iRobot Roomba 105 — Features
Meet the new Roomba 105 — a compact, intelligent robot cleaner that vacuums, mops, or does both at once. With advanced LiDAR navigation, strong suction, and smart carpet detection, this little powerhouse handles all your floor-cleaning needs while you focus on what matters most.
Why Choose Roomba 105?
-
Dual-function vacuum & mop — clean dry dust and wet spills in one pass

-
Carpet-safe mopping — automatically avoids rugs and soft surfaces while mopping
-
Custom cleaning options — choose vacuum-only, mop-only, or combo mode
-
Adjustable suction & water flow — select from multiple levels based on need
-
Compact, low-profile design — fits under furniture for thorough cleaning
-
Reliable mounting & battery system — designed for daily use and longevity
Key Features & Capabilities
1. Vacuum, Mop, or Both
You decide how Roomba should clean. For dusty days, use vacuum only. For spills or wet messes, switch to mop mode. Want maximum cleaning? Use combo mode — it vacuums and wets the floor in one pass. While mopping, it intelligently detects rug edges and stays dry where needed.
2. Powerful Suction + 3-Stage Cleaning
Roomba 105 boasts intense suction power that lifts dust, debris, pet hair, and micro particles. A triad of cleaning elements — a multi-surface bristle brush, edge-sweeping brush, and mop pad — work together to tackle dirt across surfaces.
3. LiDAR-Based Smart Mapping
ClearView LiDAR scans your space to build an accurate floor map, enabling the robot to traverse in neat rows rather than random zig-zags. This mapping helps Roomba move efficiently, avoid obstacles, and remember room layouts for future runs.
4. Custom Cleaning Preferences
Through the companion app, you can adjust how Roomba cleans:
-
Select which rooms to focus on
-
Choose how many passes over high-traffic areas
-
Set suction strength
-
Control water output for mopping
-
Define no-go zones that Roomba will avoid
5. Automatic Carpet Detection
When in combo or mop-only mode, Roomba senses when it’s approaching a rug or carpet and pulls back to avoid wetting it. That ensures floors stay dry and surfaces protected.
6. Reliable, Durable Design
With a low profile and durable build, Roomba can slide under sofas, beds, and cabinets. Its robust circuitry, sensors, and navigation hardware are engineered for long-term use in real-world homes.

How It Works — Easy Setup & Use
-
Unbox and charge — Place Roomba in its charging dock and power on.
-
Install the app — Use your smartphone to connect to Roomba over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and set up home mapping.
-
Configure rooms and zones — Let Roomba scan and map your home, then label rooms or set virtual barriers.
-
Choose your cleaning mode — Vacuum, mop, or both — set suction and water intensity.
-
Schedule or run on demand — Start a clean with one tap or use the schedule feature for daily cleaning.
-
Maintenance — Empty the dustbin, rinse the mop pad, wipe sensors, and replace filters periodically.
Once set up, Roomba runs autonomously — you don’t need to babysit it.
Ideal Use Cases
-
Hard floors & tiled homes — vacuum and mop without switching machines
-
Homes with area rugs — mopping won’t touch carpeted areas
-
Families, pet owners — frequent cleaning of hair, dust, debris
-
Small apartments or multi-room homes — mapping and navigation adapt dynamically
-
Busy lifestyles — schedule cleaning automatically and forget about daily sweeping
Strengths & Considerations
Strengths:
-
Offers vacuum + mop in one compact unit
-
Smart navigation gives consistent coverage and fewer missed spots
-
Carpet detection prevents accidental wetting
-
Customizable cleaning parameters for different rooms
-
Low profile design accesses hard-to-reach areas
-
Durable components built for ongoing use
Considerations:
-
Mopping only works on hard floors — carpets must be avoided when wet
-
Performance depends on proper mapping and obstacle placement
-
App and Wi-Fi require a stable 2.4 GHz network
-
Using cheaper or incompatible cleaning solutions may affect mop performance
-
Maintenance (bin cleaning, pad rinsing, filter replacement) is needed for best results
