Where it stands
Autonomy LadderIIIIIIIVVLevel IIIConditional AutonomyHuman ReadinessReady NowNew to MarketWaitKnown IssuesRobovations Score040557085Not scoredWhat happenedIts distinguishing feature is a pair of Reuleaux triangle mop pads meant to clean into corners.
WatchingFor independent tests of corner cleaning, which launch demonstrations did not show.
Bottom lineA dated UK release at a stated price, with its headline corner-cleaning design still unproven outside a demonstration.
ImpactOn autonomy
- Reuleaux triangle mop pads on an off-center axle trace a square cleaning pattern
- Mopping water heated to 75 degrees, per a hands-on review
- Bristle brushes sweep larger debris so suction targets fine particles
On readiness
- On sale in the UK from September 3, 2026, per T3
- UK price of 749.99 pounds, the middle of the Nurovi range
- The R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV was slated to follow later

Release
One hands-on review reported on September 3, 2026 that Dyson unveiled its Nurovi robot vacuum range and that the R1 Nurovi Dry and R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry were available from that day at 499.99 pounds and 749.99 pounds respectively, with the R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV to follow. Another review reported on September 4 from Dyson’s IFA 2026 event that the R2 was available at 750 pounds.
Mopping Design
Both sources describe Reuleaux triangle-shaped mop pads in place of round pads. A hands-on review explains that the constant-width shape and an off-center axle produce a square cleaning pattern intended to reach into corners, and that the R2 heats its water to 75 degrees.
Vacuuming
A hands-on review describes bristle brushes that sweep thicker particles into the machine so suction can focus on fine particles. Another review describes Twin-capture technology across the Nurovi range and sensing that adjusts suction to dust levels and floor types.
