New Year, New Roomba! If your vacuum's wheezing gets louder every time you turn it on, it's trying to tell you something: Replace me! And there's no time like the New Year to start over and give your home a deep clean with a new vac. Know what would help with that? Some killer after-Christmas sales!
Luckily, vacs are no longer clunky, hulking machines that have to be lugged around from room to room — they're lightweight, glide across the floor, and are possibly smarter than we are. And they also aren't as much of an investment as they once were — nowadays you can find an excellent sucker for a price that's more than reasonable and verges on awesome.
Whether you’re looking for a powerful stick vac, a smart upright, a robovac that will absolutely change your life (we’re serious), or anything in between, we’ve got the goods. Our thorough list of the best post-holiday vacuum sales is your one-stop shop. So, start your engines.
Dreaming of a world where you living space is continuously monitored for dust, dirt and pet hair without your having to lift a finger? Well, your dream's come true! Amazon's No. 1 bestselling iRobot Roomba maps out your space, plus it's smart enough to steer clear of stairs, furniture, toys and your pet's precious food bowl. Plus, you can program it via an easy-to-use app.
“This little machine is very powerful and saves me so much time," one of over 46,000 five-star shoppers shared. "I have such a floor area and didn't want to spend all day sweeping. It really does the job.”

The Dyson Cyclone V10 is like the Maserati of vacuums — it's stylish, sleek, and oh-so powerful. Cordless, this powerhouse has up to 40 minutes of fade-free suction. A Torque drive cleaner head gets bristles deep in carpets to remove the toughest caked-on dirt while a soft roller cleaner head is gentle on hard floors. Plus, with three power modes, you get a customized clean no matter what kind of job you're in for.
"We've tried all sorts of 'dog hair' vacs...none compare to this Dyson. The ease of use, portability, size, ease of emptying, power and conversion to the hand vac are exceptional. We gave away all of our other vacs," wrote one thrilled reviewer.
Whether your home is mostly carpet, bare wood or a mix of both, the Shark RV2001 AI Robot Vacuum can handle it. It intelligently maps your home, plus it's controlled by a smart app. It's ace at detecting pet hair and other debris too — just watch it go!
And don’t let the "renewed" tag fool you. Amazon has rigorously and professionally inspected, tested, and cleaned all of its refurbished products, so they’ll work and look like they're fresh from the factory. And know this: Amazon Renewed products are backed with a 90-day guarantee whereby the retail giant will replace the item or completely refund your purchase if you're not satisfied.
"I cannot say enough about this vacuum!" a shopper shared. "I love it so much! I have terrible asthma, and vacuuming with a traditional bag-less has always restarted my issue. Don’t even get me started on emptying the dust bin! This vacuum is a lifesaver, literally!

An added bonus: It has LED lights in the front, so you can home in on any areas you might've missed.
"Absolutely love this!" a shopper declared. "The LED lights on the front make it easy to see, easy to clean. The lift-away is amazing. I absolutely love this vacuum. It looks nice. Some vacuums look very bulky, but this one has just a nice clean look to it. Would recommend for anybody!"
