My wife actually wanted a vacuum cleaner for her Valentines gift!
And, get this, she shopped for it herself! The only downside is that it cost $400+. It's one of those Dyson ball drive vacuums. I don't care though since it's supposedly great for hardwood floors so I'll never have to help sweep again. Now that's a freaking bargain.

What about a mop and scrubbing brush combo. That's pretty romantic.

I installed a central vac for my wife a while ago and she absolutly loves it. I also ran an outlet to the garage and its great for the cars.

Low maintenance (pun intended) women are a joy.
We normally skip the exercise but my wife's kitchen stereo went sneakers up last year so I replaced it on V Day. Much joy in Mudville

Make her go barefoot, she can get closer to the sink and not strain herself doing the dishes....

Wow, how will you be able to top this come XMas?
Maybe a sewing machine so she can make the family's clothes.

My wife bought that same Dyson a year or so ago. She swears by it. I wasn't able to qualify it as a gift for any particular occasion, however.
