Tech company iGarden revealed several new products at CES 2025, but the TurboX and TurboX Master robotic pool cleaners were undoubtedly the most exciting. Both are designed to make pool maintenance effortless — but it’s the TurboX Master and its staggering 15-hour runtime that stood out from the rest of the iGarden lineup.

The iGarden TurboX Master is expected to launch in April, and it’s poised to make waves in the robotic pool cleaner marketplace. While most products can only run for a few hours before needing a recharge, this one can clean for 15 hours before running out of juice. In fact, iGarden says it holds the Guinness Record for the longest continuous operation of a robotic pool cleaner. This is due to its unique AI-inverter technology, which results enhanced battery efficiency without skimping on a premium clean.

Featuring an array of infrared sensors, a gyroscope, and the ability to return to its drop-off point once its battery is drained, it’s a well-designed robot. It looks pretty sleek, too, thanks to a supercar-inspired design that looks just as good as premium pool cleaners from big names like Polaris, Aiper, and Beatbot.

Capable of cleaning both the waterline and removing algae and other stains from the pool floor, it could be a solid choice for autonomous maintenance. According to iGarden, it works with a wide variety of pool shapes and sizes, and is capable of  “cleaning every inch of your pool.”

Best of all, you can easily create cleaning schedules or specify areas that need to be tackled more often — such as walls or floors. And because the pool cleaner features a month of standby time, you won’t have to recharge the device or worry about manual maintenance very often. That means (depending on your settings and pool size), you might only need to charge the robot once a month. Considering most other robotic pool cleaners need to be recharged after each cleaning, that’s a huge win for iGarden.

Toss in a touchscreen interface, a two-year warranty, and a UV-resistant design, and the iGarden TurboX Master is definitely worth keeping an eye on. Expect to learn more about pricing in the coming weeks.

Tineco shows off three new ways to vacuum, steam, and clean your floors at CES 2025
Tineco Pure One Station Five

Tineco showcased three products at CES 2025, giving you three fancy new ways to vacuum, steam, and clean your floors. The Floor One S9 Artist Steam was the highlight of the trio, as it can produce steam to tackle tough stains, features a lay-flat design, and will automatically adjust its settings to best deal with the challenge at hand.

The Tineco Floor One S9 Artist Steam was designed to streamline all aspects of your floor cleaning chores. It produces steam (which hits temperatures up to 264 degrees Fahrenheit) to  quickly remove common stains produced by ketchup, chocolate syrup, pasta, and other household hazards, It can also lay flat to reduce its height to less than 13 centimeters -- giving you a chance to reach under furniture where larger cleaners can't fit. Along with automatically changing settings based on the dirt levels detected by its sensors, it benefits from Aurora AI Lights that change color dynamically depending on the cleaning status.

Ultraloq showcases the first-ever ultra-wideband smart lock at CES 2025

Ultraloq showed off two smart locks at CES 2025 -- one of which is the first smart lock to ever offer ultra-wideband (UWB) support. The Ultraloq Bolt Mission UWB + NFC uses UWB technology to unlock automatically as you approach your front door. Similar functionality already exists on other smart locks, but UWB should allow the Ultraloq Bolt Mission to be more accurate than the competition.

The Bolt Mission uses technology similar to digital car keys, and Ultraloq says it can track the keyholder’s phone location with “centimeter-level” accuracy. As your phone gets closer to the front door, the Bolt Mission can be programmed to automatically unlock, giving you a hands-free way to get inside. Better yet, because the smart lock can detect both your distance and direction from the front door, it should prevent you from accidentally unlocking the smart lock while inside your home.

Lymow shows off robotic lawn mower with mulching blades, tracked treads at CES

Lymow is hoping to shake up the robotic lawn mower industry later this year with the Lymow One -- an upcoming mower equipped with mulching blades and unique tracked treads. The team’s goal is to “fully replace traditional mowers,” making your lawn maintenance routine easier than ever before. The Lymow One was on full display at CES 2025, and it boasts an impressive list of stats that make it a smart home gadget to watch ahead of its launch in April.

One of the most exciting aspects of the Lymow One is its mowing deck, which houses professional-grade mulching blades. These are common on ride-on and traditional lawnmowers and should provide a better cut than the metal sheet swing blades found on many other robotic lawn mowers. The two blades are powered by a brushless motor capable of a peak output of 1,200 watts (spinning them at 6,000 RPM and cutting at a width of 16 inches). In other words, it should have no problem cutting through even the most overgrown of backyards.
