A robot vacuum's ability to generate a digital map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space. This can be used for several purposes, e.g.
the iRobot Roomba i7 having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. Lefant M210P also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't.
iRobot Roomba i7 has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's path, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Lefant M210P has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature found on many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and the iRobot Roomba i7 is one of them.
These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Many modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the iRobot Roomba i7 are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which means that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands.

iRobot Roomba i7 has a width of 338mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum can properly clean in a single pass.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a space
Lefant M210P, at 279.4mm
measures less in width than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 58.6mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba i7's height measures 92mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with limited clearance in your home. Lefant M210P, at 73.7mm
measures less in height than the iRobot Roomba i7 by 18.3mm. When choosing 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge. Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7's battery power is 1,800mAh
Lefant M210P, at mAh2,000
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 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 prefer the robot vacuum to complete operations with less interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the iRobot Roomba i7 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 i7's operating time is 1.25h
Lefant M210P, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 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 i7 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. The Lefant M210P, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 2h.
Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
