The latest flagship models combine intelligent capabilities with an intuitive design to modernize convenience and efficiency in floor care
SEATTLE, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Tineco, a leader in intelligent home appliances with over 19.5 million global users, continues to push boundaries in smart floor care with the debut of its most advanced product lineup to date: the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Series. This new series launches with two powerful models, the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam and FLOOR ONE S9 Artist PRO, each engineered to streamline floor cleaning with innovative features tailored to different household needs.
Both models combine vacuuming and mopping in one streamlined design, powered by intelligent sensors and user-friendly features. The S9 Artist Steam is engineered for deep-cleaning performance, effectively replacing the need for multiple tools and harsh chemicals by combining vacuuming, mopping, and 284°F steam cleaning into an all-in-one solution, ideal for households looking for an elevated deep-cleaning experience with the sanitizing power of high-temperature steam. The S9 Artist PRO, on the other hand, is built for high-efficiency, everyday performance, offering all the smart functionality and maneuverability the Artist Series is known for in a sleek, accessible package.
Key features of the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Series include:
Powerful Cleaning Performance
- DualBlock Anti-Tangle Brush Head: Dual-layer scrapers prevent hair from tangling, ensuring smooth, clog-free operation across both models
- iLoop Smart Sensor: Detects messes in real time and adjusts suction power and water flow automatically for efficient, precise cleaning
- HyperSteam Technology (S9 Artist Steam): Innovative boiler heats steam to 284°F to tackle stuck-on stains and grease without chemicals
Designed to Fit Your Lifestyle
- SmoothDrive Technology: Built-in gyroscope and sensor-based drive system enables flexible steering and a 90° swivel angle for easy control
- Streamlined Maneuverability: Both models feature a low center of gravity and lightweight feel for effortless use on any floor type
- Triple-Sided Edge Cleaning + 180° Lay-Flat Design (S9 Artist Steam): Deep reach under furniture and alongside baseboards for whole-home precision
- Dual-Sided Edge Cleaning + 180° Lay-Flat Design (S9 Artist PRO): Covers both sides of the brush head for fast, efficient cleaning around everyday obstacles
Elevated User Experience
- Dynamic Displays: 3D Lights shift color to indicate cleaning status, with a real-time screen that guides the user through each step
- LED Headlight: Illuminates hidden dust and dirt in dark corners or beneath furniture
- FlashDry Self-Cleaning System (S9 Artist Steam): Automatically rinses and heat-dries internal components, keeping the unit fresh between uses
- Battery Options for Every Routine:
- S9 Artist Steam: High-capacity 7×6250mAh battery for up to 75 minutes of uninterrupted runtime
- S9 Artist PRO: Lightweight 7×4000mAh system optimized for fast, powerful daily cleans
