What the differences mean
Navigation
The Eufy 11S MAX bumps its way around with no saved map, so it can repeat or skip areas and never resumes where it left off after recharging. The iRobot Roomba Max 705 builds a LiDAR map with multi-room support and no-go zones.
Suction power
13,000Pa against 2,000Pa is not a close call: expect the iRobot Roomba Max 705 to lift far more embedded dirt and pet hair from carpet than the Eufy 11S MAX, which is built for everyday hard-floor dust.
Connectivity
The Eufy 11S MAX has no Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or any radio at all, so it is driven entirely by its bundled remote. The iRobot Roomba Max 705 connects over 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi and works with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings and Home Assistant.
Emptying the bin
The iRobot Roomba Max 705's AutoEmpty dock empties itself for up to 75 days. The Eufy 11S MAX has no dock at all; its 600 ml bin is emptied by hand, which is quick but has to be done every run or two.
Which one to buy if
- you specifically do not want an app, Wi-Fi or a subscription
The Eufy 11S MAX runs entirely from its bundled remote with no account of any kind.
- your home has several rooms you want mapped and cleaned on demand
The iRobot Roomba Max 705 builds a real LiDAR map with multi-room support and no-go zones; the Eufy 11S MAX has neither.
- carpet and heavier pet shedding are the main challenge
13,000Pa of suction and Carpet Boost handle that far better than the Eufy 11S MAX's 2,000Pa.
- you want the cheapest, highest-rated option for light daily upkeep
The Eufy 11S MAX costs less and carries a higher owner rating for straightforward hard-floor cleaning.

What owners say
Eufy 11S MAX owners keep circling back to how quiet it is, quieter than a fan or an AC unit, and how much fine dust and pet hair it picks up daily with nothing to set up beyond charging it, though several report side-brush motors failing within a year and note it repeats or misses spots with no saved map. iRobot Roomba Max 705 owners upgrading from older Roombas praise the LiDAR mapping as faster and more accurate with far less bumping into furniture, and call the AutoEmpty dock a genuine convenience win for pet hair on carpet, while a recurring complaint is Wi-Fi setup failing when a router password has special characters, plus occasional false stuck errors.
