A vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space. Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g.
the iRobot Roomba i7 having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. The Roidmi EVA also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation involves how the robot vacuum moves around the space. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't.
iRobot Roomba i7 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's way, this allwos it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Roidmi EVA has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and the iRobot Roomba i7 is one of them.
These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Roidmi EVA also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in spaces where there are locations that you want to keep off-limits to the robot vacuum. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba i7 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands.
Roidmi EVA can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will need an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with your robot vacuum. iRobot Roomba i7 is compatible with Google Assistant, allowing you to control it using voice commands through Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app found on smartphones and tablets. Roidmi EVA is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum.
iRobot Roomba i7 has 3 cleaning modes, the cleaning modes supported by robot vacuum cleaners can vary widely depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum. The Roidmi EVA, having only 4

Robot vacuum manufacturers offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to different cleaning floors. The iRobot Roomba i7 has a period of 1 year, warranty periods for robot vacuums typically range from 1 - 2 years, however some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods.
The Roidmi EVA, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of iRobot Roomba i7. When considering a robot vacuum cleaner, it's important to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The iRobot Roomba i7's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it can be emptied.
The Roidmi EVA, at 0.7L
has more capacity than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 0.2L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should be based on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied. iRobot Roomba i7 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged thus performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied.
Roidmi EVA also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to indicate that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it reduces the need for constant monitoring. The iRobot Roomba i7 weighs 3kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. Roidmi EVA, at 3.6kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 0.6kg.
It's advisable to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba i7 has a width of 338mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is 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 space
Roidmi EVA, at 390mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 52mm. 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 of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home. The Roidmi EVA, at 100mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 8mm.
When choosing 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's battery power is 1,800mAh
The Roidmi EVA, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 by
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large room or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent 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 charge before it needs to be recharged. iRobot Roomba i7's operating time is 1.25h
Roidmi EVA, 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 2h, 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 Roidmi EVA, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 2h. 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. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed an operation or when specific conditions occur.
iRobot Roomba i7 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Roidmi EVA supports this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a key addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning operations. 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.
