Part of our job on the Mashable sales team is to vet not only the best technology, but also the fancy technology. This is the case of the Roborock Saros Z70, a robot vacuum cleaner equipped with a mechanical arm to move obstacles. We’ve reviewed the robot vacuum, and while we don’t think it’s worth its usual $2,599 price, we’re more convinced by its current discounted price.

As of October 23, the Roborock Saros Z70 is down to $1,399.99. That’s almost $1,200 less than its usual price of $2,599, a savings of 46%. Not to mention, it’s the lowest price we’ve ever seen on the robot vacuum and mop.

So, what’s so special about the Roborock Saros Z70 robot vacuum and mop? Well, let’s talk about the mechanical arm. The included grab arm, as we affectionately call it, picks up items, whether it’s a misplaced sock or shoe, and moves them to their designated home. But how fair is this feature? It’s no big deal – and our reviewer actually recommends turning it off.

Otherwise, the device still has powerful vacuuming and scrubbing action, making it a solid robot vacuum and mop combo. While we didn’t think it was worth its MSRP of $2,599, it’s more than worth its discounted price of $1,399.99 on Amazon.
