iRobot Roomba i3 has a width of 337mm, 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 important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
The Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid, at 320mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of 17mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba i3's height measures 92mm, here you are looking at the measure 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.
Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid, at 85mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i3 by 7mm. 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 measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i3's battery power is 1,800mAh
Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid, at mAh2,600
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large home 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 time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba i3's operating time is 1.25h
Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid, at 1.5h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of 0.25h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
iRobot Roomba i3 has a charge time of 5h, 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 Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid, at 6h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i3 by 1h. 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 begins 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 i3 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Eufy RoboVac G20 Hybrid supports this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a key addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process.
Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba i3, are modern robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. iRobot Roomba i3 supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet.
