iRobot Roomba Max 705 with AutoEmpty Dock
Score: 86/100
Ilife A30 Pro
Score: 82/100Rankings
The Roomba Max 705 Vac is a high-end robot vacuum with extreme suction and AI-driven LiDAR navigation, excelling on pet-hair removal and hands-free operation via its AutoEmpty dock. Its main trade-off is limited long-term user data and regional shipping restrictions. Best suited for pet-heavy households that value thorough mapping and long-duration self-emptying.
The ILIFE A30 Pro combines powerful 5000 Pa suction with a 60-day self-emptying station and LiDAR navigation, providing up to 180 minutes of runtime. Its EU-only plug, bulky station, and limited water tank capacity may deter some users. It excels for larger homes needing low-maintenance cleaning.

Professional reviewers commend the A30 Pro for its strong 5000Pa suction, convenient 60-day self-emptying system, effective 2-in-1 roller brush, and precise LiDAR navigation, noting the low-profile chassis fits under furniture. However, they point out the EU-only plug, lack of AI camera avoidance, and a relatively small water tank as drawbacks.
Everyday users appreciate the robot's ability to handle daily messes and pet hair, the ease of app setup, long battery runtime, and the hands-free 60-day dust handling. Recurring concerns include the need for a plug adapter outside Europe, frequent stock shortages, and the bulk of the self-empty station in smaller living spaces.
