Overview
The iRobot Roomba 105 Vac (model Q352020) pairs LiDAR-guided vacuuming with an AutoEmpty Dock that holds up to 75 days of debris in a sealed bag, built for hard-floor homes with pets that want long stretches between manual bin empties.
- AutoEmpty Dock holds up to 75 days of debris
- Bag traps 99% of allergens down to 0.7 microns
- ClearView LiDAR mapping with keep-out zones
- Spot cleaning up to 5 minutes
Who it's for
Good for pet owners on mostly hard flooring who want to stop daily sweeping without paying for a mopping robot. Less suited to homes needing mop coverage too, or anyone whose router setup makes locking to a single 2.4GHz band a chore.
Pros and cons
- Pet hair wraps around the wheels and brush rollers, per multiple owners
- Setup requires joining a 2.4GHz-only network, which some found frustrating
- Small items like throw rugs and loose cords need clearing before a run
Performance notes
The 3-stage cleaning system pairs stronger suction with a multi-surface brush and an edge-sweeping brush, guided by ClearView LiDAR mapping that steers around obstacles and stairs. Cleaning can be scheduled and targeted by room, with adjustable pass counts and suction levels, plus a 5-minute spot-clean mode for one especially dirty patch.
