iRobot Roomba 761 vs iRobot Roomba 650

Roomba 761 vs 650 – Enough Power to Remove the Oldest Dirt

The following review deals with the Roomba vacuum cleaners that have batteries with the same life of 120 minutes and are fitted with sensors to prevent falling down the stairs and collisions with furniture and other obstacles. The vacuums make several passes on the dirtiest areas thanks to the branded Dirt Detect sensors. So, the Roomba 761 vs 650 comparison aim to find the unique features of each of the models.

Suction and dustbin capacity

The cleaning test of iRobot 761 vs 650 has shown that both models clean every room in a house, no matter what type of floor covering is. They have 3-stage cleaning based on AeroVac technology meaning enough power to pick up and vacuum the dirt, and then to eliminate the remaining and the most stubborn particles. This robotic vacuum can adjust itself depending on the surface, overcoming thresholds from, for example, tile/hardwood to a carpet.

Both models have a low dustbin capacity of 2 cups.

Using area

It’s not easy to compare the iRobot Roomba 761 vs 650 concerning using area since the manufacturer doesn’t state the 761’s parameters. In practice, this model handles 600 ft2 of space per one cleaning cycle insofar as there are just a few rugs in the room. At the same time, the 650 covers 800 ft2.

Noise level

The noise check of Roomba 650 vs 761 has proved the 761’s claimed 55 dB. The device really works quietly without disturbing kids and neighbors. The 650 is rather noisy, producing 68 dB at its peak power.

Carpet cleaning

The difference between the two models in carpet cleaning quality is not visible. Both of them completely remove such large particles as a cereal on low- and medium-pile carpets but leave some pet hair and small litter (rice, sugar, etc.) there. These robots are not designed for cleaning high-pile carpets.
