When Roborock first launched in 2014, it wasn’t just introducing a vacuum; it was quietly charting a new path forward for not just the modern home, but also for future technology as the everyday hero.  

In a world still figuring out smart living, Roborock was already looking ahead. It began with a single breakthrough, Laser Distance Sensors, a powerful technology that allowed early robot vacuums to map out floor plans without falling down a stairwell or running over your dog. 

While competitors zigzagged, Roborock led the way and is still the leading giant in the industry.  

This year, the company celebrates an 11-year journey of quiet but relentless innovation, one that has turned the brand into a kind of time traveler, shaping the way we clean and think.

In 2017, that journey gained serious momentum. The Roborock S5 launched as the brand’s first namesake vacuum and immediately reset expectations for what a robot vacuum could do, defining the future of technology. 

The brand leaped in 2020 with the S6 MaxV, introducing dual cameras and ReactiveAI, allowing the vacuum to recognize objects and avoid them without manual input. It led the brand to earn a spot on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market, cementing its status.

But the real victory wasn’t in numbers; it was in proving that home technology could be thoughtful, intuitive, and feel just a little more human.

Now, in 2025, Roborock has reached a new chapter with the debut of its most advanced creation yet with the Saros Z70. If past generations were milestones, the Z70 is a time capsule of everything Roborock has learned, built, and imagined. 

It’s a responsive, fully integrated cleaning system designed to navigate life’s real messes. At its core is Roborock’s first-ever robotic arm with a multi-jointed tool that can remove obstacles like toys, shoes, and socks from its path, and even place them neatly into storage bins. It’s the kind of technology that once felt decades away, but now, an everyday necessity we soon can’t live without. 

The Saros Z70 features the brand’s first-ever robotic arm to pick up all your odds and ends, ensuring every corner and every speck of dust is taken care of — no manual effort required.

There is a very powerful 22,000 pascal suction system, intelligent dirt detection reaching super low, for a deep clean that fits in a fully automated dock. It glides easily over carpet and hardwood floors with the AdaptiLift Chassis to create easy transitions between terrain. And don’t you worry, the FlexiArm Riser reaches every last corner, every last speck of dust, so your floor won’t require any manual labor. So, if you’ve been waiting for the future of floor care, this is it. 

To celebrate the launch and 11 years of innovation, Roborock is offering a limited-time anniversary deal exclusively on Roborock’s website. The first 800 orders of the Saros Z70 will receive a complimentary Dyad Pro Combo, and the following 1,000 will receive a Dyad Air at no extra cost. The offer runs from August 29 through September 4, an invitation for early adopters to step into the future of home cleaning before everyone else.

The brand launched its Saros Z70 at CES alongside the Saros 10R, which we were able to review and fell in love with. While it doesn’t have the robotic arm of its headline-making sibling, the Saros Z70, it still scrubs, vacuums, and navigates with the kind of confidence you only get from a brand that’s been perfecting its craft for over a decade. For those looking for something powerful, reliable, and a little more budget-friendly, the 10R is an everyday hero in its own right.

Soon, the F25 Ultra will be available for purchase with blue light illumination and easy maneuverability with an updated display from previous models. Our favorite aspect of this new model is the industry-first floor washer that offers both 150-degree Celsius high-temperature steam cleaning and 86-degree Celsius hot water cleaning with a run time of 60 minutes.

The water tank has a deodorization station, removing wonky smells from the dirty water, and an easy-to-pull handle when dumping liquid from the vacuum. There’s also a silent drying mode that takes only 30 minutes, a perfect setting for families with young children or light sleepers. So whatever you’re in the market for, whether that be a robot or a handheld, this brand is always pushing the boundaries of what clean can look like and never settling for the status quo.

As founder and CEO, Richard Chang said, “Years later, we may discover the world has changed a little because of us.” We’re inclined to agree. Roborock is creating the future of smart technology. Are you ready? Bring it into your home and test it for yourself.
