Dreame - X40 Ultra Series

I am often surprised, and offended at how much difference there is in premium robots (which is what I tend to test, rather than budget or midrange). You should expect, if you pay that much, for a robot to work. This problem is much worse in lawnbots, but there is no condition under which I would purchase a Roomba or Eufy on purpose. Doesn't matter what model. I'm most impressed by Roborock, Dreame and Ecovacs. That said, each model is different. For instance, I thought the X40 was just fine. Didn't blow me out of the water. But I think the X50 is quite good, although it still has some navigation issues. I haven't tested the Monsga line, sorry.

this is easy! Freo Z uses too much water, you have to refill it ALL THE TIME. hard pass. Dreame x40 is.. good... but not great. The S8 MaxV Ultra is truly great.

I did. I thought the x50 was a nice upgrade, but the x40 was ok.

If it makes you feel better L40 and X40 no better

Pleased you are amused. What is the point in telling people bull shit. I've had an L20, L40, X40. The only one with no issues was the L20 and is still going strong. The L40 and X40 were replaced twice. I've had problems with Samsung . . I'm currently running a roborock, useless with obstacle avoidance, excellent on carpet, and a Eufy E28, very good but a very basic app. It isn't just about Dreame it's about giving no bull shit honest opinions

Hmm . . X40 and x50 I tried both poor. L50 best one I've had

Eufy has excellent customer service. They sent me replacement parts for S1 Pro and took a follow-up 2 times to make sure all was working fine. Dreame customer service sucks. I have feeling no 1 over there understand basic English or the translation app they use is joke. I was able to dispute the situation with my credit card and got a refund for $1800. Never buying that crap again. This was my 2nd X40 purchase for my parents.

That would make it non returnable sadly. Weird how it get scratches so easily though because my X40 Ultra has zero scratches after months.

Quick answer: Yes Explanation: Whilst spinning mops were more of a "it maintains a clean floor reasonably well" deal. The rollers are a "I can clean the entire house properly without you doing anything" deal. Some will argue they are worse with dried on stains, which I guess is true, but reality is, with my Aqua 10 has rarely seen a stain which it did not remove on the first pass. Anything from like dirty shoe footprints to oil from cooking it picked up in one pass. (If that botters you, you can just quickly spray the dirty stains with some water before it passes over it, so it is a bit soaked I guess, but in my experience the X40 also had problems with such stains). Now lastly maintenance. And honestly, this is the main issue, right now we are using first gen rollers, which the manufacturers didn't really take time to consider how the products themselves would be cleaned. I found that having it vacuum, and then vacuum and mop was the best way to prevent any debris entering the mopping system, so no need to clean it every week, rather every 2 weeks maybe.

I have a Dreame X40 Pro Ultra. It purports to have this feature, but I've never tested it since I have a cat that goes in its litter box.

We love this thing otherwise. It works great. Got it for about $1600 during a sale. It's still expensive of course, but for our house totally worth it. Never vacuum and mop by hand anymore!

One more thing... On pretty much any of these units, you can designate certain areas to avoid completely. If the dog accidents are always near the pads, you could just designate that whole area off-limits to the vac.

I�ve got the x40 and i�m super happy so far. We have both hard floor and rugs and it cleans them really well.

Hated dog hair the bin is small and it had no option to go back any faster to the base to empty so it would just push piles of hair around till the algorithm told it to go back and empty but it would never retouch the pile it left. they kept telling me to select a function that was not in my menu. so they took it back took months but its gone. and service is 1 email a day after they answer the phone on first ring so one problem will take a week to sort out and they dont want to call you back, just email there comes in around 2 am yours goes back at around 9am and then wait

Only vacuums above $800 will handle that threshold. Anything below will not even attempt it. Outside that the Dreame L40 or X40 and Mova P10 are your best options for $400.

I did. I thought the x50 was a nice upgrade, but the x40 was ok.

I just got an eBay refurbished X40 Ultra. It has been great so far. But I don�t think any robot vacuum can truly replace a handheld vacuum/mop. I tend to think of these as a nice maintenance option to keep the dust bunnies and grime down. But I will still be doing semi regular vacuuming and mopping by hand.

I�m happy with my X40 Ultra. I got it refurbished from EBay

I purchased a refurbished Dreame X40 Ultra from eBay. It�s been super solid. I just got the tricut brush to see if I can get a little bit better performance on carpet with our shedding dogs.

Ya Its so worth it! I bought the L40 for $400 on Amazon. Returned cause the X40 went on sale for $499 with $150 of extras at Costco!

Damn I really wish to have a full review from you on the X40, it's kind of my favorite (bought two, first on December, the second one today, and thank god no need of support just yet) and I always love hearing reviews that compare it to other robot vacuums, because in my eyes and in my experience - it's perfect, yet I hear so many complaints about it that I just keep on praying to never need to use the warranty...�

People also expect a plug in vacuum performance from a tiny Robovac. But yea also pleased with my $500 X40!

Totally worth it get a Mova p10 pro ultra its the same thing as a dreame x40 for a fraction of the price under a different brand. I dont even have kids and it saves ao much time and effort. I was completely against it when my fiance wanted one but i have changes my mind completely since we got it.

If you have the gift card, I dont have one but dont want the e25, Im looking at the mova z60, I just dont want the experience we had with the dreame x40 pushing dog hair around and never really picking it up. we have the bot run everyday a little over half the house twice a week and the main are daily with 2 german shedders well you get it

Roborock saros 10r top of our list Eufy E25 2nd this is already at BF pricing according to eufy Dreame/mova same company and had x40 returned it Narwal not seeing the fantastic reviews from individuals and the onboard bin might be too small for 2000sqft home with 2 shepherds even with daily vac JMHO

I�ve got a Dreame x40, and my sister in law has a Dreame l30. We�re both super happy with them.

Pleased you are amused. What is the point in telling people bull shit. I've had an L20, L40, X40. The only one with no issues was the L20 and is still going strong.

I have the X40 Ultra and really enjoy it.

Yes, don�t spend too much, these extra features are not that great benefit. 40�s will do the job and prices will fall as usual and then u can think about another model because the price fits the benefit. And don�t expect too much. You still have to clean by yourself sometimes.

Recently got a Dreame X40 Ultra, it�s pretty nice. Can�t think of anything else I�d need from a vacuum. I just change the water containers; liquid detergent usage is pretty minimal so it�ll last months. Love that the mops are detachable magnetic pads instead of the velcro type and it automatically washes & dries them at the base station

Hmm . . X40 and x50 I tried both poor. L50 best one I've had

I really appreciate the thorough response man, truly. I hope you never need customer service ???? and it seems to be a global thing with Dreame, as the complaints go from country to country as I hear them...�I just really hope to never need them. And tbh, in my country they didn't bring the Saros 10R, only the 10, so I wasn't so keen in getting it with the vibrating moppad.. Also the retractable Lidar that has expiry times-of-use threw me off a little.. So I ended up considering either another X40 or Ecovacs x8 for the roller-mop, but ecovacs' last release here got destroyed in reviews, and so I just decided to go with what I know (and love, for now lol)�

this is easy! Freo Z uses too much water, you have to refill it ALL THE TIME. hard pass. Dreame x40 is.. good... but not great. The S8 MaxV Ultra is truly great.

New Dreame stores in southern california have the X40 ultra with tri-cut hair brush on sale for $500 until Fathers Day. Just have to call to place the order and they should ship anywhere in the US. Great deal and got one myself!

I just shipped out my x40 they offered me a x50 refirb but i said no. I'm done with dreame and mova is just another division of them. Looking a roborock revo curvx, narwel flow or the ecovac deebot x11 but thier t50 pro max is coming highly recommended with dog hair. still looking

Sounds like its the one, my x40 never got an update to make it empty more often

I just bought the X40, and if what you say is true, your robot should last me at least 10 years, given how well you make your products� Pain point: pet hair getting stuck on wheels and brush, despite tricut. Other than that i am pretty happy so far! P.s. I live in EU, so a nice sale would he nice� why do always US get the best sales?? You could give us some love for having governments that dont hate on China!

I have the dreame x40 ultra. I call it Optimus prime. I love my vacuum. Software is easy and the robot does a pretty good job. I still have to vacuum and mop every now and then, but my apartment is always clean.

The Dreame X40 can really do everything. The object avoidance is great. The navigation is top notch and it uses it's side brunch effectively to get into corners. I've had mine since launch in May of 2024. It's been pretty solid.

Can only speak from my own experience, but I�ve had the X40 since December last year and had no issues with it- apart from a dodgy software update that was fixed in a week. It cleans a large 2 bedroom flat with a short haired dog most days and the communal hallway twice a week all in its stride. The hallway has a set of stairs at the end and never had any problems with its fall avoidance. I would say to use distilled water if like me you live in a hard water area.

I was juiced to get the dreame x40 for 500 bucks USD direct from the Ontario mills store. came with the tri cut brush and the cleaning solution. Not a perfect machine but I am happy with it

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.

Dreame x40 with the hair cutting roller

I have literally the exact opposite experience. X40 has been legendary.

I have two Golden Mountain dogs - Bernese-Golden mixes. The shedding is something else. All hardwood. I just picked up a Dreame X40 with a tricut brush. Plan is to have it run every night. So far so good after a few nights, but I suspect I�ll be changing the bag every week. I think as long as it goes every night, it should stay ahead of it. Was $499 on Black Friday sale.

too many issues and never solved the first problem and then the second started

I have the S1 Pro. It would do a much better job then the X40 regarding mopping and have navigation that's at least as good. But the X40 as a massive edge in corner cleaning and vacuuming on carpet.

I have a Dreame X40 ultra. I live in a 1 bedroom apartment with 2 sheddy dogs and it does an ok job on carpet and a pretty good job on hardwood. I bought it refurbished on Amazon for around $700

I've got a dreamtech which has self cleaning mops and it does pretty good. I've also got 2 kids and toys all over the floor and it barely gets stuck.

I am often surprised, and offended at how much difference there is in premium robots (which is what I tend to test, rather than budget or midrange). You should expect, if you pay that much, for a robot to work. This problem is much worse in lawnbots, but there is no condition under which I would purchase a Roomba or Eufy on purpose.

But I think the X50 is quite good, although it still has some navigation issues. I haven't tested the Monsga line, sorry.

I have a Dreame X40 Ultra and run it on a scheduled vacuum and mop every morning. Works well for 2 pugs that always shed!

If you can go to Costco the Robovac 508 is the Dreame X40 Ultra for $499 with about $150 worth of extras. If you want to stay at $400 I would suggest the L40 Ultra, personal preference but alot of this sub likes the P10 which is also a great vacuum. Tbh Mova and Dreame are like Kia and Hyundai, both use the same parts, same chassis, share ownership. So you can't really go wrong with either. They are basically the same unit.
