It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when selecting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba 698 has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum 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 space
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 325mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 698 by 15mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba 698'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 obstacles with limited clearance in your home. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 78.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 13.3mm.
When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can go under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba 698 refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba 698's operating time is 1.5h
Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
iRobot Roomba 698 has a charge time of 2h, 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. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 3h. 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 feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when certain conditions occur. iRobot Roomba 698 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Tikom G8000 Pro has this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a valuable addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process.
iRobot Roomba 698 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. iRobot Roomba 698 has carpet detection, this enables the vacuum to detect and adjust to all kinds of floor surfaces, specifically recognizing when it transitions from hard floors like tile to carpets. iRobot Roomba 698 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
