As Prime Day 2022 winds down, we’ve stopped updating this post, and we can’t guarantee that all deals are still in stock. Check our Deals page for our latest finds.
It’s time to clean up on Prime Day by nabbing the best deals on Wirecutter-recommended cleaning and organizing essentials. We’ve scoured the internet, scrubbed away all the lousy discounts, and neatly organized only the best ones below so that all you have to do is mop up the real deals.
ChomChom Pet Hair Remover Deal price: $18; street price: $25
Update: Down an additional $2 with the clipped on-page coupon. Did you know you should ideally clean your pet's bed at least once a week? But before you just throw it in the wash, you'll need to remove any dirt, fur buildup, or other debris that may be caked into the fabric. In testing, we've found a reusable lint roller the best tool for the job, and we prefer the ChomChom Pet Hair Remover because it's portable, reusable, and easier to maneuver than a vacuum cleaner. Down to $20, this Lightning Deal certainly makes it worth your while.

Muji Stainless Steel Basket (Sliding Type) Deal price: $36; street price: $39 (use code WELCOME10)
The Muji Stainless Steel Basket takes up little room and makes washing dishes a breeze. No need to use counter space—this dish rack slides and locks into place, using your sink as a basin. And you can also easily take it out if you need the full width of your sink. Pair it with a stainless utensil basket to make a complete in-sink drying station. Use promo code WELCOME10 to get this discounted price, which includes the cost of shipping.

Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe NV360 Vacuum (Blue) Deal price: $120; street price: $165
A capable, lightweight, and well-rounded cleaner, this reliable, low-maintenance vacuum can quietly clean nearly any kind of flooring. Our runner-up upright canister vacuum pick is nearly identical to our top pick in every meaningful way (and only differing slightly with tool sets, bin size, color, and button placement).

iRobot Roomba i3 EVO Robot Vacuum (Refurbished) Deal price: $180 on eBay; street price: $250
We’ve tested dozens of robot vacuums, and we’ve concluded that the iRobot Roomba i3 EVO will do a great job of cleaning a variety of homes. An ideal choice for larger spaces with rugs or shedding pets, our pick for the best robot vacuum surpasses less expensive models with its strong suction, tangle-resistant brushes, and smart navigation. In addition, the Roomba i3 boasts features like Reactive Sensor Technology and Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility. At $180 with code SUMMER20SAVE, this price is the lowest we’ve seen for a certified-refurbished unit of this excellent robovac.

iRobot Roomba i7 Robot Vacuum (Refurbished) Deal price: $248; street price: $400
The Roomba i7 is a smarter variant of our top robot vacuum pick, the i3 EVO. Offering great navigation with the ability to clean or ignore certain rooms, the i7 is great for complicated house layouts. Though this is an older robot vac, and we have seen some slightly better deals in the past, you can bring the price down to $248 for a refurbished model with the code SUMMER20SAVE. If you’re worried about purchasing a manufacturer-refurbished model, this deal also includes a two-year Allstate warranty for some added peace of mind.

iRobot Roomba 692 Robot Vacuum Deal price: $180; street price: $280
The iRobot Roomba 600 series has been a long-standing favorite among our reviewers. The Roomba 692 is no exception, and it’s similar to our current budget pick, the Roomba 694. This Wi-Fi–enabled model works with either Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa to help you build your perfect smart home. The 600 series comes in a few variants, but Roomba models whose designations start with a 6 are mostly the same, save for varying Wi-Fi capabilities and some aesthetic differences. Like many Roomba models, the 692 is more repairable than bots from other brands. Down to $180, this deal is only a few dollars more than the lowest price we’ve seen for this model, and it matches the best price we’ve seen on the bot this year.

Eufy RoboVac 35C Robot Vacuum Deal price: $120 at Woot; street price: $180
Eufy RoboVac 35C Robot Vacuum Deal price: $150 at Verizon; street price: $290
This Eufy vac is a variant of our budget robot vacuum pick, the Eufy 11S. The slim and quiet 35C offers a touch control panel as well as a Wi-Fi connection, which allows you to control it from your smartphone. After testing it, we believe it’s best suited for small spaces and will do best on hard surfaces or low- to medium-pile carpets. We’ve seen a better price for the 35C in the past, but the current price of $150 is still a solid discount.

iRobot Braava Jet m6 Robot Mop Deal price: $300; street price: $400
If you want to use a smart-home app to control when and where your robot mop cleans, or if you want to be able to mop multiple rooms at a time (up to 1,000 square feet), we recommend the iRobot Braava Jet m6, the upgrade mop pick from our guide. The Jet m6’s bigger battery, larger water tank, and more sophisticated navigation system make it ideal for big spaces. A built-in camera helps this bot learn the layout of your home after two or three cleaning sessions per level. In our testing, though, we found that it can’t make floors sparkle like a dedicated hand mop, and it struggled with rug edges and thresholds.

Roborock S5 Max Robot Vacuum and Mop (Refurbished) (eBay) Deal price: $264 with promo code SUMMER20SAVE; street price: $380
If you want a bot that can multitask, you may like a robot vacuum-mop combo. In our testing, we’ve found that these bots aren’t quite as good at each task as a dedicated robot vacuum or robot mop, respectively. Even so, they can be handy in the right situation. The combo pick in our robot mop guide, the S5 Max is one among many great options that can both vacuum and (kind of) mop, but Roborock has a better reputation than other combo-bot brands. If you’re already seeking a robo vac and your mopping needs are modest, the S5 Max can be a solid choice. A refurbished S5 Max is back down to the previous low when you use promo code SUMMER20SAVE.

Roborock S5 Max Robot Vacuum and Mop (New) (Amazon) Deal price: $350; street price: $480
Roborock S5 Max Robot Vacuum and Mop (New) (Walmart) Deal price: $350; street price: $480
A feature-packed vacuum and mop combo, the S5 Max has an advanced obstacle-recognition camera system and a plethora of handy controls. While combo bots don’t apply as much downward pressure or scrubbing action as dedicated robot mops do, they combine the cleaning power of a standalone robot vacuum with that of a wet Swiffer, making them a nice option for floors that already stay relatively clean. And to top it all off, this is the lowest price we've ever seen on the S5 in new condition.

Bissell CrossWave Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $200 at Amazon; street price: $227
Bissell CrossWave Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $200 at Target; street price: $227
If you regularly need to clean dirty floors quickly, you might like a vacuum-mop combo. Our main pick, the classic CrossWave, gets floors near-spotless more quickly than any other floor-care tool, including cordless vac-mop combos. In testing, this strong and durable plug-in model sucked up solid debris, slurped up spills, and wiped away stains—all at the same time. Fair warning: Regular maintenance is essential, but that’s true of all the mop-vacuums we’ve tested.

Bissell CrossWave Pet Pro Mop-Vacuum Combo Deal price: $210; street price: $300
The Bissell CrossWave Pet Pro is essentially the same machine as the standard CrossWave, but it’s better at cleaning up pet hair thanks to special brushes and detergent. Like the standard version, it’s quick at sucking up debris and spills, as well as wiping away stains.

Black+Decker 16V Max Lithium DustBuster Hand Vacuum CHV1410L Deal price: $40; street price: $55
If you need something simple for quick cleanups around the house or in your car, this small, affordable cordless handheld vacuum gets the job done. In testing, the CHV1410L reached awkward spots and was decent at sucking up pet hair from upholstery, though it’s probably best if you need to use a hand vacuum only occasionally. The CHV1410L has a 12-minute run time and recharges faster than most other comparable models. At $40, this deal matches the previous lowest price we’ve seen.

Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip (KP303) Deal price: $23; street price: $28
Whether you’re outfitting a home office, a guest space, or any other area where you need outlets for many devices, a good power strip can help keep all those cords organized. The Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip (KP303) is similar to our smart power strip pick, the Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip (HS300), but it’s smaller and lacks energy monitoring, which might be a dealbreaker for some people. It comes with three outlets and two USB ports and can handle five devices at a time. This model is worth considering if you want to spend less than $30 on a power strip.

Epson FastFoto FF-680W Portable Document Scanner Deal price: $500 at Amazon; street price: $550
Epson FastFoto FF-680W Portable Document Scanner Deal price: $500 at Best Buy; street price: $550
Creating digital copies of important documents and old photos means you can get rid of all that paper cluttering closets and filing cabinets. Unlike most traditional scanners, which can bend documents and photos, the Epson FastFoto FF-680W quickly and reliably produces high-resolution photo scans without damaging the original. After testing it, we particularly appreciated our upgrade pick’s rapid-fire photo scanning abilities, though it costs and weighs more than our other portable document scanner picks.

Bissell Little Green 1400M Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner Deal price: $79; street price: $100
Down to a new low price, this Walmart-exclusive version of our top portable carpet and upholstery cleaner pick is nearly identical to the Little Green 1400B. The only notable differences are the color and the lack of a "HydroRinse Self-Cleaning Tool" which we think is mostly a gimmick, and available for purchase separately if you really want it. It's been a year since we've seen a decent sale on this model, so it's a great time to pick up this spot carpet cleaner.
