                The Roomba I7 has the same motor as the Roomba 980, but it has longer rollers that iRobot says will help pick up larger chunks of dirt. Liam McCabe (The Wirecutter) says that these rollers (or extractors) are excellent at digging hair from carpet versus a blade and brush design found in the older Roomba 675 or 690.Nov 4, 2020
