Bosch Spotless + specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the store we read it from.
Bosch · on the market since September 2025
Consumables: no dust bags to buy, the station collects the dust in a bin.
Dimensionsrobot and dock
From the published dimensions. The robot passes under furniture with 3.8 in of clearance or more. The dock needs a spot 14 in wide and 17.8 in deep.
Suction and brushes 4 facts
- Suction power
Among the models we track
11,000 Pa on this model
Lowest
450 Pa Highest

6,000 PaHigher than 710 of the 998 models we track.
When it matters
- Deep-pile carpet and rugs, where dust sinks in.
- Pet hair, sand and crumbs trodden into fibers.
When it matters less
- On hard floors the gain from a higher figure is small: the dust lies on top.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 25
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.
- 11,000 Pa
- Anti-tangle brush
529 of the 557 models we track have this.
When it matters
- Long hair and pet hair, which wrap around a bristle brush.
- Homes where you would rather not cut hair off the brush.
When it matters less
- Short hair and few pets hardly tangle anyway.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 28
A brush that guides hair to the side instead of letting it wind around the shaft. It saves the cutting work in homes with long hair or pets.
- yes
- Extending side brush
When it matters
- Corners and edges along baseboards, where a round robot leaves a strip of dust.
- Rooms with many walls and furniture edges.
When it matters less
- In open rooms with few corners it adds little.
Source: bosch-home.nl · checked on Oct 10
The side brush swings out in a corner or along a baseboard, so the dust there is swept in too. On this model: Assumed, not a stated fact: the maker's full specification does not name it, so we take it as no.
- no (assumed)
- Suitable for pet hair
When it matters
- Dogs and cats that shed.
- Long-haired pets, whose hair wraps around a brush.
When it matters less
- Without pets, ordinary hair and dust need nothing special.
Source: derived, no source of its own · checked on Oct 2
Whether the robot copes with pet hair: a brush that hair does not wind around and a dock that empties the bin for you. Where the maker does not say so itself, we read it from those two.
- yes
Mopping 5 facts
- Mop type
When it matters
- Homes with a lot of hard floor that you want mopped, not just wiped.
- Dried-on dirt in a kitchen, which spinning pads or a roller scrub off better than a dragged cloth.
When it matters less
- If you only vacuum, the mop’s build decides nothing.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 26
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
- Mop extends to the edges
When it matters
- Kitchens and hallways where dirt gathers along the baseboard.
- Homes with many corners and table legs.
When it matters less
- In open rooms the strip it leaves along the wall is small.
Source: bosch-home.nl · checked on Oct 10
The pad slides out along a wall or a baseboard, so the last few inches are mopped as well. On this model: Assumed, not a stated fact: the maker's full specification does not name it, so we take it as no.
- no (assumed)
- Automatic mop detach
When it matters
- Homes with carpets or rugs that should stay dry.
- High-pile rugs that no mop lift clears.
When it matters less
- Without carpets the mop can stay on.
Source: bosch-home.nl · checked on Oct 10
The robot leaves the mop at the dock before it vacuums a carpet, so the carpet never gets wet. On this model: Assumed, not a stated fact: the maker's full specification does not name it, so we take it as no.
- no (assumed)
- Mop refreshed while mopping
When it matters
- Large hard floors, where a mop that is never rinsed spreads dirt around.
- Kitchens with sticky spills.
When it matters less
- In a small home the mop does not get dirty enough in one run for it to matter.
Source: bosch-home.nl · checked on Oct 28
The robot returns to the dock during a run to rinse the mop, instead of pushing dirty water around. On this model: Assumed, not a stated fact: the maker's full specification does not name it, so we take it as no.
- no (assumed)
- Water tank in the robot
When it matters
- Large hard floors mopped in one go.
- A robot whose dock does not refill it during a run.
When it matters less
- With a dock that refills the robot during the run, the tank’s size hardly matters.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 28
How much clean water the robot carries. It sets how long it mops before a refill, which a dock does by itself.
- 220 ml
Dock 3 facts
- Empties the dust bin
When it matters
- Pets, sand or a large home, which fill the bin every run.
- Dust allergy, since you rarely touch the dust yourself.
When it matters less
- In a small home with little dust, emptying the bin by hand takes a moment.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 25
The dock empties the robot’s dust bin, usually after every run. You only empty the dock’s bag or bin.
- yes
- Bagless
When it matters
- Not wanting to buy bags again and again.
- Pets, whose hair fills a bag quickly.
When it matters less
- With a dust allergy a sealed bag keeps the dust in when you throw it away, so bagless is no gain.
Source: bosch-home.nl · checked on Sep 28
The dock collects dust in a bin instead of a disposable bag. No bags to buy, but you empty it yourself.
- yes
- Dock size (w × d × h)
When it matters
- A small hallway or a niche where the dock has to fit.
- Placing the dock under a cabinet or a counter.
When it matters less
- Along an open wall with room to spare it decides little.
Source: Spec sheet · checked on Sep 28
The width, depth and height of the dock. Measure the spot you have in mind, and leave room for the lid and for the robot driving in.
- 14 × 17.8 × 15 in (35.6 × 45.1 × 38 cm)
Navigation and obstacles 4 facts
- Navigation
When it matters
- Several rooms, where a map lets you send the robot to one of them.
- Cleaning in the dark, which lidar does and a camera alone does not.
When it matters less
- In one open room even simple navigation covers the floor.

When it matters
- Cables, socks and toys left on the floor.
- Pets, whose accidents a robot should steer around.
When it matters less
- In a home that is tidied before each run it matters less.

When it matters
- A robot without a self-emptying dock, which you empty by hand.
- Pets and long hair, which fill a small bin within one run.

Source: bol.com · checked on Oct 28
The noise in decibels while cleaning, in the setting its source names: makers mostly give the standard setting, stores often the highest. 65 dB is like a vacuum at half power, 55 dB like a conversation. Emptying by the dock is louder and listed on its own.

When it matters less
- If the maker’s app is all you use, it adds nothing.
