What the differences mean
Mopping and dock
The iRobot Roomba 415X vacuums and mops, lifting its pads over rugs, and its AutoWash dock empties the bin and washes and dries the pads. The iRobot Roomba 105 is vacuum-only with no self-emptying, so you empty the bin after runs.
Runtime
360 minutes on the iRobot Roomba 415X against 200 on the iRobot Roomba 105. Owners of the 105 mention recharging mid-clean in larger homes; the 415X has far more headroom.
Size
The iRobot Roomba 415X measures 298 x 303 mm and 84 mm tall, against 335 x 335 mm and 104 mm on the iRobot Roomba 105, so it fits under more beds and sofas and between tighter chair legs.
Smart home
Both work with Alexa and Google Home, and neither supports Apple Home, SmartThings or Matter. iRobot does not document Home Assistant for the iRobot Roomba 415X; the iRobot Roomba 105 does not support it.
Which one to buy if
- you want vacuuming and mopping done without you
The iRobot Roomba 415X's dock empties the bin and washes and dries the mop pads.
- you have carpet only and a tight budget
The iRobot Roomba 105 is the more affordable, and a mop adds nothing on carpet.
- your beds and sofas sit low
At 84 mm tall, the iRobot Roomba 415X reaches under furniture the 104 mm Roomba 105 cannot.
- your home is large
The iRobot Roomba 415X's 360 minute rating covers far more floor than 200 minutes.

What owners say
Owners of both Roombas praise quiet operation and straightforward setup, and both groups say the suction handles pet hair and everyday debris well. iRobot Roomba 105 owners single out LiDAR mapping that cleans in organised rows and a bin that lasts a few days, while their complaints are runtime that can fall short in a larger home, weaker results on thicker carpet and a few battery or navigation faults after some months. iRobot Roomba 415X owners talk most about the AutoWash dock that empties the bin and washes and dries the pads, mop lifting that lets one run cover rugs and hard floors, and a slim body that reaches under beds, and their complaints are an app that trips over room names and error messages and hair tangling around the mop module.
