iRobot Roomba i7
Roborock S6
The Roborock S6 is a better robot vacuum for bare floors than the iRobot Roomba i7. Although we don't currently test for it, the Roborock comes with a mop feature that attaches to its underside, allowing you to clean sticky messes. It feels better built, is easier to maintain, and has fewer recurring costs. It has a better battery performance, and it does a significantly better job on bare floors. However, the iRobot cleans carpet more thoroughly as it can pick up more small and large debris. It also comes with an automatic dirt disposal feature in its charging dock, where the robot returns to the dock and empties its dirt compartment into a larger dirtbag for easier disposal.
