iRobot Roomba s9+ can clean all floor types, this comes in handy, as different rooms within a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum cleaner is advertised able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the vacuum is capable to effectively clean most flooring materials without any significant issues.
Roborock S7 Max Ultra can also clean all floor types, meaning it is designed to be adaptable, providing best cleaning performance on either hard floors or carpets found in most homes. The vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for several purposes, e.g. the iRobot Roomba s9+ having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. Roborock S7 Max Ultra also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation involves 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 areas to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't. iRobot Roomba s9+ has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's path, this allwos it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Roborock S7 Max Ultra has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its surroundings, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
iRobot Roomba s9+'s dustbin capacity is at 0.4L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it requires to be emptied. The Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at 0.4L
has the same dustbin capacity as the iRobot Roomba s9+
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should depend on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance.
The iRobot Roomba s9+ can adjust its height to match this demand, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to make sure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Roborock S7 Max Ultra with better sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for keeping up cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles.
The iRobot Roomba s9+ weighs 3.7kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and carrying around. The Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at 4.8kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba s9+ with a difference of 1.1kg. It's important to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba s9+ has a width of 311mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can properly clean in a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at 350mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 39mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba s9+'s height measures 89mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at 96.5mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 7.5mm. When selecting a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can go 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 operate on a single charge. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba s9+'s battery power is 3,300mAh
The Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large home or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete operations with less interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba s9+ refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged.
iRobot Roomba s9+'s operating time is 1h
The Roborock S7 Max Ultra, at 3h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 2h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba s9+ has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the room 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 s9+, are advanced robot vacuum models that have a convenient feature to empty their dustbins automatically.
Also, Roborock S7 Max Ultra is self-emptying, have it in mind that self-emptying robot vacuums tend to be on the higher end of the price spectrum due to this advanced feature. iRobot Roomba s9+ supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet. Both the Roborock S7 Max Ultra and iRobot Roomba s9+ have mobile application support, mobile apps enhance your experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities.
This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is designed to reduce the likelihood of the robot vacuum getting trapped during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba s9+ are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature varies among different models. Both the Roborock S7 Max Ultra and iRobot Roomba s9+ have the "anti-stuck" feature, but clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further reduce the chances of getting stuck while cleaning.
These virtual barriers are typically set up and managed through the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are setup to help you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go during cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba s9+ and Roborock S7 Max Ultra support virtual barriers, this ability to set virtual barriers is especially useful for spaces having areas where the robot vacuum may encounter obstacles. iRobot Roomba s9+ has a route mapping feature that enables it to generate a map of your space and plan efficient cleaning routes.
This mapping capability improves the vacuum's ability to work effectively and systematically. Route mapping is a valuable feature as it makes it possible for robot vacuums such as the Roborock S7 Max Ultra to adapt to the layout of your space to clean more efficiently and minimize the possibility of missing certain spots. Voice prompts refer to audible messages that the vacuum states to provide you information on the different states of the vacuum.
iRobot Roomba s9+ supports this feature
The Roborock S7 Max Ultra also supports voice prompts, this feature can be useful for you who like audible notifications or users who have visual impairments. Auto-docking is a feature that indicates the vacuum's ability to autonomously return to its docking station when certain conditions are met such as getting work done, battery running low, or any malfunction. Both Roborock S7 Max Ultra and iRobot Roomba s9+ support this feature, considered a convenient feature because it makes sure that the robot vacuum maintains its charge and readiness for cleaning without requiring manual intervention.
Modern robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba s9+ come having an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is intended to prevent the robot vacuum from falling off stairs, ledges, or other elevated surfaces, hence its safety during operation. This safety feature that is also available on the Roborock S7 Max Ultra is essential in mitigating accidents and keeping the robot vacuum from damage.
It gives you peace of mind knowing that the vacuum will not fall down a flight of stairs during its cleaning cycle.
