iRobot Roomba j7 has a width of 340mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a space
The Roborock Q7 Max Plus, at 353mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba j7 by 13mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba j7's height measures 90mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is a key consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home.
Roborock Q7 Max Plus, at 95mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of 5mm. 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 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
The Roborock Q7 Max Plus, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba j7 by 1.6h
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. Roborock Q7 Max Plus, at 4h
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba j7 with a difference of only 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 begins its next cleaning cycle.
