Roborock unveils new Saros robot vacuums at IFA 2026

Roborock has announced three new robot vacuums in its Saros line at IFA 2026 in Berlin: the Saros 20 Flow Complete, the more compact Saros 20 Neo, and the eye-catching Saros Rover. The biggest news is the Saros Rover, the brand’s first robot vacuum with a wheel-leg design that lets it clear thresholds and even climb stairs. The two Saros 20 models build on the existing Saros lineup, adding a self-cleaning mop roller, hot-water mopping and up to 36,000Pa of suction. Roborock has not yet released pricing for Europe.

Saros 20 Flow Complete: the slimmest model with a self-cleaning mop roller

At just 8.98cm thick, the Saros 20 Flow Complete is the slimmest model in the lineup that still carries a roller mop. It uses Roborock’s new SpiraFlow 2.0 system: a self-cleaning mop roller that spins at 240rpm with 15 Newtons of downward pressure. Sixteen pressurized water outlets continuously rinse the roller while mopping, so dirty water isn’t dragged back across the floor. The third-generation AdaptiLift chassis lets the robot climb thresholds up to 8.8cm, while RetractSense LiDAR navigation with Reactive AI recognizes more than 300 obstacle categories. The dock washes the mop roller automatically with 100°C water and dispenses detergent.

Saros 20 Neo: a low profile for under your sofa

At just 7.95cm tall, the Saros 20 Neo is built to fit under low furniture such as sofas and beds. It shares the HyperForce motor and 36,000Pa of suction with its sibling, and climbs thresholds thanks to the AdaptiLift Chassis 3.0. For mopping, it combines hot-water cleaning with up to 14 Newtons of pressure, and a dual anti-tangle system is meant to keep long hair from wrapping around the brush. On a full charge, the Saros 20 Neo covers roughly 350 square meters, enough for most homes in a single run.

Saros Rover: the first robot vacuum that can climb stairs

The Saros Rover is the standout of the three. Instead of regular wheels, it uses a wheel-leg design whose legs move independently of each other. That lets the robot not only avoid thresholds and loose objects but also climb stair treads one step at a time. Roborock pairs this with motion sensors and 3D spatial data, so the Saros Rover can find its own way between floors. It’s aimed at multi-story homes, where a regular robot vacuum gets stuck at the staircase. Roborock first showed the Saros Rover at CES 2026 and is now putting it back in the spotlight at IFA.

Price and availability

Roborock has not shared European pricing or a firm release date for any of the three models yet. The Saros 20 Flow Complete is expected to arrive in the US before October 2026; timing for the Saros Rover hasn’t been confirmed. The Saros 20 Neo is now available on Amazon. We’ll update this article once Roborock announces European pricing and availability. Read more about the Roborock Saros 10 and 10R, the predecessor to these new models.
