The iRobot Roomba i3, 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 indicates how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the vacuum can hold before it can be emptied.
iRobot Roomba i3, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among different robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should depend 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 moving to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact.
The Roborock S6 weighs 3.6kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. The iRobot Roomba i3, at 4.3kg
weighs more than the Roborock S6 with a difference of 0.7kg. It's advisable to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting 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 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 space
The iRobot Roomba i3, at 337mm
measures less in width than the Roborock S6 by 13mm. 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 measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home. iRobot Roomba i3, at 92mm
measures less in height than the Roborock S6 by 5mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit 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. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S6's battery power is 5,200mAh
The iRobot Roomba i3, 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 home or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the Roborock S6 refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged.
Roborock S6's operating time is 3h
iRobot Roomba i3, at 1.25h
spends less time than the Roborock S6 with a difference of only 1.75h
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 can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
That's right, many modern robot vacuum cleaners have the capability to 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, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and based on their readings adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during operation. 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 i3 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 likelihood of the robot vacuum becoming stuck while cleaning. Robot vacuums such as the Roborock S6 are equipped with various sensors and technologies to navigate around obstacles and avoid getting stuck, however the effectiveness of this feature can vary among different models.
Both the iRobot Roomba i3 and Roborock S6 have the "anti-stuck" feature, but clearing clutter, ensuring proper cable management, and creating clear paths for the vacuums helps to further eliminate the chances of becoming stuck while cleaning. These virtual barriers are set up and managed via the robot vacuum's mobile app, similar to no-go zones, these barriers are setup to enable you control and restrict where the robot vacuum can and cannot go during cleaning. Roborock S6 has a route mapping feature which enables it to create a map of your space and plan efficient cleaning routes.
This mapping capability improves the vacuum's ability to clean effectively and systematically. Route mapping is an important feature as it enables robot vacuums such as the iRobot Roomba i3 to adapt to the layout of your space to work more efficiently and reduce the chance of missing certain spots. Voice prompts are notifications that the vacuum states to give you alerts on the different states of the vacuum.
Roborock S6 has this feature
