CES 2026 witnessed the unveiling of Roborock’s new innovation, Saros Rover, a cleaning robot equipped with extendable legs in a revolutionary design that not only enables it to climb and clean stairs, but also allows it to make small jumps. During the exhibition, the company presented a wide range of new products, including the leading Saros 20 and Saros 20R models, in addition to the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow, which is the company’s first robot to include a rotating mop (roller). mop), the F25 Ace Pro wet and dry foam mower, and the RockMow X1 LiDAR mower that ditches RTK for the first time.
The Saros Rover stands out as a very innovative model that represents Roborock’s answer to the stair-climbing robots that companies like Dreame and Eufy showed off at IFA 2025. However, the company took a completely different approach to dealing with obstacles. Instead of using continuous tracks as competitors do, Roborock equipped its device with extendable side legs designed to raise the robot while maintaining its balance and stability. Thanks to its ability to self-balance, the device does not fall even when Being pushed, this geometry based on wheels and legs allows the robot to turn and make small jumps.
The utmost importance of this design lies in the ability of the Saros Rover to move sideways along the stairs by switching between its independently controlled legs, which enables it to clean each step effectively and actively instead of just bypassing them. Despite the excitement caused by this announcement and the demonstration of the device’s capabilities in Las Vegas, the company has not yet disclosed the details of the prices or the date of the official availability of this robot in the market.
