Facts as the maker states them. A dash means the maker does not name it. Each model’s page gives the source of every fact. Noise is the maker’s own figure, so we do not judge it, and a customer rating only counts from 20 reviews. * Foreign shop: delivery cost and VAT to the Netherlands estimated.
Proscenic Q8 Max specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.
Proscenic · on the market since November 2024
Consumables: a 3 l dust bag in the station, which lasts up to 60 days.
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.
- 6,000 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
- Mop type
How the mop is built: flat pads, two spinning discs or a roller. Discs press harder on dried-on dirt, a roller rinses itself while it works.
- flat or vibrating pad
Dock 4 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
- Dust bag lasts
How long the maker says a dust bag lasts with daily use. With pets or a lot of carpet it is shorter.
- up to 60 days
Navigation and obstacles 5 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
- Climbs thresholds up to
The highest threshold the robot takes, as the maker states it. Measure your own: the step into a bathroom or onto a balcony is often higher.
- 15 mm
- 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
- Recharge and resume
When the battery runs low in the middle of a run, the robot recharges and then carries on where it stopped.
- yes
- Stair-edge sensors
Sensors under the robot that see a drop, so it stops at the top of a staircase instead of falling down it.
- yes
Robot 3 facts
- Robot height
How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.
- 9.7 cm
- 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.
- 350 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.
- 64 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.
- 200 min
