Price history
TP-Link Tapo RV20 Max specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.
TP-Link · on the market since October 2024
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.
- 5,300 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 6 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.
- no
- Washes the mop
The dock washes the mop for you, so you do not rinse it by hand.
- no
- Dries the mop
The dock dries the mop afterwards, so it does not sit there wet and start to smell.
- no
- Hot-air drying
Drying is done with warm air instead of cold. It is faster and it helps against smell.
- no
- Dispenses detergent
The dock mixes detergent into the water itself, from its own bottle.
- no
- Plumbing hookup
The dock can be connected to the tap and the drain, so you never fill or empty a tank. It does need a connection nearby.
- no
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.
- built-in LiDAR, no 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.
- 22 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, virtual walls
- 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 2 facts
- Robot height
How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.
- 8.3 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.
- 300 ml
Battery 2 facts
- 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.
- 180 min
- Charging time
How long an empty battery takes to charge fully in the dock.
- 4 h
Smart features and warranty 2 facts
- Voice assistants
Which voice assistants the robot works with, such as Google Assistant or Alexa.
- Alexa, Google Assistant
- Scheduled runs
You set days and times, and the robot starts by itself, also when you are not at home.
- yes
