measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i7+ by 13.3mm. 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.
Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7+'s battery power is 3,300mAh
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at mAh2,600
has less battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7+ by only
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large home or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba i7+ refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba i7+'s operating time is 1.25h
The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7+ with a difference of 0.75h
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 Tikom G8000 Pro, at 5h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7+ with a difference of 2h. 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 availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. Self-emptying robot vacuum cleaners like the iRobot Roomba i7+, are advanced robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. Also, Tikom G8000 Pro 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.
