Functional capabilities

A robot vacuum cleaner will be an excellent assistant for cleaning small rooms up to 50 m²Cleaning is performed automatically, with a maximum duration of one hour. Thanks to its soft bumper and three pairs of obstacle sensors, the Genio robot will avoid rough collisions with surrounding objects, won't damage or scratch your furniture, and will remain safe and sound.

The suction compartment is standard, but there's no central brush. The design and placement of the side brushes is well thought out; they're twisted differently (the brushes are labeled as left and right). This allows you to pick up debris along baseboards and in corners, as well as thoroughly clean around the legs of sofas, tables, and chairs.

Thanks to the anti-fall sensors located at the bottom of the body, the Genio Lite 120 robot vacuum cleaner can be safely left in high places and used for cleaning on the second floor without fear of it falling down the stairs and tipping over.

The robot vacuum's dust container holds 200 ml, enough for one cleaning. Afterward, the container should be removed, emptied, and rinsed. A dust cover is located inside to prevent dust and debris from escaping. The container is bagless.

The robot doesn't come with a charging base, so you must charge it manually. To do this, plug the power adapter into a power outlet. Charging takes four hours. The Genio Lite 120 operates at a noise level of just 45 dB. This means it won't distract you from your work or disturb your rest.
