A:AnswerThe I 7 is quieter than other models it is i believe a lil bit more powerful the warranty I'm not aware of which is better and the filter is a little bit small if you don't buy the automatic empty fantastic planning of the floor plans
A:AnswerI don't hear the blower motor either but it is there, the i7 has lower suction than some other brand vacuums but with the double rollers that is supposed to make up for it cleaning deep into carpet and I had the Shark IQ first until it broke down and it had more suction than the i7 but both clean very well. Watch Youtube videos on comparing the different Robots you will learn a lot, I did.
A:AnswerAgain that would depend on the surface and the frequency of use to the quality of to keeping it clean regularly the I7 I am happy with
The more you run it the less you have to empty the filter
A:AnswerRoomba will avoid soft obstacles, like clothes, shoes or stuffed animals. Your robot will get close to the items to clean as much of the floor as possible and then move on. If the item is very small - a sock, for instance - it may drive over it, but won't pull it into its rollers.
A:AnswerI don't think so, they are very durable, My daughter has 2 cats, and they are afraid of it. Unless your cat wants to sit on top of it, and ride around on it!
A:AnswerThe i7+ simply denotes that the automatic dustbin is included. The i7 roomba robot is the exact same robot that is part of the i7+ system. Think of the “+” as meaning “clean base/ auto dust bin”.
I picked up the i7 robot alone and quickly regretted not having the clean base. Buy the clean base system separate and it comes with a new special bin to swap out on your bot, but the bot is the same.
In short, i7 or i7+ is the exact same high end robot unit.
A:AnswerDepends on the size of the toy or object. If the object doesn't trigger the sensor that says the robot hit something, it will more than likely push the toy until it does hit something. If the toy won't go under the edge of the robot, then it shouldn't suck it up, but that is a possibility again based on the toy size. That isn't much different than a regular vacuum though. As for moving furniture, we sometimes put our table chairs up, and sometimes leave them down, and the robot seems to adjust accordingly to the changes. You do need to be careful with cords on the floor that the vacuum might come in contact with as those can get sucked into the cleaning mechanism. If the robot gets jammed, it will stop and let you know until you clear the jam.
