Roomba s9+ VS Roborock S7 w/ Auto Empty Dock - Vacuum Wars Matchups!

[@VacuumWars]

Roborock S7+ at Amazon: geni.us/dSTk Roomba s9+ at Amazon: geni.us/kkFV

[@matchbox2736]

Omg this is EXACTLY what I wanted to see!!!!

[@Dan93y]

Ditto 😂

[@ironfacemusic]

Same here!

[@enda0man]

One thing that I feel should be mentioned is the ability to buy replacement parts from the OEM and whether or not the OEM provides guides on how to repair your device. I say this as my 5 years old roomba has been cleaning 4x a week for the last 5 years and the one or two times something had broken, it was simple and easy to get a replacement part and replace it myself. I’m not familiar with Roborock but it would be nice to add to your comparisons.

[@nicko5945]

New series?? This is an old series and I’m so glad you brought it back!! Can’t wait to see more of these again.

[@VacuumWars]

Thank you!!

[@mp8359]

​@@VacuumWars Can you talk about the maintenance cost to the vacuums. For those who are trying to decide. How often do filters, vacuum bags, other parts need to be replaced. If possible dollar amount.

[@sycksyn]

How about finding a way to test their HEPA filtration system? A vacuum is only as good as it's ability to prevent the particles from becoming airborne.

[@jjayguy23]

True, but remember these tiny vacuums have only a fraction of the suction that upright versions have. Less airflow, means a regular filter might be enough. To help combat the lack of HEPA filters, I make sure to run Air Purifiers in my house. My robot vacuum doesn’t aggregate my allergies, and it doesn’t have HEPA.

[@calvinl2149]

Because of working from home during covid, battery life can be more important because of noise. With my i7+, it can finish vacuuming my entire apartment if I go out to buy lunch or run an errand. Unfortunately the S9+ can't do the same job in one run so often needs to be run while I'm at home and the noise can be bothersome. Not only does the S9+ need to recharge in the middle of cleaning, but it runs significantly slower than my i7+ too.

[@victorc9195]

@vacuum wars I think you missed two big points regarding the Roborock…..one being that it has no bin-full sensor. It’s an issue because the bot sometimes fails to empty itself after a job because the alignment is sometimes off when it autodocks. This has a cascading effect because it results in the next job starting with a potentially full bin. It was getting to the point that I had to check the bin to make sure it emptied almost every time because otherwise the bot didn’t clean at all, it just wandered around with a full bin. The other issue with a mop/vac combo is that because the bot has a water tank, it inevitably has a smaller dust bin. The issue is again exacerbated by the fact that it doesn’t have a bin full sensor, so the possibility of the bin maxing out during a cleaning run and doing nothing for the rest of the session is very real….these were kind of deal breakers that def give the edge to iRobot in my opinion.

[@alex8449]

Not really you can just schedule a few rooms and it'll auto empty then just have a separate schedule for the other rooms and it'll empty... I don't even own one and even I know that... Creating two schedules takes 30 seconds and your problem is solved It's also one less sensor to clean which means roborock is the winner

[@victorc9195]

@@alex8449 maybe you missed the part where I said it doesn't empty all the way.... habitually...a self emptying robot that doesn't empty itself is a fail, so the nod goes to irobot.

[@Osama-cy1ch]

I've been using an S7+ for 10 months daily now without ever experiencing this issue...just got a s7 max v ultra last week and again no issues similar to what you're describing.......seems like you were experiencing a software bug and nothing more. It seems you're unaware irobot has a patent on a bin-full sensor until 2023...roborock has found a clever way around that and it works incredibly well.

[@maximthemagnificent]

I would much rather each vacuum get a rating (say 1 to 10 or 1 to 5) for each category than simply awarding a point to the one that might be very slightly better. Not only would this compare more accurately, but it would allow people to compute their own weighted scores based on how much they value each of the individual categories.

[@curtisbme]

He basically already has that in the individual reviews. If that is all you want it would just be a 10 second video showing the previous charts.

[@krystalbarnes8789]

I agree!! I don’t care about pet hair.. because I don’t have pets.. I don’t care about carpet.. because I don’t have carpet.. I have children and a husband with an outdoor lifestyle that are constantly tracking dirt and dropping crumbs.. and a very large home.. 2,000sqft on first floor with lvp flooring throughout.. I want to know if it has a mopping feature.. docks itself.. avoids shifting furniture and object avoidance as socks seem to fall from the clouds.. one without a bag system.. WiFi controlled.. long battery life and Will clean several rooms along with bathrooms with several area rugs

[@CraftedbyCharles]

Could you start recording the db level of the auto empty bases on each suction level?

[@Floortile83]

I just ordered a roborock s7 (without empty dock) yesterday. Haven't watched this yet, but hoping it doesn't convince me I made the wrong decision... Couple reasons I went with the s7 is the mopping (I have all tile downstairs) and that it's bagless... I'll get a Roomba to replace my current roomba for upstairs (which is all carpet). From what I seen so far, roomba is better for carpets.

[@VacuumWars]

good call!

[@kinzhou7555]

Get the dock it is worth it

[@johnsullivan8673]

You made a comment on a video you haven’t watched…why?

[@shanew7361]

How do you like it? We have 2700 sq ft carpet, tile and vinyl. One Persian cat and 1 girl. Concerned about pet hair and ability to clean carpets. Any issues with emptying the dirt bin or hair breaking or getting stuck on rollers etc? How is the maintenance? Does it auto detect when the on-board bin is full and go back to the base for a clean or does it keep cleaning but doing a poor job because the bin is full? Does the robot detect when the outside waste bin bag is full?

[@kmil2010]

Great video. Would be awesome to see the comparison between the Roborock S7 and the Ecovacs T8 with auto empty.

[@rockyroadmtb5973]

I second this

[@MrDexterSr]

I like the “vs” videos because we are often trying to decide between two or more different products 👍🏾

[@VacuumWars]

Thanks. I hope to stay at it.

[@catw6998]

Yes, indeed. Especially if they almost look the same, with almost same name but different model numbers. That’s another idea. Covering the same name models but letting us know which ones will have certain attachments - how they vary, and some don’t even give you an attachment :(

[@woodentrainseriesofficial9511]

@@VacuumWars any robot with sensor fusion technology? Where it uses the lidar+vslam.

[@ralf7823]

actually the choice here is pretty easy. If you have (more) hard floors, go for the Roborock. If your floors are carpet. It's the Roomba you will want.

[@alex9621]

Exactly. You summed it up perfectly

[@6681096]

Yep, I have an older roborock and an i7 and that's a good call.

[@thronepotato]

Thanks for this review. A large knock on the S7 is the bag system and not just a canister to empty. What are your takes on the bag system for the S7 in the United States.

[@denisradovanovic8778]

You are #1 channel to go through when looking for tests on robotic cleaners. I could watch it even if I don't need one :)

[@VacuumWars]

Wow, thank you!

[@venelinbakalov5945]

This format is amazing. Actually you've made some similar videos in the past and I loved them. Actually last month I finally decided (based on over an year watching your channel and future expectations) what robot I want to buy and am already having a ton of fun with the Roborock S7. For a future purchase I will take the auto empty bin. But even though I have it, I still continue to keep close track on the channel, so yes - do more Matchups!

[@VacuumWars]

Great to hear! Thank you!

[@nechar-joshi]

I would love to see just a mopping battle between Roborock S7 vs iRobot Braava Jet. Thanks.

[@michaelbitter7682]

Please do a comparison video of Roborock S7+ and iRobot J7+. Looking to update my home vacuum from Neato D7 and assume I'll end up with one of these.

[@doctorbeanis]

It's 4am. I'm at work. On my first break I'm watching vacuum wars. Just being honest. Great review! Might get the roborock for my parents since they have a lot of hardwood floors. Thanks! :)

[@TheMonkIsMad]

Navigation - point to Roborock. LIDAR does not require the room to be lit, whereas, VSLAM does, thereby limiting the window as to when the iRobot can be run. With regards to cleaning ability, you should take into account that Roborock cleans around the empty dock base, whereas, iRobot does not. In addition, the operation of the Roborock is superior to that of the iRobot. For example, when Roborock encounters an error the robot announces exactly what the error is and how to resolve it, whereas, iRobot directs the user to open the app for resolution instructions. On a personal note, I have had immeasurably more problems with iRobot than I've ever encountered with Roborock. In conclusion, I very much enjoy your reviews and videos.

[@VacuumWars]

Good input and much appreciated. Thank you for watching and for your kinds words.

[@rubenheymans1988]

You should try to send both of them back for repairs to test customer satisfaction. Although that also depends on where you buy them of course

[@ratcliffe1992]

Yeah I think the S7 auto empty dock (EU bagless version) will take the point if you ever get to test it. So many people have always wanted a bagless version due to the amount of pet hair their robots pick up daily. Myself included, plus the S9+ here in australia is like $2k+ its a little overpriced comparatively for international markets.

[@simioni]

Wait, there is a bagless version??? Any way to get that in the US?

[@ratcliffe1992]

@@simioni yep I got mine bagless, bought from aliexpress, but I had to parcel forward it from Germany to get it imported

[@simioni]

@@ratcliffe1992 That's so much nicer. Now I'm tempted to do the same. Thanks for the tip!

[@Sun.n.Flowers]

@@ratcliffe1992 I don't have the dock but have thought about it. I have debated getting it since there is not a bagless version in the US and the dock is pricey. Hoping it will decrease since the S7 Max Ultra will be coming out soon. I empty the S7 bin but I hate when the dust gets over my fingers and is flying everywhere in the trash bag/air even with just a small amount that was vaccumed. Did you notice any issues when emptying the auto emptying bin/canister since it is bagless? Is it true that with the bagged version you can't see how much dirt it picks up and once you take the bag out it breaks?

[@modernwize]

Battery life is a huge deal. For those of us that work from home, we need the vacuum to finish the job on the first attempt. I can't have the vacuum running out of juice, then resuming while I'm on a conference call. 5 hours later when the battery fully recharges, everyone is starting to get home and will want to watch TV or have dinner without the vacuum rolling under their feet. The battery is a much bigger deal than people realize.

[@jjayguy23]

You’re right!!! Roborock wins for bigger homes.

[@SomeLazyDr]

My i7 literally takes nine hours to clean a 1700 sqft house. A bit excessive.

[@zmast333]

Also, batteries degrade over time, which means they don't hold charge as long as they used to. Having a bigger battery is good because it may very well mean that you never need to replace it. For instance, say that the usable battery capacity drops to 50% after several years. If that's still enough to vacuum your home, you won't even notice it.

[@Vascariz]

Keen to see you test to T9 AIVI which has the same Aeroforce system as S9+ and higher suction power.

[@overkill1340]

I don't think the T9 is available in North America and there are rumors that it will not come here as part of the agreement that allows Ecovacs to use iRobot's patented brush system.

[@whidzee]

One thing that could be compared with the auto empty dock, is how expensive the replacement bags are, as this will be an ongoing cost to the user

[@patkern185]

I like the comparison series idea. You always give great information on the products you test. Thanks for all you do to help us make the wisest choice.

[@Sail218]

The Roborock suffers from a fatal design flaw that over time causes an error 10 'filter is clogged or wet' and reduced fan speed. The issue is that there is something about the design that allows dirt and dust to pass the filter and catch basin and clog the intake fan housing. This also causes reduced suction power over time. The other problem is, there is no easy way to clean the intake, it requires disassembling the machine and about 3 hrs of your time.

[@G_P_G]

great review! really makes me want to go from my roborock S4 to S7 for the bin and mop, but just hard to justify when the S4 works so well for us.

[@robertcooke7325]

Haven't thought of getting a product like this until now...looks impressive!

[@grantdybdahl8102]

Great series but have a couple problems: you need to weight the points. Giving the roborock 1 point for cost and right now it’s $50 different. But then giving only 1 point for cleanliness 96 vs 80 is not even close. One thing I didn’t see was object avoidance. I would add that category.

[@TheShadowWw]

Please add a 2 different corners to your hardwood square box tests or at least place a chair , as during vacuuming and especially with moping, it makes a huge difference to the result, as it has an angle of approach, and navigation, cleaning method it uses, I own a T8 aivi and there are issues when moping around table or chair legs

[@djsimmy3270]

Hi hi! Would you do the roborock s7+ vs the roomba j7+

[@catw6998]

(1) Are either of these 2 more likely to grab onto a bed skirt and not let go? (2) with regards to the one that mops too - how does it work around a sloppy dog’s water bowl and loose dog hair? I have that issue with Swiffer. I try dry - sweeping first, but if I get too close to the bowl, I just get a mess that often doesn’t pick up. I may have to wait 10 mins or so before I go back with the sweeping. It may be next to impossible to put in auto mode if I’m somewhere else.

[@mikestevens1441]

Owning both of these robots and the I7+... The Roborock S7 is clearly the winner in my needs/opinions. However, the mopping .is a complete joke and doesn't soak the mopping pad well enough and leaves a small streak. This seems to be more of a design problem. I'd like to see why your video looks so good and all of these complaints online from other people have similar problems.

[@VacuumWars]

Good to know. Thank you.

[@LeesReviews69]

[@thegamermantech43733]

I agree with LiDAR being significantly more accurate. One time, our old room a i8 got stuck INSIDE A KEEP OUT ZONE. Never had problems with it on our Roborock s5 max

[@ziminski13]

To be critical, I think you missed a few things. 1. The reviews of the S9 have been terrible, the number of errors that brick the machine makes it unbuyable IMO. 2. Single point per category scoring does not show any nuance, I think this review could've been summed up by saying buy the roomba if you have carpet, and he roborock if you have hard flooring. The channel is a great source of information, and very comprehensive. But I feel like it can miss the day in & day out usability that only owning the vacuums can offer, and instead we are given numbers that are hard to quantify. Keep up the hard work, always good to see the channel growing.

[@VacuumWars]

Thank you for your feedback.

[@jimlee1498]

i saw a review on another channel that tested to see if hardwood floors get scratched by robot vacuums. Have you seen any damage in your use of robots or plan to test this in the future? Thanks

If I were to have that happen, gosh that would be such a deal-breaker. Maybe some floors are more prone than others, but it isn’t something I have come across.

[@TH-hy8bi]

This was an excellent concise review. The only thing missing was comparison information about noise levels or decibels, especially since I have read that these robotic vacuums can be noisy.

[@the_frogbot8673]

I can’t speak for Roborock, but my Roomba j7+ Is pretty quiet, you could easily have a conversation while it was running. (The S9 has a higher-powered motor though, so I presume it’s a little louder.) On the other hand, it sounds like it’s about to take off when it’s emptying its bin into the dock. But it only does that for a few seconds anyway.

[@N91CZ]

We own 3 Roomba S9's. Two have been outright replaced for irreparable electronic faults and one is in and out of the shop for various fault codes. They are great when working, you just need to have spare on hand. Looking for other options now. Roborock sounds promising.

[@bankomeister11]

I have seen TONS of s9+ reviews saying it’s terrible compared with older models and that it needs a (hopefully forthcoming) software update to fix the problems. Do you think it’s better than the i7?

[@VacuumWars]

I have preferred the i7 in a past video.

[@GoFastGator]

The S9 had some serious hardware issues with early models becoming unusable due to the dreaded “Error 31”. iRobot replaced those units under warranty and my second unit has been great ever since. I will say that the D shape of the S9 is a disadvantage when it gets under dining room chairs. Ours seem to be just right to let it in but confuse the heck out of it getting out. Better than the i7? My MiL has the i7, in a tighter floor plan than ours and no self-empty base. It’s real close, but I still like our S9, especially on carpet. It’s had no trouble at all with my wife’s long hair, or our dog’s constant shedding. Can’t wait for VW to get his hands on the brand-new j7+!

[@JustLikeAJewel]

So now the real question is whether the Roborock can replace the irobot duo. The dream team link feature of the Roomba and Braava where it completes vacuuming then sends out the Braava to mop. Is the Roborocks mopping capabilities up to par or better than the stand alone Braava? What is the cleaning quality comparison and time saving difference between solely using the Roborock doing 2 in 1 or using the iRobot dream link. Hmmmmmmmm

[@hugodsa89]

Braava is actually so bad. I used to own one, my place is mostly tiles and in all honesty it leaves streaks, marks, and a mess everywhere. Your tiles are washed and clean, they just look like they aren't especially if they are shiny / glossy finish.

[@JustLikeAJewel]

@@hugodsa89 hmmmmmm interesting then 🧐🧐🧐

[@miket.1933]

You should have tried the Roomba in the dark. It is a lot worse than with light. And for me personally it is a big plus that the station of the Roborock can be used without bags as well. I don't want to buy expensive bags every 2 month.

[@dttra566]

That's only available in the European version I think. You can only buy the version with bags if you live in North America, something to do with FCC requirements or whatever I heard.

[@andrewbow9150]

It's strange because I purchased both for different reasons. I've never had a single problem with the roomba and it's integration into the Google Home app was seamless whereas the Robo I've had countless issues. Gets stuck constantly, the app barely works, the self emptying vacuum clogs, and the brush system clogs. None of which the roomba has had in over a year.

Does the robot detect when the outside waste bin bag is full?

Nice vid as always. I'm fan of your channel and of robot vacuum in general. I have a roborock S5 max and I'm very satisfied. In addition to the features you explained, the shape should be part of the comparison as the half rounded S9 is more efficient at cleaning the corners. Need to be mentioned here unless you take it in account in your website. Regards from France.

[@Floortile83]

Another good feature a company can add is the ability to customize mopping/vacuuming intensity based on area of the house it's in. So the entryways of the house get a harder scrub. And it preserves battery not having it as intense for other areas.

[@gerrypower9433]

Opinions please! If you had a home with 90%+ hard floors (the exception being one 9 X 12 area rug in the living room), would you just buy the best hard floor robovac, and manually vacuum the area rug? The bonus of that choice is that a vacuum for the carpet could be a model with a hose and attachments for extra convenience.

[@robertthomas685]

I loved this video as well as all of your videos!! We literally bought a Dyson V8 absolute a few years back due to your videos, as it was the best vacuum available at the time. We are in the market for a robot vacuum. I think I have narrowed it down to the roborock s7 with the auto empty bin and the ecovac N8 pro plus. We mainly have hard floors in our house and we have a baby on the way. We need a vacuum that Is great on hard floors and the mopping feature is a nice addition given our floor type. Which vacuum would recommend for my situation? I would love to see a matchup between the roborock s7 and the ecovac n8 pro plusi!

[@VacuumWars]

You are really looking at some top of the line vacuums. I can’t choose for you but I hope the videos help you out. Thank you for watching.

[@christianstorms3950]

in some videos you mention Roombas advantage of a modular build with many available spare parts. How is the repairability of the Roborock in comparison?

[@Jose_Pointero]

This is a very good point and was one of the main reasons I decided to go with the S9. iRobot *still* sells repair parts for the 1st gen Roomba from 2002! Not only that, but the modular design you mentioned makes it easy for the end-user to order parts and carry out repairs. After my first (non-Roomba) robot vacuum I bought back in 2014 broke a couple years later and the company brushed me off, you can understand why the repairability was a big factor for me. It's nice to know (or assume at least) that if I need S9 parts 5 years from now I will most likely still be able to order them from iRobot. The second reason was the S9's performance on carpet cleaning, which I can vouch that is indeed very good in my experience.

[@s_rofbear]

Thank you, this was a super helpful match up video! I’d love to see one comparing the Dyson Omniglide and the Dyson Micro. I love the multi-directional feature of the Omniglide, but the handle of the Micro makes me think the Micro might be a better choice (because you can use it more easily as a small handheld vacuum). But with the Micro you miss out on the dual fluffy rollers as well as the multi-directional head. So I’m really torn!

i love this and you NEED to do the iRobot s9+ vs deebot n8 pro

[@Italiana1202]

Hello , do you know how to clean the filter ? Or does it need to be cleaned ?

[@adiands850]

How good are they are cleaning in corners (on hardwood floors), and which one would you say is better at it? Thanks for the great video.

[@ZapDash]

We have longer carpet, few hard floors, two people with long hair, and a St. Bernard who is shedding like crazy. Think the Roomba might be better due to the deep carpet clean and hair tangle resistance?

[@katrinamyers4768]

Can you compare the volume of the dust bin auto empty feature? My S9+ is kinda loud and jarring, looking to see if the roborock would do any better.

[@derekrowe6890]

I’m building a house with all hard wood floors. You just saved me from making a mistake and buying a roomba. Thank you

[@cpattullo1]

The format is great. Please keep it up. I agree with @MMontserrat. Individual scores would be most useful as not only would we be able to see relative winners of a matchup, but we can compare any other ones later down the road and as was mentioned people can apply their own evaluations. Great stuff all around!

Thank you for your feedback!

I honestly wouldn't mind seeing the Deebot OZMO N8 Pro + compared with the Roborock S7 + Auto Empty Base in one of these. I got the former for a fantastic deal at the time, but now that Roborocks Auto Empty dock is out I wouldn't mind seeing a comparison for future purchases.

If we manage to get our hands on a euro spec roborock with the bagless design, it should work just fine in the US, right?

[@VacuumWars]

check with roborock. The UK and US use two different standards of electrical current for appliances.

[@30pals]

Thank you very much for this useful video! It has really helped to see the differences between both the vacuums! Really Appreciate it 🙏🤗

[@VacuumWars]

Great to hear!

[@marikoflores7347]

Can one of the robot vacuum# replace upright vacuum when cleaning carpet?

[@raykrrk]

Ecovac n8 pro Plus vs all these high end please

[@modernwize]

I have both. The N8 Pro Plus is better, BUT the short battery life on the N8 is a deal breaker.

[@SuperTunaSandwich]

@@modernwize What if you have small rooms?

[@modernwize]

@@SuperTunaSandwich Roborock gets stuck on my carpet and rugs. Ecovac doesn't.

[@alejandrogonzalez9037]

Awesome video! Thanks for making this! Would also like to see the T8 AIVI against the new N8+ models!

[@VacuumWars]

Thank you!

[@rm9343]

It would be great if you could include noise levels in your reviews.

[@Aadi22796]

Can you please do a Roborock S7 vs Ecovacs N8 in this series next? 👌Awesome video!

[@sutejocandi]

Hi.. great review as always, by the way, viomi s9 is kinda similar to roborock s7 with way cheaper price.. could you review that as well??Much appriciated.. cheers..

[@danielbass09]

Great format!! Keep it up! Wish roborock bin would come to Australia already though…

[@VacuumWars]

Thanks! Sorry to hear that about the bin!
