ECOVACS Wants to Run Your Whole Home, and Yes, There’s a Robot Dog

ECOVACS used CES 2026 to show it is pushing well beyond robot vacuums. The company announced new products for pools, lawns, windows, and even a companion-style puppy robot, while also refreshing its core DEEBOT lineup. The theme across all announcements was expanding automation into more parts of the home and reducing hands-on maintenance.

One of the biggest moves is ECOVACS’ splash into pool cleaning with ULTRAMARINE, its first robotic pool cleaner. The company says the robot is designed to clean pool floors, walls, and waterlines using rollers and smart navigation that maps the shape of the pool. Control is handled through an app, with the goal of avoiding common issues like missed spots and complex setup. Cleaning your pool (and regular maintenance during use) after the winter and spring season can be a pain, which is why robot pool cleaners have become so popular.

ECOVACS is also moving into a very different category with LilMilo, its first companion-style robot that looks like a little cute puppy. LilMilo is designed to recognize voices, respond to interaction, and adapt its behaviour over time (no word yet if this little pup can fetch you a beer though). Unlike smart speakers or home hubs, it focuses on emotional interaction rather than controlling smart devices or managing chores. No time to take care of a dog? This might be one for the kiddos…

Floor cleaning is still a major focus, with the new DEEBOT X12 OmniCyclone serving as the flagship robot vacuum for 2026. It adds stain pre-treatment, stronger edge cleaning, improved anti-tangle technology, and faster charging. The mop system is larger and can wash itself during cleaning, which is meant to reduce manual upkeep.

Alongside it, ECOVACS announced the T90 PRO OMNI, which brings faster charging to the more affordable T-Series. It is aimed at larger homes and includes strong suction, automatic dirt disposal, and a fully automated OMNI dock that handles mop cleaning and emptying.

Outside the home, ECOVACS expanded its GOAT LiDAR PRO robotic lawn mower lineup with improved 3D lawn mapping and an integrated edge trimmer to reduce the need for manual cleanup along borders.

For windows, the company introduced the WINBOT W3 OMNI. This model now adds a dock that automatically washes and prepares cleaning pads, removing the need for manual rinsing. ECOVACS also says it improves edge coverage, speed, suction, and safety systems, especially for multi-story homes.
ECOVACS wasted no time by debuting its complete CES 2026 lineup, which shows a clear push toward whole-home robotics and beyond. We’ll get confirmation of Canadian availability and pricing soon, stay tuned.
