A vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space. Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, for example the iRobot Roomba j7 having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not.
The iRobot Roomba 621 also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. 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 j7 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's route, allowing it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions.
Also, the iRobot Roomba 621 has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its surroundings, making it possible 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 found on many robot vacuum cleaners and the iRobot Roomba j7 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.

weighs more than the iRobot Roomba j7 by 0.9kg. It's advisable to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when choosing a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba j7 has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
iRobot Roomba 621, at 340mm
has the same width as that of iRobot Roomba j7.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba j7's height measures 90mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home.
The iRobot Roomba 621, at 92mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba j7 by 2mm. 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 operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged.
iRobot Roomba j7's operating time is 1.4h
The iRobot Roomba 621, at 1.5h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of 0.1h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba j7 has a charge time of 6h, 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 iRobot Roomba 621, at 3h
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba j7 by only 3h.
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 begins its next cleaning cycle. Auto-off is a feature designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when specific conditions occur. iRobot Roomba j7 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
Also, iRobot Roomba 621 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 j7 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. You may want to consider buying either the iRobot Roomba 621 or iRobot Roomba j7 If you value the ability to automatically adjust the cleaning modes of the robot vacuum based on the level of dirt and debris in your room.
Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba j7, are advanced robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. iRobot Roomba j7 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
