This vac is a fine product. It cleans properly as advertised. It is fairly quiet and efficient. Simple to maintain.
I will purchase another machine for our Florida winter place.
Would recommend this product to everyone interested.

I have a Roomba 960, an S9+, J9+ and I finally got this 705. I have had them for a few years now, apart from J9+ which I got a year ago. I have always been very happy with the ease of maintenance, iRobots customer support and the easy modular design and ease of repair, which is an anomaly in today’s consumer electronics and appliances.
The 705 with the addition of Lidar maps the whole house much faster, it also doesn’t “bump” into stuff anymore, just steers away or turns around before running into anything. Cleaning performance seems better or at least on par with S9+ which was kinda unparalleled in carpet cleaning. I am glad iRobot launched a new model with their dual rollers.
It is also significantly quieter, and the build quality is the same as before, which is great.
It is a bit taller due to the LiDAR turret, so it couldn’t squeeze itself under my TV cabinet, and the app needs a bit more refining since it’s a brand new app. But the ease with which it signed in with my existing iRobot (classic) app and quickly set up the new robot is great.

So far, I’m very impressed! Being a toddler dad who juggles work, errands, and general chaos, I honestly wished I would’ve purchased sooner.
Setup was quick and easy out of the box. I had it connected to wi-fi and mapping the house within minutes. The app is straightforward and simple to use and helps keep you updated if anything needs changed or replaced.
The most pleasant surprise was how thoroughly it cleans. Crumbs and dirt that I normally find myself sweeping on a daily basis are no longer problems. It even cleans in harder to reach areas like under tables, furniture, and into corners. The strong suction power even takes care of crumbs that get pushed deeper into my area rug.
Battery life is great, and the noise isn’t so bad that we can’t watch TV while it does its thing – but I normally like to have it run while we’re gone during the day.
If you’re on the fence, take my advice. This one is worth it!

First the model itself is sturdy and definitely sleek. Setup was extremely easy. Once charged it mapped our home within 15 minutes with the best accuracy/navigation I’ve seen in my previous robpts and then separating, merging rooms, splitting areas and renaming the areas was a breeze because the app is very user friendly.
I ran it on the smart cycle for it’s first cleaning run and it cleaned my entire first floor efficiently. Some rooms have carpet and others are hardwood, carpeted areas had neat clean lines and living in a beachy area the hardwood floors passed the barefoot test after it had done its cycle.
Very pleased with ease of setup, efficiency and overall cleaning ability. It’s great that it came with 2 evac bags and 2 filters.

Worth every penny! I was on the fence about buying a new vacuum when I have 3 other regular push vacuums, but I was really intrigued with the hands-free robot aspect; being able to automate vacuuming while doing other things so I took the plunge. So happy I did.
The unit arrived earlier than expected and in great condition. As soon as you open the box you see the quick start guide for easy set up. However, I was slightly disappointed that a user manual was not included in the box with the other paperwork, but it was easily found & downloaded. After you get into the app & set up the vacuum you have direct access to the owner’s manual at your fingertips. I, personally, would’ve preferred a printed version in the box but access to it was super easy so no issue, just a preference.
The vacuum and app easily connected to our Wi-Fi. The app walked through the remaining set up steps. Room mapping was easy & automatic. Love that you can set exclusion zones, rename sections/rooms to your liking, set high traffic areas for extra cleaning and set automations for scheduled cleaning. I can make sure to schedule around family activities, work conference calls, etc. The unit transitioned easily from hardwood to carpet. The unit varied suction with my different types of floors/cleaning needs whether area rug vs carpet vs hardwood. The lidar was really impressive at avoiding obstacles. (I even purposefully put some in its way to see what it would do & it skillfully avoided them). I was pleasantly surprised at the furniture it could go under rather than avoid. It did a really great job. Takes multi-tasking to a whole new level. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!

Sometimes Claiming on a small object and cables (see photo). For big objects the LiDAR is very effective.
Sometimes Base suction issue (see photo).
I called customer support and asked to open a case to implement a feature to detect wheel sleep. They didn’t take the improvement idea seriously. They were polite but their objective was just to close quickly
