What reviewers say about the Roborock Saros Z70
Both whitelisted hands-on testers (TechRadar, over two weeks; Digital Trends) reviewed the exact Roborock Saros Z70 and reach the same verdict: excellent vacuuming, mopping and StarSight navigation, but the ~$2,600 robotic arm is buggy and unreliable when left to work autonomously. Both advise buying a cheaper armless sibling (Saros 10 / 10R) unless you specifically want the arm tech.

- Review unit rattled audibly while cleaning
Where reviewers disagree Little cross-source disagreement — both conclude it's an excellent cleaner whose arm isn't ready for prime time. TechRadar is slightly more hopeful, praising the reliable remote-controlled arm (useful for those with mobility issues) and promised firmware fixes, while Digital Trends is blunter that the arm 'just can't get a grip.' The audible rattle was noted only by TechRadar.

Elsewhere, the cleaning, navigation and control are all outstanding.
I was especially impressed with the Saros Z70's mopping ability.
The trouble is that conditions need to be perfect for the bot to actually clear anything away... so much so, that I've yet to have a successful run.
the Saros Z70 does an excellent job of cleaning all types of floors.
it frequently misses the object or grabs it awkwardly and later drops it.
it doesn't do enough to justify its eye-watering price tag of $2,600 (inflated from the original price of $1,900 due to tariffs).
