Save up to $150 with these promo codes

Slippers and scented body wash are so overplayed. This Mother’s Day, give the mom or mom figure in your life the ultimate gift of one less thing to worry about.

Chances are her mind’s been on spring cleaning lately: It’s that time of year again, after all, and being stuck inside for weeks on end has made a lot of us realize just how grody our homes actually are (especially if you live with a pet — shedding season is no joke). With that in mind, a new robot vacuum that does the *literal* dirty work for her could be just your ticket to Favorite Child status.

Conveniently, Shark’s put one of its smartest robot vacuums on sale ahead of Mother’s Day: The Shark IQ Robot Vacuum typically retails for $599.40, but if you enter the promo code MOM150 during checkout, you can slash its price by a solid $150 to bring it down to just under $450.

We’re huge fans of the fact that the robot vacuum in question (released last fall) sports a self-emptying, bagless base capable of holding up to 30 days of debris — you can pretty much forget about vacuuming for a whole month. It’ll also automatically return to that base if its battery gets low, so you don’t have to worry about it crapping out halfway through a cleaning session.

But the convenience doesn’t end there: There’s a smart mapping feature that lets you schedule whole-home cleanings or target certain rooms, depending on what’s dirtiest. Plus, it’s compatible with the Shark Clean app and popular virtual assistants (i.e., Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant) so you can control it from afar. 

Granted, not everyone wants (or needs) such a fancy-schmancy piece of cleaning technology. If you think Mom would be happier with an upgraded version of her existing upright or stick vacuum, you’re in luck — Shark’s Mother’s Day sale further includes the following models:
