"At just 9.5-inches in diameter, the new Roomba Mini is half the size of iRobot's entry-level 105 series robovacs that launched last March, allowing the vacuum to access and clean spaces that are too narrow for larger robots."
"Despite its smaller size, the Roomba Mini still features a LiDAR-based navigation system to avoid obstacles like people, furniture, and rugs, depending what mode it's in. It can be used as a robot vacuum, sucking up dust and dirt on hard floors and carpets using a spinning brush on the underside."
"The robot is compatible with iRobot's Roomba Home app that can be used to schedule cleaning routines, but you can also activate it by voice using separate Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant-enabled smart devices. If you want to skip online connectivity altogether or don't have access to Wi-Fi, the Roomba Mini can be manually started with a button press."
iRobot has introduced the Roomba Mini, its first product following bankruptcy and acquisition by China's Picea Robotics. This compact 9.5-inch robovac is half the size of iRobot's entry-level models, enabling access to narrow spaces. Originally developed for Japanese homes, it now launches in the UK at £379 and Europe at €399, with US availability through TikTok Shop planned for summer. The Mini features LiDAR-based navigation, dual functionality as vacuum and mop, voice control compatibility with Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant, and a compact dock with three-month dust capacity. Users can schedule cleanings via the Roomba Home app or operate manually without connectivity.
