- The Dreame Cyber10 Extremely is a robotic vacuum with a mechanical arm
- It has a pincer to maneuver litter, however also can choose element instruments to brush or mud with
- It is a bit sluggish and clunky, however loads of potential
For the previous 12 months or so, robotic vacuum manufacturers have been weirdly preoccupied with including mechanical arms to their bots. Thus far, we have solely seen one instance truly make it to market – the Roborock Saros Z70, which I discovered seemed cool however wasn’t truly that helpful in apply (it hasn’t made it into my finest robotic vacuum suggestions checklist).
Nevertheless, I’ve simply seen Dreame’s tackle the concept at IFA 2025, and it provides some new performance that would change my thoughts about arm-equipped robotic vacuums.
Like Roborock’s mannequin, the Dreame Cyber10 Extremely’s arm has a pincer for tidying away litter. Nevertheless, the place it differs is that the Cyber10 also can choose from a variety of element instruments, which connect to the top of the arm and allow it to carry out different cleansing duties.
At the moment, there is a brush for cleansing into the corners of rooms, and a duster for dusting baseboards. I noticed the previous in motion and it did not fairly blow me away, however I feel the idea has tons of potential.
First the bot approached the dock – which has hutches that comprise the additional instruments – and very slowly chosen the proper device for what it wished to do. It then docked the device on the top of its arm, earlier than making its approach over to the nook of the demo space to do some dusting.
There’s apparently a suction channel throughout the arm, so the bot is definitely vacuuming (presumably fairly gently) on the top of its arm. The cleansing course of appeared very torpid, and the device did not look very safe on the top of the arm, however think about the effort-saving potential if the design was developed and improved.
I haven’t got a launch date or pricing specifics, however there’s sufficient info accessible to make me assume this bot is perhaps making its technique to market earlier than too lengthy.
