dreame X50 Ultra Complete Robot Vacuum with Self-Cleaning & Emptying

This is my 2nd Dreame robot vacuum and I must say this one is a beast!! My previous version was the Dreame L10s and although it was good, quite often I would have to get hair out of the roller before it would successfully vacuum again. I have three dogs and one is a golden retriever which means I have a lot of hair in my house. I also had to actually remove the dust bin and manually empty it out because the base did not empty it all the way. The upgrade to the X 50 was the best move I could ever make. I waited a little while to write this review because I wanted to see how it would do on my floors first. I have never since I’ve had it, had to empty out the dust bin manually the base handles it perfectly. I rarely have hair caught in the rollers. The new roller design does a great job of keeping the hair from tangling. Of course you do have to occasionally do maintenance on it where you change the air filter and the little front roller wheel where you can take it off and get the hair out, but it’s not every week even, that I have to do that. It also has a self cleaning base which is fabulous!! The previous version was a pain to clean. I had to get down on my hands and knees to clean it properly. This model has a tray that you can take out and take to the sink and clean it when you need to, which is not too often. I usually clean it maybe once a month at best. It also has the legs that lift up to go over obstacles like raised doorways, and things like that. It has a medium noise level, not quite as loud as the previous version. You can also set it up to vacuum and mop at the same time.It also has a phone app that has a lot of features where you can pause the unit, send it back to dock, schedule cleanings, which I have it set to run four times a day, and it maps your house. You can also set up areas on the map that you want the vacuuming to avoid. I would highly recommend this product!! Quick note the very first one I got from Amazon the mop pads would not stay on it, they are magnetic, however Amazon. Because I didn’t want to go without a vacuum.

I have been using this robot vacuum for a while now, and honestly, it has become one of those things I didn't realize I needed until I had it. It has made keeping my home clean feel so much more effortless and less stressful. What I personally love most is how much time it gives me back. Between work, errands, and just life in general, I don't always have the energy to vacuum and mop everyday. With this robot, I just set it and let it do its thing. It moves around my home really smoothly and does not constantly bump into things or get stuck like other robot vacuums I have tried in the past. I can actually trust it to clean different rooms without me checking on it every few minutes. The suction is strong enough that I notice a real difference, crumbs, dust, and pet hair are gone in one run most of the time. My floors just feel cleaner overall, especially in the kitchen and living areas where I am always walking back and forth. Another thing I like is the mopping feature. The fact that it washes and dries its own mop pads in the base station is very good. I don't have to deal with dirty pads or any messy cleanup afterward, which makes me actually want to use the mopping function more often. When it runs, it's so quiet, and I think it really worth the money. Yeah, it saves me a lot of time for cleaning my house daily. Very appreciate this new robot vacuum and mop.

BACKGROUND We've had robo-vacuums for years, starting with the Roomba/iRobot, then more recently Roborock, and finally this one. So we've seen the progression in the industry, and have comparison points between brands. With an aging Roomba crapping out on one of our floors, research led me to take a chance on DREAME (found through vacuumwars). So far, pretty glad we did! Given that robo-vacuums aren't kind of a multi-faceted topic, I'll break it down below: APP Not the best, not the worst. I think Roborock's app (although far from perfect) is actually a bit more intuitive. That said, this one has an absolute TON of feature controls, which is kind of awesome. FORM FACTOR/SIZE The unit itself is fine, the base is... well, it feels huge. I don't think there's much they can do about it, because it has a good sized clean and dirty water tank, room for detergent, and the dust bag itself. No wasted space, but it was way more imposing than we expected. It's about the size of a small kitchen trash can, so prepare yourself. NOISE Insanely quiet. This is rated at significantly higher suction than even our Roborocks, but generates like 1/4 the noise of others. It's whisper quiet. Other vacuums make a ton of noise even just traversing the room (e.g. when mapping), as if it can't move without running the vacuum. This one does not, meaning it can map the room in perfect silence. Mopping is similarly silent. VACUUM As mentioned, super quiet, but *seems* to be doing its job very well. We haven't noticed any issues yet, and our floors (hardwood and tile) are flawlessly clean. MOPPING We've had multi-function bots before (Roborock), but these basically just had a tiny reservoir of water on the unit itself, which would wet the mop pad, and just drag that across the floor. Maybe better than nothing, but the hassle of refilling the tiny chamber made it basically just not ever worth the effort. This one is different. It literally is like a full service robot - dropping its mop pads when not needed, cleaning them after use, refilling itself, empying dirty water, etc. Plus the mop pads rotate and extend out to baseboards/corners as needed. Super cool to see the advances they've made in a few short years! LONGEVITY No idea here, as it's new to our household, but it came loaded with replacements for everything... brushes, bags, mop pads, etc. Certainly more than any previous vacuum we've gotten. Hope it lives long enough to need those! OVERALL Super impressed so far, form factor aside (and I think that's just a requirement given its features/function). Would recommend.

I bought this as a used but like new X50 Ultra unit but when set up it did not perform as it should. I sent the unit's actual serial number to Dreame. They confirmed that although it came in an Ultra 50x box, it is actually an L40s Ultra. (See Below) Thank you for letting us know. We understand your concern regarding the device model and the leg extension issue. Based on the Product SN you provided, we have confirmed that the device model is L40s Ultra. Somebody apparently swapped units somewhere along the line, returned an inferior unit, and Amazon didn't catch it when it was returned. When I set it up and the vacuum did not operate with all the features that model should have had, on inspection I found that the serial numbers on the factory box and on the unit itself were different I'm shipping it back for a refund and I'm very disappointed! I hope Amazon at least follows up and does something about this with whomever perpetrated this fraud! Even though I'm getting a refund I still have to repack the unit and I've lost the better part of a day trying to get it to work, corresponding with Dreame and Amazon and i still don't have a working robot vacuum/ mop! BTW, Dreame live customer service is apparently just a call center. When I first tried to troubleshoot by calling them, when I finally got through, the person I spoke with knew less about the unit than I did. They were actually reading the instructions to familiarize themselves with its operation and were generally impolite. After five minutes of nothing, I ended up telling them that they had no idea what they were talking about, that they were wasting my time and hung up.

Was debating whether this was worth the cost compared to budget models. We have a dog an dcat that like to shed their hair like it's an Olympic competition, and so we decided to splurge. It has been worth it- our floors are so much easier to maintain. It still gets stuck occasionally and talks to us when we don't need to, but it's great. few teething pains when setting up the app, but worth it.

Absolutely in love with this robot vacuum! The 20,000Pa suction power easily handles all dirt and pet hair on my rugs and hard floors. The self-cleaning and self-emptying base station makes maintenance completely hassle-free. It easily crosses high thresholds and carpet edges without getting stuck, and the anti-tangling brush actually works. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing I love this machine It does so well I can't say enough about this machine from now on it's my little buddy as far as I'm concerned the claiming performance is amazing it docks on its own battery life is amazing Yes it's a bit pricey but it does empty itself it mops it sweeps it does corners it rinses some mops you have to drain the water you have to fill the water other than that it takes care of everything Battery life great noise level You can barely hear it unless you have it on Max section

The item is big and the package is very good to protect the vacuum during the transit. It is very easy to use and you just need to download the app and draw the map. Everyday the machine will help clean the room by itself. The most important is that the it can vacuum the room super clean. I like it.

Good but joints are left dirty

Excelente producto y atención

Work as expected.

Much better than Xiaomi x20 Thanks for the seller.

For years i kept telling myself i did not need a robot and i would not get one. Now, i say to myself, why didnt i get one sooner, especially one that mops! Vacuuming is a chore, a necessary one that i had no issue doing. But mopping?? Who on earth likes to mop? Out of all the house works, flooring mopping and shower tile scrubbing are the two most dreaded houseworks. Needless to say, the mopping function of this Dreame robot is what excites me the most! Let’s talk from the beginning… Set up was a lot less intimidating than i thought, just download the app and make sure you are connecting to the 2.4Ghz WiFi, and allocate at least an hour or two, because once you start the process, you are fascinated to play with the app and see what the robot can do. I have been using the robot for two weeks now, and I can say it gets better everyday. I watched Robbie (yes i gave the robot a name lol) and I followed it around during the first few rounds. Initial mapping was rudimentary, it appeared random, roaming the house kind of all over the place. There were instances of mindless spinning at the same spot where Robbie was not vacuuming nor mopping, it was just endlessly spinning as if it was lost and confused. Such confused moments often lasted up to 3 minutes and i was convinced Robbie was a lemon. However, Robbie never gave up… the more Robbie worked, the better it became, and I could see mapping was getting more fine tuned and patterns were emerging. Robbie is surprisingly quiet. The only time i would consider it loud is when Robbie returns to its station to empty the trash, or rinse the mop pads. During vacuuming sessions i am able to hear the TV while it is roaming around my vicinity. It is even more quiet during mopping that there were times i totally forgot Robbie was on duty and I went to look for it. Mopping performance is quite impressive, and it surprisingly uses very little water. Once you set up the clean water tank, Robbie handles its own water refills, washes the mop pads, and empties dirty water to another tank. I have a furbaby who uses a pee tray at home, the occasional pee droplets on the floor around the pee tray gets cleaned up very well. BUT many times the robot fails to recognize the pee tray as an obstacle and activates its legs and climbs on top of it to mop/vacuum. Luckily no poop was on the tray, which makes me curious, can Robbie really recognize poop? What if it doesn’t? I am not going to test that by purposely leaving out a poop, I certainly don’t want anything funky to be dragged around the entire house!! So for peace of mind, i remove the pee tray when Robbie is in the area. My dog also likes to constantly stand in front of the vacuum and stares at it with curiosity. Robbie never once bumped into my baby. It also never hit into furniture legs, in fact it stays too far away that it leaves a ring of dust around table/chair legs. Obstacle avoidance is very good. However, just like everything else, life is not all rosy with Robbie. While it vacuums generally well, I feel that it is not very good at picking up dusts at corners, although it has a side brush extension that is supposed to do this very function. I have many houseplants throughout the house and often there are dried up leaves sitting in corners, Robbie couldn’t get them after multiple rounds so I ended up picking up the leaves by hand. And since I have a dog, I had set up a baby gate to block the entrance to the mud room. Robbie has difficulty seeing the baby gate probably due to the pickets, at times when it sees the pickets, it stops and back up; then it sees open space (between pickets) so it wants to move forward and bangs into the gate. So i set up no go zone. I also noticed Robbie is unable to clean underneath the kitchen cabinet toe kick, which is approx H3.5”. Robbie stops once it reaches the edge of the cabinet, it does not extend its little arm, it just turns around and move on. The maintenance of the mop tray is annoying, I literally need to go on my hands and knees, lean into the bottom of the station and hand wipe that area. I wish the entire tray can be removed so that the whole thing can be rinsed at the sink. I have seen videos of other robots with such feature, hopefully future generations of Dreame will have that. I have not yet tried the multi floor management function yet, because I have a partial renovation going on so there are boxes in some areas, too many obstacles for Robbie. I am curious to see how that works because obviously i will not be moving the station/dock to another floor. I guess Robbie will periodically summon me to bring him back to the station to empty the trash and wash the mop pads. That will be interesting to see. In terms of battery, it lasts about 3 hours before it roams back to the station for recharge. I always have Robbie vacuum first and mop after (dinning room, kitchen, family room, front hallway) and it always require a recharge (battery top up) in order to complete the tasks. Just like all other battery powered products, i suppose battery run time will decrease overtime, hopefully the battery is replaceable when time comes. The app is full of features, it is rather intuitive, kind of like iPhone, just play around and you kind of get the idea, but at the same time i wished there is a manual of some sort to help understand the functions and differences in commands (ie: intensive cleaning vs deep cleaning). Many times i had to Google to see explanations from other user forums. Among the many features, you can schedule auto clean up. Convenient as it may be, I won’t be using that because it can trigger the alarm if no one is home (like vacations). I don’t want cops breaking down my front door for no reason. Also, I am afraid that the occasional power outage may somehow cause a reset and Robbie may go wild and rogue (yeah I watch too many movies). For those who wants to use the schedule function, my advise is to unplug this thing when you go away for holiday. I have not had the need to remove anything for maintenance (the double brush or the little arm) so I cannot comment on how easy/difficult it will be. I have only removed the trash bag from the station to see how it works and that part is very simple. So far my experience has been very positive. Once you get through the initial set up, the rest is pretty much hands free, and all you need is just basic maintenance, and a basic common sense of not leaving certain things on the floor (phone cables, socks) to avoid potential entanglement. Although there are areas that require manual cleaning due to the limitations of the robot, the vacuuming and mopping results are consistently good. I am very impressed by the robot’s performance. Should you decide on this little guy, I am sure you will be as happy as I am.
