iRobot Roomba i7+ has a width of 339mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively clean in a single pass. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Roborock S7 MaxV, at 390mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba i7+ by 51mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba i7+'s height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom to its highest point. Height is a key consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home. The Roborock S7 MaxV, at 100mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7+ with a difference of 8mm.
When selecting 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7+'s battery power is 3,300mAh
Roborock S7 MaxV, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7+ by
A bigger capacity implies 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 the iRobot Roomba i7+ 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 i7+'s operating time is 1.25h
Roborock S7 MaxV, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7+ 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+ 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 S7 MaxV, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7+ 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 begins its next cleaning cycle. iRobot Roomba i7+ has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle.
Self-emptying robot vacuum cleaners like the iRobot Roomba i7+, are modern robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. Also, Roborock S7 MaxV is self-emptying, it's important to note that self-emptying robot vacuums tend to be on the higher end of the price spectrum due to this advanced feature. iRobot Roomba i7+ supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
