What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Exceptional obstacle avoidance using front camera and 3D sensors, with options to fine-tune detection and avoid small objects reliably
- Strong lidar-based navigation that maps spaces accurately and returns to base consistently without getting lost
- Clean station automatically empties the dustbin into a disposable bag that holds debris for extended periods
Reviewers push back
- Tall and bulky body prevents cleaning under low furniture compared to competitors
- Soft brush roller tangles easily with long hair and requires scissors to clean out, taking several minutes
- No mopping function while competitors at similar price points offer vacuum-mop combos
Reviewers agree the Jet Bot AI+ excels at obstacle avoidance and navigation but lacks mopping capability and comes with a tall body that limits where it can clean.
Reviewers praise
- Dual counter-rotating brush rolls provide strong surface-level debris pickup on carpets, outperforming single-brush competitors in the same category
- Large 600-milliliter dustbin capacity with wide opening makes emptying easy
- Solid build quality with widely available replacement parts and accessories
Reviewers push back
- Random adaptive navigation makes it inefficient in larger homes and causes it to miss spots even in smaller rooms
- Poor performance with pet hair and long human hair on hard floors—most hair tangles on brushes rather than entering the bin
- Low airflow and suction result in weak crevice cleaning and poor deep carpet cleaning
Reviewers agree the Roomba 694 excels at surface cleaning on carpets and hard floors thanks to its dual brush rolls, but its random navigation and weak suction limit it to smaller spaces.
One reviewer found the soft roller ideal for hard floors but inadequate for carpet agitation, while another noted decent carpet performance overall
One reviewer found the noise tolerable while another noted it was considerably louder than competitors at equivalent settings
