Debuting at CES 2016, the 'Grillbot' is a grill cleaning robot that will automatically clean your grill's surface for you, leaving you free to sit back and enjoy yourself. Simply place the robot inside either a gas or charcoal grill, and let its three replaceable brass bristles do the hard work for you.
The unit is even capable of cleaning the grill while it's still hot, providing the temperature is below 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Built-in sensors control the speed and direction of the robot, and it even features a LCD alarm that will let you when it's all done tidying up your grill.
