iRobot Roomba s9+ cleans all floor types, this feature is essential, as different rooms inside your home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is stated able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the vacuum is capable to clean a wide range of flooring materials without any significant issues.
Tikom G8000 Pro can also clean all floor types, this means that it too is built to be adaptable, giving best cleaning results on either hard floors or carpets commonly found in homes. A robot vacuum's ability to create a 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 keeping out of those that are not. The Tikom G8000 Pro 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 move 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 and avoid collisions. Also, the Tikom G8000 Pro 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 and avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
The iRobot Roomba s9+'s dustbin capacity is at 0.4L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it can be emptied. Tikom G8000 Pro, at 0.6L
has more capacity than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 0.2L
The dustbin capacity varies widely among robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should be based 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 requirement, for example, it may raise itself slightly when moving to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Tikom G8000 Pro with sophiscated 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 Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2.8kg
is lighter than the iRobot Roomba s9+ with a difference of 0.9kg. It's important to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when choosing a model, and that's 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, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum can effectively clean in one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a room
Tikom G8000 Pro, at 325mm
measures more in width than the iRobot Roomba s9+ with a difference of 14mm. 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 measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home. The Tikom G8000 Pro, at 78.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by 10.3mm. When choosing 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 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
Tikom G8000 Pro, at mAh2,600
has less battery power than the iRobot Roomba s9+ by only
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete operations without frequent 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 Tikom G8000 Pro, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba s9+ with a difference of 1h
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, these are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the iRobot Roomba s9+, are advanced robot vacuum models that have a convenient feature to empty their dustbins automatically.
Also, Tikom G8000 Pro 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 Tikom G8000 Pro and iRobot Roomba s9+ have mobile application support, this enhances your 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 stuck during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba s9+ are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting trapped, but the effectiveness of this feature varies among different models. Both the Tikom G8000 Pro 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.
Virtual barriers are set up and controlled through the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are setup to enable you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go while cleaning. Both iRobot Roomba s9+ and Tikom G8000 Pro support virtual barriers, this ability to set virtual barriers is mostly useful for spaces with areas where the robot vacuum may become stuck. iRobot Roomba s9+ has a route mapping feature that enables it to create a map of your space and plan efficient cleaning routes.
This mapping capability enhances the vacuum's ability to work effectively and systematically. Route mapping is an important feature as it enables robot vacuums such as the Tikom G8000 Pro to adapt to the layout of your home to clean more efficiently and minimize the possibility of missing certain spots. Voice prompts refer to notifications that the vacuum states to give you alerts on the different states of the vacuum.
iRobot Roomba s9+ supports this feature
Tikom G8000 Pro also supports voice prompts, this feature is useful for you who like audible notifications or users who have visual impairments. Auto-docking is a feature that refers to the vacuum's ability to return to its docking station when certain conditions are met such as done with cleaning, battery running low, or any malfunction. Both Tikom G8000 Pro and iRobot Roomba s9+ support this feature, considered a convenient feature because it ensures that the robot vacuum maintains its charge and readiness for cleaning with little or no 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, thus its safety during operation. This safety feature that is also available on the Tikom G8000 Pro is essential in preventing accidents and protecting the robot vacuum from damage.
It gives you peace of mind knowing that the vacuum will not fall off a ledge during its cleaning cycle.
