In this video, I’m testing the Roomba i3 EVO (3550) cleaning performance, testing the Roomba automatic dirt disposal feature in extreme conditions. I'll share my thoughts on how the self-emptying base performs compared to other self-emptying robot vacuums such as the Ultenic T10, Lydsto R1, Yeedi Vac Station, and Dreame Z10 Pro. Also, you are going to see how well the Roomba i3+ navigates around, how it bumps into things, and what features are available in the iRobot Home app. I'll show my maintenance routine with the Roomba i3+, clearance & climbing test compared to the 360 S10, Eufy Robovac L70. I also compared the Roomba i3+ noise level compared to the Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Mop and Roborock S7. The Roomba i3 is almost identical to the Roomba i4, except for a bit larger battery in the i4. Let me know in the comment what do you think about the Roomba i3+ and the review.

@@SmartRobotReviews that's one of the biggest problem. The robot has to charge 3 times to clean the entire house. And it takes more than 5 hours to do a complete run. It also looses track on where it is and sometimes I have to pick it up and put it on dock.

Great review thank you. I just got the i3+ yesterday from Best Buy online. Black Friday deal. Always wanted one of these. If I wanted to upgrade later on. Could I use the i3 base for the i7 or j7? Because that LiDAR tech seems to be worth the extra money.

Thank you for watching, glad you like the video! According to iRobot, the Roomba i3 and i7 use the same base. However, the newest Roomba j7 uses a different base and it is not compatible with the i3 base.

The new vac would have its own and possibly better base. Not sure why you'd keep the old one. Also the different series almost always have a different base. For ex the i3 and i7 have the same base but the j7 does not.

@@romanbitenc I think the j7 battery is the same as in the i3/i7, as well as suction power and cleaning performance. It looks identical to the i3 and i7 underneath and iRobot states that it has 10x power (same as i3/i7) compared to 600-series. Looks like the only difference is the object avoidance feature and new base.

Wow, that was one entertaining video from.beginning to end..... It's 12am and for some reason I can't sleep. I bought this vacuum about 35 minutes ago on Walmart online for $288 because I thought it was steal Then I found out thst Roomba has a robot mop too! So I bought the companion for $299 I soent over $600 to surprise my wife (who will.not be happy) all because I can't sleep!

Grateful if you could answer few of the queries that I have. How does this Roombai3 compare to Mi 1C mija? Both are blind robots so to say. Is Mi C1 a better deal or is Roomba i3 a better deal. Right now Roomba i3 costs 200 Euro and Mi C1 costs 150 Euro in my country. I am looking for a cheaper robot cleaner for my summer house. I have a Roborock S5 max for the main house and that works very well.

Depending on what you are looking for. I would go for the Roomba only because of its self-emptying base. I can't say the Xiaomi 1C is much better at navigation but it saves a map and also supports no-go zones/zoned cleaning. However, recently the Roomba got an update and now it can save a map but I haven't received one yet.

My I3+ cleans great with 4 dogs and the sand they bring in. The problem is the navigation. It spends 90% of the time in my dining room and most of the time misses my bedroom completely.
@SmartRobotReviews
@SmartRobotReviews 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for sharing your experience. I don't have such issues probably because I live in a small apartment. Also, perhaps there are a lot of obstacles like chair legs or other furniture in your dining room. Unfortunately, the navigation tech used in this robot is not as accurate as in Lidar or camera-based robot vacuums. Basically, it just measures the distance and orientation with a gyroscope, floor tracking sensor, and compass, and uses this data to build a map. But in a complex layout with a lot of obstacles, it may get lost and repeat cleaning the same areas a few times.

Depending on what you are looking for. I haven't tested the i8+ but assume navigation would be more advanced. For cluttered homes the i8+ because you would have an ability of setting no-go zones + it saves a map. I live in a small apartment so i3+ is enough for me but it's mostly an open space.

Not cleaning both sides of the base is very unusual. I've seen this on other reviews of the new Roombas as well.
@SmartRobotReviews
@SmartRobotReviews 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, it's also true for most other robot vacuums. It looks like iRobot made it to avoid the area around the base to prevent the robot from accidentally climbing on the base when cleaning nearby as it may get stuck or slightly rotate the base.
