus EVO
Like its more expensive j7 Plus counterpart, the more spartan iRobot Roomba i3 Plus Evo uses two rubber brushes and a side brush to clean. It makes up for its simpler features with a lower price and excellent software updates that have added functionality. You can buy it with an included auto-empty base for $399 instead of $549 from Wellbots when you use the code THEVERGE150 at checkout.
