South Korean media: Close to 70%, Chinese robot vacuums are sweeping the world!
On February 8, South Korean media "Today's Finance" published an article stating that Chinese robot vacuums are rapidly expanding their influence in the global market.
At the 2026 Las Vegas International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the latest smart home devices launched by Chinese brands, including AI robot vacuums, have attracted widespread attention and shown significant growth in actual market sales.
According to market research, the cumulative shipment of smart robot vacuums worldwide from the first quarter to the third quarter of 2025 was approximately 17.424 million units, representing a year-on-year increase of 18.7%.
Among them, the top five Chinese brands—Roborock, Ecovacs, Dyson (Dreame), Xiaomi, and Imjuz—accounted for nearly 70% of the market share, proving that Chinese products hold an overwhelming share in the global market.
At the 2026 CES, several advanced robot vacuums were unveiled, which not only have simple cleaning functions but also possess cognitive, decision-making, and execution capabilities based on artificial intelligence.
Some new products from Chinese companies have surpassed traditional wheeled mobility methods and have been introduced in futuristic forms with "the ability to run or even fly."
This technological capability has attracted great consumer interest, demonstrating the potential to flexibly adapt to various living environments within integrated smart home scenarios.
The growth of Chinese products in the global market is attributed to their strong supply chain and rapid technological development.
In particular, robot vacuums incorporating artificial intelligence algorithms have demonstrated performance that surpasses the limitations of existing robot vacuums, such as identifying the surrounding environment, avoiding obstacles, and performing operations customized to users' lifestyles.
The popularity of these Chinese robot vacuums is not only reflected in high-tech exhibitions but also in major consumer markets such as Europe and Southeast Asia.
As consumers increasingly demand interconnectedness between complex smart home devices and expect AI-based automation features, some analysts say that Chinese brands are rapidly dominating the global market.
Driven by AI technology products, the global robot vacuum market is expected to continue accelerating its growth.
It is expected that Chinese companies will continue to expand their share in the global market by constantly improving their technological competitiveness and innovation.
