Robot vacuums range from basic bump-and-go models that randomly wander your floors to sophisticated machines that map your home with surgical precision, and Roborock always positioned itself at the premium end with innovations that justify higher price tags. Each new model brings features that push the category forward, but that innovation typically costs serious money, with the flagship Saros 10R normally demanding $1,599 from your wallet.
Roborock has firmly planted itself in the luxury segment of this market, where several of their flagship models now command $1,500 or more. These aren't machines you can compare to the $200 to $400 entry-level options still available at big-box stores. The difference becomes obvious the moment you watch one work: genuine autonomy, intelligent navigation, and cleaning performance that replaces human effort rather than simply supplementing it.
