Roomba Combo 10 Max

I was thinking this too, getting rid of my iRobot 10 combo max.. is the price now $1095 to stay? Also, is this because v2 is coming soon? I see a lot of the ai coming to this model is “coming soon.”?

I have the Roomba Combo 10, and honestly, it's been a huge disappointment. It feels like an unfinished product — definitely not something I’d expect from iRobot, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

We also have a roomba max 10 as well and we really like the cleaning and mopping performance.

I know everyone 💩's on this Roomba, and when I found it for $450 on Ebay I thought I scored, but was super scared to use it. But for real, it blows my J7+ (+ Braava) out of the water. It vacuums and mops at the same time, doesn't need to redock and charge its battery, and has the power to drive over a gap with tile into our kitchen (Braava could never) and vacuum/mop that area. It picked up so much pet hair on its first pass (despite the J7 having ran that week) that it got clogged docking (the only time that has happened ever) because there was just so much. As much as I read about everyone having issues with this model, it's been my best robot vacuum ever. Just wanted to post something against the grain.

And their products suck. I bought both the vacuum and mop during Covid. The mop always had much better programming. Now it gets about 1’ from the dock and spins in circles until it crashes into the dock and bunch then times out. It might work after trying 5-8 times. And even then it does a shit job

It clogged docking because it was moist from the mopping it was doing at the same time. Some users started doing dry vacuuming and mopping on the slowest suction because the brushes and ducting getting dirty with wet dirt. It's so sad irobot won't allow mop-only run.

Yeah it’s pretty dire. You’d think after 5 years of development it would do a better job but all it has is extra suck (pun intended) compared to my i7+ and m6 pair - it constantly gets stuck going from tile to rugs regardless of pile level, will bounce off objects and get itself in a tizzy mapping a mile long corridor outside my house (Mark Z. Danielewski would be proud!), and has never ever shown me an object avoidance image to review. The side brush doesn’t spin properly. It slips on its own slippery mopped surfaces and gets confused mopping the same 1 sqft for 90 mins before just running out of battery, or tells me it’s stuck (in the middle of an empty room). The only saving grace is that compared to an i7+ and m6 it doesn’t take up two robots to do the one job. I can’t imagine the new ones are any better. LIDAR isn’t going to fix mechanical issues.
