The Roborock Saros 10R is a significant upgrade over its predecessors, offering a host of improvements including a new navigation system, enhanced cleaning performance, and increased convenience. While it's not the cheapest robot vacuum on the market, its impressive features and capabilities make it a worthy investment for those seeking a reliable and effective home cleaning solution.
Roborock product launches are always exciting. The company has cultivated a dedicated following of robot vacuum enthusiasts, thanks to a lineup that’s always ahead of the curve. And once again, Roborock has shown its expertise with the Saros 10R . This powerful new device comes in the wake of CES 2025 , where Roborock debuted the Saros Z70 — an upcoming robot vacuum with a robotic arm.
The Saros 10R doesn’t have anything as remarkable as that, but it does use the same navigation system and makes tons of minor updates compared to its predecessors. It’s expensive, and it doesn’t have as much suction as the Saros 10 (which also launches on February 10), but those are minor complaints about an otherwise stellar home assistant. Compared to the old Qrevo Slim, the Saros 10R makes a bunch of small — but meaningful — updates. For reduced tangling, it now sports a side brush with two arms (instead of three) and its main brush uses a DuoDivide design to funnel hair into a central gap. This was previously used on the Qrevo Curv, where I found it to be an excellent upgrade, and it works just as well on the Saros 10R. One of my favorite features is the robot’s newfound ability to automatically detach its mopping pads, leaving them in the docking station while vacuuming . This isn’t enabled by default, though it only takes a few taps in the app to get it activated. The Saros 10R also boasts more suction than the Qrevo Slim, allowing it to pull dust and debris from deep within your carpets. Of course, you’re still getting all the basic features of a premium robot vacuum. This includes a comprehensive docking station that’ll take care of most of your maintenance, a smartphone app to customize your robot’s performance, and a slot for you to insert a cleaning solution cartridge for superior hard floor cleanings. The dock design has been improved too, with a reflective surface that looks incredibly luxurious yet remains easy to use. One of the biggest changes on the Saros 10R compared to other Roborock vacuums is the presence of StarSight Autonomous System 2.0. This is the first robot available on the market with the new navigation system, and it’s the one shown off in the Saros Z70 at CES 2025. And when it comes to navigating around your home to clean every nook and cranny, StarSight Autonomous System 2.0 has proven to be a success. Whether it’s avoiding obstacles like dog toys and charging cables or getting incredibly close to corners and baseboards, the Saros 10R has been mighty impressive. It’s still not foolproof (some cable colors give it trouble, especially when placed in my room’s plush carpets), but overall it’s a huge step in the right direction. More importantly, it didn’t attempt to climb objects like the Roborock Qrevo Curv — meaning I didn’t have to rescue it at all during my testing. The robot responds quickly to unexpected obstacles, such as when my dog would walk in front of it or I’d step into the kitchen to do the dishes while it was mopping. Another perk of StarSight is that it’s technology frees up space on the robot so it can offer a slimmer profile. At just 7.98 centimeters tall, it could reach underneath my fishtank stand — a location that was long overdue for a cleaning. In short, the upgraded eyesight of the Saros 10R improves nearly every aspect of its performance.Set it and forget it One of the most important things to consider when shopping for a robot vacuum is whether or not it can carry out its tasks autonomously. If you need to constantly clean its filters, change its dustbags, or rescue it after getting stuck, it’s not a good product. When it comes to the Saros 10R, it’ll essentially run itself. Thanks to its new navigation system, you don’t have to worry about it getting trapped as often as some of the competition. And with a 4L clean water tank, 3L used water tank, and 2.5L dustbag, it can go for long periods of time without needing any manual intervention. It’s hard to say how often you’ll need to refill its tank or empty the dustbag, as that’ll vary drastically based on how many days a week you run the robot and how big your home is. However, small homes and apartments will likely get over a week of usage before needing to do any manual labor. The dustbag in particualar should last several weeks (or months) before needing to be replaced. Adding to the convenience is a docking station that cleans and dries the mopping pads, ensuring you don’t get funky smells coming from the robot. Once the mops are clean, the docking station will also give itself a rinse to wash away anything that fell off the mop
