The vacuum cleaner field has gotten crowded in recent years, with cordless options, mop-vacuum combos, robot vacuums, and everything in between. And that's actually a good thing for deal hunters because they're all competing for your business. This golden age of vacuums also means each one is finding its price niche. You can go feature-heavy and fancy, or go budget friendly.
Speaking of budget friendly, a lot more vacuums enter that territory during Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale (Oct. 7 - 8). We often see 20% - 40% off vacuums, which can add up to a big discount when the original price is $200 or more.
Yes, we're sharing all our favorite Amazon deals here, but if you're looking at vacuums specifically, here are a bunch of options for under $400(ish) and some for under $200. We’re not picking a best overall, or ranking these, because these are all excellent deals. In short, if you're looking to replace your vacuum, now's the time. (It's a smart time to shop for household cleaning essentials too).

The Best Vacuum Deal if You Want a Workhorse Vacuum on a Budget
Yes, there are cheaper vacuums, but they're not beloved by 100k+ reviewers like the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe Vacuum. Some things never change, and we always see this humble upright vacuum on sale like clockwork during Amazon's major sales.
We rarely see vacuums as well-reviewed as this one is, with happy customers sharing before and after photos of their carpets. Reviewers like how much this product does almost as good a job as the pricier options.
The Best Mop-Vac Combo if You Never Even Want to Think About Vacuuming or Mopping Again
The iRobot Roomba Plus Robot Vacuum and Mop with AutoWash Dock is $399.99 during Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale. It's normally $669.95, so you're saving 40%.
This feature-heavy robot vac-and-mop combo allows you to set it and forget it. Program in a cleaning routine, and this thing vacuums and mops and then docks itself. The auto-emptying dock holds 75 days worth of grime, so you only have to think about the vacuum every month-and-a-half.
The Best Mop-Vac Combo if You're Trying to Save Money and Are Willing to Push the Vacuum Yourself
Amazon has the Shark HydroVac wet and dry vacuum for $70 off ($179.99, down from $249.99). Cordless vacuums do have their place, but if you don't mind corded, this one is ready to go at any time. It cleans up wet and dry messes on pretty much any sealed hard surface, including tile, hardwood, marble, and laminate. It also works on low-pile area rugs, if you use the dry setting.
This is the same price we saw this product hit last Prime Day.
The Best Deal if You Really Want a Dyson
Prime Big Deal Days is a smart time to shop for usually pricier brands like Dyson, and this $299.99 deal on the Dyson V8 Plus Cordless Vacuum is a 33% discount. This is $50 cheaper than the July Prime Day sale and the same price we saw last Black Friday. This product gets high reviews for its durability, longevity, and low weight, which makes it easy to make it your only vacuum (it's usable on hard floors, carpet, and in your car).
Best Vacuum Deal for Pet Parents
The Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro Wet Dry Vacuum/Mop has dropped from $269.99 to $179.99, putting this one at the under $200 sweet spot, and it's $20 cheaper than we saw during Prime Day in July.
Plenty of vacuums claim they can handle your pet hair and dander, but this one's got a 4-star rating and over 27,000 reviews that suggest this one actually does. Reviewers appreciate that it doesn't clog and that the brushes don't tangle. Plus, reviewers mention that its suction power gets pet hair out of high-pile carpet.
