iRobot Roomba i3 has a width of 337mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that the robot vacuum can effectively 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 i3 with a difference of 57.6mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room.
iRobot Roomba i3's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. Lefant M210P, at 73.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i3 by 18.3mm.
When selecting a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can fit under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i3's battery power is 1,800mAh
Lefant M210P, at mAh2,000
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge.
The operating time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging. iRobot Roomba i3's operating time is 1.25h
Lefant M210P, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i3 by 0.75h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. iRobot Roomba i3 has a charge time of 5h, 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
spends lesser time charging than the iRobot Roomba i3 with a difference of only 1h. 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.
