iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock vs Roborock Qrevo QV 35A

Full Robot Vacuums comparison in 2026

Updated November 2026
Data from the official iRobot and Roborock sites.
2026 verdict
The Roborock Qrevo QV 35A keeps the lead through most of this robot vacuum matchup against the iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock.
It adds a much bigger 4-liter water tank against 0.17 liters, a larger onboard dustbin, a stronger owner rating and a slightly longer runtime, 180 minutes against 175. The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max robot + AutoWash dock counters with a much wider integrations list (Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings and Matter alongside Alexa and Google Home), which the Qrevo QV 35A does not match, and it also supports Bluetooth where the Roborock is Wi-Fi only. But the iRobot's camera-based navigation needs the lights on to work, and it has a history of reliability complaints from owners, while the Roborock's LiDAR mapping and 8,000 Pa suction back up its higher rating. Buyers who live inside the Apple or SmartThings ecosystem may still lean toward the Combo 10 Max, but for most homes the Roborock Qrevo QV 35A is the safer, longer-running pick.
