Combo i5 Robot Vacuum and Mop

They still have the same dual roller design that my old Roomba i5 (no station) has, and let me tell you - it's anti-tangle my ass. I have to dismantle the whole robot after cleaning because although the hair doesn't tangle around the rollers, it makes up for it by tangling heavily around roller axles and inside the roller (roller ends are hollow) and also around the small tri-brush arm. It then just drags long hair all over the place. So unless you don't have long hairs in your household, it's maybe worth it.

I just bought the L40S Ultra CE for $250 brand new today and I am watching it vacuum and mop now. I am beyond ecstatic with how much I love it. I was able to set it up in less than 5 mins and it mapped my 800 sq. Ft apt in 6 mins. It’s incredibly quiet I can’t believe it. It looks and feels high quality and upmarket. It can see obstacles and moves around them precisely and is totally avoiding the carpet as it’s mopping right now by mopping around it. I had a Roomba i5 combo that vac and moped thought that did a decent job until seeing this Dreame and I now realize the Roomba was a clunky, archaic pile of shit. Bumped into everything, didn’t stick to the map or zones and was loud. Didn’t avoid obstacles or strategically navigate itself. Wish I could show you a video of how intelligent this robot is I can’t believe it!

We have a Roomba i5 and it works pretty well. We specifically bought that one because it could handle pet fur and so far it gets like 90% on a single run. Technically we should've switched the filter a year ago, but so far vacuuming it has been enough to keep it working.

I hope they find a decent US or EU buyer. I’ll buy most Chinese products all day long, but I don’t trust having my entire house’s LIDAR scans or photos/videos in the possession of a company that can be easily forced to hand all data over to their government, no matter their policy. That makes most of the great robot vacs a non-starter for my wants & needs, so I got a roomba i5. It’s been great despite this sub’s negative feedback toward the brand!

I have the one that empties itself, i5. Works great. Sometimes I send the 890 in to pre-clean and it has a big bin.
