Dyson Ball vacuum on sale: Save $225 on Amazon

You know what sucks almost as much as Sunday night’s disappointing Game of Thrones finale?

A good vacuum cleaner. 

Here at Mashable, we know how tough it is to find a vacuum that’s both powerful *and* affordable. We’ve spent hours — nay, days scouring the internet for the best robot vacuums, vacuums for pet hair, handheld vacuums, cordless vacuums, and canister vacuums. 

And while we admittedly have our favorites, we can’t pass up an awesome deal when we see one.

Just in time for your late-spring cleaning, Amazon is having a sale on certified refurbished Dyson Ball Multi Floor 2 upright vacuum cleaners. Each one has been tested and guaranteed to work as good as new, and if you act fast, you can score one for less than $200. 

Featuring Dyson’s signature Radial Root Cyclone™ technology, the Dyson Ball Multi Floor 2 claims to be capable of slurping up more microscopic dust than any other device of its kind. It also includes a self-adjusting cleaner head with a powerful motorized brush bar; its active base plate automatically moves up and down to seal in suction, which makes for a deep clean on carpet, wood, vinyl, and tile alike. 

What we really like about this Dyson Ball — well, besides its hard-to-beat price — is its maneuverability: Since it rides around on a literal ball, it’s capable of turning sharp corners and navigating around furniture with the greatest of ease. (Fun fact: This unique design earned it a spot on our roundup of the best Dyson models, where it currently holds the title of Best Dyson Vacuum for Small Spaces.)

Every certified refurbished Dyson Ball Multi Floor 2 bought through Amazon has been professionally inspected by a qualified supplier, and comes with Dyson’s free five-year warranty that covers parts, labor, and shipping to and from the repair facility. 

A brand new Dyson Ball Multi Floor 2 retails for $399.99, but you can snag one that’s certified refurbished for just $174.99 — a 56% savings.
