There’s definitely optimism involved when you spot some debris and tell yourself you’ll vacuum later. Later turns into tomorrow, tomorrow turns into next weekend, and suddenly there’s a suspicious amount of dust under the dining table that everyone has collectively agreed not to acknowledge.

That’s why robot vacuums are becoming less of a gadget and more of a lifestyle adjustment. For $129.97 (reg. $299.99) through May 31, this Grade A refurbished Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum and Mop makes a pretty compelling argument for retiring at least one household chore.

This one has been cleaned and inspected to work like new, which is the reason why your are getting it for much less than retail.

The Shark Matrix Plus combines vacuuming and sonic mopping in one machine while using Matrix Clean technology to make multiple passes over dirt and debris instead of assuming one lap was enough.

It also uses 360° LiDAR mapping to build a layout of your home, navigate around objects, and clean more methodically.

The details are what make this feel like a practical buy. CleanEdge Detect helps pull dirt out of corners. The self-cleaning brush-roll handles pet hair without turning maintenance into another chore. The HEPA filtration system helps trap dust in the base.

And, amazingly, the self-emptying base can hold up to 60 days of dirt without requiring replacement bags.

For less than the cost of ordering takeout for a group, this is one of those purchases that doesn’t feel like simply buying a gadget; It really is like buying back a little of your time.
