Overall Score 4.9
The iRobot Roomba 770 is a top-performing robot vacuum that excels in navigation, pickup, and ease of use navigating well around furniture and beds, using infrared virtual walls to contain it within the set space.
It uses the Dirt Detect Series 2 system that uses infrared and acoustic sensors to find dirt, its shock-absorbing bumper and obstacle detection ensures minimal damage to furniture. Like the other 700 series, the Roomba 770 finds a hard time working on high-pile carpets but works well on doormats and low-pile carpets.
iRobot Roomba 770 can clean all floor types, this feature comes in handy, since different rooms within your home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is said to be as being able to clean all types of floors, this implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to clean a wide range of flooring materials without much limitations.
iRobot Roomba 770 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's way, allowing it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. The iRobot Roomba 770 has 3 cleaning modes, the cleaning modes supported by robot vacuums varies depending on the design of the robot vacuum. The iRobot Roomba 770 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, but some higher-end models may give longer warranties.
The iRobot Roomba 770's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it can be emptied. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance. The iRobot Roomba 770 can adjust its height to match this demand, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to allow for effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to make sure the brushes make good contact.
iRobot Roomba 770 weighs 3.8kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. iRobot Roomba 770 has a width of 353mm, 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 space iRobot Roomba 770's height measures 91mm, here you are looking at the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba 770's operating time is 2h iRobot Roomba 770 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 operating power consumption of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home. iRobot Roomba 770 has a power consumption of 30W, power is typically measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. iRobot Roomba 770 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle.
This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is intended to reduce the chance of the robot vacuum becoming stuck during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba 770 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature varies among different models. These virtual barriers are typically set up and managed via the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are designed to help you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go while cleaning.
Auto-docking is a feature that indicates the vacuum's ability to autonomously return to its docking station when predetermined conditions are met such as done with cleaning, battery running low, or any malfunction. Modern robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba 770 come having an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is intended to prevent the robot vacuum from falling off stairs, ledges, or other elevated surfaces, ensuring its safety while cleaning.
iRobot Roomba 770 has this convenient feature, which enables you to set specific days or times of day for the robot vacuum to automatically start cleaning your home. iRobot Roomba 770 has a remote control, allowing you to manually control the vacuum's movements and actions from a distance.
