I was considering a Dreame X50 Ultra, but I ended up getting a pair of Switchbot K10+ robots. I already had Ecovacs N8 Pro+ that I picked up in 2021, and the biggest issue I have with that robot is has a lot of trouble getting around the table and chair legs in my dining room. I ended up making my dining room a "no-go-zone" on my main floor of my house because it would often get stuck when the chairs are under the table, creating a complicated obstacle course for a standard-size robot vacuum.
I'm pleased to report that the small size of the K10+ is its superpower! Sure, it doesn't mop well, but that wasn't the most important factor to me. In the "survival of the fittest", small wins. It successfully vacuums everywhere. I have 3 floors in my house, and now I have a robovac for each of them. And you can't complain about the price!
I was also pleasantly surprised by how quiet the K10+ is when it's operating.
On the negative side of the leger I was unable to get the Android version of the Switchbot app to work properly. I pulled out my iPad and tried that, and it worked perfectly the first attempt. So, yeah. the Switchbot Android app has some showstopper bugs.
We dropped ours and bought an Eufy. It says it’s more powerful And better than our Ecovacs N8 but it definitely isn’t and we’ll be buying another - more up to date version - of the N8 soon.
We had the N8 for three years until it was dropped. Bought a cheaper version for £130 and it’s not where near as good as the Ecovacs this n20 is also on Amazon at £70 cheaper than the Plus version as a basic version and if you’ve never had one before you’ll be very impressed with that in itself. The ‘plus’ still needs something emptied at some point. Go for the basic.
