Yes, yes. We’re all here for the vacuum markdowns. But before you start scrolling this year’s Prime Day cleaning deals, give me a minute to fill you in on what else you might want to add to your cart today. Because there’s a whole world of cleaning supplies beyond vacuum cleaners—especially for the kitchen—and some of the lowest prices are 30%–50% off today.
For example, if you don’t have a dedicated air purifier for the kitchen, you probably should. Lucky for you there are really good sales on air purifiers for Prime Day, so you can get one for nearly half off the regular price. And if you love vacuum cleaners so much, have you ever tried a wet-dry vacuum mop? Because I truly believe the vacuum-mop combo will change your life. And while cleaning is technically a chore, picking up a few luxe extras like a nice apron or some fancy hand lotion make it feel a little bit nicer.
The absolute best Prime Day deals are without a doubt the major sales on our product test winners. In our test of the best mop vacuums, the Tineco Floor One S7 and the Tineco iFloor 3 do an excellent job at cleaning up messy spills, dirt, and other debris on tile and hardwood floors. As for the best vacuum cleaners, the Dyson V12 Detect Slim is our favorite cordless model, with smart features like a battery life display, a self-detangling attachment for pet owners, and a clever dustbin design for hygienic disposal.
Of course, there are some really great deals on vacuums of all varieties today, too: upright, stick, handheld, robot, and even Miele canister vacuums. So many vacuum deals.
And when I say these are “really great deals,” I mean it. I waded through thousands (yes, thousands!) of Amazon Prime Day deals and handpicked the best of the best. At the time of publication, everything on this list is at least 30% off, if not more.
Who can shop the Prime Day sale?
The best Amazon Prime Day deals are generally only available for Prime members, but this is a big shopping event, and there are still plenty of markdowns available to everyone on Amazon and elsewhere (most big retailers now have their own competing sales). If you aren’t an Amazon Prime member, it isn’t too late. You can sign up for a free 30-day trial Prime membership right now and get instant access to all the best deals.
Okay, now it’s time to check out the vacuum deals—and all the other good Prime Day cleaning deals, of course. I’ll continue to watch Amazon and other retailers for last-minute deals, too, so be sure to bookmark this page and check back often.

Robot vacuums and robot mops
I’ve come to expect the best robot vacuum deals on Amazon Prime Day, but I’m still surprised by the deep discounts on robovacs this year. You can save 30% or more on top-rated robot vacuum cleaners, including Shark, Samsung, and Roborock devices that each recharge on a self-emptying base, as well as robots that mop your floor. And if you’ve ventured into the world of smart home devices and have been dying to say, “Hey, Alexa, clean the floor,” or you want to tell your robotic house cleaner to sweep up before you get home from work, they all have Wi-Fi connectivity.
Mop vacs
If you’re excited about vacuum cleaners, just wait until you go down the mop vac rabbit hole. Mop vacs are newish to both the market and this sales event, and this is the best time to buy one. These wet-dry mop-vacuum combos pick up wet and dry messes on hardwood floors, tile, and laminate, while a microfiber brush roll mops with a continuous stream of clean water and solution. They’re perfect for quickly cleaning your kitchen floor, but you can also use them on hard floors throughout the house instead of vacuuming and then going back through with a mop. Former associate editor Jarrett Melendez says his Bissell Crosswave changed his life. On multiple occasions, I’ve said the same about my Tineco Floor One.

Cordless stick vacuum cleaners
Cordless stick vacuum cleaners are great if you want a vacuum cleaner that’s nimble, swivels on a dime, and is easy to maneuver. In recent years, Amazon Prime Day vacuum deals have always included a nice selection of cordless stick vacuums from trusted brands like Shark, LG, Samsung, Black+Decker, and Tineco. I’m pleased to see that this year is no different, though, I admit I was a little nervous when I didn’t see many early deals on these things. Amazon has a slim Dyson on sale, as well as stick vacs from LG, Shark, Samsung, Hoover, Black+Decker. And if you’re not familiar with Tineco, the brand’s S11 was my favorite cordless stick vacuum in my vacuum cleaner product testing. But if you don’t want to make any choices, the Dyson V12 Detect Slim is pretty unbeatable in the category, and you can get at a serious discount over the next two days.

Corded stick, canister, and upright vacuums
We all love a cordless stick vacuum, but you never have to worry about the battery dying when you use a vacuum cleaner you plug into the wall. Corded vacs generally have more suction power for dirt, dust, pet hair, upholstery, and other jobs, too, and they typically come with attachments like crevice tools and upholstery heads for couches and chairs. Like Prime Days and Black Fridays of yore, you can save more than 30% on corded vacuums from Dyson, Shark, Miele, and Bissell.

Handheld vacuums
Hand vacs have come a long way from the days of bulky Dustbusters (you can still find those too). Modern handheld vacuum cleaners are sleek, cordless, lightweight, and have more powerful suction than what you’d expect from such a small battery-powered gadget. This Prime Day, they’re super affordable too. Hand vacs may not have the same suction power as an upright (or even a cordless stick) vacuum, but they’re ideal for quick cleanups in the kitchen. I use mine to vacuum out crevices, my utensil crock, my silverware drawer, and more. While you’re at it—especially if you live in a home with pets that shed—pick up a reusable lint brush (or two) for those times when you need to give your couch a quick touch-up.
Carpet cleaners
If you’ve been meaning to finally get that stain out of the carpet from that never-to-be-repeated borscht party you thought would be a good idea, Prime Day might give you an opportunity to liberate yourself from those pink stains of shame you’ve kept hidden beneath the sofa. A few carpet cleaners by Bissell and Hoover are available for 25% or more in both handheld and upright designs.
Air purifiers
We all know air purifiers are great for dust and pet dander in the home, but after commerce writer Wilder Davies tested air purifiers for the kitchen, I was sold on the idea that these air-cleaning gadgets are necessary kitchen appliances—especially for those who don’t have truly functional built-in range hoods. An air purifier cuts down on allergens and cooking smells, and since adding one to my own kitchen, I’ve also noticed far less of that sticky, icky, dusty kitchen grime that seems to accumulate on upper cabinets and shelving (and even on the outside of my range hood!). This Prime Day, you can snag discounts on air purifiers from Shark, Dyson, Levoit, and Coway.
Cleaning supplies
Last, but certainly not least: The stuff we all hate to spend money on—microfiber cloths, our favorite aprons, dish soap, spray cleaner, etc. These products usually aren’t part of any early Prime Day sales, and because they aren’t big-ticket items, they’re harder to find with discounts of 30% or more, but I did find some treasures: Swedish dishcloths, microfiber cleaning cloths, dish spray, a duster with a telescopic handle for cleaning under and behind appliances, and even a fun spinning scrub brush (yes, I said a cleaning product is fun!). If you’ve been curious about the Pink Stuff, trust me, you want to get this ultimate cleaning bundle from the TikTok-famous brand. If nothing else, take this as an opportunity to stock up on stuff you already use—no coupon clipping required.
