- iGarden introduced the M1 series at CES 2026, evolving the design of last year’s K series.
- M1 series adds a bulbous cockpit component that houses a revamped debris basket with a 4.5‑liter capacity, up from the K series’ 4‑liter basket.
- M1 series is offered in fire‑engine red or black, with the reviewer receiving the black unit.
- iGarden designs its pool cleaners to resemble high‑end automobiles rather than typical robotic cleaners.
- M1 series retains the sleek, streamlined look of previous models while adding the new basket design.
Why it matters: Pool owners gain a cleaner that holds 0.5 L more debris, reducing empty‑cycle frequency, while iGarden capitalizes on a high‑end automotive aesthetic to stand out in a market of otherwise uniform robotic cleaners. This larger basket and sportier look could justify a higher price point, giving iGarden a competitive edge among style‑conscious consumers.
