Price history
Medion X42 SW+ specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.
Consumables: a 3 l dust bag in the station.
Dimensionsrobot and dock
From the published dimensions. The robot passes under furniture with 10 cm of clearance or more.
Suction and brushes 3 facts
- Suction power
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.
- 8,000 Pa
- Carpet detection
The robot notices when it drives onto a carpet. Most then raise their suction, and a mopping robot lifts its mop or leaves it at the dock.
- detects carpet and boosts suction
- Filter type
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.
- HEPA
Mopping 1 fact
- Water tank in the robot
How much clean water the robot carries. It sets how long it mops before a refill, which a dock does by itself.
- 300 ml
Dock 3 facts
- Empties the dust bin
The dock empties the robot’s dust bin, usually after every run. You only empty the dock’s bag or bin.
- yes
- Bagless
The dock collects dust in a bin instead of a disposable bag. No bags to buy, but you empty it yourself.
- no
- Dust bag capacity
How much the dust bag in the dock holds.
- 3 l
Navigation and obstacles 3 facts
- Navigation
How the robot maps your home and follows that map. Lidar measures with a laser and works in the dark, a camera looks along and recognises more.
- LiDAR turret
- No-go zones
How you keep the robot out of a place: a zone you draw in the app, a virtual wall or a magnetic strip on the floor.
- zones in the app
- Room-by-room cleaning
You pick one or more rooms on the map in the app, and the robot cleans only those.
- yes
Robot 5 facts
- Robot height
How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.
- 9.8 cm
- Robot diameter
How wide the robot is. Narrower gets between chair legs more easily, wider usually means a bigger dust bin.
- 35 cm
- Robot weight
What the robot weighs. It counts most if you carry it up a staircase every day.
- 3.24 kg
- Dust bin in the robot
How much dust the robot holds before you empty it. It matters less with an auto-empty dock, which empties the bin after every run.
- 300 ml
- Noise
The noise in decibels, in the setting its source names: makers mostly give the standard setting, shops often the highest. 65 dB is like a vacuum at half power, 55 dB like a conversation.
- 72 dB
Battery 1 fact
- Runtime per charge
How long the robot cleans on one charge, at its quietest setting. After that it recharges and carries on where it stopped.
- 240 min
Smart features and warranty 3 facts
- Voice assistants
Which voice assistants the robot works with, such as Google Assistant or Alexa.
- Alexa, Google Assistant
- Warranty
The warranty the maker gives in Germany. Consumer law here stands apart from it and can last longer.
