Pros & cons
Lefant N3
- ✓True LiDAR + dToF navigation with no-go zones and spot cleaning via the app
- ✓Sonic mopping technology tackles dried stains better than a passive drag mop
- ✓Ultrasonic carpet detection auto-boosts suction and avoids over-wetting rugs
- ✓4 adjustable suction levels up to 4000 Pa
- ✓Works in full darkness since it doesn't rely on a camera
- ✓Alexa/Google Assistant and app scheduling included
- ✗No self-empty dock — just a basic charging base, so the 450ml bin needs manual emptying
- ✗Small 160ml water tank needs frequent refills on larger homes
- ✗No physical mop lift — the pad changes direction near carpet rather than lifting off it
- ✗Multi-floor map storage isn't confirmed in Lefant's own listing
- ✗No published HEPA/filtration rating or noise level
iLife A30 Pro
- ✓Self-empty dock with a long 280-day/5-bag hands-free rating
- ✓Combined dustbin/water tank vacuums and mops simultaneously, no manual swapping
- ✓LDS LiDAR + SLAM mapping with no-go zones and virtual walls via app
- ✓Up to 10,000 Pa suction and 150-minute runtime with auto-resume after recharge
- ✓Removable mop holder for true vacuum-only mode when needed
- ✓Under $250 for a self-empty LiDAR mapping robot
- ✗iLife doesn't state whether the mop pad lifts or is avoided on carpet — a real risk with a shared vac/mop tank
- ✗Small 200ml shared tank means frequent refills/emptying on larger homes
- ✗No auto mop washing or heated water at the dock
- ✗2.4GHz WiFi only
- ✗No published dustbin/tank breakdown beyond the combined 200ml figure, weight, or dimensions
- ✗iLife has far less established US ownership history than Roborock, Eufy, or Roomba
