Roborock S6 cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms within your home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum is stated able to clean all types of floors, this implies that the vacuum is capable to clean a wide range of flooring materials without much significant issues.
iRobot Roomba 621 can also clean all floor types, meaning it is built to be adaptable, giving best cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. Roborock S6 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's path, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the iRobot Roomba 621 has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its surroundings, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and Roborock S6 supports this feature. These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up to prevent the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Roborock S6 are built to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands.
Roborock S6 is compatible with Google Assistant, enabling you to control it using voice commands via Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app found on smartphones and tablets. The Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, however some higher-end brands may give longer warranty periods. iRobot Roomba 621, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S6.
When thinking of buying a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, as well as any limitations or exclusions that may apply. Roborock S6's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied. The iRobot Roomba 621, at 0.5L
has the same dustbin capacity as the Roborock S6
The dustbin capacity varies widely among different 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 Roborock S6 adjusts 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 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 iRobot Roomba 621 with sophiscated sensor technology and adaptability.
This feature is essential for maintaining cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles. Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and carrying around. iRobot Roomba 621, at 4.3kg
weighs more than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 0.7kg.
It's important to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Roborock S6 has a width of 350mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to 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
The iRobot Roomba 621, at 340mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S6 by 10mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room.
Roborock S6's height measures 97mm, here you are considering 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. iRobot Roomba 621, at 92mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 5mm.
When selecting 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 run on a single charge. It is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
iRobot Roomba 621, at mAh4,500
has less battery power than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large space or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of the Roborock S6 refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. Roborock S6's operating time is 3h
The iRobot Roomba 621, at 1.5h
spends less time than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only 1.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. The operating power consumption of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home.
Roborock S6 has a power consumption of 58W, power is typically measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. The iRobot Roomba 621, at 33W
consumes less power than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 25W. Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, but it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets.
That's right, most modern robot vacuum cleaners can mop floors in addition to vacuuming. Such robot vacuums are often referred to as robot vacuum and mop models and Roborock S6 is one of those robot vacuums
Roborock S6 has a dirt sensor, these are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. You may want to consider buying either the iRobot Roomba 621 or Roborock S6 If you value the ability to automatically adjust the cleaning modes of the robot vacuum based on the level of dirt and debris in your home.
Roborock S6 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet. This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is designed to eliminate the likelihood of the robot vacuum getting trapped during cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the Roborock S6 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, but the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models.
Both the iRobot Roomba 621 and Roborock S6 have the "anti-stuck" feature, but clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums helps to further eliminate the chances of becoming stuck during cleaning. Virtual barriers are typically set up and controlled via 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 while cleaning. Roborock S6 has a route mapping feature that enables it to create a map of your home 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 iRobot Roomba 621 to adapt to the layout of your space to work more efficiently and reduce the risk of missing certain spots. Voice prompts are notifications that the vacuum states to give you alerts on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 has this feature
Most robot vacuum cleaners such as Roborock S6 come having an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is designed to prevent the robot vacuum from falling off stairs, ledges, or other elevated surfaces, hence its safety while cleaning. This safety feature that is also available on the iRobot Roomba 621 is key in preventing accidents and keeping the robot vacuum from damage.
It gives you peace of mind by ensuring that the vacuum will not fall off a ledge during its cleaning cycle.
