Roborock S6 cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, since different rooms inside your home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum cleaner is stated able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the robot vacuum is capable to clean a wide range of flooring materials without any significant issues.
iRobot Roomba 671 can also clean all floor types, meaning it is designed to be adaptable, providing effective cleaning performance on either hard floors or carpets commonly found in homes. Roborock S6 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's path, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. No-go zones is a feature found on many robot vacuum cleaners and the Roborock S6 supports this feature.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up to prevent the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Many modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Roborock S6 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands. 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.
The Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, warranty periods typically range from 1 year to 2 years, however some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods. The iRobot Roomba 671, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S6. When thinking of buying a robot vacuum cleaner, it's important to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, as well as any limitations or exclusions that may apply.
The Roborock S6's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum can hold before it can be emptied. The iRobot Roomba 671, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S6 by only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the capcity 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 Roborock S6 adjusts its height to match this requirement, 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 iRobot Roomba 671 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 Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and carrying around. The iRobot Roomba 671, at 2.3kg
is lighter than the Roborock S6 by 1.3kg. It's advisable to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when getting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Roborock S6 has a width of 350mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can effectively clean in a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a room
The iRobot Roomba 671, at 340mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 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 looking at the measurement from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The iRobot Roomba 671, at 90mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 7mm. When choosing 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), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
The iRobot Roomba 671, at mAh1,800
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 home or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge. The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the 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
iRobot Roomba 671, 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 671, at 33W
consumes less power than the Roborock S6 by 25W. Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, however it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets. True, most modern robot vacuum cleaners have the capability to 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
Both Roborock S6 and iRobot Roomba 671 can mop floors, the mopping function in robot vacuum cleaners is a convenient way to keep up clean and polished hard floors without manual mopping. Roborock S6 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors 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 671 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, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet. Both the iRobot Roomba 671 and Roborock S6 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 chance of the robot vacuum getting stuck while cleaning.
Robot vacuums such as the Roborock S6 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to move around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models. These virtual barriers are typically set up and controlled through the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are designed to help you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go during cleaning. Roborock S6 has a route mapping feature that enables it to create a map of your space and schedule efficient cleaning routes.
This mapping capability enhances 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 671 to adapt to the layout of your space to clean more efficiently and minimize the risk of missing certain spots. Voice prompts are audible messages that the vacuum emits to provide you alerts on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 has this feature
The iRobot Roomba 671 also supports voice prompts, this feature can be useful for you who prefer audible notifications or users who have visual impairments. Modern 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, ensuring its safety while cleaning.
This safety feature that is also available on the iRobot Roomba 671 is essential in mitigating accidents and protecting the robot vacuum from damage.
