Customer Ratings & Reviews

TL;DR: SET UP: It was a bit of a process and longer than expected to get it running - downloading the app, charging the unit, updating the software, and eventually setting up custom rooms. USE: Very easy through the app. USABILITY: Very easy and automated through the app. OVERALL: The iRobot - Roomba 105 is great and makes life that much easier! REVIEW: It took some time to set up…actually a lot longer than expected. We immediately put the Roomba 105 on the charger, which needs a set amount of space to dock and function. Then we downloaded the app, which was quick, but it said we had an active account, which we didn’t have. It took some time to override that and sign in. Once signed in, we added the requested and required information. It then said we needed to update the robot’s software…which took around an hour (longer than expected with fast internet - so a bit odd). The next step was to have it map out the rooms, which it did very well, but missed one of the hallways, which was easy to add. The editing of the rooms could be easier, but once figured out, was super easy. 
Now for the test run and our real thoughts…iRobot - Roomba 105 Combo Vac Robot Vacuum & Mop + Auto Empty Dock is now officially named Rosie (like the robot on the Jeston’s). She does her stuff and does it well. We have 2 big dogs, and she vacuums up all their hair phenomenally well. If you add the mopping pad and some tap water, she will also mop the floors. She does her stuff in a grid pattern and does it well…surprisingly well. You can choose to have her run in all rooms or a custom set. For now, we are enjoying interacting with her and have her doing the high-traffic areas daily and the entire downstairs as we choose. The house has definitely had less dog hair and dust. Rosie is amazing! Also…just an FYI, but it took our German Shepherd and Pitbull Mix about 10 seconds to realize Rosie is not a threat and she is one of the family members.

Great helper around home, definitely worth the purchase. Only minus is that occasionally (say, once every 15-20 longer cleaning rounds) runs out of battery while cleaning and needs to be carried manually back to charging station. However, most of the times still automatically returns to charging station if needed. During about 50 cleaning rounds also lost the location couple of times and again needed to be carried manually back to charging station.

The Roomba was extremely easy to unbox and put together. The inner box top had simple instructions. It also included a QR code to “set up your Roomba account”, which I found out had been hacked. (See picture) When you scan it, it takes you to a website that looks legitimate for setting up your Roomba account so you can start the mapping process. Instead, after filling out my information, it takes you to a gaming website loop that charges you $50. I didn’t agree to anything on the website and just closed it out but it still charged my account and I had to get a new bank card. Alternately, I went on my apps and found the Roomba app and was able to proceed. The mapping program is simple once I found the right site. I kept thinking it would fall down the staircase but it didn’t. It’s a great little machine and cleans well, just remember not to leave any charging cords, etc. on the floor because it will tangle them up and start beeping an alarm. I would definitely recommend it, I have wood floors and it has been amazing.

We call our robot Rosie, and she does an excellent job cleaning around our house. We have 4 cats and 2 dogs, and Rosie does great picking up animal hair and scoping out the room for any other odds and ends. We had a much older robot, and the newer style is so much quieter while being more efficient.

The roomba 105 combo vac is amazing. It cleans entire floors thoroughly and does a great job. The bin is especially useful given sometimes a cycle takes more than 2-3 trips to the dump. Does a great job of scanning the floor creating a plan and executes is well. Only quirks being wires. This product will find a way to get tangled with wires on the floor it can also try to pull in hard on them causing displacement or pulling down objects. Other feature I would like is control over the path it takes to prevent it getting tangled with known obstacles. It’s an awesome Purchase nevertheless.

This vacuum has been a great help during my pregnancy, making floor cleaning much easier and taking one more task off my plate. It performs well on both hardwood floors and low-pile carpets, which suits my home perfectly. The mopping function is also a great addition and does a nice job. I'm still learning how to use all of its features, but overall, it's been a reliable tool. However, I'm giving it four stars because the vacuum tends to get stuck frequently—either on edges of the carpet or due to parts coming loose underneath—which prevents it from completing its cleaning cycle at times. With some improvements in navigation or design, it would be nearly perfect.

Installation was easy , it mapped out the house surprisingly well. I like the way it cleans rooms making sure it covers the entire area. The only disappointment is the mopping feature, i was kind of expecting this already it seems like it just wets the mop slightly and glides through the floors

I like the help of robot vacuuming, but charge isn’t sufficient for my needs and charging could’ve been speedier

Is quiet and very effective we all love it. Give us a lots of free time and keeps me from getting back pain.

This thing is great, cleans my tile floors in the condo really well - cleans up my bunny mess and collects all the pet fur and mops well - you can add floor cleaner into it and it smells good. takes a while like few hours, to clean 2000 sq ft but its awesome and fun to watch. dust bin is great and makes emptying not messy and not gross.

The Vacuum is satisfactory. The mopping not really that is why i took 1 star off. It will not remove hard stains on floor. It navigates the room accurately, make sure though that you remove obstacles when you map the room. Overall it does what I intended it for which is to vacuum. I rather mop the floor myself because I am nitpicky about that.

Stylish, simple and effective vacuum with mopping capabilities as well.

I was skeptical about how useful a Rumba could be, but it makes a world of difference because of how much my dog sheds.

It has work very well for me. Having wood floors and carpet I was a little skeptic but it has Lidar and getting a deal on it was worth the try and it had been good.

I was looking for a robot vacuum that actually works, but wouldn't break the bank. My friend suggested the iRobot Roomba 105 Combo (Model Y354020), and after using it for a bit, I've got the lowdown for ya! What I'm Loving: 1. Packs a Punch! This thing has serious suction – 7,000 Pa! They say it's 70x stronger than old Roombas, and it really cleans my hard floors and low-pile carpets. It grabs most pet hair, crumbs, and litter, making daily cleanups a breeze. 2. Smart Navigator: It uses ClearView™ LiDAR to map your home in neat rows, even in the dark. No more random bumping! Plus, it's smart enough to avoid mopping your rugs. 3. Vacuums AND Light Mop: It does both! The mop is great for quick swipes and light spills, though it's not a deep cleaner. There's even a 'SmartScrub' mode for a little extra effort. 4. AutoEmpty Dock is Gold: This dock automatically sucks the dirt out of the robot's bin into a sealed bag that holds up to 75 days of debris. Less dust, less hassle for me! 5. Easy Setup: Setting it up with the Roomba Home app was super simple. And it works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri for voice commands. What Could Be Better: 1. Mop is Basic: Don't expect miracles. It's for light spills, not sticky messes, and can sometimes just smear things around. 2. AutoEmpty Isn't Flawless: Sometimes, it doesn't fully empty the bin, so I still have to do it manually now and then. 3. Bumps Around: It uses bumper sensors, so you need to pick up cords, socks, and small items before it runs. 4. App Can Be Glitchy: The app can be slow, and updates sometimes get stuck, forcing a reset. I often just hit the button on the robot. 5. Battery for Smaller Spaces: Battery life is 90-120 minutes. Fine for most, but big homes might need a mid-clean recharge. My Takeaway: The Roomba Y354020 is a solid vacuum with smart mapping and the AutoEmpty dock, all at a good price. It's great for daily vacuuming, busy homes with pets/allergies, and mixed floors where a light mop helps. Worth it? Yes! If you want a low-maintenance vacuum with smart navigation and less bin emptying. Just know the mop is light-duty, clear your floors, and be ready for occasional app quirks. I'm happy with mine!

Awesome product we had a older version of Roomba and this newer version is awesome specially with the vacuum station plus the dust mops in the front of the Roomba clean excellent the whole house we love it

Seems to get stuck on simple objects, and what I've noticed we do not get a notification when the water is empty during a mopping operation. Vaccumming seems to be good however! One thing to note, had difficulty connecting it to our Alexa with the new app compared to older models!

Very easy to use out of the box. Once you've mapped your home it's easy to automate tasks for the vac to do. Perfect for daily maintenance. We've got a pet and it saves time not having to hand vac every couple hours.

This has been an awesome little robot so far. The mop feature actually works, and works better than our dedicated older model mop. My wife likes this thing more than me...

This vacuum has delivered. I have used it weekly since purchasing and it does a great job at cleaning, especially hard floors.
