Irobot Roomba Combo 10 Max

The AutoWash Dock automatically empties the robot's debris bin into an enclosed bag, refills the water tank with fresh water and washes the mop pad after each cleaning cycle. The dock also runs a self-cleaning cycle to keep itself hygienic. You'll need to replace the debris bags when full (typically every 2-3 months), refill the clean water reservoir and empty the dirty water tank periodically. The system is designed to minimise hands-on maintenance whilst keeping everything clean and ready for the next cleaning session.

No, the Auto-Retract Mopping System prevents any carpet damage by automatically lifting the mop pad to the top of the robot when it detects carpet. The Dry Rug Intelligence (D.R.I.) technology ensures carpets remain completely dry whilst still receiving thorough vacuuming. This seamless transition between hard floors and carpets happens automatically without any user intervention, making it safe for mixed-floor homes.

SmartScrub provides 2x deeper cleaning compared to standard vacuum and mop mode by scrubbing back and forth with consistent pressure. The system applies the right amount of pressure to tackle stubborn stains, spills and ground-in dirt effectively. Whilst it won't replace deep manual scrubbing for heavily soiled areas, it handles daily maintenance cleaning excellently and is particularly effective on pawprints, kitchen spills and bathroom tiles.

The robot is designed for carpet, wood and tile surfaces. It automatically adjusts suction power and cleaning methods based on floor type detection. Hard floors receive both vacuuming and mopping, whilst carpets get powerful vacuuming with the mop pad safely retracted. The edge-sweeping brush and dual rubber brushes work effectively on all surface types, with the rubber brushes being particularly good at preventing pet hair tangles.

The robot creates a complete home map 7x faster than previous iRobot mapping technology, typically completing initial mapping after just one cleaning run. The advanced navigation system uses detection sensors and camera technology to accurately map rooms, furniture placement and obstacles. The system learns and improves over time, becoming more efficient at navigation and cleaning patterns with each use.

The advanced navigation system uses detection sensors and camera technology to recognise and avoid obstacles like stairs, cords and pet bowls. If the robot does get stuck, it will attempt to free itself and can send notifications to your smartphone. The system learns from these encounters to avoid similar situations in future cleaning cycles. The robot can navigate under and around furniture effectively whilst maintaining safe clearances.

The mop pad is automatically washed and dried after each complete cleaning cycle. Additionally, you can set the robot to wash its mop pad after cleaning specific rooms, such as bathrooms, to prevent spreading messes around your home. The washing and drying process takes several hours but happens automatically without user intervention. Fresh, clean mop pads ensure optimal cleaning performance for every session.

The robot works with Amazon Echo, Google Home and smartphones through the iRobot Home App. The app provides personalised cleaning suggestions, favourite routines and detailed cleaning reports. You can schedule cleanings, set no-go zones and monitor cleaning progress remotely. The iRobot OS learns your habits and floor plan over time, providing increasingly customised cleaning recommendations and automated routines.
