I’d go for the GoVac 600 mainly because it’s from Costco and will do better with pet fur since it has the fur compression feature.
Definitely the GoVac 600, costco is pretty worry free
The GoVac 600 is a better bang for buck robot mainly because it has a detergent tank it can use to wash the mops.
The roborock models with Adaptlift can only cross a single threshold up to 3cm and a tiered threshold up to 4cm (3cm + 1cm). Only dreame and MOVA’s robots with their threshold climbing features (ProLeap and StepMaster) can cross higher single thresholds.
I highly recommend combo robots if your parents walk around the house barefoot, it greatly improves the feel! The combo robots I found best for keeping itself clean are the dreame and MOVA robots with the filter self cleaning function and the flat washboard. I was able to get away with making my MOVA V50 run everyday for 3 months without a noticeable change in cleanliness. After that it’ll be and the roborock Curv 2 Pro and the Narwal spinning mop robots which generally consume more water than the other options. The app is going to be a challenge for them but you can set it up for them and put it on a schedule so they won’t have to open the app at all.
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.
If wet spills is an issue, you need a roller style mop. You can get the Eufy E25, Ecovacs X9 or ideally the Mova Z60. If roller style mops are not a requirement I would recommend the Mova P10 Pro Ultra. It's an amazing robot, but the suction and mopping are not the best. I recently grabbed the Dreame GoVac 600 (L50 Ultra) from Costco at $400 off. Both it's cleaning and mopping are a cut above the P10 Pro Ultra, but at the expense of battery life. Use the Roborock pads in Mova/Dreame for best results on hardwood.
Dreame if you care about obstacle avoidance. Roborock still eats cables even on their flagship models. The govac will perform better
You mentioned some Canadian Costco models what do you think about the Dreame Govac 600 (supposedly a L50 ultra) and the Roborock QX Revo Ultra. Currently I have the Dreame and it’s not able to get in its dock... I think I got a bad one and am debating getting an exchange or I just go with the Roborock. I have 2 double coated dogs and 80% hardwood flooring. If that help’s.
Bought a dreame l50 ultra ( govac 600) from kohls for $250 w/5 years warranty during December currently going for 1300 ish. Just gotta find the perfect timing😊
I just ordered to Dreame Go Vac 600 from Target on sale for $799. With my target card 5% back I get an $40 off. I sent an email to Dreame and they said it's the same machine as the Dream L50 Ultra (currently top of Vacuum Wars top robot vac list). The L50 Ulta is on sale for $999 on Dreame website and coupon code Guru10 knocks $100 off. I plan on not opening until all black friday sales are done in case it drops lower.
We have the dreame govac 600 or whatever it's is called and very happy with it so far.
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.
