Narwal has unleashed a whole fleet of new robot vacuums at CES 2025, but the one that has particularly caught my eye is the Narwal Flow, which has an innovative way of making sure it gets your carpets properly clean, as well as a rather clever mopping system designed to remove the dirt from your hard floors, rather than just smearing it about.

We rate Narwal amongst the best robot vacuum makers around. While its innovations are slightly less flashy than what other brands are showing at CES (Dreame's new bot can climb stairs, Roborock's has a mechanical arm that'll pick up your socks, and SwitchBot's will deliver you your lunch) they might be more genuinely useful.

Let's start with the vacuuming. Typically, robot vacuums can struggle to pull dust from thicker carpets, but the Flow has a new different features to help ensure a deeper clean. First up, it'll do a kind of moonwalk on your floor: it first vacuums forward, and then reverses, tackling ingrained dirt and hair from both directions. The backwards motion also helps to lift the carpet fibers and release anything stuck deeper in there. Narwal says this approach results in double the dust pickup compared to regular forwards-only driving bots.
