If you’ve been waiting to buy a Dyson until the right deal comes along, this is that deal: This renewed Ball Animal Upright is on sale at Amazon for just $185. We know “renewed” sounds a little sketchy, but it’s not used, it’s “certified refurbished.” That means each vacuum been inspected by the folks at Dyson to ensure it works properly and doesn’t show too much cosmetic wear, if any. (Plus, it comes with a six-month warranty from Dyson in case something does go wrong). We also know that this upright vacuum isn’t the newest Dyson vacuum on the market (though if you were to buy it new, it still somehow costs $400). But this vacuum is a workhorse, with all of the suction power that you think of when you think of Dyson, that can be used on either hardwood or carpet. The flexible ball construction also lets you easily maneuver it behind couches and into funny corners. What makes this a truly great deal is the price: Finding any Dyson under $200 is a rarity, so even with all these caveats, we’re pretty sure it’ll sell out quickly, so don’t dillydally.
