What changes

  • First mass-produced robot vacuum with a foldable mechanical arm.
  • The OmniGrip arm picks up small light objects (socks, clothes).
  • Pre-orders opened March 19, 2025; price of about $2,600.
  • Mixed May 2025 reviews: the vacuum impresses, the arm less so.

### Background On January 5, 2025, at the start of CES in Las Vegas, China's Roborock unveiled the Saros Z70, a robot vacuum and mop fitted with a foldable mechanical arm called OmniGrip. The arm rises from the top of the device to pick up small objects such as socks or light clothes and place them elsewhere before cleaning the area. Roborock presents it as the first mass-produced robot vacuum with such an arm. ### Specifications - Foldable OmniGrip mechanical arm, stowed inside the robot's body when not in use. - High-end vacuuming and mopping features of the Saros series. - Pre-orders opened March 19, 2025; price of about $2,600, as reported by trade press. - First reviews published in May 2025. ### Why it matters The Saros Z70 brings object manipulation to a mainstream home robot. May 2025 reviews were mixed, however: the vacuum was rated excellent, but the arm slow and limited to light objects. Its price then dropped sharply in 2026. ### Key takeaways A commercial first more than a mature use case: the arm paves the way for home robots that act on their environment, beyond cleaning.
