What the differences mean

Mopping

The MOVA E40 Ultra mops with an extendable pad that reaches up to 4 cm into corners, and its station washes the pads and dries them with hot air. The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock is vacuum-only with no mop, tank or detergent.

Suction

The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock is rated at 30,000 Pa and the MOVA E40 Ultra at 19,000 Pa. The Roomba is the stronger dry vacuum, though owners say the MOVA needs its turbo mode for tougher debris.

Battery

The MOVA E40 Ultra is rated at 260 minutes and the iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock at 120, so the MOVA finishes a large home with far fewer returns to the dock.

Warranty

The MOVA E40 Ultra carries a three year warranty against one on the iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock.

Platforms

The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock supports Matter, so Apple Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant work, and it connects on 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz Wi-Fi. The MOVA E40 Ultra reaches Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant and is 2.4 GHz only.

What owners say

Owners of the MOVA E40 Ultra describe an easy start: the robot maps an average home in about fifteen minutes and begins work, and several run it while reading or working because it is quiet. Multi-dog households praise the pet-hair pickup, and the station's habit of returning to wash its pads, empty the bin and refill mid-job is what convinces owners it is worth the money, with support replacing units without argument for some. The complaints are consistent: mop pads that fall off during a run and defeat a scheduled clean, side-brush and motor failures reported within months, slow escalation for some buyers, and suction that needs turbo mode to be convincing on tougher debris.
