iRobot Roomba i7 Plus 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 a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, 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, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus'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 obstacles with low clearance in your home. The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, at 97mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of 5mm. When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure 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 run on a single charge. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7 Plus's battery power is 3,300mAh
Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus with a difference of
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large space or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles 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 Plus's operating time is 1.25h
The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus 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 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 S7 MaxV Ultra, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus 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 is ready for its next cleaning cycle. iRobot Roomba i7 Plus has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba i7 Plus, are modern robot vacuum models that have a convenient feature to empty their dustbins automatically.
Also, Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra 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 Plus supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet.
