GoKawiilAnker has made some of our favorite and most innovative robot vacuums over the years, and recently, they’ve also been getting into robot lawn mowers, earning spots on our tested lists. The newest models they’re showing off at IFA Berlin 2026 include a robot vacuum and a robot mower, both with key improvements and features over previous generations.
Anker’s newest robot vacuum — and potentially the last one to keep the Eufy name (more on that below) — is the Omni E35, and it just might be what my three asthmatic cats need because it focuses on sterilization and disinfection. Anker describes it as “baby-grade,” meaning it’s TÜV Rheinland-certified for the “Maternal and Infant Cleaning Robot mark.” It can eliminate bacteria and dust mites, and it has low noise and high efficiency when it comes to cleaning and self-cleaning.
Anker says it’s the first and only robot vacuum to earn the Asthma & Allergy Friendly Certification from the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. This is especially interesting to me as someone who has the bad luck of having three cats diagnosed with asthma. The vet told me it was incredibly unlikely to occur naturally, so the cause is probably environmental — dust mites, dander, outdoor pollution, fragrances or smoke from the neighbors downstairs. At least a couple of those factors could be addressed by a robot vacuum capable of more thorough fine-dust pickup and sterilization, so I’m interested in seeing it in action and trying it at home.
Anker says the E35 Omni can clean your floors well enough for babies to play on. Anker
It has all the typical flagship features you’d expect from a top-tier model, including 35,000 pascals of suction and the Hydro Jet 2.0 self-cleaning roller mop. It also has a kitchen deep clean mode that uses an algorithm to determine how to tackle tougher stains, by saturating, soaking and then scrubbing.
The Omni E35 will be available starting Sept. 25, though pre-orders will start Sept. 4. It’ll cost $1,100 at MSRP, but if you buy it during the early bird pricing, you can get it for $900.
Eufy S2 Max
Anker
Also new in the robotics space is the Eufy S2 Max, Anker’s first robot mower developed entirely in-house. It has vision-based SLAM navigation and real-time 3D mapping, meaning no boundary wires or RTK beacons are required, which has become increasingly common in the robot mower market. It also has improved computing and full all-wheel drive, letting it handle terrain up to 80% slopes, a dual blade system and edge-to-edge cutting with an extendable trimming arm.
US availability and pricing are still to be determined, but it’ll be available in EU markets in May 2027 for 3,999 euros.
