Roomba released i3 and i7 at the same time, but why? Because sometimes technological advances can be overkill and increase the price. Of course no one wants to pay more money for the features that they don’t even need. We can easily say that Roomba i3 is the purified robot vacuum with advanced technology. Of course same suction power with i7 (x10 suction power) Roomba’s signature Dual Multi-Surface Rubber Brushes (which makes a great option if you are dealing with pet hair) and patented Dirt Detect Technology will help you to get the maximum performance. Beside those, Reactive Sensor Technology offers less getting stuck on furniture and more knowing where to go. Learning your cleaning habits and giving some recommendations like ‘extra cleaning during allergy season’ makes you realize that Roomba i3 is the real deal. If you have a busy schedule and you don’t want to spend time emptying your robot after every cleaning, you can also purchase Automatic Dirt Disposal unit with i3. That means, your robot vacuum can clean itself up to 60 days without your help. Of course like other new generation robot vacuums Roomba i3 can also be integrated with Braava Jet M6 robot mop and can provide full cleaning service mopping after vacuuming.
