New Product Dyson R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry Robot Vacuum Cleaner

The scoop

If you’ve been putting off upgrading your vacuum situation, the Dyson R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry Robot Vacuum Cleaner might be worth a look. This is Dyson’s take on the all-in-one robot vacuum and mop, and it’s packed with tech that goes well beyond your average robot cleaner.

The R2 Nurovi combines vacuuming and mopping in a single pass using what Dyson calls Twin-Capture Cleaning. It pairs high-speed LIDAR navigation with a self-emptying Nurovi dock, so the unit can map your floors, clean them, and empty itself out without you lifting a finger. The Reuleaux Triangle mop pads are designed to reach into corners that round robot mops typically miss.

At 7.9 pounds, this is a fairly compact unit, and the combination of 21,000 Pa suction power with mopping capability suggests Dyson is aiming this squarely at households that want deep cleaning without babysitting the machine. Robot vacuum-mop combos can be hit or miss on corner coverage, but the triangle-shaped pads here look like a smart engineering answer to that common complaint.

The bottom line: if you’re tired of juggling a separate vacuum and mop routine, the Dyson R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry Robot Vacuum Cleaner looks like a genuinely capable all-in-one option for keeping floors clean with minimal effort.
