More and more brands are getting into the home appliance business. is one of them, and today we are analyzing one of its flagship products, the Levant M1a smart vacuum capable of dodging objects.
design and buttons
This vacuum cleaner has the same design as other similar ones, with a round shape from which protrudes another cylinder in which the mapping laser is located.
It is striking that there are no less than three physical buttons, one to start cleaning, another to send the vacuum cleaner to the charging base and the last to perform a double pass in the area where it is. is at that time.
Also, it is strange to find a power button on the vacuum cleaner, like the one we have on radiators and heaters with a cable, for example. If we don’t press it, it won’t start charging on the base, even if we place it correctly.
In the lower part we see that the suction area moves, saving small steps such as those caused by carpets.
In addition to the necessary accessories, it includes two additional brushes and an additional HEPA filter, perfect when we have been using the standard brushes for a few months and want to change them. It also includes six disposable mops and one reusable that we can wash.
laser mapping
It measur es 9.4 cm, which is important if you have to go under furniture. In my case, it ran smoothly, although it got stuck several times in a spot where other vacuums tend to have problems as well.
It has several sensors, among which a fall sensor stands out, to prevent it from falling down the stairs if our house has them.
By mapping the house and returning to the charging base, it allows us to zone, saying which rooms there are to be able to clean one in particular, or several, but not the whole floor.
The best thing about its navigation is that, unlike other vacuums, it doesn’t bump into everything to rectify later, but it identifies that there is an object and most of the time it doesn’t bump into anything. . I say this because on some occasions, with the leg of a chair, it came to touch, but this has nothing to do with the other vacuum cleaners that I have analyzed.
The app is very complete
The first thing that caught my attention about this product was that neither the app nor the voices on the device were available in Spanish. It seems a little minor to me, which lives with Spanish and English, but it is a point against, since many rivals have this language.
It has the ability to save up to three maps, which is perfect if we have several floors or want to move it from our house on vacation.
In addition to using the app to control the vacuum cleaner or the physical buttons, we can link the app to Alexa and Google Home, which allows us to give voice commands comfortably.
En el proceso de configuración hemos tenido problemas, porque teníamos que meter la app de Tuya y nos pedía unos datos diferentes a los que nos daba la app de Lefant. Finalmente, tras mucho habar con soporte, hemos logrado vincularla y funciona bien con ambos asistentes de voz.
Aspirado y fregado
La limpieza la hace en zigzag, lo que permite ser más eficaz, aunque obviamente en ciertos sitios no es así porque intenta meterse por todos los rincones para poder limpiar lo mejor posible.
Una de las cosas que más me ha llamado la atención es que el sistema láser hace que no choque con cosas. Otras aspiradoras tienen una suerte de paragolpes que amortigua los impactos. Esta no. En ocasiones sí se choca, pero es algo raro ya que evita los objetos.
Al tener dos cepillos de recogida (algunas aspiradoras tienen solo uno) es más rápida y eficaz, y no tiene que pasar múltiples veces por el mismo sitio.
La opción de fregado es casi anecdótica, porque no limpia muy a fondo, y no es capaz de detectar alfombras para dejar de mojar el suelo si pasa encima de ellas. Eso sí, si se atasca sí que deja de echar agua, con lo que no creará un pequeño charco por error.
Autonomía
La batería de esta aspiradora, de litio ferro fosfato, es capaz de darnos una autonomía de 2 horas, suficiente para aspirar unos 150 metros cuadrados, más de lo necesario en la mayoría de ocasiones.
Además, si se queda sin batería, vuelve a la base de carga y reanuda la limpieza donde lo dejó.
El tiempo de carga es algo alto, de unas 5 horas, pero al estar siempre en la base no es un problema.
Conclusión
Esta aspiradora es similar a otras que hemos analizado en el pasado, pero tiene un precio extraño. Si vamos a Amazon veremos que el precio normal es de 499 dollars, mucho más alto de lo esperado.
La cuestión es que podemos usar un cupón de descuento de nada menos que 230 dollars, al menos en el momento de analizar este producto. Eso la deja con un precio de 269,99 dollars, ya en la línea de lo esperado para este tipo de aspiradoras láser. La oferta es hasta el 29 de marzo.
