Roborock launches F25 Steam mop in Italy with 180°C steam and 80‑minute battery

Roborock introduced the F25 Steam floor‑cleaning robot in Italy, pricing it at €459. The device combines high‑temperature steam up to 180 °C generated by its proprietary VaporFlow system in 60 seconds, 25 000 Pa suction, and an 80‑minute battery life. It aims to remove stubborn oil, food residue and allergens without chemical detergents, claiming to eliminate over 99.9999 % of bacteria and 99.9 % of allergens. The flat‑reach 2.0 design lets the machine recline fully to 180°, with a slim 12.5 cm profile for cleaning under furniture.

The launch reflects a broader shift toward highly autonomous robot vacuums and mops. New models feature automatic dust‑bin emptying, self‑cleaning mop pads, water‑tank refilling, and detergent dosing. Advanced LiDAR, camera and depth‑sensor navigation maps homes in detail, while smartphone apps let users schedule cleaning, set no‑go zones and monitor status remotely. The article also highlighted the Roborock Saros 10R as a top‑of‑range example of this new generation, showing how such devices can keep homes clean even during weeks‑long vacations.
