For anyone wanting a mapping robot for a small home with mostly hard floors, and happy to empty the bin by hand, it covers the basics.
The Lefant M1 is a robot vacuum and mop on a plain charging base: lidar navigation, up to 5,500 Pa of suction, a 160-millilitre electronically controlled water tank that wets a mop pad, and a HEPA filter. The robot is 95 millimetres tall, with a stated 150 minutes of runtime and 67 decibels.
The app maps the home and takes no-go zones and schedules, the robot resumes where it stopped after recharging, cliff sensors keep it off the stairs, and Alexa and Google Assistant can start it.
None of our test sources has tested the M1, so all of this rests on the stated figures. There is no station to empty the bin, and nothing on record says the pad lifts on carpet.
Based on the maker's specifications and our price data; none of our test sources has tested this model.
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.

Suction in pascal, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot picks grit off a hard floor.

Whether the robot copes with pet hair: a brush that hair does not wind around and a dock that empties the bin for you. Where the maker does not say so itself, we read it from those two.

The filter the exhaust air passes through. A HEPA filter holds back fine dust and pollen, which counts if someone at home has an allergy.
