Roborock’s Q5 Pro, the best robovac for families with pets, is nearly half off

If you’re looking for a way to quickly wrap up your spring cleaning, robot vacuums make for great cleaning assistants that can help you do so with just the press of a button. And right now, one of our favorite models has plunged to a new all-time low, with both Amazon and Roborock selling the Roborock Q5 Pro for $259.99 ($170 off).

The midrange Q5 Pro is a powerful cleaning machine with dual rubber roller brushes and 5,500Pa of suction power, which allows it to suck up pet hair, dirt, and debris from carpets exceptionally well without getting tangled up. It also comes with a removable mopping pad so you can clean up the finer dust the vacuum didn’t catch, along with a large 770ml bin that prevents you from having to empty it every day. Sadly, it doesn’t sport AI-obstacle avoidance, but it still features its own set of tricks, including lidar mapping and navigation, the ability to set digital keep-out zones, and support for Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri.
