The iRobot Roomba 698's dustbin capacity is at 0.6L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it can be emptied. The Lefant M210P, at 0.5L
carries less dirt than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of only 0.1L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should be based on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Most robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dustbin is full and needs to be emptied.
iRobot Roomba 698 supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged which means performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied. Lefant M210P also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to indicate that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it reduces the need for constant monitoring. iRobot Roomba 698 weighs 3kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability.
The Lefant M210P, at 1.2kg
is lighter than the iRobot Roomba 698 by 1.8kg. It's important to consider the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
iRobot Roomba 698 has a width of 340mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can properly clean in a single pass. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a room
Lefant M210P, at 279.4mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 60.6mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba 698's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with limited clearance in your home.
Lefant M210P, at 73.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 18.3mm. When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can go under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging.
iRobot Roomba 698's operating time is 1.5h
Lefant M210P, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 0.5h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba 698 has a charge time of 2h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle. Lefant M210P, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba 698 with a difference of 2h.
Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum begins its next cleaning cycle. This feature is designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when specific conditions occur. iRobot Roomba 698 has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation.
Also, Lefant M210P has this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a valuable addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process. iRobot Roomba 698 has a dirt sensor, dirt sensors are designed to detect the concentration of dirt, dust, or debris in the room being cleaned and can be used to adjust the vacuum's cleaning behavior during cleaning cycle. iRobot Roomba 698 has carpet detection, which allows the vacuum to identify and adapt to different floor surfaces, specifically recognizing when it transitions from hard floors like hardwood to areas with carpets.
iRobot Roomba 698 supports a smartphone app, that allows you to control and monitor the vacuum without getting to it physically but through your smartphone or tablet. Both the Lefant M210P and iRobot Roomba 698 have mobile application support, mobile apps enhance the user experience by providing convenience, and ease update of features and functionalities.
