Compact scrubber decision tool

Compare four compact autonomous scrubbers in minutes

Get the comparable specs, practical tradeoffs, and a same-route validation checklist you can use with every finalist.

Start here: a 3-minute shortlist

  1. 1

    Measure the route

    Record the narrowest passage, turns, doors, thresholds, and fixed obstacles.

  2. 2

    Compare the cleaning job

    Match required functions, tank capacity, runtime, and route area to each candidate.

  3. 3

    Demo the finalists

    Run each finalist on the same route, then compare the complete proposal on the same scope.

At-a-glance specifications

Compare the same published fields across all four candidates. Manufacturer maximum productivity is theoretical; validate real coverage on your route.

What the differences mean

CenoBots L3

Scrubbing-focused candidate with WS3, WT3, and TS3 support equipment priced separately.

Validate: Compare the published RFM expectation and complete support-equipment proposal against the measured route.

Pudu CC1

Published record combines scrubbing, sweeping, and vacuuming in one candidate.

Validate: Confirm which functions the route actually requires and test the refill, drain, and recovery workflow.

Gausium Phantas

Published record combines three cleaning functions with a 13.0-inch scrubbing width.

Validate: Test clearance, route time, and refill frequency together rather than judging width alone.

Nilfisk SC25

Published record combines scrubbing and sweeping with a three-hour runtime; minimum passage width is not published here.

Validate: Measure every clearance and confirm runtime, charging, and route recovery during the demo.

Use this decision checklist

Mark each item pass or fail for every candidate and keep the route and proposal scope identical.

  1. 1.Clearance: Does the robot pass the narrowest route point and complete every turn with operating clearance?
  2. 2.Job and functions: Does it perform the cleaning functions your floor and debris profile require?
  3. 3.Area per fill: Does a measured demo show acceptable route coverage before refill and drain?
  4. 4.Obstacle and recovery demo: Does it recover acceptably when carts, chairs, doors, or displays change?
  5. 5.Complete commercial scope: Does the proposal clearly include or exclude the robot, station, deployment, training, software, maintenance, and service?

Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the CenoBots L3?

Published robot and accessory pricing is available after sign-in. The compatible WS3 workstation is priced separately. Final project pricing depends on deployment scope, support, and accessories.

How should I compare these compact scrubbers for a narrow route?

Start with each robot’s published overall dimensions and minimum passable width, then verify doors, turns, thresholds, and operating clearance during the same measured route demo.

What should every same-route demo prove?

Use the same route and cleaning task for every finalist. Record area per fill, obstacle recovery, route completion, refill and drain workflow, and any operator intervention.

What should a complete proposal include?

Compare the robot, compatible station or support equipment, deployment, training, software access, preventive maintenance, service response, and exclusions on the same commercial scope.
