The iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo is the more affordable dual-band machine: LiDAR, an extending roller mop, AutoWash that empties, heat-washes and dries, Matter and Apple Home already YES, but only about 75 minutes of runtime and 13000Pa. Both mop, wash, dry, lift, and self-empty. Pick the iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo if 5 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and live Matter/HomeKit matter more than endurance; pick the Roborock Qrevo Edge S5A if you want the longer run and the stronger suction.
