# Stair-Climbing Robot Vacuums The Migo Ascender Cleans Multi-Level Homes and Stairs By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2023-06-13 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/migo-ascender References: [coolthings](https://www.coolthings.com/migo-ascender-cleaning-robot-vacuum-mop-climb-stairs/) & [migorobotics](https://www.migorobotics.com/pages/ascender)  Robot vacuums have become commonplace for many consumers looking to autonomously clean their living space floors but are limited to a single level, which where the [Migo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/migo-chair) [Ascender](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expedition-camper) is engineered to change things. The robot vacuum is characterized by its squarish design that will use 6,000Pa suction power to capture most dust, dirt and debris, while the mopping brush head rotates at 3,5000RPM for complete cleaning. The system is equipped with LiDAR scanners and vision sensors to effectively navigate the space, but also intelligently plan out routes and avoid obstacles. The Migo Ascender is rated to cover 5,167-square-feet of living space, but truly sets itself apart from the competition with its [stair-climbing functionality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deebot-x11). The robot is capable of traversing a staircase to not only clean a whole different level, but also the stairs themselves. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 16% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/robots) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Multi-level Robot Vacuums:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced robot vacuums that can clean multiple levels of homes and navigate stairs. - **Squarish Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create robot vacuums with a unique squarish design that optimizes cleaning performance and navigation. - **Stair-climbing Functionality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design robot vacuums with the ability to climb stairs, enabling them to clean multiple levels of homes. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Appliances:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Revolutionize the home appliance industry by creating advanced robot vacuums that can clean multi-level homes and stairs. - **Robotics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Drive innovation in the robotics industry by developing robot vacuums with advanced navigation capabilities and stair-climbing functionality. - **Smart Home Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Enhance smart home technology by integrating intelligent robot vacuums that can clean multiple levels and stairs into existing systems. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stair-Climbing Robotic Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ascender-robot.md) - [Stair-Climbing Robot Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyber-x.md) - [Stair-Climbing Robot Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roborock-saros-rover.md) - [High-Performance Robot Vacuum Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highperformance-robot-vacuum.md) - [Dual-Cleaning Robot Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xiaomi-robot-vacuum.md) - [Self-Elevating Robot Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roborock-qrevo-curv.md) - [Compact Self-Cleaning Robotic Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfcleaning-robotic-vacuum.md) - [Self-Navigating Robot Mops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zigma.md) - [Automatic Maintenance Robot Vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ezviz-rs.md)
