iRobot Roomba j7 has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly 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 room
The iRobot Roomba j7 Plus, at 330mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of 10mm.
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 measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home.
iRobot Roomba j7 Plus, at 92mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of 2mm. When selecting 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 operating time of the iRobot Roomba j7 refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging.
iRobot Roomba j7's operating time is 1.4h
iRobot Roomba j7 Plus, at 1.25h
spends less time than the iRobot Roomba j7 by only 0.15h
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 j7 Plus, at 5h
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of only 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 begins its next cleaning cycle. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when certain conditions occur. iRobot Roomba j7 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
