Full review
For buyers who don't need mopping, the 105 Vac + AutoEmpty keeps the Combo's headline feature — a 75-day self-emptying dock with an allergen-trapping bag — while dropping the mop pad and water system entirely. ClearView LiDAR handles mapping and stair-drop avoidance, and the app supports scheduled cleaning, exclusion zones and targeted spot cleaning.
At 200 minutes of stated battery life it has the longest runtime figure of any iRobot model in this comparison, useful for larger single-level homes covered in one cleaning cycle.
Pros
- 75-day self-empty dock at a lower price than the mopping Combo version
- Longest stated battery life among the iRobot models here (200 min)
- ClearView LiDAR mapping with exclusion zones
- 1-year limited warranty
Cons
- No mopping function
- No Pa suction figure published by iRobot
- No multi-floor map storage mentioned
Ideal for: Someone who wants iRobot's self-emptying dock and mapping but has no interest in mopping.
