iRobot Introduces Roomba Max 875 Combo With AI Object Recognition

Sep 3, 2026
The Roomba Max 875 Combo combines vacuuming and mopping with AI object recognition, carpet detection, and an automated cleaning dock.

iRobot announced in a press release the Roomba Max 875 Combo Robot with AutoWash Dock, a robotic vacuum and mop priced at £1,099. The company listed the device as available from September 2 through its website.

The robot uses SealForce suction with airflow of 20 liters per second and suction pressure of 35,000 Pa. Its mopping system combines heated mist with a self cleaning roller that rotates at 300 rpm and applies 18 newtons of pressure.

PrecisionVision AI can recognize more than 300 types of household objects, while ClearView Pro dual line LiDAR handles navigation. DriLift detects carpets, raises the mop roller, and lowers a protective cover to prevent contact.

The AutoWash Dock cleans the roller with water heated to 80°C, dries it with air at 55°C, dispenses cleaning concentrate, and empties collected dirt into a bag. Users can control the robot through the Roomba Home app or compatible voice assistants.
