Re: does the roomba detect stairs?

The quiz might be out of date, the S5 is no longer available, the S7 is newer 
and better anyway. The Q5 does not mop but the Q7 and Q7 max will but the mop 
does not vibrate like it does with the S7 series.

Once again, Mich is from Ontario so he most likely looked up Canadian pricing 
which is most likely about 30% higher due to the exchange rate.

Every robot vacuum that is currently available has drop sensors to prevent 
falling down stairs so this should not be an issue, I would definitely go for a 
Roborock instead of a Roomba.

RE: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-19 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
Why don't you go to the manufacturer's website and get the information from the 
horse's mouth so to speak.
Also a simple Google search for "Roborock E series vs S series" will probably 
yield comparisons and reviews.

As for Mich saying he couldn't find anything for $200, keep in mind that most 
people discussing this are from the US so if it's $200 in the US it means it's 
probably at least $260 to $300 here in Canada.

The major differences are that the S7 has LiDAR and better mapping and 
navigation support. The E5 has a camera and navigates by inertia. The S7 app 
also gives you access to more features, like changing the suction power. The 
E5 has some advantages, like a larger dustbin and it comes with a remote.

One thing my sighted wife and I did with the S7 last night was that I told 
her when the S7 ran during the day, I'm not sure it covered our family room 
/ kitchen area. My wife was able to see from the map that for some reason it 
did skip this room. She was able to pull up the map of our downstairs and 
label each room. She also noticed that the S7 considered our entry way, 
dining room and family room as all one room. My wife was able to draw a 
boundary between the dining room and the family room and give them different 
labels. We were then able to send the S7 to clean just the family room / 
kitchen. I haven't done this yet, but I'm sure I can add Siri shortcuts to 
give the S7 commands to clean specific rooms.

Here's a good review of the differences between the E5 and the S5. The S5 
isn't the same as the S7, but this article will give you a good 
understanding of the differences between the E series and the S series.

I'm not really in the market for an E5 myself, but here's two links I found
rather quickly for the Roborock E5 at $200 or less.

Here's a link to Walmart with an E5 for $200.

RE: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-18 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
The major differences are that the S7 has LiDAR and better mapping and 
navigation support. The E5 has a camera and navigates by inertia. The S7 app 
also gives you access to more features, like changing the suction power. The E5 
has some advantages, like a larger dustbin and it comes with a remote.

One thing my sighted wife and I did with the S7 last night was that I told her 
when the S7 ran during the day, I'm not sure it covered our family room / 
kitchen area. My wife was able to see from the map that for some reason it did 
skip this room. She was able to pull up the map of our downstairs and label 
each room. She also noticed that the S7 considered our entry way, dining room 
and family room as all one room. My wife was able to draw a boundary between 
the dining room and the family room and give them different labels. We were 
then able to send the S7 to clean just the family room / kitchen. I haven't 
done this yet, but I'm sure I can add Siri shortcuts to give the S7 commands to 
clean specific rooms.

Here's a good review of the differences between the E5 and the S5. The S5 isn't 
the same as the S7, but this article will give you a good understanding of the 
differences between the E series and the S series.

I would avoid the e4 or e5 unless you have a really small place, those two 
don't use mapping, they are more random, I would get something from the Q

Re: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-17 Thread Kay Malmquist 
I know that the Roomba did as of ten years ago, so I can only assume that it 
still does.  As for the Roborock, I don't know, but I can't imagine not.

RE: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-17 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
Sure, the Roborock S7 MaxV is over $1000, but there are many models much 
cheaper than that. We didn't pay anywhere near $1K for our S7. I just Googled 
this, and I saw an E5 for $200.

Every robot vacuum that is currently available has drop sensors to prevent

RE: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-17 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
I did see this feature, i.e. detecting stairs, as a feature mentioned with 
specific models of robot vacuums, so I assumed if this feature wasn't 
specifically called out then the particular model wouldn't have it. It's good 
to know that my S7 has this feature. BTW, I did double check and indeed the S7 
has a sensor to detect stairs!

Re: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-17 Thread Mike Arrigo 
Every robot vacuum that is currently available has drop sensors to prevent 
falling down stairs so this should not be an issue, I would definitely go for a 
Roborock instead of a Roomba.

Re: does the roomba detect stairs?

2022-07-17 Thread Feliciano Godoy 
Hi,
It will fall off stairs if that’s what you’re asking. There are also external 
sensors that can be purchased to prevent this from happening. Mind you, you can 
always place a cane/broom on the floor by the stairs so that it doesn’t go past 
it as well.

Hi all I know how accessible the Roomba app is by readin the reviews but I
am wondering if it detects stairs? Since I live in a one bedroom upstairs
apt and if I was going to get this vacume or another one the roborocks one I
