If your 2026 goal involves a deep clean, you’re probably already dreading the manual labor. While you can't exactly outsource the closet decluttering to an algorithm, you can at least stop pushing a vacuum around every day.
As of Dec. 31, the Shark AI Ultra Robot Vacuum (AV2501S) is on sale for $249.99, down from $549.99, at Amazon. That's a 55% discount or a $300 price cut. It's also a pretty good deal for a robot vacuum with a self-empty base (usually these go for $400+).
This vacuum uses Matrix Clean Navigation to scrub the floor in a precise grid pattern. It takes multiple passes over the same spots to ensure no pet hair survives the trip. The 360-degree LiDAR vision allows the robot to map your home and dodge obstacles in total darkness.
The best feature for the lazy (or the busy) is the bagless, self-emptying base. After every run, the robot dumps its own bin into a storage unit that holds up to 30 days of debris. The base also uses HEPA filtration to trap 99.97 percent of dust and allergens. It's an easy way to improve your air quality without actually doing any work.
