Roborock is one of my favorite manufacturers of robot vacuum cleaners. Since its launch, the company has continued to surprise us with its innovations.

We are witnessing a major transformation in the industry, where customers are looking not only for high-performance products, but also for easy-to-use, intelligent solutions that can be integrated into their connected home. We now offer more extensive connectivity than ever before, the most sought-after feature by our customers. In addition, our robots now integrate robotic arm mechanics for more efficient cleaning, distinguishing them from the rest of the market.
