Hardware

Height
96 mm
Width
352 mm
Depth
352 mm
Robot weight
3.4 kg
Sensors
LiDAR, line lasers and edge sensors support navigation; ultrasonic floor detection distinguishes surfaces. Piezo dust sensing changes suction in Auto mode only.
Connections
Maker app footnote requires a compatible phone, Bluetooth 4.0 and either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz Wi-Fi or mobile data. These phone requirements do not establish the robot's radio specification.
Size and weight
Robot 96 mm high, 352 mm wide and 352 mm long; maker robot weight 3.4 kg. Dock dimensions are listed separately.

Battery

Battery life (maker's claim)
Up to 120 minutes
Automatic dock return
Yes
Charging
Maker charging time 6.5 hours; automatic return to the charging dock.
Runtime conditions
Maker maximum 120 minutes; the exact mode and floor conditions are not published beside the claim.
Dock
Bagless self-emptying charging dock with eight cyclones; 481 mm high, 245 mm long and 245 mm wide. The current page's 47 kg dock weight appears inconsistent and is omitted pending clarification. A shared accessory description mentions washing and refilling, which are not applied to this dry-only robot.

Cleaning

Suction (maker's claim)
21,000 Pa
Mopping
No
Automatic emptying
Yes
Automatic mop washing
No
Navigation
LiDAR maps rooms; line lasers detect obstacles and edge sensors support wall following.
Cleaning
Twin-capture system combines a brush bar for larger debris with suction for fine particles. Anti-tangle brush bar and side sweeper collect hair; side sweeper extends 27 mm.
Suction conditions
Maker 21000 Pa in Powerful mode; not an independently measured result. Piezo automatic boost operates in Auto mode.
Dust capacity
Maker labels a 2.6 litre bin without identifying the robot or dock assembly. Dock storage claim is up to 90 days based on internal tests; cleaning frequency, debris and floors affect the period.
Obstacle clearance
Maker claims climbing raised areas up to 40 mm. The page does not distinguish a single threshold from a staged obstacle.
