Does the Lefant M210 mop as well as vacuum?
No, this is a vacuum-only robot. Lefant describes no water tank, mop pad or mopping function, so floors come out clean but not shiny and you will still need to mop. If mopping is what you need, look for a model Lefant sells as a combined vacuum and mop.
My M210 won't connect to the app. What should I check first?
Lefant addresses this directly: make sure you are using the new App-Lefant application rather than the older App-Lefant Life, which may no longer support this model correctly. An outdated app left over from a previous search or purchase is a common cause of pairing failures with smart home devices, so check the app name and update it before assuming a hardware fault.
How long does the battery actually last in real use?
Lefant quotes up to 120 minutes, but treat that as the ceiling: Lefant states it applies in low suction mode, so a higher power level or a larger floor area will drain the battery faster. Battery life also varies between units and declines over the life of the battery.
Will it hold up after a year or more of daily use?
Reliability is less consistent than cleaning performance. A known failure after about a year of daily running is a jammed drive wheel that leaves the robot spinning in place, a plausible wear point for any robot that runs unsupervised every day. Lefant's support responds quickly with repair instructions and replacement parts, so get in touch if a similar issue appears rather than assuming nothing can be done.
How strong is the suction?
Lefant pairs a digital motor with a brushless suction port, and you can change the suction level and cleaning direction in the app. It picks up a surprising amount of dust and dog hair, even from floors that looked clean. The standard setting can feel weak on a very dirty floor, so if the first run leaves debris behind, try a higher power level or run it a few times.
Is it actually good for pet hair on hard floors?
Yes. Pet hair pickup and cleaning on wood and hard floors are its strongest points, and Lefant recommends it for wood, hard floor and low pile carpet specifically. This is the use it suits best. On carpet, avoid zigzag mode, which Lefant says not to use there.
