- Activated Carbon Filter: Eliminates odors (e.g., from cat litter) with a removal rate of over 99.9%.

The unit operates quietly at a minimum noise level of 28 dB, especially in Sleep mode. Higher fan speeds are available for rapid purification but may increase noise.

The Lefant app enhances control, allowing users to view air quality, adjust fan speeds, set timers, and monitor filter life. Basic operations can also be performed directly on the unit.
Comparison to Other Brands
The A1 Pro holds a competitive edge against brands like Xiaomi, Airthereal, and Levoit, boasting superior design and functionality. Its 360° rotation and floor suction capabilities set it apart, especially for households with pets.
