iRobot Roomba 105 Combo vs iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock

Full Robot Vacuums comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official iRobot site.
2026 verdict
Interestingly, the plain iRobot Roomba 105 runs longer than its own Combo variant, but between these two combo models the iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock still wins, running about 120 minutes per charge against the iRobot Roomba 105 Combo's 100, while also self-emptying and washing and drying its own mop pad automatically. It also connects over dual-band Wi-Fi with Bluetooth and supports Apple HomeKit, Home Assistant and Matter, none of which the 105 Combo offers. The 105 Combo mops with plain water only and needs the bin emptied by hand, but it stays the simpler, lower-priced way to get basic vacuum-and-mop coverage. Buyers who want automated mop washing, self-emptying and broader smart-home reach should choose the Combo 10 Max; those who want basic combined cleaning without a large self-cleaning dock should pick the iRobot Roomba 105 Combo.
