iRobot Roomba s9+ cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, as different rooms inside your 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 designed and equipped to effectively clean a wide range of flooring materials without any significant issues.
Roborock S7 MaxV Plus can also clean all floor types, meaning it is built to be adaptable, providing effective cleaning performance on either hard floors or carpets commonly found in homes. The vacuum's ability to generate a digital map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the desired space.
This 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 without accessing those that are not. The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus 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 areas to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't. iRobot Roomba s9+ has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's route, allowing it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Roborock S7 MaxV Plus has this 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 thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
iRobot Roomba s9+'s dustbin capacity is at 0.4L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, debris, and pet hair the vacuum can hold before it needs to be emptied. The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, at 0.4L
has the same dustbin capacity as the iRobot Roomba s9+
The dustbin capacity varies widely among robot vacuum models, and the capcity 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 allow for 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 MaxV Plus with advanced sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for keeping up cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles.
iRobot Roomba s9+ weighs 3.7kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and carrying around. The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, at 4.7kg
weighs more than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 1kg. It's important to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba s9+ has a width of 311mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can effectively clean in a single pass.
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 S7 MaxV Plus, 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, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba s9+'s height measures 89mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, at 97mm
measures more in height than the iRobot Roomba s9+ with a difference of 8mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge. It is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba s9+'s battery power is 3,300mAh
The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, at mAh5,200
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large home or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with less interruptions to recharge. 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 return to its charging dock for recharging.
iRobot Roomba s9+'s operating time is 1h
Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, 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 availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. Self-emptying robot vacuum cleaners like the iRobot Roomba s9+, are modern robot vacuum models that have a convenient feature to empty their dustbins automatically.
Also, Roborock S7 MaxV Plus is self-emptying, it's important to note 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 remotely through your smartphone or tablet. Both the Roborock S7 MaxV Plus and iRobot Roomba s9+ have mobile application support, mobile apps enhance the user experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities.
This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is intended to eliminate the likelihood of the robot vacuum becoming trapped during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba s9+ are equipped with various sensors and technologies to navigate around obstacles and avoid getting trapped, however the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models. Both the Roborock S7 MaxV Plus and iRobot Roomba s9+ have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further eliminate the chances of becoming stuck during cleaning.
These virtual barriers are typically set up and controlled via the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are designed to enable you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go while cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba s9+ and Roborock S7 MaxV Plus support virtual barriers, this ability to set virtual barriers is mostly useful for homes with areas where the robot vacuum may become stuck. iRobot Roomba s9+ has a route mapping feature which enables it to generate a map of your home and plan efficient cleaning routes.
This mapping capability improves the vacuum's ability to clean effectively and systematically. Route mapping is an important feature as it makes it possible for robot vacuums such as the Roborock S7 MaxV Plus to adapt to the layout of your space to work more efficiently and reduce the risk of missing certain spots. Voice prompts refer to audible messages that the vacuum states to give you information on the different states of the vacuum.
iRobot Roomba s9+ supports this feature
The Roborock S7 MaxV Plus 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 predetermined conditions are met such as getting work done, battery running low, or any malfunction. Both Roborock S7 MaxV Plus and iRobot Roomba s9+ support this feature, considered a convenient feature because it makes sure that the robot vacuum keeps its charge and readiness for cleaning without requiring manual intervention.
Most robot vacuum cleaners such as iRobot Roomba s9+ come equipped with 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 MaxV Plus is key in preventing 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.
