ECOVACS Launches WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI, the Latest Addition to the World’s #1 Robotic Window Cleaner Line

The latest WINBOT combines upgraded edge-to-edge scrubbing, cordless cleaning, intelligent navigation and comprehensive safety for a more effortless way to keep windows clean

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ECOVACS Robotics today launched the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI robotic window cleaner and WINBOT W2S PRO, the latest additions to the WINBOT family, following their global debut at IFA 2026 in Berlin. Showcasing ECOVACS’ latest advancements in robotic window cleaning, the new WINBOT models bring the company’s “Created for Ease” philosophy to a new generation of smarter, more effortless window cleaning. The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI combines precise edge-to-edge scrubbing, cordless cleaning, intelligent navigation and comprehensive safety features to transform a once-tiring chore into a more hands-free, worry-free experience.

Window cleaning can be a time-consuming and potentially hazardous household task, particularly for large, hard-to-reach and exterior windows. The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is designed to take the work out of the chore, delivering powerful cleaning across glass surfaces while helping users clean more windows with fewer interruptions.

Precision at Every Corner, High Performance from Edge to Edge

The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI features upgraded TruEdge 2.0 Technology, combining precise frame sensing with an optimized four-corner scrubbing system for more complete edge-to-edge cleaning coverage. Four active corner scrubbers use high-density felt bristles to target dirt along window borders and corners, while continuous frame detection helps the WINBOT maintain stable contact with window frames and edges. Together, the four-way scrubbing system delivers up to a 46% increase in cleaning efficiency compared with the previous generation, covering up to 1 square meter in 90 seconds.

The WINBOT can dynamically adjust its path and brush position as it encounters different window structures, helping minimize jamming and maintain consistent cleaning coverage without manual intervention. For tougher outdoor dirt such as rain stains, dust accumulation and bird droppings, its pressurized dual-side spray technology uses three precision spray nozzles on each side. The upgraded triple-nozzle design expands spray coverage to 90%, helping reduce dead spots while creating a fine, wind-resistant water film that loosens dirt before wiping. Combined with an ultra-fine microfiber wiping pad, the system helps lift away dust, pollen, water spots, fingerprints, smudges and pet marks for a streak-free finish.

For larger cleaning jobs, its 4.1 fl oz water reservoir provides up to 807 sq. ft. of coverage per fill, allowing users to clean more windows without repeatedly stopping to refill.

Multi-Purpose OMNI Station Redefines Convenience

The OMNI Station combines control, charging, power and storage in one portable base, making the WINBOT easy to set up, operate and transport. Its integrated 5200mAh battery provides up to 110 minutes of cordless cleaning, allowing users to clean in locations where power outlets may be difficult to access, such as balconies and bathrooms. The station can also connect directly to AC power for longer cleaning sessions.

A high-strength 2-in-1 compound cable combines power delivery and safety tethering in a single line and automatically retracts into the OMNI Station after cleaning, helping keep the setup organized and tangle-free. When the job is done, the WINBOT and its accessories can be stored inside the OMNI Station, while its soft rubber handle makes the station easy to carry.

Intelligently Adapts to Every Scenario

Powered by WIN-SLAM 4.0 Technology, the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI can adapt its path planning across a wide range of window layouts, including expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, frameless partitions and vanity mirrors. Its multi-sensor detection system continuously monitors window frames and obstacles, allowing the WINBOT to calculate a bypass strategy when it encounters obstacles such as window handles or locks and continue cleaning.

Through the ECOVACS mobile app, voice control or shortcut buttons on the OMNI Station, users can choose from eight cleaning modes to suit different cleaning needs and scenarios. At just 66dB, the WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is the quietest model in the WINBOT family to date. Its four-layer noise reduction system combines Dual-Wing Air Ducts, vibration control, acoustic padding and sound insulation to help deliver quieter operation.

Designed for Safety and Peace of Mind

The WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI features a 12-tier protection system combining hardware and software safeguards for a secure and reliable cleaning experience. Key protections include 10,000Pa suction power, automatic air pressure compensation, a floating wiping pad plate, anti-drop protection and power-off protection. The automatic air pressure compensation system detects air leaks in as little as 0.007 seconds and compensates to help maintain consistent suction.

If power is interrupted or the battery level becomes low, power-off protection keeps the WINBOT attached to the window for more than 30 minutes, providing additional time for users to respond.

For additional peace of mind, users can also enjoy insurance protection in the unlikely event of damage caused by a loss of suction.

Pricing and Availability

The ECOVACS WINBOT W2S PRO OMNI is now available at a limited-time launch price of $499.99, a $100 discount off its $599.99 MSRP, through September 14, 2026. The WINBOT W2S PRO is available at a limited-time launch price of $339.99, a $60 discount off its $399.99 MSRP, through September 7, 2026. Both are available through the official ECOVACS store on Amazon.
