Roborock S6 cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, as different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum cleaner is advertised as being able to clean all floor types, this means that the robot vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean several flooring materials without any limitations.
iRobot Roomba e5 can also clean all floor types, meaning it is designed to be versatile, giving best cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. Roborock S6 has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's way, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the iRobot Roomba e5 has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its environment, making it possible 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 advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Roborock S6 supports this feature. These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up preventing the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Roborock S6 are built to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands.
iRobot Roomba e5 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. 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 found on smartphones and tablets. iRobot Roomba e5 is compatible with Google Assistant, it's always essential to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum.
Roborock S6 has a period of 1 year, warranty periods for robot vacuums typically range from 1 - 2 years, but some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods. The iRobot Roomba e5, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S6. When considering a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply.
Roborock S6's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the vacuum holds before it can 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 enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact.
Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. iRobot Roomba e5, at 3.3kg
is lighter than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 0.3kg. 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, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively clean in one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is key as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
iRobot Roomba e5, 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 measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The iRobot Roomba e5, at 92mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 5mm. 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 run on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
The iRobot Roomba e5, at mAh3,300
has less battery power than the Roborock S6 by 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 operations without frequent 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
The iRobot Roomba e5, 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 typically measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
True, 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, dirt sensors are designed to detect the availability of dirt, dust, or debris in the area being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. You may want to consider buying either the iRobot Roomba e5 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, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet. Both the iRobot Roomba e5 and Roborock S6 have mobile application support, this enhances the user experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities. This feature in robot vacuum cleaners is designed to eliminate 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 navigate around obstacles and avoid getting trapped, but the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models. Both the iRobot Roomba e5 and Roborock S6 have the "anti-stuck" feature, but clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums can help further reduce the chances of becoming stuck while cleaning. 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 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 create a map of your home 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 information on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 has this feature
Most robot vacuum cleaners such as Roborock S6 come having an "cliff detection" feature. This feature is designed to prevent 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 e5 is key in mitigating accidents and keeping the robot vacuum from damage.
It gives you peace of mind knowing that the vacuum will not fall off a ledge during its cleaning cycle. Roborock S6 has this convenient feature, which enables you to set specific days or times of day for the robot vacuum to automatically start working. The scheduling feature in robot vacuums is particularly useful in maintaining a consistently clean space without the need for manual intervention.
iRobot Roomba e5 too allows scheduling.
