Roborock

Roborock is the brand of Beijing Roborock Technology Co., Ltd., founded in July 2014 and headquartered in Beijing, with research and development offices in Shanghai and Shenzhen and an international office in Hong Kong. The company develops and manufactures robot vacuums, wet and dry vacuums, cordless stick vacuums and washer dryers, built so that people spend less time on chores.

Its first product, a Mi Home robotic vacuum launched in September 2016, became the best-selling robot cleaner in China; the Roborock robot vacuum followed in 2017, crowdfunding over CNY 10 million in four hours.
