Data from the official iRobot and Roborock sites.
2026 verdict
A battery rated for 242 minutes against 175 puts the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow ahead of the iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock as the stronger robot vacuum.
It also carries the higher owner rating of the two. The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock answers with a lower price and broader radio support, adding 5 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth where the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow lists 2.4 GHz only. Both vacuum and mop in one pass, lift the mop on carpet and dock to empty, wash and dry themselves, so the daily routine looks similar on paper. Owner reviews diverge sharply, though: the Combo 10 Max's camera navigation needs the lights on and its own listing carries recurring stalled-job complaints, while the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow's roller mop and LiDAR mapping draw steadier praise. Choose the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow for runtime and reliability; the iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock only if its lower price or wider radio support decide it.

- your router setup needs 5 GHz or the robot to pair over Bluetooth

What owners say

Beyond that they diverge. iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock owners describe a strong first few weeks that too often turns into stalled jobs, a camera that needs the lights on to navigate and a mop that wet-wipes rather than scrubs, though the ones it does not fail for praise its Apple HomeKit and Matter reach. Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow owners instead talk about a roller mop that keeps rinsing itself clean through a run, LiDAR mapping that holds up daily without rescues, and strong pet hair pickup, while flagging that it will not hug baseboards or under-cabinet kicks and that a minority see streaking on hardwood.
