If Thanksgiving prep has taught me anything over the years, it’s that I absolutely detest laboring over the clean up process—both before guests arrive for dinner and after they leave. While a good vacuum doesn’t entirely obviate the chore, it does help make the job easier. Strong suction means that you don’t have to go over the same area multiple times, and if you opt for a robot vacuum and mop combo, you can mostly automate the process except where deep cleaning or spot cleaning is required.

With the most advanced models from Dyson, Roborock, iRobot, and more this year on sale for Black Friday, you can hopefully spend less time fretting about the state of your home and more time enjoying the holidays. Here are some of the top ones that we’ve tried that are on sale.
