iRobot Roomba i3+ vs Roborock S7

I'm Erin from Techgadgetscanada.com and that may change with the launch of the new Roomba I3 Plus Robot Vacuum. This Irobot version is packed with fea...

Theyre just better, for less money

The Roombas well-designed and well built. The I3 certainly has a more powerful suction than the Model 650 and it does well traversing between our area rugs, hardwood and tile. Somehow, the I3 seems less attracted to charging cords and rug fringes than Ruby was. OCD types will be thrilled by the straight-line navigation of I3

This is not true. If you want your Roborock S7 to perform multiple passes in some or all rooms, YOU will have to do so manually in the app. This is not something that can be done via the Schedule-Menu as of 2022-03-22. Bin design is SMALL: if you have the auto-empty base it will not matter, but if you buy this as a stand-alone unit you will notice the need to empty it

I have had this vacuum for less than 2 years and have had nothing but problems with it. The self extraction stopped working and then would work on and off for several months and now I am getting en error message that the filter is clogged even though I've replaced it as well as the rollers. The customer support has been nothing but helpful, but definitely did not expect to be having to replace moat of the Robot at this early in the game. Hope your newer models are better

But no, it did get some hair clogged when I tried to empty it in that test, but it did just fine after that big test and was able to consistently clea...

Much noisier than I expected. Lately it is providing an error that claims "The Robot Base Needs Your Attention" but does NOT identify specifically what is the problem (seems to evacuate OK, bag is NOT full). Submitted issue to support and they sent out a new base, but it does the same thing. Have followed cleaning instructions for sensors in the base and the robot but nothing seems to address this issue

I tried the roborock s7 and between it not being able to back of its own dock, being obsessed with ramming into its own dock, getting stuck anytime it hit anything, not picking my anything off the carpet, it had air vents on the side (which I wasn’t used to coming from roomba) that sounds like a jet engine no matter what the speed setting was. I was already annoyed and the sound of a mini jet engine going through the house sent me over the edge in frustration! Am I to expect the same thing from the Deebot t8?
