What the differences mean

Suction power

30,000 Pa against 22,000 Pa: the iRobot Roomba Max 775 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock pulls harder on embedded debris and pet hair, while the Roborock Saros 10R leans on its brushes and repeated passes instead of pure airflow.

Body and thresholds

The Roborock Saros 10R is only 79.8 mm tall and uses a riser chassis to climb high thresholds, so it cleans under low sofas and beds and follows you between rooms. The iRobot Roomba Max 775 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock stands 105 mm tall, which keeps it out of the lowest gaps.

Brush tangling

The Roborock Saros 10R's zero-tangling split brushes are a highlight for pet and long-hair homes, a detail its owners single out again and again. iRobot does not market the Roomba Max 775 Combo's brush as anti-tangle.

Recharge time

The Roborock Saros 10R refills its battery in about 2.5 hours, while the iRobot Roomba Max 775 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock takes about 6 hours, so a large home gets back to work sooner on the Roborock after a pause.

Published figures

Roborock publishes a 65 dB noise level, a 270 ml onboard bin, a 2.7 L dock bin and a 4 L water tank for the Saros 10R. iRobot leaves the Roomba Max 775 Combo's noise, tank and bin figures unpublished, which makes it the harder machine to size up on paper.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of the Roborock Saros 10R describe it as a set-and-forget machine that cleans better than the robots they upgraded from. They single out the solid-state LiDAR navigation, which maps quickly, gets close to furniture legs without scraping them and almost never gets stuck, and the slim body with a riser chassis that climbs tall thresholds and slips under low furniture. Many praise the zero-tangling brushes for staying free of long human and pet hair, and the dock that self-empties and washes, dries and refills the mops. The recurring complaints are that no floor cleaning solution is included, that it uses more water than older models, that the balanced mode can miss crumbs on some units, and that the silicone brushes struggle on medium and high-pile rugs.
