iRobot Roomba 780 Review
The Roomba 780 review will cover iRobots top of the line self vacuuming robot. We will cover what sets the vacuum apart as well as other features that it shares with lower priced Roomba vacuums. We want to provide you with the information you need to decide if the Roomba 780 is right for you, or if another roomba would better suit your purposes.
What Sets the Roomba 780 Apart
The primary feature differentiating the iRobot Roomba 780 from other roomba vacuums is it’s room to room navigation feature. Room to room navigation allows you to identify the specific rooms in your house. By doing so, the roomba makes sure it has entirely cleaned one room of the house before moving on to the next.
The Roomba 780 is also the only available iRobot vacuum available with a touch pad interface. This eliminates all other buttons on the Roomba. The touch pad interface uses state of the art technology to provide the users with an easy to understand visual interface, making the roomba even easier to use than it already is.
Advanced technology identifies area of the floor which are dirtier and need “special attention” from you Roomba 780. Direct Detect Dirt 2, also available on the Roomba 770, finds areas that could use extra cleaning and instructs the vacuum to spending additional time cleaning there. This is excellent for cleaning up after pets. It is also a great feature for making sure that walkways get the extra attention that they need.
Roomba 780 700 series features
All Roomba 700 series vacuums share common features that set them apart from other vacuums. Once of the big differences is the dual Hepa Filter filtration system. It allows the Roomba 780 to trap dust particles as small as 0.3 microns. This is key for people with allergies. The dual hepa filter filtration system will trap 99.97% of allergens and dust particles. This will prevent allergy attacks that are often associated with blow back from vacuum cleaners. Some confusion has been caused because some companies offer “hepa filters” for the 500 and 600 series Roomba vacuums. It is important to note that these vacuums are NOT hepa certified and are not guaranteed to provide the same quality filtration.
The Roomba 780 along with all 700 series Roombas use the AreoVac Bin 2 as it’s primary collection container. It allows the Roomba 780 to clean more surface area before it needs to be emptied. This is especially help full for people with carpets or rugs. They tend to shed fuzzy parts which can quickly fill the standard sized roomba bin. People with pets that shed will also greatly appreciate the additional storage of the AeroVac bin 2, holding more pet hair than the standard bin.
The Roomba 780 also shares the same unique features seen in lower models that sets the Roomba line apart from other vacuum cleaning systems. It supports features form daily scheduling. This allows you to run the vacuum at times most convenient for you and your family. For example, many people choose to run their vacuum when they are at work, or while they are sleeping.
After a long day of diligent vacuuming the Roomba 780 will need to recharge. But, don’t worry it won’t take any effort on your part. Once the vacuum senses that it’s battery is getting low it will seek out its docking stating for a recharge. Once it’s recharged it will be ready to go right back to work.
Given the additional features of the Roomba 780. The highly effective Debris pick up and dual hepa filtration system, and extra large storage bin makes the Roomba 780 the ideal iRobot vacuum for anyone wanting maximum clean with minimum effort.
