"significantly worse object avoidance than than the Dreame x40 and L40 ... The best feature of the L40/X40/p10 pro ultra is that they have class leading object avoidance so you don't have to pick up your cat's toys or prep your house every time you want to run the robot meaning you can run it on a daily schedule which will keep your house cleaner. ... I run my X40s daily and they never get stuck on cables, cat toys and other random junk that ends up on the floor."
"The X40 is so far ahead in the object avoidance realm that it's not even a contest. ... I have my Dreame X40 running at midnight every day and never have to worry about it getting stuck on something or caught on something because it's object avoidance works so well, even in the dark and on all surfaces. ... It stays clear of cat toys, cords, socks, paper towels and all sorts of random household junk. ... the fact that I can run the Dreame daily will keep my house cleaner."
"The obstacle avoidance is also very good and I only have the pet in house setting on for pet messes and it recognizes my fake dog poop all the time and drive around it."

"I run it once a day, and mop a couple times a week. ... In fact, my wet/dry floor vacuum just died so its pulling even more work right now as it's the only real mop I now have, other than a Swiffer."
"My GOD am I glad I did. I had no idea how much I had been missing! ... We have 2 dogs and a cat, and live more rural. That means dirty paws folks, and a lot of them. The mopping and vacuuming has been no short of amazeballs. Not amazing. Amazeballs."
"The current champ of perfectly sparkling clean floors. ... Have 5 dogs tracking in dirt all day? Run this mop and go eat off the floor. That's how clean it is. ... Step aside spinny & vibration mops, this constantly clean roller mop is the champ. ... The mopping ability is light-years ahead of the Curv. ... The continously cleaning of fresh water is where is truly unique. ... You will be delighted and shocked on how amazing this E28 is. Its truly incomparable to any roborock. Get ready to start eating off your floors 😁😉"

"The Anti-Tangle brush is actually Anti-Tangle. All my previous vacuums would get hair tangled in a single run - I'd clean them at least once a week (neato way more) to get all the hair out. After 24 hours, I see 0 hair stuck. Not one. ... That being said I LOVE the anti-tangle brush. 3 Months and I haven't had to clean the brush one time. It's literally perfect for me."
"I think the MOVA Z50 Ultra is best for those who have long hair or pets that shed and value mopping as much as vacuuming. ... People with long hair will enjoy how it wont tangle in the robot’s main brush"
"One huge leg up for a Shark over Roomba is that the brush roller is similar to a vacuum (e.g. hard plastic), whereas the roomba is a plastic roller with a rubber cover that is DESTROYED by dog fur and you have to frequently replace."

"the MOVA Z50 ultra still greatly outperforms it on wet spills and mopping dried on stains in 41 minutes finishing at 12:49. ... In terms of raw mopping, the MOVA Z50 ultra is clearly better. ... The MOVA Z50 Ultra greatly outperforms it when it comes to mopping too…"
"For mopping, yes. ... my Mova Z50 mops better ... The Z50 has edge mopping, hot water mop washing, warm water floor mopping, and more mopping downward pressure."
"wasn't aware the z50 has warm water cleaning ... you're absolutely right with your recommendation.. just purchased it 🎉👋"

"Smart functions, auto empty, auto mop wash, detergent, side reach, it has it all!"
"You can set the Z50 to shake its butt against the wall so the roller mop can get closer."
"The Mova Z50 Ultra features warm water mopping up to 36ºC to tackle stubborn stains on hard floors and an AI-powered cleaning strategy to detect varying dirt levels. This robot vacuum and mop can even fluff its mop pads in real time to maintain cleaning efficiency. ... Z50 Ultra uses a track type mop called HydroSync ... Yes!!! There are glowing reviews from KOLs. Even one generally more biased towards ecovacs really liked it. The difference between the mini spinning side mop and the track mop is insane as shown in the review. Thankfully there is a setting where you can set it to do an ol’ butt twerk towards the walls as the mops go to the edges of the robot. ... He torture tests it by making it clean his very dirty bathroom ... He tests the butt twerk here and you can see it cleans the edge well and at a reasonable speed. He also tests water efficiency and was satisfied with it ... Always fluffy track mop (I think conveyer belt mop is a better way to name it since it looks more like a conveyer belt to me). ... 36° water used for the mop ... 18N of mopping force. ... Lifting mini mop like the one on some Roborock’s which are only used when mopping edges. Ability to swing butt so conveyer mop can reach edges."

"it is also way more prone to tracking pet messes about, that happened once with a pile of cat vomit and I was a little traumatized."
"it has alleged pet accident avoidance. Well silly me, trusted that, dog had an accident and the vacuum smeared it all over the floor and the docking station. ... I had to manually clean it and have turned off the schedule clean functionality. Will do a manual start after checking the room for pet accidents."
"Firmware currently needs fixing as obstacle avoidance failed poop test ... But the same cannot be said about the obstacle avoidance and navigation. ... If the weird obstacle avoidance gets fixed"

"It gives up quickly and does not map well. ... For example, first time out, it was unable to leave the kitchen. ... So it mapped the kitchen and a space outside the kitchen that it could see was called a room. But it was only able to see 30% of the actual room. ... It did not update the map as the dreame would each run. ... Sent out for a remap. Got the center room and failed to get the hallway that did not have a threshold to cross, got 20% of another room it could't get in and didn't place a wall where there was a wall."
"lost of navigation. ... When come out from the dock station, it somehow lost direction. ... Had to reset it and remap again. ... Almost do it 3 time a weeks. ... lost of connection"
"the bot frequently and randomly loses the map so you have to babysit it as you help it remap, and you have to redraw all the virtual boundaries."

"I don’t mind emptying the bin if it would just vacuum longer than 20 minutes. ... Worked 20 minutes this morning then quit half under our bed. ... Said to move and restart. It started and went back to base. Checked charge. It’s charged. Cleaned roller of a bit of dogs hair. Pushed button to start while in new area. Started but just went back to base. ... Reminds me of a stubborn toddler!"
"I spent more time clearing errors than I ever spent vacuuming. ... at least it isn't throwing me errors 3x a day like the roomba!"

"App issue, it will auto set water level to medium. ... Which I always set to low. ... While cleaning halfway, it auto goes back to medium and result in the floor was wet. ... Since they are not like other brand robots app that can adjust the water level by percentage, it only have low, medium and high, but the medium is already so wet.. so what the purpose of high den? ... leave floor wet and members in the house can fall down easily"
"water drop while cleaning"
"At 13:37 at about the same time the MOVA Z50 Ultra took to almost mop everything (which should have remopped some areas but this is due to firmware) ... If the firmware for automatic remopping is improved, it ll be more time efficient at mopping than the x9 pro omni."

"When vacuuming on hard floors, bigger pieces of debris gets held onto by the mops. This is a problem for robots that can can’t lift their mops high enough."
"as large debris likes to stick onto the mop instead of getting vacuumed."
"But this robot has a tendency to catch things on its mop when just vacuuming."
Hmmm. Next best would be Ecovacs X8 or X9 on sale, or Mova Z50.
r/RobotVacuums • Which mop focused bot for tiles with irregular and partially deeper joints ->Likely both would have been a solid choice (can‘t say about the downforce, but reviewers like vacuumwars never mentioned it). The Z50 has a wider (roller)/track, which is better than on the X8/X9, so probably the better choice, especially if the other guy says it has more downforce (+36C warm mop washing during cleaning)
r/RobotVacuums • Which mop focused bot for tiles with irregular and partially deeper joints ->I got this robot a couple of weeks ago...really surprised about the cleaning quality. Pros: Mapping: quick and very detailed Vacuum: high power, dust recognition, corners cleaning Wet: Roll makes the difference. Cons: None
r/RobotVacuums • MOVA Z50 Ultra German Review ->Amazon.it …Mova Z50, you’re welcome 👍🏼
r/RobotVacuums • Narrowed my choices down to 3 options - which one do you recommend? ->https://preview.redd.it/0ljcbw86si9f1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4ec871065001ca71939632ffb885e9e7a5bbbef3 Yes you can!! 😉 Ordered from Amazon Italy, and it came from Spain lol.
r/RobotVacuums • Narrowed my choices down to 3 options - which one do you recommend? ->I got the Z50 from Italy for €730 a few months ago! Sure it’s less now! Why would the V cost more?
r/RobotVacuums • So what are you getting during these Prime deals? ->Having sent the Z50 back for nav issues I’m not in a hurry to try them again! I think the Flow is top of my list, but it’s getting it here before I got away is becoming an issue - but don’t want to miss sale price again!
r/RobotVacuums • So what are you getting during these Prime deals? ->If you’re not against importing from Amazon, check models on hagglezon.com - it’s the Amazon EU comparison site. You might get a higher model for cheaper than we get in the UK! I had the Mova Z50 from Italy!
r/RobotVacuums • Eufy e25 or ecovacs x8 ->It was the best we’d had…until we got a new rug and the bot just couldn’t navigate on it 😂
r/RobotVacuums • Eufy e25 or ecovacs x8 ->Only had my Mova Z50 about a month, but having replaced a spinny mop Dreame L40 which we used daily for 6mths…I can safely say the roller/trackpad bots are levels above in leaving a floor not only looking but feeling clean under foot!
r/RobotVacuums • Anyone using a roller mop for more than 3 months? Still recommend it? ->I loved the Z50 until it stopped navigating!!
r/RobotVacuums • Mova Black Friday and Cyber Monday Buyers Guide ->I've got the z50 and love it similar setup but no extending mop
r/RobotVacuums • Mova Z60! What makes it worth the upgrade? ->Thank you, I just read more about it an saw that it heats the water as it cleans and the rolling mop is much better than the spinning. 3 years warranty as well in case it breaks as I've heard rolling ones have more maintenance required.
r/RobotVacuums • MOVA Z50 Ultra or Saros 10R ->I purchased it today and got a defective unit, hoping the exchanged one will work.
r/RobotVacuums • MOVA Z50 Ultra or Saros 10R ->Yeah i had a Mova z50 ultra and it broke twice so now i got nothing after the refund
r/RobotVacuums • What's the best robot vacuum currently ->Our Mova has mopping but it's not a *requirement* per say, I believe you can run it with the mop pads off. It's been stronger than our beat up old vacuum though, there's no hair on our rugs or our hardwood flooring and it's rated I think at like 19k
r/RobotVacuums • Are robot vacuum companies distracting us from what really matters - suction power? ->Some can extend the roller mop, I have the mova z50 and while being happy with it, it can’t.
r/RobotVacuums • New high-end vacuum for hard floors ->Not really. I can switch off “anti-colliding” which might help a bit, but no edge cleaning setting or similar.
r/RobotVacuums • New high-end vacuum for hard floors ->Bought the mova z50 and long hair person in the household, so far no tangled hair.
r/RobotVacuums • Which model is best at obstacle avoidance and not tangling hair? ->Mova z50 very good for mopping hard floors but you never know if you are going to be lucky and you get a functioning unit
r/RobotVacuums • Eufy E28 vs Mova Z50 Ultra… or other? 😰 ->It could be as you say considering my experience with p50 and z50 but I wonder why they are the only ones with 3 years warranty
r/RobotVacuums • Why is mova cheaper than dreame? ->I’m interested in reliability since this is the biggest issue of z50
r/RobotVacuums • If I review the new MOVA Z60 Ultra, what would you guys like to see? ->Yes, but not only: water leakage in the base; water drop while cleaning; mop roller durability..
r/RobotVacuums • If I review the new MOVA Z60 Ultra, what would you guys like to see? ->Definitely the best robot with a roller style mop right now, better than the Ecovacs and Eufy. For more details check my comparison table (full Excel file download available!) https://www.reddit.com/r/Dreame_Tech/s/FIuannGgr6
r/Dreame_Tech • Mova Z50 Ultra Review: The Most Powerful AI Robot Vacuum Yet? ->V50 Ultra Is really a good robot with Proleap System and AceClean dryboard but...I would still take the Z50 Ultra just for the way better mopping even though it doesn't have the Proleap System
r/RobotVacuums • CES just dropped a ton of new robot vacuums—where are we headed? ->If mopping is really important "urgent" then definitly the new Dreame Mova Z50 Ultra (mops 2-3 times better than any spinning mop pads). if mopping isn't really important (the robot won't remove stains) than Dreame robots with good self cleaning (they have AceClean 3°generation self-cleaning with reduced maintenance) are: \-Dreame X50 Ultra (expensive) \-Dreame L50 Pro Ultra \-Dreame L40s Pro Ultra \-Dreame L40s Ultra (coming 2025) \-Dreame Mova V50 Ultra (expensive) \-Dreame Mova P50 Pro Ultra \-Dreame Mova P50 Ultra (bad obstacle avoidance) In this case I would probably take the L50 Pro Ultra but it may be to expensive too so the P50 Pro Ultra could be a cheaper good solution. In any case remember to only buy from Amazon to avoid troubles
r/Dreame_Tech • Dreame comparison of September 2024 robot lineup ->Mova Z50 Ultra, without an addiction ramp, can only handle thresholds up to 22 mm. So yes, you either NEED a ramp or cancel the order and take a robot like Roborock with Adaptlift or Dreame X50/Mova V50 or Mova Z60 Ultra/Dreame Aqua 10 Pro Track (it has a roller mop but won't arrive soon)
r/RobotVacuums • Mova Z50 and 2-3cm thresholds between rooms ->ok... your best option i think that is the mova z50 everyone says that it is really good try it!
r/RobotVacuums • Best one money could get ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
