CES is known for splashy TV and laptop launches, but in 2025, there were more than a few companies trying to make waves with robot vacuums, too. After years where it seemed like vacuuming, mopping, and self-emptying might be the peak of a robot vacuum’s abilities,

Since all different modes rely on the same motor, you might expect them all to offer the same level of suction, but that's not quite the case. In robot vacuum mode, the E20 offers 8,000 Pa of suction power, but switch it over to stick mode, and you'll get a massive 30,000 Pa.

The Eufy Clean E20 is essentially a “core” vacuum with varying attachments, one of which is a robot body. It starts with the base station, which hails a sizeable 350mL litter box with an accompanying self-emptying system to clear out the robot once it’s performed its duty.

Robot vacuums are getting some outstanding upgrades this year, and ZDNET has picked the best ones of them all.

SwitchBot is showing off robot vacuums that can zoom around with air purifiers, tablet stands, security cameras, tabletops and other objects on top.

Roborock unveiled a feature that it hopes could help its vacuums dethrone the Roomba: an arm. This is Saros Z70, the autonomous vacuum that comes equipped with a five-axis arm that unfolds from the top of the vacuum to pick up obstacles using onboard cameras and sensors.

Alyek is on the show floor at CES 2025, the ultimate hub for innovation in tech and robotics, and she's on a mission to find and meet all the coolest robots at the event. From pet robots like Loona Petbot and Tombot's Jennie,

There have been a few trends this week at CES, from integrated AI to electric toothbrushes and robot vacuum mops. We checked out many of the latter between the LVCC and the Venetian show floors and here are the five models that stand out the most to us.
