Launch
Roborock’s Saros 20 Flow Complete began US commercial sale 14 Sep 2026, following its September IFA 2026 preview in Berlin. Launch pricing is $1,499.99 through 20 Sep 2026, after which the standard price is $1,699.99. Roborock states a Canadian launch follows in October 2026.
Mopping System
SpiraFlow 2.0 is a pressurized self-cleaning roller mop system distributing clean water from 16 outlets, double the hydration points of the prior generation, with the roller spinning up to 240 RPM and applying up to 15N of downward mopping pressure. The roller extends outward for edge coverage and automatically lifts up to 15 mm when the unit transitions onto carpet.
Suction and Navigation
Roborock states 36,000 Pa of suction power and AI obstacle avoidance recognizing more than 300 household object categories, with claimed maintained recognition in lower-light conditions. The AdaptiLift chassis is specified to handle double-layer thresholds up to 3.46 in. The dock washes the roller with water up to 212F, dries it with warm air, automatically dispenses detergent, refills the robot with warm water, and empties collected debris.
