iRobot Roomba 105 vs Roborock Saros 10R

Full Robot Vacuums comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official iRobot and Roborock sites.
2026 verdict
The Roborock Saros 10R is the clear pick for anyone weighing these two robot vacuums, offering a self-emptying dock, full auto mop washing and drying, and far broader smart-home integrations, including Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, Home Assistant and Matter, none of which the iRobot Roomba 105 supports. Suction is also far stronger at 22,000Pa against the vacuum-only Roomba 105, and the Saros 10R's ultra-slim 79.8mm body slips under furniture the Roomba cannot reach. Still, the Roomba 105 is not without merit: it actually runs slightly longer per charge (about 200 minutes versus the Saros 10R's 180), stays simpler as a vacuum-only machine, and sits at a far more accessible price tier for buyers who just want mapped LiDAR vacuuming. Anyone who wants a true flagship vacuum-and-mop with hands-off dock maintenance should get the Roborock Saros 10R; those who just want basic mapped vacuuming without mopping should stick with the iRobot Roomba 105.
