What the differences mean
Suction power
The Roborock Qrevo S5V is rated at 12,000 Pa against 7,000 Pa on the iRobot Roomba 105. That is a real gap on carpet and pet hair, though owners of the S5V still suggest raising suction settings above the defaults for heavy shedding.
Mopping and dock
The Roborock Qrevo S5V mops and its 2.7 L dock washes and dries the mop pads and empties the bin on its own, with mop lifting on carpet. The iRobot Roomba 105 has no mopping and no self-emptying dock, so both jobs stay manual.
Battery and runtime
The Roborock Qrevo S5V is rated at 180 minutes and the iRobot Roomba 105 at 120 minutes. In a larger home that is the difference between one clean pass and a mid-job recharge, which owners of the 105 regularly report.
Smart home support
The Roborock Qrevo S5V works with Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant. The iRobot Roomba 105 also works with Alexa and Google Home but not Home Assistant, and neither robot reaches Apple Home, SmartThings or Matter.
Noise
The Roborock Qrevo S5V is rated at 64 dB and owners say it is quiet enough for daytime or overnight runs. The iRobot Roomba 105 is also described as quieter than older robots, so on this point the two are closer than the rest of the comparison suggests.
Which one to buy if
- you want vacuuming and mopping from one robot
The Roborock Qrevo S5V mops and lifts its pads on carpet, while the iRobot Roomba 105 has no mopping at all.
- you want a dock that empties, washes and dries on its own
The Roborock Qrevo S5V's 2.7 L dock handles all three, where the iRobot Roomba 105 has no self-emptying base.
- you have a large home and want one long run
The Roborock Qrevo S5V is rated at 180 minutes against 120 minutes on the iRobot Roomba 105.
- you only need mapped vacuuming on a tight budget
The iRobot Roomba 105 is the cheaper of the pair and still maps in clean rows with no-go zones and room cleaning.

What owners say
Owners of both robots praise mapping that settles quickly and pet-hair pickup that keeps floors manageable. iRobot Roomba 105 owners like the organized rows of its LiDAR map, the larger dustbin and quiet running, but warn that battery life can fall short in larger homes and that suction weakens on medium to high pile carpet. Roborock Qrevo S5V owners consistently highlight the strong suction and anti-tangle brushes, the self-emptying dock with automatic mop washing and warm-air drying that cuts weekly maintenance to refilling water, and quieter running, while a vocal minority call the app's mapping and room-editing tools clunky and note that multi-floor use means moving the whole dock.
