Reliable, great mopping (lifts pads), but poor cable avoidance.

these two will be good budget options!! Roborock Q8 Max Plus https://www.webhallen.com/se/product/365760-Roborock-Q8-Max-White?utm_source=prisjakt.nu&utm_medium=cpc Dreame D20 Plus https://www.webhallen.com/se/product/387602-Dreame-D20-Plus-White?utm_source=prisjakt.nu&utm_medium=cpc If hair is shedded in your apartment, I’d go for the d20 plus as hair won’t get tangled in the rollers. You’d just have to remove the hair from ends of rollers from the q8 max+ every once in a while :)
Xiaomi is a great option if you want it to actually mop. You’d just have to dampen the mops before it mops and wash the mops after it finishes mopping. It’s best to run it to vacuum first then mop.
The dreame D20 Plus at 329, the MOVA E30 Pro Plus at 349, and the Dreame D20 Pro Plus at 365 USD will be perfect for you. It has antitangle dual main brushes and a tangle resistant side brush which is a lifesaver for those with long hair and fur. I’ve had robots with the same antitangle dual main brushes and they’ve never choked on waist length hair and long haired corgi fur. It also has a big dust bin at 500mL and a 5L dustbag it autoempties into. There’s a removable mopping compartment too which will do at best passive swiffer mopping. If you can’t figure out the differences let me tell you what they are: The only difference between them is that both the MOVA E30 Pro Plus and the Dreame D20 Pro Plus has an extendable side brush which helps at getting little fur bunnies in corners or reaching under furniture like your fridge when cleaning along it and that the D20 Plus doesn’t. The MOVA E30 Pro Plus boasts 19,000 Pa over the Dreame D20 models but I never consider boasted pascal rating as they’re often gamed and don’t really mean anything by themselves.
The best basic choice would be the Dreame D20 Plus and the best cost effective choice (based on features) would be the MOVA E30 Pro Plus. I’d wait for Black Friday which should be Nov 20-ish onwards.
I’d also check out the dreame d20 plus/pro plus and the MOVA e30 pro ultra if fur tangles are a concern as they have antitangling main brushes that have worked great in my experience. MOVA did send me their v50 and z60 ultra roller for free to review.
I’d definitely check out the dreame d20 plus/pro plus, the MOVA E30 pro plus, or the roborock Q10 S5+ but the roborock is more likely to have hair tangle around its brush. They all come with a mop but these mops are more of an afterthought and are easily removable. Get them from amazon for easy returns~
I’d recommend the Dreame l40 ultra and the MOVA p10 pro ultra at 400-450. Although they are vacuuming and mopping combo robots, they’re pretty good vacuum robots with great obstacle avoidance, chair legs and wires won’t be a concern. If it’s only chair legs that’s a concern, I’d check out the roborock q10 s5+ or if hair and fur shedding is a concern the dreame d20 plus/pro plus and the MOVA e30 pro plus which should be in the 200-400 range.
Depends if you want the robot to vacuum or vacuum and mop. Most combo robots generally sacrifice vacuuming ability to accommodate the mop parts. Best budget vacuuming focused robot is the roborock q10 s5+ or the dreame d20 plus/pro plus in the 200-300 range if pet fur is more of a concern. The Dyson VisNav 360 can be considered if you want a robot that cleans as well as a cordless Dyson (yes, a Dyson is one of the best robot vacuums) but there are tradeoffs regarding its battery life and navigation (current owners say it has improved). I’d only consider the Dyson if it is less than half of its retail price. Do not get the Dyson Spot+Scrub unless you like to burn your money. Best bang for buck robot vacuum and mop combo is the dreame l40 ultra at 400 usd on amazon.
I think dreame and MOVA have vacuuming focused robots that are better suited for heavily shedding pets like their d20 plus/pro plus, and the MOVA E30 as it has the fur compression feature so the dustbin won’t clog in one part with a lot of empty space in the middle. If you want something that mops, I’d get the edge 5V1 as it has an antitangle main brush. Hot air mop drying helps a lot in prevent mildew unlike the QV35 and the QV35A.
I’d check out the dreame d20 plus/pro plus or the MOVA e30 pro plus as vacuuming focused robots as their dual antitangle rollers do well for carpet!
It’ll have bump and go and a top mounted lidar sensor for obstacle avoidance. There’s also the dreame d20 pro plus and the d20 plus (main difference is an extending side brush on the pro plus but no extending side brush on the plus) with front structured light which should be in this price range.
Reliable connectivity is basically a given for most modern robots from the big brands. I’d definitely check out the dreame d20 pro plus/d20 plus or the MOVA e30 pro plus (basically the dreame d20 pro plus but can be found for cheaper) as they are vacuum focused robots with a removable mop pad and do great with fur since they have dual antitangle brushes and a fur compression feature that has worked well.
I’d check out the dreame d20 if you just want a basic no frills vacuuming focused robot that does well with long hair and has a basic charging base station. The dreame d20 plus and the pro plus has an autoempty station. The MOVA e30 pro plus ultra is going to be the best bang for buck if you want what the dreame d20 pro plus offers at a lower price. Would also check out the roborock q10 s5+ as a great budget friendly vacuum focused robot. MOVA sent me their v50 ultra and their z60 ultra roller to review as part of their Reddit collaboration program. MOVA’s hyperstream antitangle duorollers that the dreame d20 series also has really do work with waist length hair and my long haired corgi’s fur on hard floors and carpets.
The Q10 S5+ is a good budget robot. If your pets shed a lot I’d check out the dreame d20 plus or the d20 pro plus as it has a fur compression feature that lets it do better with fur without clogging up in the middle and leaving empty space on the sides.
What's steaming? I'd check out the dreame d20 plus or the mova e30 pro plus
I’d check out the dreame d20 plus or the MOVA e30 pro plus which is the d20 pro plus at a cheaper price. MOVA sent me their v50 ultra and the Z60 ultra roller to review as part of their Reddit collaboration program. The robots I mentioned have the same antitangle duo brush rollers which do great for my long haired corgi’s fur on carpet so I’d recommend these robots. Also would recommend combo models like the S8 MaxV ultra or the roborock QRevo master if you can find them at the <500 price point

I have a dreame x20. Paid nearly $2k for it. It's not great. Does slightly worse job than my wife. Biggest issue is that it keeps getting jammed up on something the kids left on the ground. , but to be fair we have 2 primary age kids and our house is a shit hole. I've seen a couple horror stories where the mop cleaned up pet poo and spread it all over the house.
Do you think the Matrix10 Ultra is better than the X50 Ultra? It seems to have some of the better features of the Aqua, but spinning mops instead of roller (obvioulsy the gimmicky switching pads thing). I've only used Dreame (L10S Ultra, to X20, to X40) and am wondering if I am missing anything and not going for Roborock finally? I like Dreame's app, they just seem to suck with firmware updates and abandon robots VERY early after release.
so i had a [dreame d20vim pro plus](https://oklookup.com/review/dreame-d20vim-pro-plus-vacuum/) for a while and honestly, it’s pretty solid for dust and hair. got this nice suction power and it doesn’t get stuck on my hardwoods. like, the battery lasts long enough for my place too, which is a plus. only annoying thing is the dust bin is kinda small, so i’m emptying it more than i want. but for the price, it’s hard to beat. the l10s ultra is probably nice too but for a first vacuum, i’d say go with the d20vim pro plus.
Hi I work for Dreame USA in New Jersey, unfortunately, I won’t be able to give you any of the incredible deals we have at our store, but I’m happy to give you some insight L10s Is our most affordable model that includes mopping. This is actually our upgraded version to the one I sell in store, but I feel like the only upgraded really got was suction power, faster, battery, charging. And a better navigation than the first generation. The issue I have with this robot is although it has better overall cleaning mainly with mopping comparative to D 20 . The maintenance isn’t as hands-free. It has a removable washing board that you will have to clean maybe once every 1 to 2 weeks also you will have to maintenance it’s rubber brush, which brings me to my biggest downside to this robot it’s a brush This model comes with a standard rubber brush. Which does do a good job at picking up dust but its issue is that it doesn’t terrible job at detangling hair. Even if you don’t have pets if you have long hair as human beings, we just shed we don’t even notice sometimes. And it’s going to clog your machine not to the point where it won’t work, but if you’re looking for a truly hands-free experience, this is something you will have to maintenance every one to two weeks. There is a solution, we do make what’s called a tri cut brush. And it’s even advertised with that brush. But in small letters on the website, it says not included. Which means at least in USD it’s an additional $50. And that’s whack. Still a great machine for the price but you have to know what you are getting into. You are getting a trusted brand, great overall cleaning, if you got the tri-cut that helps boosts machine even more. To make it a more hands-free experience. D20 I actually own this robot personally, even though I could’ve went all out on a bigger machine and the reason I went with the D20 is the fact that I mop my house a certain way and I really just needed something to help with the dust and hair around the house. The D 20 comes with our duo detangling brush, which is one of the best detangling brushes on the market that help make your robot as hands-free as possible. It also has the same threshold crossing as the L10 still has very decent navigation and from what it sounds in your situation, you don’t need anything that is above and beyond. And the dust bag is hands-free from anywhere between 100 to 150 days. And lastly, the D20 also has 13,000 Pa suction power comparative to the L10 at 10,000 Pascal of suction power. Where are does the D20 Falls Short? - it’s mopping system, it’s super basic. Will it help pick up some grim off the floor? Yes. Is it great? No. Is it sanitary? Kinda … My final verdict: If you like, mopping your own house and just need help with the dust, and one more hands-free robot D20 is the way to go If you would also appreciate help in the mopping department. Don’t mind doing a little maintenance to care for a robot. The L10s Gen 2 will give you a superior overall clean. I hope this helps. Best of luck to you!!
You can get the Eufy e25 for A$895 at JB. Or reading the comments, as low as A$700 with some price matching or negotiation at the good guys. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/940548 Under $500 Australian is rough for a new-ish vacuum that also mops well (ie more than simply dragging the mop pad around). If you want to stick to the budget, I'd suggest this Dreame D20 Plus as being a decent option. The vacuuming is excellent and the included brush is the same as high end flagships. We have long hair, multiple pets and there's zero tangles so far. The mop is... basic and serviceable, but that's about good as you'll get for A$400. https://www.amazon.com.au/Auto-Empty-HyperStream-Anti-Tangle-Hands-Free-Infrared/dp/B0FB2MFN7X?th=1
