iRobot Roomba 981 has a width of 351mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly 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 room
Roidmi EVA, at 390mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba 981 with a difference of 39mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing 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 an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home. Roidmi EVA, at 100mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba 981 with a difference of 8mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, ensure 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. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba 981's battery power is 3,000mAh
Roidmi EVA, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba 981 by
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large home or if you prefer 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 be recharged.
iRobot Roomba 981's operating time is 2h
The Roidmi EVA, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 981 by 1h
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. Roidmi EVA, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 981 by 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 is ready for its next cleaning cycle. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when specific conditions occur. iRobot Roomba 981 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
