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

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

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

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.

max 10 combo vs 705 combo
Max 10 Combo kept running over pet mess, getting stuck on a mat, mopped very poorly (left water streaks everywhere), and ultimately stopped docking. It would just sit right in front of the docking station and if I put it back in, it would come out on it's own and sit there until the battery died. I

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

Roomba Combo 705 Max Leaked in full
Imagine if they evolved the s9 series into having a roller and mop. I still think the s9 is “peak” roomba and had A LOT of potential. I remember in 2019 when my mom got the s9 and m6 combo, they looked so sleek and the performance on carpet was insane. Then they “downgraded” back to the round design

Max 10 vs 505 combo
It’s say it’s better in most aspects but vacuuming wise it might be a bit worse. Mopping is miles ahead and the OS and navigation too. If you’re looking for the best wait for the Max 705 Combo which is should be great at navigation, improved vacuuming (like the 705 Vac and previous Roombas but more

I'm looking to buy 705 Combo, is there anything I need to know?
I just replaced my i7+ & Bravva Jet M6 with the 705 Combo and I have been fairly impressed with it so far. We have all hardwood floors and the vac & mop at the same time has worked out great. The only downside I have found is the new Roomba Home app is horrible compared to the iRobot Classic App it'
