Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about LEFANT P1

  • Ultra-compact design: it’s one of the smallest robot vacuums on the market, perfect for slipping under furniture
  • Excellent hair handling: the brushless suction inlet prevents long hair from tangling
  • Built-in security camera: allows you to monitor your home via app
  • Smooth navigation and obstacle detection: uses Freemove3.0 technology to avoid jams
  • Strong hard-floor suction: effectively removes dust

What customers don't like about LEFANT P1

  • Limited mopping function: the cloth is more of a handy accessory than a true alternative to a mop
  • Carpet performance: less effective on long-pile carpets, better suited for hard surfaces

Verdict

The Lefant P1 is a highly compact robot vacuum cleaner measuring just 25 cm in diameter and 8 cm in height, engineered specifically for pet-centric households. It operates with a powerful 5500Pa brushless suction nozzle that completely avoids hair tangling, pairs with dual side brushes, features a 500 ml dustbin, and integrates a unique HD pet security camera with night vision and two-way audio intercom. Main advantages include an exceptional battery life of up to 230 minutes, ultra-quiet 55-decibel operation, a scratch-resistant IML face cover, and robust smart controls via the Lefant App, Alexa, and Google Assistant. However, its specialized brushless suction-only port makes it less effective at deep-cleaning medium-to-high pile carpets, it relies on basic physical magnetic strips rather than advanced digital mapping for setting no-go zones, and it does not travel underneath low-clearance furniture as much as some flatter competitors.
