The vac-only Roomba 105 with AutoEmpty wins iRobot upgraders who want LiDAR row cleaning, bags that last months, and relief from daily sweeping in pet-heavy homes. Auto-empty and app reliability complaints tend to surface after the first six months, and 1,400-plus sq ft layouts may need mid-job recharges.

Loved by buyers
- ✓Setup on 2.4 GHz WiFi takes minutes; LiDAR map of a 1,400 sq ft home is ready in one mapping run
- ✓AutoEmpty blast is brief but loud; dust bags in lighter-traffic zones last two to four months
- ✓Neat-row LiDAR pattern beats random bump bots on open floor plans; owners name their bots and laugh at docking songs
- ✓Multi-pet households report dramatically less daily sweeping once schedules lock in
Buyer concerns
- ✗Homes above 1,400 sq ft may need mid-job dock-and-recharge cycles that stretch cleaning into hours
- ✗Auto-empty can stop triggering months in; support may swap the base or the robot piecemeal rather than replacing the set
- ✗False stuck alerts and phantom full-bin errors send owners hunting for a bot stopped in the middle of an open floor
- ✗Rug edges and chair legs remain trouble spots; virtual walls cost extra and some owners resort to DIY risers and felt tape
