To combo or not to combo?

Have 705 max combo. Love it. Set it up in the app, make sure your mapping run has zero obstacles, move furniture out of the way so it can map correctly, set up your automations to vacuum 3 days a week and mop 2 days a week in the middle of the night then LEAVE IT ALONE. Other than cleaning the robot

I set mine up to return after every routine but after watching it do it's largest routine it still pauses to empty the bin, not that I care as it adds only a few seconds overall.

Roomba 405 or Roomba 505

I already have Roomba 705 Vacuum so I don't want to buy the Max Combo, also the roller brush would be a pain to clean. I think the heated pads are worthwhile though so I will heavily consider the 505.

Roomba selection!

try the Roomba Combo i5+ for vacuuming and mopping, the Roomba j6+ for pet mess and cord detection, or the Roomba Max 705 for strong suction. All have self-emptying bases for easy cleaning.

Is it worth upgrading to 750 max from S9+?

I have a couple S9s and also got the Max 705 last summer. The laser nav is way better than the S9 and previous models and no longer takes a really long time to map. I do find it quieter, unlike other comments here. I run it nightly and after 9+ months, the Max 705 has gotten stuck only a few times w
