measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 960 by 1mm.
When selecting 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 battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. It is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba 960's battery power is 2,600mAh
Shark AV752, at mAh2,500
has less battery power than the iRobot Roomba 960 with a difference of only
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete operations with less 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 960's operating time is 1.25h
The Shark AV752, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 960 by 0.75h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba 960 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.
Shark AV752, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 960 by 2h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for 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 960 has a power consumption of 30W, power is typically measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
