MOVA

iRobot
Up to three
All robot vacuums. Every figure below is placed against the whole class, so a gap can be read against how much the class itself varies.
The conditions each robot was assessed against, side by side. Rows marked in gold are where these machines genuinely differ.
| Condition | MOVA P70 Pro Ultra | Roomba Plus 575 Combo |
|---|---|---|
| Home size | ||
| Under 1,500 sqft | GoodCapable but overkill for compact homes; suction power exceeds what small-space cleaning typically demands. | GoodCompact 11.93 x 3.29 x 11.73 in chassis and LiDAR mapping comfortably cover a smaller single-level home in one scheduled run. |
| 1,500 – 3,000they differ | GoodOptimal range for multi-floor homes. Single-charge coverage handles 2-3 floor layouts with dock docking between floors. | DependsiRobot has not published runtime or recharge-and-resume specs for this SKU; mid-size single-level coverage is not independently confirmed. |
| Over 3,000 | Depends120-minute runtime may require multiple charging cycles on open-plan estates over 3500 sqft; two-dock setup not currently supported. | DependsNo documented runtime or multi-session resume exists for this SKU; large single-level coverage above 3,000 sqft is unconfirmed. |
| Primary floors | ||
| Hard floors | Good30000Pa suction and heated-mop dock designed for sealed hard floors. Manufacturer specs and owner reports show strong edge and seam cleanup. | Good25,000 Pa suction and LiDAR-mapped navigation are well suited to consistent hard-floor debris pickup and coverage. |
| Low / medium pile | GoodLow-pile carpet cleaned effectively at full suction. No documented power loss or carpet-specific failures in owner forums. | Good25,000 Pa suction handles standard low-pile carpet pickup, and mop pads auto-lift about 10mm on carpet detection. |
| High pile / shagthey differ | PoorOwner reports document 40-50% suction loss and pad clogging on high-pile and shag carpets; motor thermal strain increases. | Depends25,000 Pa is iRobot's compact-tier suction, below its higher-suction combos; thick high-pile pickup is not independently documented. |
| Mopping needs | ||
| Vacuum only | GoodStrong vacuum; the mop lifts or detaches when not needed. | GoodStrong vacuum; the mop lifts or detaches when not needed. |
| Light mopping | GoodActive mopping system covers routine floors easily. | GoodActive mopping system covers routine floors easily. |
| Frequent mopping | GoodPressure or rotating mop with self-wash is built for frequent mopping. | GoodPressure or rotating mop with self-wash is built for frequent mopping. |
| You want to… | ||
| Empty bin myself | GoodMonthly consumable swaps and quarterly dock cleaning required. Not suitable for owners avoiding any weekly/monthly labor. | GoodAutoWash Dock automation is optional for hands-on owners; manual bin emptying and pad rinsing remain available if preferred. |
| Empty occasionally | GoodDock auto-empties and pads air-dry. Owner effort ~75 min/month for pad rinses, bag swaps, and filter maintenance. | GoodDock automation covers dustbin emptying and mop-pad wash and dry cycles; owners still handle periodic detergent and water refills. |
| Set-and-forget | DependsAuto-empty and heated pad-dry lower labor compared to cold-mop platforms, but consumable cadence and dock descaling prevent true hands-off operation. | DependsiRobot documents months of hands-off maintenance, but the dock's water reservoir and detergent supply still need periodic manual refills. |
A robot being poor for a condition is a fact about fit, not a fault. “Depends” means the record names a limit worth reading, not that the answer is unknown.
Nine inputs across three pillars, each weighted as shown and each scored so more is better. A robot can lead on one and trail on another, which is the point of showing them apart.
A number only means something next to the spread it sits in. Each track is the real range across every classified robot in the class, with the median marked.
Not compared, because fewer than two of these robots carry a published figure: Runtime, Charge time, Noise.
Written on each record, and the only thing here every robot on the site carries.
What each design gives up to be good at what it is good at.
The heated-mop dock adds convenience but commits owners to consumable cost. Pad replacements and hot-water mineral deposits drive estimated $120-160 annually beyond vacuum-only consumables.
The top suction setting carries an undocumented noise cost. MOVA publishes no decibel figure for the P70 Pro Ultra at any power level and no independent measurement exists, so the difference between running at 30000Pa and running quieter cannot be stated.
Compact footprint, compact suction: the 46% smaller chassis that fits under beds and sofas runs 25,000 Pa, below iRobot’s higher-suction combo tiers.
Runtime and weight go undocumented because iRobot has not published them, even though suction, dock temperatures and mop mechanics are all fully specified.
Seven weeks old: no independent reliability record exists yet.
Stated by the record itself. A robot being wrong for a household is a fact about fit, not a fault.
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.
Classifications rest on different depths of evidence. A pre-release assessment and a verified one are not the same kind of claim.

Evidence status counts the sources behind a classification, not their kind. A high count can be maker documentation and price coverage, so read it as how much was reviewed rather than as independent testing. How we weigh evidence.
