Roborock S7 cleans all floor types, this is essential, since different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum is stated as being able to clean all types of floors, this implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to clean several flooring materials without much significant issues.
iRobot Roomba i4 Evo aslo cleans all floor types, meaning it is built to be versatile, giving effective cleaning results on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. The vacuum's ability to create a digital map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the desired space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, for example the Roborock S7 having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. iRobot Roomba i4 Evo also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation states how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't.
Roborock S7 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor 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 i4 Evo has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its surroundings, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and the Roborock S7 is one of them.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas 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 S7 are built to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be added to the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands. The iRobot Roomba i4 Evo can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will require an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with iRobot Roomba i4 Evo.
The Roborock S7 is compatible with Google Assistant, allowing you to control it using voice commands via Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app installed on smartphones and tablets. iRobot Roomba i4 Evo is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum. The Roborock S7 has 4 cleaning modes, the cleaning modes supported by robot vacuums varies widely depending on the design of the robot vacuum.
iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, having only 3
has less modes than the Roborock S7 with a difference of only 1
Robot vacuum manufacturers offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to different cleaning floors. Roborock S7 has a period of 1 year, warranty periods typically range from 1 - 2 years, but some higher-end models may give longer warranty periods. iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Roborock S7.
When thinking of buying 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. The Roborock S7 has washable filters, these are designed to capture dust, dirt, and fine particles during the cleaning process and can be easily removed and cleaned to maintain the vacuum's performance. The Roborock S7's dustbin capacity is at 0.5L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, debris, and pet hair the vacuum holds before it can be emptied.
iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, at 0.4L
carries less dirt than the Roborock S7 with a difference of only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary 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. Most robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied. Roborock S7 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged which means performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied.
iRobot Roomba i4 Evo also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to indicate that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it reduces the need for constant monitoring. 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 measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Roborock S7's battery power is 5,200mAh
The iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, at mAh1,800
has less battery power than the Roborock S7 by only
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large room or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single charge before it needs to be recharged. Roborock S7's operating time is 3h
iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, at 1.25h
spends less time than the Roborock S7 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. Roborock S7 has a charge time of 5h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle.
The iRobot Roomba i4 Evo, at 2h
spends lesser time charging than the Roborock S7 by only 3h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum begins its next cleaning cycle. The operating power consumption of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home.
Roborock S7 has a power consumption of 68W, power is often measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed an operation or when specific conditions occur. Roborock S7 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
Also, iRobot Roomba i4 Evo has this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a valuable addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning operations. That's right, most modern robot vacuum cleaners can mop floors in addition to vacuuming. Such robot vacuums are often referred to as robot vacuum with mopping function models and Roborock S7 is one of those robot vacuums
Roborock S7 has carpet detection, this enables the vacuum to identify and adjust to different floor surfaces, to be specific recognizing when it moves from hard floors like hardwood to areas with carpets.
Such a feature is designed to boost cleaning performance and also ensure that the vacuum adjusts its settings right when cleaning carpets. Robot vacuums with a carpet detection feature such as the Roborock S7 and iRobot Roomba i4 Evo utilize sensors to detect surfaces, allowing them to make necessary adjustments for efficient cleaning.
