I hope you are right about Dreame as I just got L50 pro Ultra. After almost 10 years with Roomba 980 my biggest fear is that these tech filled toys cant live half of that

L50 ultra Amazon is $800 the best. Better than the l40 I had

My apartment is hardwood with low Pile rugs. 2 sheddy dogs and 1 (beautiful and sweet) sheddy wife. I’m pretty happy with my L50 ultra so far. But there are some caveats: The battery life isn’t great. The navigation/obstacle avoidance is kind of quirky.

I had an x40 ultra that got warranty refunded. I’m in my first week with my L50 ultra and I’m cautiously optimistic. After a few days fiddling with settings it is operating how I would like it and doing a decent job of it. It does have the hardware for matter but is not “yet” supported. The only negative I have so far is that it’s battery life is atrocious.

I’m about a month in with my L50 Ultra. I’m in a 750 SF NYC apartment with wood floors, tile and 3 low pile area rugs, 2 sheddy dogs and a sheddy (beautiful) wife. After reading this post I just flipped my bot over for the first time to check the brush. ZERO tangling. It does fantastic on the hardwood/tile and I would say it’s very very respectable for the carpet. I upgraded after an X40 Ultra had a fatal error and am much happier with this unit than the X40 Edit: the “hair compaction” feature in the base station also seems to be quite effective.

One thing I forgot to mention is the battery life is quite bad. If I set it to run a double pass over my whole apartment on max suction, it gets about 4/5 clean before it has to recharge.

I got the dreameL50 and its pretty decent. But if you dont need one that goes up little steps then its a waste of money

Maybe wait fro the new narwhal flow 2 if you want really good mopping. But for pet hair I think the l50 ultra is the best. But if you want to go for roborock becauseo f the better build quality and customer support, the saros 10r would be good.

I own both robots and this is a tough choice. I like them both a lot. The L50 ultra has a very small advantage with maintenance because it can dispense solution, whereas you have to add it manually to the clean water tank on the Qrevo Curve 2 Flow. However, the Curv is very low maintenance for a roller mop robot. It does a really good job at cleaning itself. I've had it for a couple of months now and everytime I check the parts that require maintenance they are clean.The Curve also has a much better battery life. Hopefully this info helps a little.

Actually i dont like the L50 series imho. the incremental increase in suction and water temp plus that little wheel lift is too little feature for that huge price bump over L40. The dual brush on L50 is kind of meh unless you have deep carpet. For hard floor, single brush is good enough. Personally mova p10 pro ultra (which is literally just dreame L40 but with the detachable mop pad software lock) is the best value for money. Especially when they are on sale. both dreame and mova belong the same company and used the same upstream supplier btw. They just market it to differently. Almost all the spare part are interchangeable between mova and L series machine. Roborock saros Z70 gave up a lot internal room to fit that robo arm. So its suction and dust capacity is much lower than non-arm equivalent. I don't think it justified the cost and lower suction power yet. btw there are reusable dust bag with zipper. Just to let you know. It's sold by 3rd party and less hepa seal but the trade off is you dont need to buy new bag when it's filled. just unzip and empty it out then zip back in.
