What the differences mean
Mopping and dock
The Roborock Qrevo Pro mops and its dock washes the pads in hot water, dries them and refills the tank. The iRobot Roomba 105 has no mopping hardware at all, so it is a vacuum-only machine.
Self-emptying
The Roborock Qrevo Pro empties its own bin at the dock, while the iRobot Roomba 105 needs the onboard bin emptied by hand.
Battery
The Roborock Qrevo Pro runs up to 180 minutes against 120 on the iRobot Roomba 105, so it covers more floor before recharging.
Suction
Both are rated at 7,000 Pa, so suction is not the difference between them. The Roborock Qrevo Pro separates itself with the mop, the dock and the longer runtime.
Smart home support
The Roborock Qrevo Pro works with Alexa, Google Home and Siri and adds Home Assistant. The iRobot Roomba 105 covers Alexa, Google Home and IFTTT, with no Home Assistant, Apple Home or Matter.
Edge cleaning
The Roborock Qrevo Pro extends its mop and side brush out to the baseboard, which is the gap most robot mops leave. The iRobot Roomba 105 is a vacuum only, so edges depend on its side brush alone.
Which one to buy if
- you want floors mopped, not just vacuumed
The Roborock Qrevo Pro mops with an extending pad and washes and dries it at the dock.
- you are on a tight budget
The iRobot Roomba 105 is the cheaper of the two and covers mapped vacuuming well.
- you want edges and baseboards cleaned
The Roborock Qrevo Pro extends its mop out to the baseboard, which is where pad robots usually stop.
- you never want to empty a bin by hand
The Roborock Qrevo Pro self-empties at its dock, while the iRobot Roomba 105 does not.
- you want the longer runtime
The Roborock Qrevo Pro runs up to 180 minutes against 120 on the iRobot Roomba 105.

What owners say
Owners of both recommend letting the robot complete a full mapping run first, and both groups then trust the app for schedules and zones. iRobot Roomba 105 owners like the organized LiDAR rows, the strong pickup of pet hair for the money and the large bin, and they flag a battery that can fall short in bigger homes and weaker suction on thicker carpet. Roborock Qrevo Pro owners describe edge mopping with the extending pad as the feature that sold them, along with hot-water pad washing and a well-liked app, but a recurring theme is failure shortly after the one-year warranty, with repairs quoted rather than replacements.
