Asked 7 months ago by messy.

Q: QuestionCan this go from a hard floor to a flimsy rug without sucking the rug up

Asked 2 weeks ago by 5655.

• A:Answer Hello, Yes, the Roomba can transition from hard floors to thin or flimsy rugs. It will not "suck" the rug up like an upright vacuum because it uses spinning rubber brushes rather than a standard suction inlet.

Q: QuestionWill it work with 220 voltage?

Asked 6 months ago by Anonymous.

This question was asked about the related product: iRobot - Roomba 705 Vacuum + AutoEmpty Dock - Extreme Power-Lifting Suction, Anti-Tangle Dual Rubber Brushes, Self Empties, LiDAR - Black

• A:Answer Hello, Yes, Roomba 705 models, especially those sold in Europe/UK (like the 705 Max), are designed for 220-240V, but if you have a US-based 705, you'll need a voltage converter/transformer because the dock/base is usually 110V. Additionally, using a robot outside the country it was purchased in will void its warranty.
