Roborock, known for its robot vacuums, unveiled its first robotic pool cleaner, the RockAqua P1, at IFA Berlin. The device autonomously cleans pool floors, walls and waterlines using adaptive path navigation and vision-based obstacle detection, while offering a suction rate of 6,800 gallons per hour that it can adjust to avoid dislodging larger debris.
Roborock, best known for its robot vacuums, unveiled its first autonomous pool cleaner, the RockAqua P1, at IFA Berlin. The device cleans pool floors, walls, waterlines and shallow platforms using adaptive path navigation and vision-based obstacle detection, and can adjust suction strength depending on debris size.
Roborock unveiled the RockAqua P1, its debut robotic pool-cleaning device that scrubs floors, walls, and shallow ledges while filtering roughly 6,800 gallons of water per hour and running up to 3.5 hours per charge. The company also announced the RockNeo Q2 LiDAR, an upgraded robotic lawnmower using LiDAR navigation instead of GPS/RTK, alongside new home vacuum models including a Saros 2o with a roller mop. Pricing and availability for the pool robot in the US have not yet been disclosed.
Roborock used IFA 2026 to expand its robotic cleaning lineup, showcasing the Saros Rover with its wheel-leg design for climbing stairs, alongside the Saros 20 Flow Complete and Saros 20 Neo mop-vacuum hybrids. The company also introduced the F25 Ultra Steam Gen 2 upright steam cleaner, the modular F25 Pro Turbo Combo, plus new outdoor devices: the RockNeo Q2 lawnmower and RockAqua P1 pool cleaner.
