Automatic Maintenance Robot Vacuums

The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max Offers Matter Support and More

— July 24, 2024 — Tech
The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max is the brand's latest robotic vacuum and mopping cleaner that's engineered with a truly hands-off cleaning experience in mind.

The vacuum is engineered with a retractable mopping system that will automatically elevate when cleaning carpets, while the Auto Wash Dock will clean and dry the mop heads. The dock will also refill the water tank and empty the dust bin with enough space to support 60 days of emptying before requiring the user to perform maintenance. The mop refill reservoir will provide up to seven days of refill.

The iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max is also engineered with Matter support to enable intuitive integration of the system into any existing smart home ecosystem. The system is available now for preorder for $1,399.99.
