Ecovacs, Roborock and Dyson roll out new vacuum‑mop robot models in Germany
Ecovacs showcased its DEEBOT X12 OmniCyclone in a German home‑test, highlighting a suction power of up to 22 000 Pa, the OZMO Roller 3.0 mopping system, FocusJet spot‑recognition and a low‑profile front‑sensor design that omits a traditional LiDAR tower. The accompanying bagless OmniCyclone station handles dust, water and cleaning‑solution management automatically.
Roborock announced two models—Saros 20 and Qrevo S Pro—at reduced prices. Both rely on intelligent navigation and a docking station that empties the dust bin, washes and dries the mop pads. The Saros 20 is positioned as a “dock‑first” robot with a price cut from €1 499 to €999, while the Qrevo S Pro drops from €599 to €399, aiming to improve convenience for households that currently mop manually.
Dyson released a software update for its Spot+Scrub Ai robot, delivered via the MyDyson app. The update adds a low‑moisture cleaning mode for faster drying, configurable “do‑not‑disturb” periods, and several navigation and coverage optimisations, including quicker start‑up and better carpet detection.
