BOGO FREE: As of March 19, the well-known Roborock Saros Z70 robotic vacuum with a robotic arm is accessible to preorder for $1,899. A particular promo from Roborock turns your preorder right into a bundle that features a second Roborock vacuum at no cost — a price of as much as $800.
Roughly nobody had a robotic vacuum with an arm on their CES 2025 bingo card. Roborock made one anyway, and the Roborock Saros Z70 is formally out there to preorder (with transport starting in Might). The Saros Z70 will value $1,899 — barely lower than the $2,000 we initially anticipated. And should you purchase your Saros Z70 throughout this preliminary launch window, that $1,899 truly covers a bundle that includes a second Roborock vacuum of your choice.
The eligible bonus fashions span from robotic vacuums to upright vacuums, together with the favored Roborock Dyad Pro Combo 5-in-1 wet and dry vacuum (a $659.99 worth) or the Roborock Qrevo S5V (a $799.99 worth). No finish date for the BOGO promo has been given, however portions for the free vacuums are restricted.
Although there is not any query {that a} robotic arm for selecting up obstacles is cool, it is the practicality that I used to be questioning. When you have been on the fence about spending that a lot on a vacuum, the cost-effectiveness will get a critical increase if you get two good vacuums for a similar value.
What’s so particular in regards to the Roborock Z70?
The Roborock Z70 goes previous the small impediment avoidance expertise that has turn into a navigational staple in recent times and topples into impediment removing expertise. It performs such with a robotic OmniGrip arm that unfolds out of the highest of the robotic vacuum to seize the impediment claw machine-style, and drops it in a close-by designated space. (The live demo at CES 2025 showcased the Z70 placing socks right into a basket.) The arm’s pickup capabilities cowl 4 various kinds of obstacles and should weigh beneath 300 grams: socks, paper, small towels, and light-weight footwear. I would personally profit essentially the most from the arm with the ability to seize pet toys.
Individuals extra swayed by practicality than a hit-or-miss high-tech function may discover the larger seize right here to be the Z70’s unbelievable 22,000 Pa of suction energy. That is 12,000 Pa extra highly effective than the Roborock Qrevo Grasp, my favorite overall robot vacuum of 2024 that cleans with 10,000 Pa, and three,500 Pa extra highly effective than the Roborock Qrevo Curv that has bought out a number of occasions.
The Saros Z70 is not the one new Roborock in 2025
The Saros line additionally contains two different new flagship fashions that do not function the robotic arm: The $1,599.99 Saros 10 and Saros 10R. Each are the identical tremendous slim 3.14-inch peak because the Saros S70, however each function a combined assortment of options from the Z70.
The Saros 10 cleans with the identical 22,000 Pa because the Saros Z70, whereas the Saros 10R takes a negligible lower to twenty,000 Pa. The Saros 10 makes use of the identical Reactive AI expertise to keep away from small obstacles that a lot of the 2024 Qrevo fashions did, whereas the Saros Z70 and 10R have been upgraded to Roborock’s StarSight 2.0 expertise. StarSight, a mixture of dual-light 3D Time-of-Flight expertise and AI-powered RGB cameras, is claimed to result in extra exact mapping and impediment avoidance, however I did not discover the Saros 10R’s impediment dodging to be notably higher than any impediment avoidance I’ve examined out earlier than.
