Key Features
Maps Big Floor AreasLiDAR, a front camera sensor, and multiple obstacle sensors help this robotic vacuum map up to 5 rooms totaling more than 100,000 square feet. That matters in offices, showrooms, and other large hard-floor spaces where random cleaning wastes time. Long Cordless CoverageWith two 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries, the unit delivers up to 200 minutes of operation and can clean about 5,380 square feet of hard flooring. Less stopping to recharge means better fit for routine commercial floor maintenance. Commercial Robot Vacuum CleanupA three-stage cleaning system with side brushes, main brush, and vacuum suction handles both larger debris and fine dust. The HEPA filter and large 3.1-quart dust box make this smart robotic vacuum practical for real commercial cleaning cycles, not just touch-up work.
Overview
The Makita DRC300PT 18V X2 LXT Brushless Cordless Smart Robotic HEPA Filter Vacuum Kit (5.0Ah) is a cordless robotic vacuum built for large hard-floor cleaning in commercial spaces. This is a robotic HEPA filter vacuum designed for automated floor cleaning in offices, retail areas, and other wide indoor spaces. Model Number DRC300PT. If you want scheduled, repeatable cleanup without tying up a crew member, this is the kind of machine that makes sense.
What separates this unit from basic robot vacuums is how it handles larger, more complex spaces. Makita built it with LiDAR sensor technology, a front camera sensor, and multiple obstacle sensors so it can map and save up to five rooms totaling over 100,000 square feet. It gives you two navigation options: Mapping Pattern Navigation for more efficient cleaning of registered spaces, and Free Mode when you need immediate cleaning without setting up a room first. That flexibility is useful in commercial environments where some spaces are fixed and others change day to day.
Runtime is one of the big reasons to step up to this model. The DRC300PT operates on Makita 18V LXT batteries, using one battery with the option to insert a second for longer run time. With two 5.0Ah batteries, it can run up to 200 minutes and clean approximately 5,380 square feet of hard floor surfaces. For maintenance crews, that means fewer interruptions and enough cordless coverage to handle meaningful square footage in a single session.
The cleaning system is set up for real debris, not just dust. Makita uses a three-stage setup with side brushes, a main brush, and vacuum suction. There are also two cleaning modes: Main Brush Only for larger debris, and Main Brush Plus Vacuum for larger debris and smaller particles together. The side brushes help pull material away from walls, corners, and obstacles, while the wide cleaning path improves productivity in open areas.
From a maintenance standpoint, Makita kept the daily upkeep straightforward. The cleaning components are removable and fully washable, and the dust box is easy to access from the top of the unit. Capacity is a strong point here too, with a 3.1-quart, 0.79-gallon debris box sized for commercial applications. HEPA filtration helps capture micro dust particulates, which matters in indoor settings where air quality and fine dust control are part of the job.
Jobsite practicality is better than you usually get from a robotic floor cleaner. The unit includes automatic homing, so it returns when cleaning is complete or battery charge gets low. A remote control lets you manage key operating functions wirelessly, including the location beacon, which helps you find the machine by sound and flashing onboard light. The sound-absorbing motor chamber keeps operating noise to 62 dB(A), so it is easier to run in occupied spaces without creating as much disruption.
On the platform side, this vacuum is part of Makita’s 18V LXT system. It is compatible with Makita 18V LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries that have the Star symbol, and Star Protection Computer Controls help monitor overload, over-discharge, and overheating. That matters if your crew already runs Makita cordless tools and wants battery commonality instead of adding another battery platform just for floor care.
Who should buy it? This robotic vacuum is a strong fit for facility maintenance teams, janitorial crews, schools, office managers, retail maintenance, and contractors handling large finished indoor spaces. It is best on hard floors where repeat cleaning routes, boundary control, and long cordless runtime matter more than handheld portability. If you need a compact vacuum for spot cleanup, this is overkill. If you need automated cleaning coverage in larger commercial areas, the DRC300PT is built for exactly that job.

Built For
Facility Maintenance Janitorial Crews Commercial Cleaning Office Buildings Retail Floors Schools & Institutions Large Hard-Floor Areas Scheduled Routine Cleaning
Pro Tip
If you are cleaning the same commercial rooms every day, take the time to register the space and set boundary lines instead of relying on Free Mode. That is where the DRC300PT starts earning its keep, because it spends less time wandering and more time actually covering floor.
Warranty & Support
3-year limited warranty on tool, battery and charger.
Tool Nut’s Take
Tool Nut’s Take
Makita DRC300PT is built for real commercial floor coverage
This is the kind of robotic vacuum that makes sense when you need repeatable hard-floor cleaning in bigger spaces and already run on Makita batteries.
- Who it’s for: Facility crews, janitorial teams, schools, offices, and anyone maintaining large indoor hard-floor areas on a schedule.
- Why it stands out: The mapping system, long runtime, HEPA filtration, boundary control, and true 18V LXT battery platform make it more job-focused than a typical home robot vacuum.
- Worth knowing: This is not a small spot-cleaning machine. It is at its best when you use the mapping features, set up rooms properly, and let it handle routine floor maintenance.
