The flagship with the party trick: a foldaway five-axis OmniGrip arm that picks up socks and light clutter (up to ~300g) before it starts cleaning. Genuinely useful if you have kids or pets shedding small objects on the floor, but it's a huge premium over the Saros 20 already on this site for a feature HA can't see or trigger — the arm only runs as part of Roborock's own cleaning routine, not as an exposed service.
What can Home Assistant control on the Roborock Saros Z70?
Uses the same native roborock integration as other Saros-series products (vacuum entity with start/pause/stop/dock, fan-speed and mop-intensity selects, battery/cleaning sensors, live map). The OmniGrip arm is a Roborock-app-only feature as far as could be confirmed — no dedicated HA service or entity for it was found in the integration docs, so don't assume it's automatable from HA.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the Roborock Saros Z70 work with Home Assistant locally?
- Partly. The Roborock Saros Z70 connects to Home Assistant through a built-in Home Assistant core integration (roborock), which relies on the Roborock cloud. It works in Home Assistant, but commands go via the internet and stop working during an outage of your connection or the Roborock service.
- Which protocol does the Roborock Saros Z70 use, and do I need a hub?
- The Roborock Saros Z70 uses Wi-Fi and Matter. To pair it with Home Assistant you need no hub — it joins your Wi-Fi network directly; or a Thread border router if it is Matter-over-Thread, or just your Wi-Fi network if it is Matter-over-Wi-Fi. Roborock's own hub is not required when you integrate through a built-in Home Assistant core integration (roborock).
- How much does the Roborock Saros Z70 cost in the UK?
- The lowest price we have listed for the Roborock Saros Z70 is £899.99 at Amazon UK. Prices were last checked in September 2026 and change often, so confirm on the retailer's page before buying.
