What the differences mean
Mopping
The Roborock Qrevo Pro mops with pads that extend past the chassis to reach baseboards and corners, then washes them in hot water and dries them at the dock. The iRobot Roomba Max 705 has no mopping at all, so it is vacuum-only.
Suction
The iRobot Roomba Max 705 is rated at 13000Pa and the Roborock Qrevo Pro at 7000Pa, the one row the iRobot wins. On deep carpet that gap is real, though the Roborock is aimed at maintenance mopping on hard floors rather than pile.
Runtime
The Roborock Qrevo Pro is rated at up to 180 minutes and the iRobot Roomba Max 705 at 120. On a large floor the Roborock finishes more before recharging, and it recharges in about 4 hours.
Platform support
The iRobot Roomba Max 705 works with Alexa, Google Home, Apple Home, SmartThings, Home Assistant and Matter over dual-band Wi-Fi. The Roborock Qrevo Pro is 2.4GHz only and limited to Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant, with no Matter.
Onboard bin
The Roborock Qrevo Pro carries a 330ml onboard bin against 275ml on the iRobot Roomba Max 705. Both empty into their docks, so the onboard bin only changes how often the robot tops itself up mid-run.
Which one to buy if
- you want edges and corners mopped, not just vacuumed
The Roborock Qrevo Pro's FlexiArm mop extends past the chassis to reach baseboards, where the iRobot Roomba Max 705 cannot mop at all.
- you want the longest runtime per charge
The Roborock Qrevo Pro is rated at up to 180 minutes against 120 for the iRobot Roomba Max 705.
- deep carpet suction is your priority
The iRobot Roomba Max 705 is rated at 13000Pa against 7000Pa for the Roborock Qrevo Pro.
- you run Apple Home, SmartThings or Matter
The iRobot Roomba Max 705 supports all of them plus dual-band Wi-Fi, where the Roborock Qrevo Pro stops at Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant.
- you want the lower price of the pair
The Roborock Qrevo Pro costs less than the iRobot Roomba Max 705 while adding mopping and a longer runtime.

What owners say
Owners of both robots want the machine to disappear into the background, and both groups rate mapping and app control highly. iRobot Roomba Max 705 owners praise faster, more accurate LiDAR mapping than their older Roombas, strong pet-hair pickup and quiet runs, with the AutoEmpty dock the reason they stop emptying a bin, though Wi-Fi setup with special-character passwords is the recurring complaint. Roborock Qrevo Pro owners describe setup as quick, the app as the highlight for maps, zones and schedules, and the FlexiArm mop as the feature that finally reaches edges, but the dominant concern is durability: several report LiDAR or brush faults in year two and paid repairs rather than replacements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better overall: iRobot Roomba Max 705 or Roborock Qrevo Pro?
The Roborock Qrevo Pro for most homes, because it vacuums and mops, reaches edges with its extending mop and runs longer for less. The iRobot Roomba Max 705 is the pick for deep carpet suction and universal smart home support.
What is the biggest difference between the iRobot Roomba Max 705 and the Roborock Qrevo Pro?
Mopping. The Roborock Qrevo Pro mops and reaches baseboards with its extending pad, while the iRobot Roomba Max 705 is vacuum-only but rated higher on suction and supports more platforms.
Does the iRobot Roomba Max 705 mop?

Who should buy the Roborock Qrevo Pro?

Buyers who want a dedicated vacuum with higher rated suction, dual-band Wi-Fi and support for every major smart home platform, and who do not need mopping.
