iRobot Roomba 105 Cordless Vacuum Q312020 5.8" Cleaning Path Black

A: Hello Ann, The Roomba 105 can get under a couch if there is at least 10.4 cm (4.1 inches) of clearance, which is its height. If your couch is lower than this, the Roomba will likely get stuck or avoid the area, and you may need to raise the furniture or use a virtual wall to block access to that space.

A: Roombas use built-in infrared cliff sensors on their bottom edges to detect drop-offs and stop before falling down stairs.

A: Hello Terry, Yes, the Roomba 105 can be used on carpets for vacuuming, but it automatically avoids carpets when the mopping pad is attached in combo or mop-only modes

A: Hello Caline, Yes, Roomba works perfectly in Europe. If you are bringing a unit from North America, you will need a physical plug adapter and, for many older models, a voltage converter. However, to avoid voiding your warranty and to get the correct 220V–240V power cord, it is highly recommended to purchase one locally from iRobot Europe or major retailers.

A: Hello Terry, Yes, the Roomba 105 (available as the Vac or Combo model) empties its trash automatically, provided it is purchased with or placed on the AutoEmpty™ dock

A: Hello Emma, The robot you are looking at is a vacuum model only. Our robots that both vacuuim and mop have a "Combo" infront of the robot model e.g. 505 Combo.

A: Hello, An internet connection is not needed to operate the robot as it can be simply used with the "Clean" button on the robot and it will create an internal map of the enviorement and initiate cleaning missions. However, you would be missing on a lot of features from the iRobot Home app.

A: Yes, the iRobot Roomba 105 Vacuum and Mop can pick up cat litter and pet hair from floors. It features strong, power-lifting suction and an edge-sweeping brush to effectively handle small particles like litter, making it a suitable choice for managing daily litter tracking around the home.

A: Hello TC, no the 105 is not compatible with older clean base versions.

A: The Roomba 105 is a highly capable option for laminate flooring, featuring LiDAR navigation to map and vacuum safely. It is explicitly listed as suitable for laminate, as well as tile and parquet.
