Customers are delighted by the Roomba Plus 505 Combo's impressive cleaning performance, particularly its effective sweeping and mopping capabilities and strong suction. Many appreciate the advanced mapping and object detection features, including the LiDAR navigation system which helps the robot avoid obstacles efficiently. However, some users note that the battery life could be improved, and the noise level can be high, especially during mopping. The ease of setup is also frequently praised.

This is one of the best combo robots! It was easy to set up on the app, and it's been a big help in keeping the house tidy. We have a German Shepherd and 2 cats, and there is no struggle when it comes to picking up their hair or keeping the dirt to a minimum.

Its really loud and the IRobot Classic app is terrible. The Refreshed one is okay but it has next to no settings for the Robot. Coming from a RoboRock S8 Ultra its definitely worse for everything that isnt actually cleaning. It cleans like a beast but its again really loud and the software is bad.

Works - easy to install; clean; good buy. The ROOMBA maps the house and cleans automatically and empties and washes the floors, around the carpets.

This roomba is replacing an older roomba and Braava. The updates to this machine made me think the upgrade would be worth it to me and it has proven to be true! If you’re on the fence I would highly suggest it.

The app is slow, freezes, and crashes. Using their mopping solution and their recommended dosing. It would constantly error due to oversudsing then it begain flooding my floor. I returned it and replaced it with a shark.

The Service at Best Buy was good, the unit 505 plus Roomba has the same problem as the one that I exchanged, grinding noise from the mop mechanism and the new, new unit uses an excessive amount of cleaning fluid.

Ive been an Irobot user for about six years. I wanted a robot that could replace both my vacuum and mop robots. I had been resewrching this model for exactly that. I almost didnt putchase because of all of the negative reviews. Im glad i disnt let tye negative people sway my purchase. This was the best investment ever. I couldnt be happier.
