iRobot expands Roomba lineup with five new models

Five new Roombas land, and iRobot unveils its first non robotic floor cleaner.

iRobot’s latest push marks its first major product expansion since the company was acquired by Picea last year, a signal that the new ownership is pushing hard on both robot vacuums and a broader floor cleaning strategy. The five Roomba models cover a spread of capabilities and price points: Roomba Max 775 Combo + AutoWash Dock at $999.99, Roomba Max 715 Vac + AutoEmpty Dock at $699.99, Roomba Plus 575 Combo + AutoWash Dock at $799.99, Roomba Plus 515 Combo + AutoWash Dock at $699.99, and Roomba Plus 415 Combo + AutoWash Dock at $599.99. In addition to the robotic line, iRobot is introducing its first non robotic floor cleaning product, the Roomba Electro Plus 5-in-1 Disinfecting Hard Floor Cleaner.

Across the lineup, all five robots rely on LiDAR based navigation, with the premium Max models and the Plus 575 Combo adding ClearView Pro LiDAR and PrecisionVision AI for obstacle recognition. The company says these features enable the robots to identify and navigate around cords, shoes, toys and even pet waste while building three dimensional maps of the home. That emphasis on smarter sensing is paired with a dock strategy that moves the cleaning experience toward less hands on maintenance: four of the five models include an AutoWash Dock that not only empties the dustbin but also washes mop pads, dries them with heat, and refills the robot’s onboard water tank. The Roomba Max 715 Vac, by contrast, ships with an AutoEmpty Dock for automatic dust collection, underscoring a tiered approach to how much hands-on maintenance a consumer is willing to tolerate.

The Plus line also features a redesigned chassis that iRobot says is 46 percent smaller than prior generations, a change aimed at tucking the robot into tighter spaces and under furniture. The Plus 575 Combo goes a step further by being rated to climb thresholds up to 35 millimeters, expanding its reach into rooms with slightly raised edges. The price ladder mirrors the feature spread: the higher end Max 775 Combo plus AutoWash Dock sits at $999.99, while the midrange Max 715 Vac plus AutoEmpty Dock sits at $699.99. The Plus options offer similar price points with $799.99 for the Plus 575 Combo, $699.99 for the Plus 515 Combo, and $599.99 for the Plus 415 Combo. The headline addition in this wave, the Roomba Electro Plus 5-in-1 Disinfecting Hard Floor Cleaner, signals iRobot’s intent to broaden floor care beyond robot autonomy into a disinfecting hard floor routine.

But the total bill is not just the sticker price. The article lays out MSRPs for five models but does not mention any ongoing subscription costs or services tied to these devices. For a category that increasingly blends cloud features with local cleaning, the absence of a subscription note is notable and worth confirming for buyers who want to avoid recurring charges. In practice, this means the initial outlay covers hardware and the included docking technology, with the possibility of future add-ons or services left unsaid in the rollout.

The catch, if you read between the lines, is that a lot of the value in this upgrade hinges on data and connectivity. LiDAR navigation, AI-driven obstacle recognition and 3D maps imply ongoing data processing and potential data sharing considerations. The article does not detail iRobot’s privacy practices or how map data is stored, used or shared, which means prospective buyers should look closely at privacy settings and terms. There is also a degree of ecosystem lock-in around the AutoWash and AutoEmpty Docks; while they reduce maintenance, relying on these docks can complicate switching away from iRobot’s accessory ecosystem down the line.

Still, for families who want a more capable robot that can patrol under couches with a slimmer chassis and a mop-capable option, the new lineup presents a coherent upgrade path. If you value hands-off maintenance and smarter navigation, these five models offer a clear gradient of capability and cost, capped by iRobot’s new disinfecting floor cleaner that rounds out a broader approach to keeping floors clean across both robot and non-robot routines.
