- Independent confirmation of taught-chore reliability is not yet on record
On readiness
- Preorders cover a first batch of 50 units only
- Deliveries are planned to begin in December 2026
- No independent delivery or owner reports exist yet

Announcement
Flourish Robots introduced Flourish 1 on September 29, 2026 and opened preorders for an initial batch of 50 units at $3,555, with deliveries planned from December 2026.
Hardware as reported
Launch coverage describes a wheeled base with a humanoid upper body and two arms, a height of about 3 feet 7 inches, a weight of about 44 pounds and up to 12 hours of battery life. Grippers are two-fingered and carry wrist cameras, and the base uses lidar for obstacle detection.
Teaching method
Owners demonstrate a chore by moving a phone, and the arms mirror the motion. The maker says models are then fine-tuned per task and per home, with cloud processing used for training and inference.
Listed chores
Coverage lists putting shoes away, moving clothes to a basket, discarding trash, wiping tables and watering plants. Dishwasher unloading, table setting and food preparation are described as planned.
