It's important to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when getting a model, especially 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 it can effectively clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
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, shortening the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba 698's height measures 92mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom to its highest point. Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 78.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 13.3mm.
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 operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. 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. The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 698 by 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 begins its next cleaning cycle.
