A Black Friday Roomba deal is a great opportunity to pick up one of these smart home-helpers at a bargain price. iRobot's Roomba line was the first to popularize robovacs, and remains one the best robot vacuum ranges around.
The iRobot range is confusing, with a lot of models that look the same and have similar names. The main thing to know is that if the name starts with 'Combo', it's a combination vacuum and mop, and if there's a '+' or 'Plus' on the end, it comes with a dock that will automatically empty the onboard dust cup. This Roomba range guide runs through the key differences between various models beyond that.
These days, the Black Friday deals include just about anything, but robot vacuums always attract plenty of big discounts in these seasonal sales. iRobot is a great brand to focus on, with its Roomba range consistently scoring highly in our reviews. However, if you want to see what you might get from another brand, we also have a general roundup of Black Friday robot vacuum deals that's worth checking out.
Right now there are tons of Roomba deals live in the US, with hefty discounts at a range of retailers. In the UK, Roombas are only sold direct at iRobot or via Amazon, and while the latter has come through with some strong price-drops, they're appearing and disappearing very quickly. If you spot a deal you like the look of, it's worth buying it immediately.

Black Friday Roomba deals 2024: FAQs
When did Black Friday Roomba deals start in 2024?
Black Friday is always the final Friday of the month, so this year it's Friday 29 November. However, long gone are the times when the deals were confined to one day only. Black Friday sales typically start a week or two before the official date, and this year there have been early sales from the start of November.
Some retailers will reserve their very best prices for Black Friday itself, but others will run the same deals throughout the whole sales period. We'll be adding all the best Roomba Black Friday deals to this article as soon as they start to appear, so bookmark this page and check back.
The Black Friday offers will morph into Cyber Monday deals on or before Monday 2 December.
Is Black Friday the best time to buy a Roomba?
Probably. While it is possible to find Roomba discounts at various points throughout the year, Black Friday will deliver the widest range of deals and the most choice for customers. All the major retailers will have a sale on, and many will be competing to gain your custom. You'll have a huge amount of choice, and you'll also have the benefit of being able to shop around and compare deals at different retailers. Many brands and retailers use the Black Friday sales to offer the lowest prices of the year, and even when that's not the case, the deals are always very strong.
What Black Friday Roomba deals should I expect?
In last year's Roomba Black Friday deals, the biggest offers cut nearly 50% off, and some models dropped to record-low prices. We saw discounts on top models like the Roomba Combo j7+ and Roomba s9+, as well as offers on more budget-friendly models. Remember that iRobot typically does multiple versions of the same robovac, adding things like mopping capabilities and a self-empty docks, so you can pick the version that suits your needs and budget.
iRobot will likely run its own Black Friday sale, but we're also expecting to see deals at Amazon, Best Buy, Lowe's, Walmart, and Target.
