- In this video I explain the similarities and differences between the different Roomba models. All the Roombas except the Newest iRobot Roomba S9+ has a similar design and functions. The Cheapest WiFi enabled e5 uses a Random Navigation Pattern, where the more expensive models like the i7+, i8+ and s9+ use smart mapping aka iAdapt 3.0.

Loved this video had been wondering on i3+ vs i7+ and this helped me see i3 in action.
What did you get
That entrance was AMAZING. I bought an i3+ because of your videos and I LOVE it thank you!
Is I3 great for 3 dogs??? Lots of short pet hair!! Which one do you recommend?? Black Friday deal but so many choices....confusing. also vs. Deebot 500
There are more memes in thiss video then in a meme compilation but i like it:)
Once the i7 maps a lite bathroom can it then navigate the now dark bathroom by using the map it created, or do the lights have to be on?
It can clean in complete darkness, keep in mind if there new furniture and obstacles the robot may get confused since it no longer relying on it camera to reorient itself
I'm curious, if you pick up and move the i3 while its cleaning, is it still able to find its base? It seems like that would cause a problem given how it navigates.
No it will get confused. Only the 960 and higher end models can relocate
Hi, Nathan, thank you for making these videos. I bought a Yeedi on your rec as my first robot vaccum, and how I am hooked. I noticed you have light (cold air in the winter) coming under your front door. Maybe you have tried to adjust this, but your doorsill appears to have adjustments to help fix this. With the door open you should see flat head screw features, turn those and the sill should move up, sealing the gap.
Thanks for the tip, I been using a magnetic wind sill to block out the light. I have a 2nd door that keeps the wind out.
I am debating between the i3 and e5. I am not too worried about the difference in price, but I have seen the e5 on many lists of best Roombas whereas I didn't see the i3 on any. However, the multidirectional pattern and restart ability of the i3 interest me. Sidenote I do have pets. Can you offer your advice? Thank you!
As a pet owner, you would probably benefit from the self emptying bin and a more systematic cleaning pattern. The e5 and i3 use the same cleaning mechanics so same cleaning performance.
Again like last Friday Best day ever! for ME! U and Vacuum Wars each made a video!

Hello, I like your videos very much, even if my English is unfortunately not very good 👍 I fluctuate between the i7 (voice control and rubber roller good for hair? But in the tests rather behind Roborock & Ecovacs), the t8 without AIVI (voice control , good navigation, automatic carpet detection, but the app is not that good) and the Roborock s6 MaxV (good app, lots of software updates, reliable, but the filter is more difficult to clean than on the t8 and what about long hair? I currently prefer but rather the s6 MaxV before the t8 and the i7. What do you think as a professional? which ranking for the 3 models? Greetings
I would rate the I the Top in regards of pet hair pickup and easy removal. Can't wash the filter which is possible on the S6 Max V. The T8 has every possible feature, self emptying system, vibrating mopping system. The S6 Max V has the best navigation. So it depends on what features you are looking for.
@@RobotMasters okay, than with long hair (human hair) would the t8 be more suitable? Can the filter of the t8 be cleaned? Then the t8 would be more suitable than the S6 MaxV? and what about the Roomba i7? is the t8 better because it is newer? Many greetings
@@XxBSExX All 3 robots can pickup long hair. I found the i7 dual extractor bar the easiest to remove the long hair. The T8 has the most features over the other two robots. You can clean the filter on the T8 but usually needs replacement every 3-6 months depending on how often you use the robot.
Hey wanna ask, so you tested ozmo t8 non-cam and t8 aivi. Hmmm.. which one is better?
It really depends what you are looking for. The non AIVI T8 seemed better at recognizing objects than the T8 AIVI, but Ecovacs representative says overtime the T8 AIVI should do better. The AIVI has the live camera streaming and one way audio transmission. Everything else is the same.
Robot Masters thanks alot
BTW...I got my i3 and it really is great. still need to know if I can start it out in another room and just push clean...?
Yes you can, I would recommend starting from the docking station and the robot will be able to return to the docking station automatically
Why my i4 roomba robot vacuum don't let me schedule cleanings for specific parts of the house?
The i4 only has static mapping which allows the robot to know where the charger is, know where it clean and where it needs to clean and provide a cleaning report. Unfortunately you can't interact with the map aka tell the robot to clean a certain room. Those features are reserved for the i7 and up.
The i3 + is awesome choice awesome video 👏
Thanks Man!!!🤣🤣🤣
Hello need advise on which to get this one or the t8? They are both on sale currently and I can't decide which to get. Thanks!
Between the Two it really depends on what you are looking for. The T8 has the Lidar navigation which it allows it to clean effectively in complete darkness amzn.to/3l2F4G0
The i3 is good if you have a very messy floor plan. Can handle a lot dirt and debris. Also the dual extractor bar does a good job picking up hair and very easy to clean. Here a few other recommendations too.
If you want the best navigation the Roborock S6 MaxV is on sale
amzn.to/361HgcG
The S5 Max is cheaper and for goes the front camera but offers similar cleaning performance. amzn.to/3pSWUzb
The Ecovacs T8 non aivi is a little cheaper but doesn't use a front camer for object avoidance. Also can't be used as a mobile security camera of have one way audio to speak to your pets when you are away. The T8 AIVI has all of those things
Lastly the Ecovacs T8 series supports a vibrating mopping module and self emptying system.
@@RobotMasters I meant the 8t+ as right now is on sale for $450 and the i3+ for $400 I do have cabinets and what not but I see that the i3+ bumps on to everything from what I have seen.
@@DeAtHvAnGeL I see yes the i3 does have to physically bump onto objects, the T8 does too. Not as much since it can detect objects better.
@@RobotMasters Lol thanks I never thought I would have trouble deciding between two robo vacuum lol!
@@DeAtHvAnGeL Hahaha very tough choice!!! Buy BOTH 😇, just kidding, the i3+ is on the best pricing yet at $399 amzn.to/2JbR8b4
Should I get roboorock s5 max or s6 both are on sale just for today so I was wondering ?
Probably go with the S5 Max, has the electronic mopping system.
@@RobotMasters ok thanks and also I replied in 7 seconds
Was this on auto setting or 2-pass? If I had this robot, for regular use, I think I would do 1-pass so it runs for a shorter time, and then do that as frequently as necessary.
I had it set to two passes, As you run the robot more and more usually one pass is sufficient as it keeps the dirt down.
Howdie, thanks for the i3 video....question...If I want it to vacuum a room can I just sit it in there and push clean?
Yes if you close the door

Hi Nathan, I need your help. My sisters birthday is coming up in February and I need help choosing which robot would be best for her. Her house is mainly hardwood with a few small area rugs, has 2 floors, and is about 1700 square feet. I have chosen that I want to give her the Braava M6, but I am not sure what robot vacuum would be best for her. I have narrowed it down to 2, the Roomba i3, Samsung Powerbot r7040. I am on a budget of under $350 for the vacuum, since the rest of the money will be spent on the braava jet. Because you know more than I do, if there is another robot under $350 that you think would be better, that would be helpful. She does not care about the braava jet connecting to the robot, but she does what smart mapping. Thank you!
So I been using the Roborock S4 Max, Roborock latest model that was released. With the Roborock models you get smart mapping and the Max version allows better multi level support, something that important since she has two levels. It currently on sale $90 off amzn.to/3mOyLXx
Now the i3 is something you were looking at. Keep in mind there no smart mapping aka being able to tell the robot to clean a certain room or area. You also don’t get keep out zones via the app, have to use the light house. If you can forgo the smart mapping than the i3+ is a good robot that you can add a self cleaning option latter on.
So another recommendation that would be good for your sister’s floor plan is 360 s7 amzn.to/3aC6UYi
Offers the smart mapping and multi floor support. Also the 360 models have very good navigation and reliability. I owned the 360 for several years without issues, and been using the 360 s9. The S9 is more expensive but since you are planning on getting a braava jet, the mopping on the S9 not necessary, so the s7 a better choice.
So those are the two robots I recommend that have good and easy to use multi level floor support, have good cleaning performance and navigation abilities. Lastly has all the smart mapping features you will need.
I3 vs 980 for pet hair (3 short hair dogs) on hardwood?? Thank you
Hmm the i3 might be the better buy especially at a deal if $399.
amzn.to/3nUgNEa
The 980 doesn't offer the self emptying system, and the i3 uses the same cleaning system as the more expensive i7.
Are you going to review i4?
Any advice for if this would work on a fairly smooth painted concrete floor in my shop.
I've got a big area and it gets lost of dust accumulation. I think I need a self-emptying vacuum that will keep the large floor clean while I'm away.
It will work, keep in mind the extractor bars aren't designed for concrete floors, they will wear out quicker.
Please do a review comparison of the new SHARK IQ XL self emptying bin that just came out in September. I just upgraded and it can vacuum 1hr and 40 minutes! They also improved their app! Got it on Amazon Prime Day last week for $334! Still cheaper and still out performs the Roomba!
I may revisit the Shark IQ again, haven't decided 🤔
@@RobotMasters I think with all these robots you have, you mind as well buy the new Shark IQ XL to compare against the i3 plus, i6, i7, i8 and i9. See who wins your robot’s hear desire.
Which one is better i3 or 960? 960 has camera based navigation!
Hmm the navigation is better on the 960 but the i3 does work with the self emptying system at the cheapest price point.
1:00 Me finding a good spot for hide and seek.
The i3 just got a smart mapping update this week that lets you clean by room, still no keep out zones though. That's the only difference between the i3 & i7 now
WoW that pretty cool. Seems like a good value with the i3
@@RobotMasters it's like they gave me a whole new robot, now I can tell it to stay out of the bathroom because it keeps locking itself in 🤦♂️
@@nickloss LOL, a few of my robots like to close the door on themselves. Maybe it their way of saying they don’t want to clean all the rooms.
Would like to see a direct comparison between i3 (without the empty bin system) and the 960, specifically focused on navigation and cleaning completion.
The navigation is very similar, only main difference is if you physically move the 960 the robot has the ability to relocate it self and figure out where it is at. The E3 uses gyroscopes so it can't update it location. The cleaning performance and mechanics are similar, the 960 has the vacuum motor in the dust bin. I think it has higher airflow than the e3 but can't test that.
@@RobotMasters Thank you! I've been looking at the Neabot NoMo as well, since it's $424 right now, and I like the lidar and nav on it. . . But conflicted because of availability and 3rd party support for Roombas is superior. . .
@@bizzyb0t If you can spend the extra money on a roomba i3+ or i7+ I think it worth it. The customer service and parts availability is really good.
@@RobotMasters Thank you! I think I'm getting a new i3+ (with the empty bin system) as soon as Best Buy opens this morning. I am impressed with the navigation even without the camera or radar. It's smart enough for my usage.
@@bizzyb0t Sounds good let me know how you like the i3 or if there any questions 😇
Hi Is the i1+ the same as the i3+?
Yes, main difference is depending on where you buy the robot, they may be shipped with difference accessories.
Not understanding the new software. You used to be able to set it to return to base when the bin is full. Now you just have the option to continue or stop with a full bin.
Try the stop option, the robot should return and empty
Hey Robot Masters. I need help choosing a vac. Its between Roomba i7+,Roborock S6 Maxv, Ozmo 950/960/T8 aivi
It really depends on what you are looking for. The S6 Max V has the best navigation, T8, 960 and 960 has the active carpet avoidance and sensor, lastly the i7+ has the best self emptying system. Let me know what type of floor plan you have and I can help narrow it down.
@@RobotMasters i have no carpet. The whole house is laminated.
Which vac would you recommend? I also would prefer self emptying.
@@BlueJ502 The T8+ that has a self emptying system pretty good. Also the Roomba i7+ is another recommended robot.
@@RobotMasters the T8+ with empty bin is $950+ while the i7+ $800
please suggest which one to buy this prime day :
Roborock :
S6 $419
S5 max $439
S6 pure $400
T8+ with auto empty - $450
Sharq IQ with self empty - $335
It depends on what you are looking for. The S5 Max and Roomba are my top pics. The T8 AIVI offers a lot features like security camera and vibrating mopping system.
Thanks for replying. Is s5 max even better than the regular s6?
@@vdeojunkie Yes
*insert John cena saying ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT*
Can you interchange the ROOMBA e5 dustbin with the ROOMBA i3/i7+? If so, can the ROOMBA e5 empty the bin with the i7 dustbin? 🤔🤪
All the dustbin are interchangeable, the self emptying system will charge the other models if physically placed on there, but the robot won't automatically go to the self emptying station nor self empty.
Robot Masters what if you set the ROOMBA e5 in one room where it will do a cleaning run and the only charger is the self-emptying bin? With the i7 dustbin, what will it do?
@@MrBlueCreeper it will treat it like a regular dirt bin, just won't self empty.
Robot Masters got it. I was just so curious!
Do you still have your i7
No, have the i8+
The roborock s4 max just went on sale for 430!!!
Wow that a better deal than the S5 Max!!!
Robot Masters the ROBOROCK s4 max is the s5 max without the mop.
Where did you find that? I live in Canada and so many vacuums are either unavailable or not as often on sale
@@PshycoNinja809 I found the S4 Max on Amazon
@@RobotMasters not available in Canada, but I did find the s5 max in black just now at best buy for 750$cad
Was that the i7+ or the i8+?
I covered the i7+, i8+ and i3+. The cleanup challenge was using the i3+
Thank you
0:30... no 675 love? it does have wifi.
2:15 nope.. the e5/6 cant do that
8:30 the e5 does not have the optical sensor the e6 has both.
Thanks for the corrections, I believe the e5 only has the acoustic sensor to detect dirt. I forgot that the 675 had wifi as well. I realised there no dirt bin full sensor on the e5 model. Will double check all the facts next time, went off memory.
Do you prefer the i3+ or i8+ roomba?
I personally like the i8, it is more expensive but has more features.
@@RobotMasters I will look into the i8+ thanks for relying. Also do you find that the roombas scratch your hardwood floor at all? I heard specifically the i7/i8 and 960 have scratched some floors.
@@juliedo5435 Yes robots can scratch certain floors, especially if their extractor bars get very dirty. There a few that use suction only ports or a foam style extractor bar which are gentle on delicate floors.
Where you at Robot Master? No new videos 🥺
I am going back to uploading 1 or 2 videos a week. Should have one tomorrow morning.
Does the i3 have carpet boost?
No it has only one suction level.
I laugh because it said I did not laugh
Come on, I always believe you
I3+ full house clean ?
yes
