iRobot Roomba 960 vs iRobot Roomba 675

Roomba 675 vs 960: Classic App-Controlled Robotic Cleaners For a Budget Price

Our Roomba 960 vs 675 review will shed some light on two low-cost models from one of the most popular iRobot's lines—Roomba. Both of these models have a similar, disc-shaped design, can clean all types of floor, can be controlled via an app, work with Alexa, can connect to Wi-Fi, and so on. Nonetheless, the 960 is a newer and more advanced model, so, obviously, the cleaners have some fundamental differences (for example, unlike its competitor, the Roomba 675 comes without a virtual wall barrier).

Suction and dustbin capacity

In this segment of the Roomba 675 vs 960 battle, the last model appears to be an absolute winner. The 960 has a more powerful suction level (600 Pa versus 900 Pa) and that is more than half as large (the 675 has 350ml, and the 960 features 750ml capacity).

Using area

The difference between the models I compare isn't drastic when it comes to using area: the distinction is only 300 square feet. However, the 675 turns out to be a winner here, capable of cleaning an area of 1800 square feet, while the 960 specs mark that the max cleaning area that can be handled by this model is 1500 square feet.

Noise level

Testing the Roomba 675 vs Roomba 960 noise level, I was startled to discover that the 675 is noisier, while being a less powered model. However, the difference isn't significant (61 dB vs 65 dB), but it exists.

Carpet cleaning

The iRobot Roomba 675 vs 960 carpet cleaning comparison gives the victory to the second model. Although both devices have the same multi-surface brush and employ the same three-stage cleaning methodology, the Roomba 960 is superior at carpet cleaning because of its stronger suction.
