iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has a width of 339mm, aslo known 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 important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a space
iRobot Roomba s9+, at 311mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus by 28mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's height measures 92mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home.
iRobot Roomba s9+, at 89mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of 3mm. 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 battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge.
It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's battery power is 3,300mAh
The iRobot Roomba s9+, at mAh3,300
has the same battery power as the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's operating time is 1.25h
iRobot Roomba s9+, at 1h
spends less time than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of only 0.25h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
iRobot Roomba i7 Plus 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 i7 Plus has a dirt sensor, these are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. You may want to consider buying either the iRobot Roomba s9+ or iRobot Roomba i7 Plus If you value the ability to automatically adjust the cleaning modes of the robot vacuum based on the level of dirt and debris in your space.
Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus, are advanced robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. Also, iRobot Roomba s9+ is self-emptying, have it in mind that self-emptying robot vacuums tend to be on the higher end of the price spectrum due to this advanced feature. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet.
Both the iRobot Roomba s9+ and iRobot Roomba i7 Plus have mobile application support, this enhances your experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities. This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is intended to eliminate the likelihood of the robot vacuum getting trapped while cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models.
Both the iRobot Roomba s9+ and iRobot Roomba i7 Plus have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further eliminate the chances of becoming stuck during cleaning. 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 during cleaning.
