TL;DR: Keep your home clean with the ROCKUBOT sterilizing robot for $99.95, a 26% savings as of March 23. 


Now that panic buying has led to a shortage of cleaning products (among other things) on grocery store shelves, you may be looking for other ways to sanitize your home. May we introduce to you the ROCKUBOT, a sterilizing robot that can kill 99.9% of bacteria, germs, and mites in seconds.

This compact, yet mighty robot raised over $200K on Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and it doesn’t take a genius to see why. It’s basically like a tiny Roomba that rolls along surfaces in your home and attacks all the stuff your eyes can’t see using UV-C light and ultrasonic wave technology. It takes zero effort from you and can give you a little more peace of mind as you’re stuck in your home indefinitely.

In terms of hardware, the little white robot comes with four UV-C lights, ultrasonic wave technology, and two-dozen AI sensors. It uses smart mapping and navigation to clean your bed, countertop, couch, and more without falling off or running into things. But you can also pick it up and use it in handheld mode to clean things like phones, computers, toys, and anything else that’s particularly gross when you stop and think about it.

Oh, and it even has a use when it’s off-duty. There’s also a 5,000mAh power bank onboard to charge up your devices via USB.

Usually $129, you can save over 20% and score one of these sterilizing robots for just $99.95. Cute and helpful? This is the robot we all need in our isolated lives.
