iRobot Roomba 981 has a width of 351mm, 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 important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Okp Life K3, at 278mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 981 by 73mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba 981's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home. The Okp Life K3, at 76mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 981 by 16mm. When choosing 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 battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba 981's battery power is 3,000mAh
Okp Life K3, at mAh2,600
has less battery power than the iRobot Roomba 981 by only
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large space or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete operations without frequent interruptions to recharge. 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 return to its charging dock for recharging.
iRobot Roomba 981's operating time is 2h
The Okp Life K3, at 1.7h
spends less time than the iRobot Roomba 981 by only 0.3h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba 981 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 Okp Life K3, at 2h
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba 981 with a difference of only 1h.
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. Auto-off is a feature designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed an operation or when certain conditions occur. iRobot Roomba 981 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
Also, Okp Life K3 supports 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 operations. iRobot Roomba 981 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
