Roborock S6
iRobot Roomba j7/j7+
The Roborock S6 is better than the iRobot Roomba j7. The Roborock incurs lower recurring costs, has fewer parts that need regular cleaning, has a longer battery life, comes with a mopping attachment for dealing with sticky messes on bare floors, and delivers superior performance on bare floors and low-pile carpets. The iRobot has more advanced automation features like its hazard detection capability that enables it to automatically identify and maneuver around pet waste. If you go for the j7+ variant, its self-emptying function lets it dump any accumulated debris from its internal dustbin to an external dirt compartment on its charging dock, reducing hands-on maintenance requirements. The iRobot also performs better on high-pile carpets and charges a lot faster.
