Roborock kept the Saros 10 to 3.14 inches tall by making its LiDAR sensor retractable, so it can slide under low furniture. It pairs 22,000Pa suction with hot water sonic mopping, detaches its own mop before tackling carpet, and returns to a dock that washes the mop at 80 degrees C and dries it with heated air. A robot for homes with mixed floors and little patience for chores.
