With the Zeo X, Roborock is entering a new product field: the premium washer-dryer market. Unveiled at IFA 2025, the new flagship appliance combines minimalist design, gentle yet powerful textile care and a connected smart home experience. The manufacturer, known as the world’s leading brand for robot vacuum cleaners, is now transferring its expertise to the world of large appliances – and aims to make everyday life in modern households noticeably easier.
- Zeo-cycle: the world’s first zeolite-based low-temperature drying system
- FineFoam Ultra-Clean: micro-foam for deep-clean and gentle washing
- RR Seafarer algorithm: intelligent washing and drying control in real time
- RRP € 1,499 in selected EU markets
Design as a lifestyle statement
The Zeo X is much more than just a domestic appliance. With an installation depth of just 594 mm, it fits flush into standard kitchen fronts and still offers a capacity of 11 kg washing and 6 kg drying. At the heart of the design is the GloScreen Invisible Touch Door, a fully glazed control panel that remains invisible when switched off and only transforms into an intuitive touch interface when activated. This clear design language, combined with minimalist integration, makes the Zeo X a visual statement in modern living environments.
The awards also show that Roborock is focusing on a new design language here: Both the iF Design Award and the Red Dot Award recognized the Zeo X for its combination of technical sophistication and aesthetic appeal. The washer-dryer thus positions itself as a lifestyle product that combines functionality with a high standard of living aesthetics.
Innovation in textile care
A key feature is the Zeo-cycle technology, which is based on the natural mineral zeolite. Instead of drying at high temperatures, moisture is removed at 37-50 °C by molecular absorption. This is gentle on delicate textiles such as wool or silk and also reduces the risk of shrinkage or material damage. Certifications such as the Woolmark Green Label confirm its suitability for sensitive materials.
In addition, FineFoam technology ensures more efficient pre-treatment of the laundry. A special air-water process creates microfoam that penetrates deep into the fabric, shortens washing times and significantly reduces water and energy consumption. All processes are controlled by the RR Seafarer algorithm, which adjusts parameters such as water flow, drum movement and drying in real time. In this way, each load is treated individually and gently.
This combination addresses classic washer-dryer problems – overheating, overdrying or long wash cycles – and offers a high-quality solution suitable for everyday use.
Hygiene and smart features for everyday use
In addition to design and care, hygiene also plays an important role. The Zeo X is TÜV-certified and removes 99.99% of bacteria and up to 99% of allergens and mites in the hygiene program. An antibacterial door seal and a self-cleaning drum system ensure additional safety. A special heavy-duty program removes even stubborn stains such as red wine or coffee.
When it comes to smart control, Roborock draws on its experience in the field of robot vacuum cleaners. Via the Roborock app, users can choose from up to 30 programs, schedule cycles or start them remotely. Functions such as Smart Dosing – automatic detergent dosing – reduce consumption by up to 78% and enable up to 30 days of maintenance-free use. The Laundry Aftercare System keeps clothes fresh and crease-free for up to 24 hours – a function that is particularly practical in everyday life with changing work and life rhythms.
Conclusion
With the Zeo X, Roborock is expanding its portfolio with a premium large appliance that combines functionality, aesthetics and smart automation. The appliance addresses the central weaknesses of conventional washer-dryers and sets new standards in textile care with Zeo-cycle, FineFoam and intelligent control. For households that value convenience, design and efficiency, the Roborock Zeo X could become the new benchmark. It is available in selected EU markets at a price of €1,499.
