Dreame - GoVac 400

I went with the Dreame. Worst case scenario is thay I dont like it and will take it back and exchange for the Roborock. They seem to have pretty much the same features.

I got the Roborock Qx Revo when it was on sale at Costco for $459 and I’m happy with it. The Dreame GoVac 400 is a good option too and has been on sale for $399 before. Avoid Shark and iRobot. Wait for a sale.

Dreame Govac 400 from Costco.

I picked up the Dreame GoVac 400 last month for that same price and a so far I’ve been happy with it. Obstacle avoidance has been good and I plan on eventually buying the upgraded Tri-Cut Brush to avoid hair tangles.

This one does not have a detangling brush, so it might get tangled easily, but a lot of Dreame's and Mova Robovacs can use the Dreame/Mova Tri cut brush. Check if the govac 400 can fit the Dreame tri cut brush (I'm like 95% sure it can), if it can, it could be a pretty good option for pet hair. The good thing about Costco is that if it doesn't end up working out, you can just return it. (you will have to buy the tricut brush separately though)

yeah, its basically always on sale for 900, not complaining tho, I think its a good robovac thats worth the price.

Roborock Q5 max+ is a carpet beast, the duorollers will not tangle but they will accumulate hair at the roller’s ends and you’ll have to remove the hair wraps periodically. I’ve been using Costco’s Dreame GoVac 400 (equivalent to other models) on my mostly carpeted floor and the Tricut brush is amazing with hair, none on the ends anymore and zero tangles, plus it mops my bathrooms which is a plus.

The Dreame GoVac 400 is a better deal and within your budget. It’s now for $499 but I got it from Costco last month at $399. Better than the Roborock at half the price.

Sounds almost identical to the Costco’s Dreame GoVac 400. I just got it last week and it’s a lot better than I thought! However Costco sells it at a discount of $399 with an accessory package so definitely a better deal.

You literally left out the best one, Dreame GoVac 400. It’s for $399 now at Costco which is a craaazy value for what you get. This thing has been more reliable than my other “more advanced” robots.

I don’t have the QX Revo, I was comparing it to my L40 and X40. But on paper, compared to the QRevo, the Dreame has considerably stronger suction (13000 vs 5500), washes mops with hot water, better obstacle avoidance, more advanced tech options (swinging body to clean edges) and cheaper.

I ordered the Dreame after seeing the QX Revo plough over everything in justadad’s video lol it’s totally blind. The GoVac at least recognized the toy. Also it’s cheaper with stronger suction and has a space for a detergent tank unlike the QX revo

Forgot to add that you can get the tricut brush for the Dreame which is far superior than the roborock’s single rubber roller

Dreame GoVac 400 after having a Roborock S7 for 3 years

Just got a dreame govac 400 from Costco while it was on coupon for $100 off… so far, for the 1 day I’ve owned it, I like it! 

sadly costco line up is limited right now. I would only go with the Dreame govac 400 or the roborock qx. neither is ideal though but the trade off is that warranty.

Agreed with all of that. We have had a Dreame with the auto empty base station for a few years now. It replaced our original robovac (an LG Roboking) and it has been rock solid. It sets off by itself every morning and does its thing, we empty the base dustbag every 6-8 weeks or so. About once a month, it'll get stuck on a cord or under a bed and can be there for a day or so before we realise and have to rescue it. Every few months, I take the dust collector station out into the shed and blow it out with the air compressor and I've done the same to the robot a few times over its life. We did the Temu bags too and even got a brush and filter replacement kit for a handful of bucks. My only gripe with it is that it seems to always want to do the laundry when I'm ironing my shirt and I've nearly stepped on it more than once :-). One of the best appliance purchases we've made.
