A robot vacuum's ability to create a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space. Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, 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. The Lefant M210P also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation involves how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate 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 route, this allwos 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 better understanding of its environment, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many robot vacuum cleaners and the iRobot Roomba i7 supports this feature.
These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up to prevent the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle.

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 one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
The 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, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. iRobot Roomba i7's height measures 92mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is a key 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 i7 by 18.3mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can go 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. It is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), iRobot Roomba i7's battery power is 1,800mAh
The Lefant M210P, at mAh2,000
has more battery power than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete operations with fewer 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 be recharged.
iRobot Roomba i7's operating time is 1.25h
The Lefant M210P, at 2h
lasts more than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 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. Lefant M210P, at 4h
charges for longer than the iRobot Roomba i7 with a difference of 2h.
