- Is the Roomba 505 Combo good on carpet?
- It handles low-pile carpet and rugs, but 7 kPa is modest. On deep-pile carpet expect less pickup than premium robots with stronger suction.
- Does it really mop?
- Yes, it has a mopping mode for hard floors. It is a basic drag-and-wipe mop, not a scrubbing or self-lifting system, so it suits maintenance cleaning.
- How often do I empty it?
- The self-emptying base holds weeks of debris for most homes, though the small onboard bin means it relies on the base. Empty the base bag when the app prompts you.
- Does it work with voice assistants?
- It supports Google Assistant, so you can start, stop and check status by voice. Alexa support is not listed.
- What comes in the box?
- The robot, its charging and self-emptying station, a mop pad, and a starter dust bag. Check the listing for spare pads and bags.
- Will it fit under my furniture?
- At 4.2 inches tall it clears most sofa and bed frames. Measure low gaps first, since the self-emptying base needs clearance around it.
