Best Buy Drops is Best Buy’s in-app feature that gets you access to popular products for low prices—but only for a limited time or until supply runs out. Today, Best Buy Drop has the iRobot Roomba Combo i5+ available for $299.99 (originally $549.99), the lowest price it’s been over the last four months (according to price-checking tools). For reference, the robot vacuum has been at its previous lowest price of $349.99 sporadically since October 2023, but never going below it. (Note: You'll need the app to see the correct price; otherwise, the above Best Buy link will redirect you to the website, where the price is still $349.99.)
You need the app to get this deal
Starting Tuesday, Feb. 27 at 11 a.m. ET, the iRobot Roomba Combo i5+, is available to all shoppers who have the Best Buy app. As I explained in the Best Buy Drops post, you will need to create an account and navigate to the “Drops” tab to see the Roomba Combo i5+. Once you see it, click the "add to cart" button, which puts you in the queue to give you the chance to buy the Roomba. Depending on how popular the product is, waiting in line can take minutes to hours. The Roomba Combo i5+ is somewhat popular, but I've noticed that people love a good Roomba deal, so the wait could be long. These Drop deals are exclusive to those with the app, so don’t expect it to show up on the website or in stores.
The Roomba Combo i5+ is similar to the Roomba Combo j5+ in that they both mop and self-empty their debris with the base. There is one major difference between them, however, that could be a deal-breaker for some of you. iRobot distinguishes "j" models from "i" by having better navigation and mapping features. The "j" has "PrecisionVision" for navigation, which gives it obstacle detection (think cables, dog poop, etc.). The "j" also has areas of your smart map that you can tell it not to vacuum or mop, which the "i" can't do. If these are things you can live without, the iRobot Roomba Combo i5+ might be a great deal for you at its current price.
