Roomba Combo 705 Max Leaked in full

I’ve said this in a previous 705 Max thread, but this might be the replacement for my S9. A roller mop with Roomba carpet performance is what I’ve been waiting for

So confused by all that is on the market...

Both rotary mop pad Roombas (The 405 and 505) have the autowash dock. In fact, most mopvacs you purchase will, as it is a necessity to stop the mop pads from becoming too dirty too fast. Now, both have pad washing, only the 505 has heated pad drying, so when it finishes washing the mop pads it will

Roborock surprisingly didn’t do well in VacuumWars best vac/mop awards

I have not really much to add here since i have a completely different approach regarding cleaning performance tests. Vacuumwars does mainly some sweeping tests (the only more vacuuming weighted test is their cravis test that they for whatever reason do not attach much value anymore in their rating

Best Roomba for picking up pet hair?

I've had a good experience with the Roomba Max 705 since last year, cleaning the hair of my Golden retriever dog.

Stick with Roomba 705 Max (Vac only) or switch to 4020 Combo?

I have a 705 max, and I had the same thoughts. I have trust issues and I don't want a robot leaking water all over the place. I had a J9 and it was so terrible it wrecked my trust in these things. I bought the 705 max on sale and it is 5000x better. When it comes to a robot running around the house

Vac & Mop OR Vac then Mop??

I have 705 Combo and have been using Vac&Mop for months every day without any problems and I have 2 shedding dogs. I also clean the Roomba once a week.

Roomba 705 max combo doesn't clean very well... Help!

My 705 combo manages all sorts of small bits and dust. Bread crumbs from the slicing machine, dirt from my work boots, croissant crumbs and spilt potting compost are easy tasks on tiled floors. The carpeted areas are just general bits and fluff walked in from the dryer, it has no trouble with these.

People who upgraded J9+ to 705 max - which one do you recommend?

I had the 705. To start with the good: it cleaned great imo. I have a long-haired dog. Doesn't shed, but takes a lot of mud, sand and leaves into the house. Roomba sucked it all up. mopping was good too. It does leave lines/streaks on the floor though (I have PVC flooring), but that doesn't bother m
