Roborock S6 cleans all floor types, this is essential, since different rooms within a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum is said to be able to clean all types of floors, this means that the robot vacuum is capable to clean most flooring materials without much limitations.
iRobot Roomba 621 can also clean all floor types, which implies that it too is built to be adaptable, giving effective cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. Roborock S6 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's way, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the iRobot Roomba 621 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.
No-go zones is a feature of many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Roborock S6 is one of them. These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Roborock S6 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands.
The Roborock S6 is compatible with Google Assistant, enabling you to control it using voice commands through Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app installed on smartphones and tablets. Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 year to 2 years, but some higher-end brands may offer longer warranties. The 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, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The 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. iRobot Roomba 621, at 0.5L
has the same dustbin capacity as the Roborock S6
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. Roborock S6 can adjust its height to match this demand, 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 iRobot Roomba 621 with better 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 commonly 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 advisable to consider the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Roborock S6 has a width of 350mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time 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, reducing the time it takes to clean a room.
Roborock S6's height measures 97mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home. The iRobot Roomba 621, at 92mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 by 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 battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity 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 prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. Roborock S6's operating time is 3h
The iRobot Roomba 621, at 1.5h
spends less time than the Roborock S6 by only 1.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. This is 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 often 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 by 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. These 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 space being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. You may want to consider buying either the iRobot Roomba 621 or Roborock S6 If you prefer 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 chance of the robot vacuum becoming trapped while cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the Roborock S6 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 iRobot Roomba 621 and Roborock S6 have the "anti-stuck" feature, however clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further reduce the chances of becoming stuck during cleaning. These virtual barriers are typically 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. Roborock S6 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 iRobot Roomba 621 to adapt to the layout of your space to clean more efficiently and reduce the risk of missing certain spots. Voice prompts are notifications that the vacuum states to give you information on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 has this feature
Most robot vacuum cleaners such as Roborock S6 come equipped with an "anti-fall" feature. This feature is designed to save 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 iRobot Roomba 621 is essential in mitigating accidents and protecting 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. Roborock S6 has this convenient feature, which enables you to set certain days or times of day for the robot vacuum to automatically start cleaning your space. The scheduling feature in robot vacuums is particularly useful in keeping a consistently clean home without the need for manual intervention.
iRobot Roomba 621 too can be scheduled.
