I don’t feel like the suction is as good as other roombas I have had, but for the price it does a good job.

Great little vac

The Roomba 105 is a great little vacuum cleaner. Suction is better than any other brand I've owned, especially when setting it to deep clean...which decreases battery life substantially. It just takes a longer to get the job done because the vacuum has to go home to recharge. That, of course, depends on the size of your home/apartment. Be aware that on deep clean the bin might fill up sooner and need to be emptied between charges. After using the 105 for a couple of weeks, I would not recommend it if you have pets. I have a Husky and the bin fills up very quickly. I do, however, highly recommend getting the same model, but with the AutoEmpty doc, which is what I should have done.
Schedules are super easy to set up and you can choose to clean the whole house, or just a room or 2. You can also choose what level of cleaning you prefer. It's so nice to come home and know the floor is clean. I haven't used the voice control, but I'm confident it works as advertised.
The Roomba 105 is an excellent vacuum cleaner. It has great suction and is easy to set up and use. Get one!

Unfortunately it does not charge properly. The issue appeared very quickly and the unit has never worked as expected.
I contacted Best Buy support, but they advised that since there is no protection plan, I need to handle everything directly with the manufacturer. While the product is still under warranty, the process has been inconvenient and disappointing for a brand-new device.
I expected a better quality product and more helpful support for something that failed so early. I would not recommend this model based on my experience.

The iRobot - Roomba 105 Robot Vacuum is a solid and simple to use device. It offers 3 levels of cleaning power. It does have an 'Automations' section in the app which allows you to set up schedules for specific zones (or all zones) and choose the level of cleaning. It is easy to set up a schedule and the app pretty much steps you right through doing this in a concise way. I prefer not to use schedules yet. If I had a shedding pet, though, I would take advantage of the scheduling capability. The design for connecting to the charging strips on the base is very effective and this unit never failed to put itself back on the charger without my intervention – tip of the cap to the design engineers at Roomba.
The robot needs you to connect your phone's WiFi using a 2.4 GHz access point for the initial setup. However, after setting up you can put your phone back on 5 GHz if you prefer, and still communicate to the robot to start cleaning. The ability to set the suction power from light to normal to deep cleaning is a great feature. I had not seen 3 cleaning levels on my other robot vacuums. Another tip of the cap to the Roomba engineers. One fact though, is that when using deep-cleaning, the vacuum could not complete my 1200 square foot area in one charge. It would return by itself to the charger and then later allow me to restart cleaning just those areas the map showed still had to be cleaned. Its batteries however, could easily handle my 1200 sq feet on the light or normal cleaning levels.
You can tell it during the initial setup to create a map and I was pleasantly surprised to notice it magically created 4 zones for my cleaning area. These zones allowed me to select one or more (instead of just all) so that I could easily do customized cleaning jobs of just some zones to save time or focus on just some areas instead of the whole house.
This unit has a larger dustbin than my previous robot vacuums. It never got stuck in tight areas as had frequently happened to my other brand robot cleaners.The little whirling brush on the bottom is super-effective at getting dust pulled in, especially from corners.
This is a great price/performance value for a very smart robot cleaner and I do recommend this unit.

I’m so happy with my Roomba 105! I live in a one-story home that’s about 3,000 square feet, and this little vacuum has been a lifesaver. I run it almost every day, and it keeps up with dust, pet hair, and crumbs without any complaints.
Set up was super easy using the app and was cleaning my floors within a few minutes.
The vacuum maps out my whole floor really well and moves in nice straight lines—much better than my old robot vacuum. I love that it goes under furniture and gets into corners I usually miss. I empty it daily but could probably go several days without doing so. It does let you know when the bin is full and needs to be emptied.
The app is easy to use and lets me tell it which rooms to clean. I can even start it from my phone when I’m out of the house. It’s not super loud, and it doesn’t scare the dog, which is a win. My grandkids love to chase it around-built in entertainment!
Overall, it’s made daily cleaning so much easier in a big house. Definitely worth it if you want something reliable and low maintenance.
