A robot vacuum isn't saving you that much time if you have to follow it around to rescue it from getting stuck, or if you have to manually empty its tiny dustbin every single day. If you want a hands-off cleaning experience, you need one with smart mapping and a self-emptying base. And it just so happens, Amazon has a few options on sale right now.

This model uses LIDAR navigation to accurately map your floor plan and clean in a precise grid. And thanks to its HEPA filter, which traps dust, dander, and allergens, it's also a great choice for pet owners. You'll get up to 120 minutes of battery life on a single charge, and if it runs low mid-clean, it'll automatically return to the dock to recharge, then pick up right where it left off.

Its best feature, however, is its self-emptying base. It holds up to 60 days' worth of dirt, so you can largely forget about it for two months at a time. It's also entirely bagless, which means you won't be stuck paying for expensive replacement bags down the line.
