In a perfect world, having a robot vacuum would mean kicking back and relaxing while your handy device does everything for you. In reality, many require you to empty them out on a regular basis. Well, Amazon has a mega-sale happening right now on a robot vacuum that's truly hands off.

It's called the Shark AV2501S AI and, right this second, it's discounted by a whopping $250!

And there's so much more to love about this vacuum. It works in rows to make sure every little inch is covered and features a self-cleaning brush roll, so you don't have to stress about hair getting wrapped around it and shutting the whole thing down.

To use this powerful vac, simply map out the areas you want cleaned in your home using the SharkClean app and let it go to work. You can also clean on demand using the app — or Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant if you don't feel like pulling out your phone.

Sound like a dream to have one of these robot vacuums in your home? It is, according to plenty of happy customers.

"Not having to worry about emptying the dustbin...is a game changer and the Ultra Clean mode is great for picking up daughter's long hair off of the floor in her room in addition to all the crumbs that seem to litter the kitchen floor/table," said a five-star fan. "The app is super easy to set up. I'm really happy with the Shark robot and would definitely recommend to others."

A fellow happy home cleaner called this vacuum "great for busy parents," writing, "It makes its way around furniture, obstacles and does a good job of cleaning under furniture as well. My teenagers dislike sweeping the floor, and this eliminates the arguments and chasing them down to do it."

Again, this jaw-dropping sale won't last forever — don't miss your chance to save big!
