CES is understood for splashy TV and laptop computer launches, however in 2025, there have been various firms attempting to make waves with robotic vacuums, too. After years the place it appeared like vacuuming, mopping, and self-emptying is perhaps the height of a robotic vacuum’s skills, this 12 months’s present launched residence robots with entire new performance — and appendages.
Right here’s the robotic vacuums that caught our eye at CES 2025, lots of which you possibly can invite to wash your front room later this 12 months.

The arm is able to 5 axis motion and is barely in a position to carry round 300 grams, which makes it higher at transferring garments and cables than something actually heavy. Roborock claims the Saros Z70's precision sensors, LEDs, and digital camera will be capable to establish 108 objects that it could actually transfer or keep away from, with the flexibility to be taught as much as 50 customized objects, too.
The one lacking items are a worth and launch date. Roborock plans to start out promoting the Roborock Saros Z70 later this 12 months, however hasn't shared what the worth of the brand new robotic might be. It’d prove {that a} robotic arms don't come low-cost.
Dreame X50 Extremely
Dreame is one in every of Roborock's rivals, and it had its personal new flagship robotic vacuum at CES. Quite than an arm, the Dreame X50 Extremely has tiny wheeled legs for climbing (admittedly shallow) stairs. Dreame calls the function its "ProLeap System" and it presently says that the X50 Extremely can deal with stairs which can be 6cm (round 2.4 inches) tall. That's rather a lot shorter than the typical family stairs, nevertheless it does nonetheless imply Dreame's robotic vacuum can attain locations opponents can't.
The Dreame X50 Extremely is offered to be reserved now for $39, which locks you in to a decrease $1310 worth and secures an extended guarantee and free equipment. The robotic vacuum will formally go on sale on February 4 for $1700.
Eufy E20
Robotic vacuums are handy, however they're not but nice at reaching each nook of your own home, which often means you need to additionally personal some form of handheld vacuum. The Eufy E20 might get rid of that two-vacuum conundrum.

The objective is proudly owning one vacuum that may adapt to your whole wants, whereas nonetheless providing the advantages of a robotic vacuum, like a base station for mechanically dumping particles. It looks as if Eufy may need pulled it off, and at a comparatively reasonably priced worth, too. The Eufy 3-in-1 E20 Vacuum might be out there on February 10 and begin at $550, with all of its equipment included.
Switchbot K20+ Professional
Swithcbot is understood for good residence equipment like robotic curtain movers and button pushers, however the firm has additionally been providing its personal reasonably priced robotic vacuum for the previous couple of years. The Switchbot K20+ Professional is its newest mannequin, but additionally an entire new approach to mix the Switchbot merchandise you may already personal.
The K20+ Professional appears to be like a bit like regular robotic vacuum, simply with a rolling platform mounted on high. It could possibly maintain as much as 18 lbs and you may join Switchbot's air air purifier, safety digital camera or fan to the highest and get a vacuum that doubles as a extra of a common residence robotic. Switchbot says it's additionally designed to be straightforward to mod if you wish to create your individual bizarre attachment to go on high. The K20+ Professional is certainly equal elements goofy and intelligent, nevertheless it nonetheless has loads of unknowns. There's no worth or launch date past later this 12 months. Switchbot plans to promote the K20+ Professional solo, and in bundles with a few of the appropriate equipment.
Dreame Retractable Arm Prototype
Roborock wasn't alone in exhibiting off a robotic vacuum with an arm. Dreame's unnamed prototype robotic vacuum isn't able to go on sale, however does consists of its personal claw-shaped arm for grabbing issues, and wheeled "legs" for getting over ledges just like the Dreame X50 Extremely.
It's not clear when this prototype will develop into an actual product or how a lot it'll price when it does, nevertheless it serves as instance that if Roborock can pull off the Saros Z70, others will definitely observe.
