Roborock Saros Z70 Review:Smart home

Is the Roborock Saros Z70 impressive? Without a doubt! When it extends its arm, your eyes go wide (at least the first few times). It's impressive when the robot vacuum clears its own path to clean the entire area and also helps with tidying up. Technically, the Saros Z70 is undoubtedly the most exciting representative of its kind currently on the market, even if not everything went smoothly in our test. Apart from the OmniGrip robotic arm, the other features are also of a high standard and comparable with the Saros 10R. Do you need the Roborock Saros Z70? In our opinion, not necessarily, as the options are (still) very limited and the price is even higher than other flagship robot vacuum cleaners. At the moment, it can only clear socks, shoes and a few other things out of the way, which is still not really reliable and can also be done quickly with a little tidying up in your own four walls. But for those who enjoy technical innovation, the Saros Z70 from Roborock is currently (still) the most exciting robot vacuum.

“The Roborock Saros Z70 is a powerful robot vacuum and mop, but its robotic arm isn’t quite ready for the spotlight.”

With its OmniGrip arm, the Roborock Saros Z70 promises to tidy up as it goes, picking up shoes, socks and the like automatically. Sounds great in theory, but in practice, the arm is very hit-and-miss, failing to collect some items, dropping some and missing others entirely. All of this makes it hard to recommend this robot over its armless sibling, the Saros 10, which vacuums and mops as well but is a lot cheaper.
