Let's cut to the chase with this one. This week, you can get your hands on a Lidl robot vacuum for a frankly silly £79.99. Yes, you read that correctly – under £80! Given there are similar cleaners on the market for £300 – and we've even seen this exact model on Amazon for more than £200 – this is a deal that needs to be taken VERY seriously.
