iRobot Roomba i7 Plus cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms within a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is stated as being able to clean all types of floors, this implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean most flooring materials without any limitations.
Roborock Q7 Max can also clean all floor types, meaning it is built to be adaptable, providing effective cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. A vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space.
This can be used for several purposes, e.g. the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. Roborock Q7 Max also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's way, allowing it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Roborock Q7 Max has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its surroundings, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles.

weighs more than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus by 0.4kg. It's important to consider the weight of the vacuum when choosing a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has a width of 339mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can effectively 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
Roborock Q7 Max, at 350mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of 11mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening 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 to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. Roborock Q7 Max, at 97mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of 5mm. 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 important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's battery power is 3,300mAh
Roborock Q7 Max, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of
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 fewer 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 battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging.
iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's operating time is 1.25h
Roborock Q7 Max, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus by 1.75h
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. The Roborock Q7 Max, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of 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 is ready for its next cleaning cycle. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus, are modern robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically.
Also, Roborock Q7 Max 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, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet. Both the Roborock Q7 Max and iRobot Roomba i7 Plus have mobile application support, mobile apps enhance your experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities.
This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is designed to reduce the chance of the robot vacuum getting stuck during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus are equipped with various sensors and technologies to navigate around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, but the effectiveness of this feature varies among different models. Both the Roborock Q7 Max and iRobot Roomba i7 Plus have the "anti-stuck" feature, but clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums helps to further eliminate the chances of getting stuck during cleaning.
Virtual barriers are typically set up and managed via the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are setup to help you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go while cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba i7 Plus and Roborock Q7 Max support virtual barriers, the ability to set virtual barriers is especially useful for homes having areas where the robot vacuum may encounter obstacles. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has a route mapping feature that enables it to create a map of your home and schedule efficient cleaning routes.
