Roborock S6 has a width of 350mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is 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 time it takes to clean a room
The iRobot Roomba 692, at 330mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S6 by 20mm. 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 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 iRobot Roomba 692, at 93mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 by 4mm. 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. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
iRobot Roomba 692, 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 of advantage if you have a large room 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 amount of 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 692, 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 measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
The iRobot Roomba 692, 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 have the capability to 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 room being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation.
