Also, the iRobot Roomba 981 has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. The iRobot Roomba 770 has 3 cleaning modes, the number of cleaning modes supported by robot vacuum cleaners can vary depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum.
The iRobot Roomba 981, having only 4
has more modes than the iRobot Roomba 770 by 1
Robot vacuum manufacturers may offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to various cleaning surfaces. iRobot Roomba 770 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 - 2 years, however some higher-end models may give longer warranties. The iRobot Roomba 981, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of iRobot Roomba 770.
When thinking of buying a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, as well as any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The iRobot Roomba 770's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied. iRobot Roomba 981, at 0.5L
has the same dustbin capacity as the iRobot Roomba 770
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the size 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. iRobot Roomba 770 can adjust its height to match this demand, 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. The iRobot Roomba 770 weighs 3.8kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and portability.
The iRobot Roomba 981, at 4kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba 770 with a difference of 0.2kg. It's important to consider the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
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 properly 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
iRobot Roomba 981, at 351mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 770 with a difference of 2mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba 770's height measures 91mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home.
The iRobot Roomba 981, at 92mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba 770 by 1mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, ensure 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 amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged.
iRobot Roomba 770's operating time is 2h
iRobot Roomba 981, at 2h
has the same operating time as the iRobot Roomba 770
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. 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. iRobot Roomba 981, at 3h
has the same charge time as the iRobot Roomba 770.
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. 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 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 designed to reduce the likelihood of the robot vacuum getting stuck during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba 770 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to navigate around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature varies among different models.
Both the iRobot Roomba 981 and iRobot Roomba 770 have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums helps to further eliminate the chances of getting stuck during cleaning. These virtual barriers are set up and controlled through 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 in robot vacuum cleaners that indicates the vacuum's ability to return to its docking station when predetermined conditions are met such as getting work done, battery running low, or any malfunction.
Both iRobot Roomba 981 and iRobot Roomba 770 support this feature, considered a convenient feature because it makes sure that the robot vacuum keeps its charge and readiness for cleaning with little or no manual intervention. Modern robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba 770 come having an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is designed to prevent the robot vacuum from falling off stairs, ledges, or other elevated surfaces, hence its safety while cleaning.
This safety feature that is also available on the iRobot Roomba 981 is essential in avoiding accidents and keeping the robot vacuum from damage. It gives you peace of mind by ensuring that the vacuum will not fall off a ledge during its cleaning cycle. 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.
