We put the iRobot Roomba 105 through the same tests as our other robot vacuums and are sharing our findings for anyone who's interested. This expands our database and allows you to directly compare products to help with a buying decision. We've opted to focus on more recent products, so we don't plan on writing a full review at this time.

If you have any questions about this robot vacuum, please let us know in the comments.
