iRobot Roomba 621 cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, since different rooms inside your home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum cleaner is said to be able to clean all floor types, this means that the vacuum is capable to effectively clean flooring materials without much significant issues.
Roborock Q7 Max can also clean all floor types, this means that it too is designed to be versatile, providing effective cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. The robot vacuum's ability to create a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g. the iRobot Roomba 621 having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. The Roborock Q7 Max also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't. iRobot Roomba 621 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's route, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Roborock Q7 Max has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its surroundings, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
The iRobot Roomba 621 has 3 cleaning modes, the cleaning modes supported by robot vacuums can vary depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum. The Roborock Q7 Max, having only 4

The iRobot Roomba 621's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the vacuum can hold before it can be emptied. Roborock Q7 Max, at 0.5L
has the same dustbin capacity as the iRobot Roomba 621
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should depend on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean.
Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance. The iRobot Roomba 621 can adjust its height to match this requirement, for example, it may raise itself slightly when moving to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Roborock Q7 Max with advanced sensor technology and adaptability.
This feature is essential for keeping up cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles. The iRobot Roomba 621 weighs 4.3kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and portability. Roborock Q7 Max, at 3.8kg

It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when selecting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba 621 has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
The Roborock Q7 Max, at 350mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba 621 by 10mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba 621's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Roborock Q7 Max, at 97mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba 621 by 5mm.
When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba 621's battery power is 4,500mAh
The Roborock Q7 Max, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba 621 by
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete operations without frequent interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba 621's operating time is 1.5h
The Roborock Q7 Max, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 621 with a difference of 1.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba 621 has a charge time of 3h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle.
The Roborock Q7 Max, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 621 by 1h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle. This is the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home.
iRobot Roomba 621 has a power consumption of 33W, power is measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. Roborock Q7 Max, at 58W
consumes more power than the iRobot Roomba 621 by 25W. Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, but it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets.
An overheating indicator in a robot vacuum serves several important purposes, making it a very important safety feature.
