SAVE $200: As of Sept. 28, you can grab a Dyson Ball Animal 2 Upright Vacuum for just $299.99(opens in a new tab) at Walmart — that's 40% in savings.

As much as we rely on our convenient little robot vacuums to pick up daily messes, a trusty upright is still a necessity for deep cleaning — especially if you're a pet parent. An upright can actually pick up what your Roomba left behind.

If you're in need of a new vacuum to manually go where no robot can reach, check out this Dyson Ball Animal 2(opens in a new tab) . As of Sept. 28, it's on sale for just $299.99 at Walmart — that's $200 off its MSRP and $100 less than it was just a couple of weeks ago.

The Ball Animal 2 Upright Vacuum may no longer be Dyson's latest Ball vac, but it's still a powerhouse. It's ideal for pet owners, thanks to its impressive 227 AW suction, its tangle-free turbine tool, and its lack of a brush bar for hair to wrap around. If you have thick carpet that's prone to ground-in dirt, hair, and dust, this thing drives deep into those fibers to capture it all. Of course, it also helps that it's easy to whip around — thanks in part to Dyson's iconic Ball technology.

Attachments in the box include a tangle-free turbine tool, combination tool, and stair tool to tackle all the tough spots. While it may not be cordless or compact (it weighs about 17.5 pounds), you won't have to worry about frequent recharging or dustbin emptying.

In true Dyson fashion, the Ball Animal 2 also features whole-machine filtration, convenient one-click dirt emptying, and a washable lifetime filter that prevents you from having to purchase more down the road.

Snag this deep-cleaning beast for a steal at $200 off(opens in a new tab) while you can.
