Where are the differences?

The DEEBOT T9+ robot vacuum cleaner differs a few points from the Roborock S5 Max. Let's go into the differences in detail.

release date (release)

The age of the two vacuum cleaner robots is of course interesting in the comparison. After all, there are changes in technology every year. There are 2 years between the releases of the two models. The ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ was launched in the year 2021. Thus, the Roborock S5 Max is older with the year of release 2019.

Which robot vacuum cleaner is falcher?

When it comes to the technical specifications of a robot vacuum cleaner, height is especially important. The height of the vacuum robot is interesting in comparison. At 9.36 cm, the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ is built more hawkishly and thus performs better. The flatter the robot is, the better it can clean under cabinets, the couch or other furniture. The Roborock S5 Max is higher with a device height of 9.6 cm.

Vacuum power comparison

The vacuum power is decisive for the suction power and is specified in Pascal (pa). In comparison, ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ vs Roborock S5 Max, the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ with 2000 pa has a higher suction power and thus performs better. The suction power of the Roborock S5 Max is 2000 pa. This is the suction power at the highest suction level, i.e. the maximum suction power. The higher it is, the better a robot vacuum cleaner can suck.

Does the battery performance differ?

The ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ is ahead in the battery life comparison with 2,9 hours. The Roborock S5 Max has a battery life of 2,5 hours. Of course, a longer battery life means that the robot vacuum cleaner can clean longer at a stretch without having to return to the charging station. This has a positive effect on the square meters vacuumed.

What can the apps do?

Numerous vacuum robots can now be programmed and also controlled via apps. Adjustable are, for example, premises, maps as well as running times. Some suction robots can then be started conveniently on the go. For both vacuum robots, the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ and the Roborock S5 Max, there is an App. The two vacuum robots are addressed and programmed with different apps. The app for the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ is called ECOVACS Home App. The name for the app of the Roborock S5 Max was Roborock. Both vacuum robots allow zone cleaning via the app. Thus, only certain areas are cleaned without having to set up additional obstacles.

Voice control

Many robotic vacuum cleaners can now be controlled by voice assistants, allowing for convenient operation.

The two vacuum robots can be operated with Amazon's Alexa voice control. The ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ has voice control with Google Assistant, unlike the Roborock S5 Max.

Is there a wipe function?

In addition to the pure suction function, some vacuum robots also have an integrated wiping function. This combines two devices in one and the cleaning performance is significantly increased - not to mention the time saved. The models are then called suction-wiping robots.

The both vacuum robots can feature an integrated wiping function and are thus both wiping robots. With the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+*, there is a vibrating wiping plate as a special feature. This creates scrubbing. This removes dirt better and thus leads to a better cleaning result. The pure wiping function without vibration has not shown good cleaning result in most suction-wiping robots. Basically, the mop is just dragged across the floor.

The water tank of the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ is smaller with 180 ml. The capacity of the tank of the Roborock S5 Max is larger with 290 ml. This is a disadvantage for ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+.

Which vacuum motor has the larger collection tank?

The dust chamber of the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+ with 420 ml is smaller than that of the Roborock S5 Max with 460 ml. The larger the dirt collection bin, the less frequently it needs to be emptied. So the larger capacity in the dust bin is an advantage for the Roborock S5 Max.

For the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9+* there is an additional suction station for self-drainage. This empties the collection container, which means you have to remove the dirt less often. There is no suction station for the Roborock S5 Max.
