Dreame - D10s Plus

Here in Australia we have a Q10V plus. Similar situation where I couldn't find a review on it but decided to go ahead with it. Absolutely love the device. I did a quick this vs my dreame d10s plus (previous vacuum) after my usage with the device. Here's the subreddit if anyone would be interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/RobotVacuums/comments/1kidons/roborock_q10v_vs_others/

None that fulfil all your requirements. The really good vacuum-only robots are relatively 'dumb' bots compared to the combo robots. Dreame has improved a lot from the D10S Plus too.

Thanks for sharing! I hypothesize that the X50 Ultra's poor battery life is likely due to the more power-hungry computer chip it utilizes. My own experience with the L40s Pro Ultra (mainland Chinese version) had a *worse battery life* that struggled to finish cleaning my home whereas my much cheaper combo Xiaomi robot (also mainland Chinese version) that has the same battery capacity and is also made by Dreame would be able to vacuum first and then mop my small apartment and finish with 50%. Other reviewers have reported that the L40s Pro Ultra (non-mainland Chinese edition) had a bad battery life, just like me :( Hopefully, this issue will be fixed soon. I hope the Dreame Aqua 10 Pro Track doesn't suffer the same battery life issue, especially because it'll need a more powerful chip to process all the information coming from the HD binocular RGB cameras and the dot projector, and a power-efficient water heater in the robot to heat the water up.

For some reason, every high end vacuum seems to have a bunch of mopping stuff. But I don't need (or particularly trust) automated mopping. I have a cat who has lots of toys and loves to spread litter everywhere. The dream would be to be able to get something with all the bells and whistles---auto empty dock (of course), really good obstacle avoidance with an AI camera etc., decent with corners ... but without paying for mop features. Is this possible these days? Does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks!! (I don't trust Dreame. I currently have a d10s plus---never used the mopping feature, lol---and it's super unreliable, has to be reset constantly and seems to just have gone totally haywire this morning. Not buying anything from those crooks ever again. But open to roborock, Roomba, Eufy, Ecovacs, etc., and had good experience with an old )

The D10s Plus is a two year old+ budget robot vacuum. A ton has changed in two years, a ton has changed in one year, really even in the last six months. Build quality, sensor reliability, mapping, cameras, etc. has improved. You can't really compare anything available now to your D10s Plus including what's available from Dreame. There's nothing wrong with trying out another brand, but they have at least three of the best reviewed robot vacuums on the market, plus the Mova budget line is killing it.

We’ve been running a Dreame D10s for 2yrs now, it’s been excellent, haven’t had a single issue with it, navigation round a quite complex downstairs map is great and it is able to detect rugs / carpets and hard floors correctly. Consumables are readily available from aliexpress. I was slightly sceptical of buying a random Chinese brand but even if I died tomorrow I’d quite happily buy the new version of it.

I started with a dumb bump around Eufy 11s refurb years ago. Ran it for years, replaced one wheel and a battery (super easy, love the support parts). Just got a refurb Dreame 10s which adds mapping and mopping. I’m sure the latest models does more, but there are so many models and updates, I’m perfectly happy to be behind the curve, save the money, and still have a clean house. 

Check Bestbuy.ca, surprisingly their deals on robot vacuums have been wild lately. Good portion of them are on for 66% off or more. There was a high end bObsweep vacu/mop combo that was $1599 down to $399 just last week. I also abused the sale to get myself a Dreame D10+ Self emptying for $199 down from $599

- Dreame robo vacuum flashed with valetudo: cheap, private and clean - Automatic blinds with HA control to automatically close/open on sunny side on hot days: always cool and no need to think about - esp-devices like wemos d1 Mini with esphome: super cheap all-round devices, generic base software with crazy variability and perfect HA integration

Did this and it’s perfect. The install is VERY involved and there’s some text that says “your thousand dollar robot is waste if you fuck up this part of the install” but once it’s done it’s amazing. All the advertised (by dreame) features work great including mapping, virtual zones, single room cleaning, schedules, etc are all great. You do definitely need to know what you’re doing though.

I've got a dreamtech which has self cleaning mops and it does pretty good. I've also got 2 kids and toys all over the floor and it barely gets stuck.
