Vacuuming the house sucks. It’s time-consuming, hurts your back, and is just downright boring. Which is why the invention of the robot vacuum was an absolute game changer. 

The iRobot Roomba 980 is currently on sale at Walmart for $699. Normally, the robotic vacuum is listed at $899.99, which means this sale will save you a cool $200.

The 980 shows just how far the Roomba has come from the original models released back in 2002. Previously relying on a three-button setup for cleaning based on room size, the 980 connects to your WiFi network and works in tandem with the iRobot HOME App. The app lets you tell the Roomba to start cleaning, along with scheduling and customizing cleaning preferences. 

When cleaning, the Roomba can navigate to avoid obstacles while cleaning. It will run for two hours before it needs a recharge, but once it’s refueled it will start going again. And, as an added bonus, you can connect the Roomba to your Amazon Echo or Google Home so it will respond to voice commands.

Snag the Roomba 980 from Walmart while it’s one sale and save $200.
