iRobot Roomba i7+ has a width of 339mm, 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 space
The 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, reducing 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 an important consideration, especially if you have furniture 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 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. It 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 space 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 be recharged. iRobot Roomba i7+'s operating time is 1.25h
Roborock S7 MaxV, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7+ with a difference of 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+ with a difference of 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. iRobot Roomba i7+ has a dirt sensor, these are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation.
