What the differences mean

Mopping and dock

The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone washes, dries and lifts its roller mop at a self-emptying, bagless dock. The iRobot Roomba 105 has no mopping or self-emptying hardware.

Battery

The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone runs up to 200 minutes against 120 on the iRobot Roomba 105, so it covers more floor per charge.

Dust bags

The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone empties into a 1.6 L reusable container with no bags to buy. The iRobot Roomba 105 has no self-emptying at all, so the bin is emptied by hand.

Smart home support

The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone works with Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant. The iRobot Roomba 105 covers Alexa, Google Home and IFTTT, with no Home Assistant, Apple Home or Matter.

Body

The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone is 98 mm tall and clears low furniture, while the iRobot Roomba 105 is 104 mm and lighter, so the iRobot is the easier one to lift.

Price

The iRobot Roomba 105 is the cheaper of the two by a wide margin. The Ecovacs DEEBOT X12S OmniCyclone costs more because it mops, self-empties and runs longer.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of the iRobot Roomba 105 came to it mostly as a first mapped vacuum or an upgrade from a much older one, and they report a clear step up. The LiDAR mapping that runs in neat rows, the solid pet-hair pickup for the price and the bigger dustbin come up again and again, as does simpler, quieter operation than their previous non-mapping machines. They accept that it neither mops nor empties itself. The consistent warnings are runtime that can need a recharge on larger floors, suction that fades on thicker carpet, and a minority who saw battery or navigation faults a few months in.

Price history compared

Every price change of both, in the same store, so the gap between the two lines is what one costs more than the other.
