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 requires to be emptied. The iRobot Roomba 676, at 0.35L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S6 by only 0.15L
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 Roborock S6 adjusts its height to match this demand, 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. Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact for easy maneuverability and carrying around. The iRobot Roomba 676, at 3kg
is lighter than the Roborock S6 by 0.6kg.
It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the robot 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, 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 important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
iRobot Roomba 676, 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, shortening 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 a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The iRobot Roomba 676, 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 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 run on a single charge. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
iRobot Roomba 676, at mAh1,800
has less battery power than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large space or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of the Roborock S6 refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. Roborock S6's operating time is 3h
iRobot Roomba 676, at 2h
spends less time than the Roborock S6 by only 1h
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 measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. iRobot Roomba 676, at 33W
consumes less power than the Roborock S6 by 25W. Lower power consumption can be more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, however 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 concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the space being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle.
