Ecovacs, known for its robotic vacuums, lawn mowers, and window-cleaning systems, is taking the plunge—literally—with its first robotic pool cleaner: the Ultramarine. Unveiled at CES 2026, this marks the company’s first entry into the space, with a model the company describes as “built from the ground up” to address frustrations users have with existing robotic pool cleaners on the market; namely, poor coverage, overly complicated control systems, and unacceptable device longevity. The Ecovacs Ultramarine robotic pool cleaner has a scrubbing brush between its smaller rear wheels as well as between its large front ones. Ecovacs Details on the Ultramarine system are scarce at the moment, but photos of the unit reveal a mostly traditional design compared to other robots in the category, although its asymmetrical treads feature large front wheels and small rear wheels, presumably aiding its maneuverability. Two cylindrical scrubbing brushes are mounted between the treads, and an unusual rear -mounted scrubber also appears to be part of the design. Outfitted with a black, white, and blue color scheme, the unit has a slim profile that, at least based on photos, looks easy to wrestle in and out of the water. Published specs are scarce to nonexistent, but Ecovacs says the Ultramarine boasts a smart navigation system that allows it to map and adapt to various pool designs while cleaning floor, wall, and waterline areas. The unit also includes support for mobile app-based control and management. Details regarding pricing and availability have not yet been made public. Ecovacs says its new products will be on display at its booth at the Venetian Expo Center in Las Vegas from January 6 through 9.
