PURE ONE A50S -- $239, was $329 27% off
Comparatively, the PURE ONE A50S has similar features to the PURE ONE Station 5. Examples include the iLoop Smart Sensor Technology, which detects surface dirtiness and auto-adjusts cleaning power, PureCyclone Technology, and a five-stage filtration system. Where the PURE ONE A50S stands out, however, is thanks to its exceptional 185 watts of powerful suction. The new-to-brand 3DSense brush intelligently boosts suction power when high levels of debris are detected, and it does the same around edges -- get those baseboards clean once and for all! Moreover, the 70 minutes of use on a single charge means you can clean virtually your entire home, and the large capacity dustbin reduces how many times you have to empty it, as well. The 180-degree foldable design allows you to get into tight or hard-to-reach spaces, plus the 120-degree wide-angle headlight illuminates your path. This deal saves you $90.

It has an HD camera, which isn't a ton, but it does have an impressive 130-degree field of view. The MyQ also connects through dual-band Wi-Fi for a better connection, and it even has two-way communication, which is impressive for something at this price bracket.
