Roomba-Maker Iobot added four newly used lidar Robot Vacuum Models in its 2025 lineup, bringing premium features to a more reasonable price. They include Roomba 205 Dustcompactor, the “First's First” Robovac equipped with a compacting bin, which mechanically compresses dust and lips to save space in the dock. Imagine it like garbage garbage cans in a garbage truck.
“The Consumer's net benefit will get you 60 hands-free maintenance days without the need for a separate auto-packed auto,” Warren Fernandez, Director of Iobot's product management director said.
Roomba 205 can be vacuum and mop.
Fernandez told CNET that this feature, exclusively in Roomba 205, was targeting people who could hide their Robovac under their sofa-meaning they didn't want a big dock in their homes-and avoid what some described as the “jet engine noise” of an automatic port. The noise of the compacting bin does not “raise itself above the noise made by the robot vacuum.”
The new lineup has an entry level, midtier and premium robot vacuums. But just because you choose for a cheaper model, that doesn't mean you will lose the best features.
Standards are now premium features
The Roomba 2025 lineup was developed based on an 18-month-old consumer study throughout North America, Europe, Japan, Asia-Pacific and Latin America.
“Our portfolio approach to '25 is really to enhance the Roomba family with a series of new consumer feedback -based products, which is 18 months of research, and carefully consider how to improve every aspect of the product experience,” Fernandez said.
The 2025 base and midtier models are getting new features with the previous ones reserved for higher Iobot vacuum ends. These features include Clearview Lidar Navigation, before the Iobot product lineup, which will allow Robovacs to better navigate homes and prevent barriers, even in dark rooms.
Roomba 105 is low profile enough to slip under a couch and other low furniture.
Fernandez said Lidar is a “real changing game, especially for users who are probably using an old robot who can work with older technology.”
“This notion of a robot kind of bump in and running at all, that would be a thing of the past,” he said. “This thing will accurately see all kinds of obstacles throughout your home, avoiding them all.”
New vacuums have an increase in absorption of absorption of 7,000 pascals. Iobot said they had 70 times more power lifting than the Roomba 600 series.
SmartScrub is another feature that was exclusively exclusive to the highest Robovac end of Iobot but is now coming to the 2025 combo lineup. Enable it to target hard stains, which the robot cleanses by “mimicking the movement that a person can do as you are kind of scrubbing something back -back,” Fernandez said.
Incision — Separate the new lineup of Iobot Roomba
Roomba is taking a page out of Smartphone Playbook by introducing entry-level, midtier and premium models. Here's what to look like in the 2025 lineup:
Roomba 105 can face the edges with rotating brushes.
Entry-level: Roomba 105 and Roomba 205
Roomba 105 came into two models: the 105 vacuum-only model for $ 299 or the 105 combo combination of vacuum and Mop Model for $ 319. You can get either an autoempty dock for an additional $ 150. AutoEmpty Dock allows for an estimated 75 days of vacuuming before it needs to be exploded.
The Roomba 205 Dustcompactor is available as a vacuum only (dustcompactor vac) for $ 449 or as a combo model for $ 469 (Dustcompactor Combo). Side Note: The contents of the dustbin do not resemble a hut – Fernandez says the empty experience will be more traditional, just like what you used to have if you had a robot vacuum.
These entry-level combination models can see carpets but are limited to their autonomy when it comes to cleaning them. Fernandez recommends that the pad pads have been removed most of the time to allow them to focus on vacuuming, simply adding them back for mop jobs.
“If you leave the mopping pad attached, it will only clean the hard floor surfaces in your home,” he said.
Roomba 205 has cover capabilities and it can be MMOP, but you want to manu -manu -We are changing mopping pads.
Midtier: Roomba Plus 405 and Roomba Plus 505
This tier has a stronger masculinity, with a twenty twist of pads that autonomously raise 10 millimeters to the ground when carpets are detected. The docks are autonomously washed and dry mop pads.
Roomba Plus 405 combo robot + Autowash Dock is available for $ 799. Roomba Plus 505 combo robot + Autowash Dock, at $ 999, offers additional improvements to 405. First, the mop pad extends to the edge, allowing improved edge cleaning and corners. The dock also dry the pads with heat.
Finally, and most notably, Roomba 505 will have the front facing AI camera accuracy for better navigation and obstacle discovery. “It's a best of the same equation of the world,” Fernandez said. “The 505 combo is taking all the benefits of Clearview Pro Lidar and all the benefits and knowing our front AI camera technology, which combines them to give you a hand best-class mapping, navigation, not just to discover barriers, but understanding object.”
A quick Remember to shit: While Fernandez says that all 2025 lineups should identify and avoid pet waste (the company is widely trained robots with fake shit of various shapes and sizes), he recommends Roomba 505 to those who remember that the pet owned a stronger navigation and object recognition.
Roomba 505 is better at avoiding accidental mmopping of your carpet.
Premium: Roomba Combo 10 Max
The Roomba Combo 10 Max Robot + Autowash DockLaunched in August last year, will maintain its place as Iroobot's premium offer. It costs $ 1,400, but is available currently for sale by Iobot's website for $ 900. The variation of its factor was the auto-retract mopping system, which raised the mop pad to the top of the robot when the carpets were noticed, as well as a dock autonomy cleaning both the robot and itself.

The new Roomba app aims to keep things simple
In conjunction with its new lineup, Iobot will also introduce the Roomba Home App (join the existing IROBOT HOME APP) aimed at simplifying the action of cleaning people's homes.
“We don't want you to get into our app, look at a big, good picture of a robot and have to click on two or three sub menu to do something,” Fernandez said. “Let's be true: You open the app to clean your house, so let's jump right into your house.”
The new app, which only supports new products, will introduce a confecigure home screen. The top third is dedicated to cleaning tasks either formed by the user or Iobot proposed. Fernandez said you should only have one of them, and your robot will be able to work.

The bottom of the two-thirds of the screen will feature a map of your home, which Fernandez says “can actually act.” For example, he said that if he threw some granola to the office from the kitchen, he would quickly order his robot to conduct a “direct clean room” where the mess was.
The new app is better to let you know what your robot is doing so far, where it is and how much development has been done with the current cleaning task. Finally, the app will provide proactive maintenance and arrangement, reminding you to replace and order filters, check the lip bag or clean the brushes.
“We give the user a chance to decide when they want to do that kind of restraint,” Fernandez said.
The new app is available to download on iOS and Android. The 2025 Roomba lineup is available throughout North America and selects markets in Europe starting March 18.

The future of Iobot
Iobot's 2025 lineup- “The largest and most comprehensive lineup in the company's 35-year history,” according to a press release-has arrived at a critical time for the Roomba manufacturer.
While the latest financial results Released in November showed increased year-on-year earnings and decreased operating losses, the company laid out the road —the employees Last year after a planned acquisition of Amazon fell. While it was used to dominate the Robovac market, Iobot faced Increased competition from rivals such as Sharkninja and Chinese companies, including Roborock. Chinese rival 3i will also introduce a Robovac combo with a mechanical compression dustbin, the G10 Pluswhich it shows in CES. It does not specify pricing or a release date.
“Our ongoing adjustment has begun to change the way we change, developing and developing our robots, which are centered on improving our performance and developing long -term shareholder value,” Iobot CEO Gary Cohen told the latest results of the company's financial discharge. “As we move forward with this new chapter in the history of Iobot, one thing is richly clear: we have a powerful brand that will serve as a foundation for the rolling of this company.”
