Roborock S6 can clean all floor types, this is essential, since different rooms inside your home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is advertised as being able to clean all floor types, it implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean most flooring materials without any significant issues.
Roomba 692 aslo cleans all floor types, meaning it is built to be adaptable, providing best cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. Roborock S6 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's route, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Roomba 692 has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its environment, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and the Roborock S6 supports this feature. These zones are basicaaly 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 built to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and controlled using voice commands.
The Roomba 692 can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will need an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with your robot vacuum. Roborock S6 is compatible with Google Assistant, enabling you to control it using voice commands through Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app found on smartphones and tablets. Roomba 692 too is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before buying a robot vacuum.
Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 - 2 years, however some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods. The Roomba 692, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S6. When considering 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.
Roborock S6's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the vacuum can hold before it needs to be emptied. 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 allow for 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 to easily get around and carrying around. Roomba 692, at 3.5kg
is lighter than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 0.1kg. It's advisable 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, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it 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 space
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, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. Roborock S6's height measures 97mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home. Roomba 692, at 93mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 4mm. 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 Roomba 692, 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 beneficial if you have a large space or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete operations with less 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
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 often measured in watts (W) and changes among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
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. True, many modern robot vacuum cleaners can mop floors in addition to vacuuming.
These robot vacuums are often referred to as robot vacuum with mopping function 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 operation. You may want to consider buying either the Roomba 692 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 space. Roborock S6 supports a smartphone app, through which you can control and monitor the vacuum remotely through your smartphone or tablet.
Both the Roomba 692 and Roborock S6 have mobile application support, this enhances 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 during 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 Roomba 692 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 eliminate the chances of getting stuck while cleaning. Virtual barriers are typically set up and managed through 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 during cleaning. Both Roborock S6 and Roomba 692 support virtual barriers, the ability to set virtual barriers is mostly useful for homes having areas where the robot vacuum may become stuck.
Roborock S6 has a route mapping feature that enables it to generate a map of your space and schedule efficient cleaning routes. This mapping capability enhances the vacuum's ability to work effectively and systematically. Voice prompts refer to notifications that the vacuum emits to give you alerts on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 supports this feature
Roomba 692 also supports voice prompts, this feature is useful for you who like audible notifications or users who have visual impairments. Most robot vacuum cleaners such as Roborock S6 come equipped with an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is intended 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 Roomba 692 is key in avoiding accidents and protecting the robot vacuum from damage.
