Until now, despite the advancements in robot vacuum cleaners, efficient floor cleaners, and even well-designed window cleaners, there has always been a significant limitation—they couldn’t climb stairs. This has posed a major obstacle for households with staircases. However, Migo Robotics has finally addressed this challenge with an innovative solution, marking a significant breakthrough in home cleaning equipment.
The Ascender or how to change the rules of the game
Until now, if you owned a two-story house and desired a robot vacuum cleaner, you were faced with limited options. You could either choose one floor for the robot to clean and handle the other floor manually, invest in two separate robots, or opt for a robot that could recognize and manage two floors (requiring manual relocation between floors).
The idea of a robot effortlessly ascending stairs seemed implausible due to design limitations and bulkiness, leading many of us to accept it as an unattainable feature. However, Migo Robotics has defied these preconceptions by introducing The Ascender, the market’s first robot capable of climbing stairs. This breakthrough innovation challenges our expectations and opens up new possibilities for home cleaning technology.
In order to achieve this remarkable feat, The Ascender features a unique square design, deviating from the traditional round shape seen in most robot vacuum cleaners. What sets it apart are its ingenious lateral legs, enabling it to securely grasp and ascend each step. Once on the step, the robot utilizes its lower wheels to navigate laterally, seamlessly transitioning from one side to another, ensuring comprehensive cleaning coverage.
This groundbreaking development represents a significant leap forward in the industry and has the potential to address challenges faced by many homeowners. It won’t be long before The Ascender hits store shelves, revolutionizing the way we approach home cleaning tasks.
Price and availability of The Ascender
After watching the video, you might have initially thought that such a concept would take a long time to become a reality and be available for purchase. However, Migo Robotics aims to prove that notion wrong. The company, boasting a team of experts from renowned companies such as Google, Boston Dynamics, Ecovacs, and Dyson, assures us that The Ascender will be available for sale as early as this August, just over two months from now.
In fact, you can already secure your spot by reserving The Ascender on the manufacturer’s official website, with a nominal fee of $5. By doing so, not only will you be among the first to own this groundbreaking robot, but you will also enjoy a promotional price of $999, saving $400 compared to the future retail price of $1,399.
So, are you ready to take the leap and give it a try?
