Dreame X40 Ultra on Amazon: geni.us/Ebo1A7z
Definitely the huge con is the price. best to wait for a deal like amazon prime day and black friday.
Even then, it'll have to be 40-50% off for it to be worth it. Seeing as though there are multiple high-end models from other brands that are $700 less with all the same features
@@Miked1332Omni x1 pro at 799$ and goes on sale for less is best for 2024

Dreame X30 released in March
Dreame X40 released in May
Dreame X40 Pro Ultra is already available for pre-order in China. Its biggest notable upgrade is the ability to make itself shorter so that it can fit under tight furniture. It does this by sinking the laser turret into the main body and continuing to navigate with VSLAM while under the furniture (there is a demo video on youtube).
their product release cycle is too quick and concerning tbh
@@disciprine That is because Dreame trying to dethrone Roborock and aggressively going after their flagships.
January (CES) Roborock reveals their new flagship S8 MaxV with new flex-arm feature. Dreame completes the X40 two months later with the same Flexi-Arm feature and upped every single spec of the S8 (higher suction, higher mop pad washing temperature etc). You can see this when comparing the spec lists side by side. As a die hard Roborock fan I can honestly say I am torn between the X40 and the S8 Max V since they are both similar.
Now Dreame is giving the Roborock S8 MaxV a headshot by upping the game with the X-40 Pro with even better specs and a robotic laser turret (check the video on youtube "Dreame X-40 Pro Ultra Sweeping) So the idea is to shrink the height down to 88 mm (3.46 inches) by lowering the laser tower dynamically when needed. The good news is that Roborock struck back. They built a new flagship to to tackle the X40-Pro Ultra and its new innovative feature. It's called the Roborock V20. Since the X-40's strong point was shrinking to get under furniture Roborock decided to build the V20 even shorter. They achieved this by abandoning the laser tower and deigning a new laser navigation system that uses multiple laser systems (front/back).
So we can assume there will eventually be a vacuum wars video X-40 Pro Ultra vs V20.
@@disciprine china moves fast. roborock v20 is basically a x40. dreame is an entire generation ahead in western market
Quick release cycles can cause beta software (since not tested long term) and difficult to find replacement parts.
It's crazy. I've been looking to buy one but every time I look to buy there's a new flagship. The worst of it is they're not available here in Australia (latest we have is still just the L20 ultra!?) and I know these have features I want so do I wait and hop we get them sometime soon? Or will they be superceded every couple of months and I'm just wasting my time waiting? Ugh.
Have you tested the eufy S1?
Please do a Eufy S1 review!
Your videos are literally my favorite on UA-cam! All of my vacuum and mop purchases in the last 3 years have been based on your test results! Thank you for keeping everything so scientific!
Yay! Thank you!
I thought they only added one thing and asked an insane price for it, that's why I'm grateful you do a decent comparison on all these robo-vacuums that show the true difference. Thanks! Looking forward to the Ecovacs video.
Did you test the new brush roll that can be swapped out for it? The one that cuts hair actively as it spins. I havent seen anyone talk about and it's been available for a couple months now.
I was holding out for this review but ended up pulling the trigger with Dreame’s early bird special. I’ve been super happy with it so far, and even more now that I was able to get it for the early bird price with the tricut brush and accessory kit. Thank you for the amazing reviews as always!!
Check the rubber protective pad on the front brush. Mine Came Off in a week. It is a cheap glue.
Curious if you have an upcoming review for the Eufy S1 Pro?
X40 might have another competetor, the Eufy S1 pro, i recently discovered this by just a dads live stream, hope you get into review with that one too! Its about to have its public release soon so i hope you get one to review!
I'm holding out for S1 Pro reviews before I decide on one or the other. Have a S8 Ultra I regret getting instead of a Eufy X10 Pro :p
Looks good, I love competition between all the companies, it allows them to innovate further to always be ahead of the game, looking forward to the ECOVACs review!!
Ive been waiting for this review!
Great to hear!
@@VacuumWars u should do a review on the iRobot roomba combo essential and mop. I’ve seen this around and want a review and it’s about $200 so i feel if it’s good it could be good in the budget robot vacuum category in a good spot
Are you planning on reviewing the switchbot S10 soon as well? The separate water doc seems like an interesting idea.
Hey @VaccumWars, i think you need to test the Versatile TriCut Brush for the X40 Ultra. Maybe it will solve your long hair pickup problem?
I've had the X40 Ultra for 2 days and I am loving it! I am blown away by its ability to navigate tight spaces like my table + chairs while simultaneously achieving near 100% coverage with vacuum and mop, the extending arms really are game changers. Maybe its a dumb thing to say in a market where you get a new release basically every week but for me at least this is end game - This robovac produces close to perfect cleaning results while needing basically no maintenance.
Have you been able to find a place to get legit parts? I'm concerned about buying it because I can't find dreamee sold parts for this.
Excited to see what you think about the new mopping system on the Eufy S1 pro.
The shape and radar installation method of Eufy determine that its navigation and obstacle avoidance performance won't be very good, similar to Ecovacs X2
are you currently testing Eufy's S1 Pro? it's the latest flagship by Eufy
not keen on its looks also it does not seem a match for even the L20
@@UA-camHero666i just got my S1 Pro yesterday and it’s been absolutely incredible on my hard floors. On carpet it’s only slightly above average, but for hard floors nothing will do better than the S1. It’s seriously amazing for hard floors.
It replaced my Q Revo which previously did a daily, double pass mopping run (with detergent) in my kitchen. My floors never quite felt clean after it mopped though and lately they even started to look visibly dirtier than usual. I always thought it was doing a decent job at mopping, but just to test it I set it on one last mopping run before I got the S1 Pro. After it finished I had the S1 Pro mop the same area. I’m not even joking when I say my floors felt 10x cleaner, and they were visibly cleaner too. I then emptied the dirty water tank from the S1 to see how dirty the water was… it was literally almost black.
That alone tells me how well it mops compared to every other bot with spinning or vibrating mop pads. They just don’t even compare to having an actual roller mop that’s continuously cleaned with clean water while dirty water and debris is squeegeed out into its onboard dirty water tank.
Aside from that the obstacle avoidance is also incredibly good. It avoided cables, socks, etc. with no problems. Eufy really knocked it out of the park with the S1.
You really need to do an Eufy S1 Pro review and then hopefully after that a S1 Pro versus X40 comparison. You guys do great work on this channel!
There should be a mopping test for tiles with grout!
Agreed. Grout lines are a tough thing to clean
Agreed!
Hi Great reviews, want to ask a question regarding this amazing robot, in (vacuum & mop) when detect liquid on floor will the robot (vacuum & mop) or stop vacuum just mop?
Best robot vacuum I’ve ever owned. No vacuum will ever get 100% of the dirt but this one does an amazing job with so many smart features. My home has never been cleaner.
Great to hear that!
It's amazing to see how far Dreame has come. They felt so unknown like 1-2 years ago, but now they're really getting the attention they deserve. I have no regrets after switching to the L20 Ultra last year.
I've been considering the L20 Ultra. Do you have any concerns about reliability?
@@frp1276 So far so good. I run mine about 4 times a week, twice in the living room and twice in the kitchen. As long as you take care of it by keeping the sensors clean and checking for clogs in the dust bin and brush roller, it’ll continue to perform well. Be sure to clean the base station washboard at least once a month too.
Hi,
I think you should mention the ability to plum the robots to water and waste (great feature when it is available)
Also, please talk a bit more about maintaining the base, how effective the auto cleaning and how easy it is to clean manually.
For the moping function how about trying chalk, washable makers and water colored paint? Make one line of each and see how much is removed from each line. Chalk being the easiest to clean followed by the maker and lastly the paint.
Love your videos!
Thank you!
Any plans to review the Eufy S1 Pro? There are a bunch of reviews out but yours is the only one I am waiting for before ordering 😊
Would love for you to review the Tapo RV30 Plus. Whilst the mopping leaves a lot to be desired the vacuum with 4L of auto empty seems like a really great budget option for a vacuum robot.
I appreciate the humility! Keep up the great work!
I had never heard of Dreame before you crowned the L20 Ultra the best vacuum of 2023 - so I bought one back in December and it's been amazing. Now I want an X40 Ultra! 😁😭
Same!!!😂
Hahaha same, the l20 has been amazing.
X40 is nice, but still no major improvements worth upgrading for.
Any chance you plan on doing a Eufy S1 pro review soon?
For your future robot vacuum reviews would you be able to do some tests on the bin auto empty features with pet hair and configuration options? I got the Roborock S7 Max last year which works pretty well but the auto empty on it is pretty annoying when you have heavily shedding dogs, the only time the bin empties is when it finishes a job so you have to schedule each individual room at a different time to trick it into emptying after every room, also since the roborock empties itself through the same port that the brush roller is in there are some issues if the hair gets compacted in the bin which leads to it not fully emptying.
Overall the machine and your review of it are great but I'm on the lookout for an upgrade with a bigger dustbin and more reliable empty method along with a fill/drain line option or notifications when they're running low. Thanks!
Super input. Thank you.
I have the X30 and love the unit itself but them coming out with new units so quickly and not having parts for the last one is very worrisome, even the cleaning solutions have been hard to get.
Just use standard floor cleaner
Please test the EUFY S1 Pro!
Nice review! Did you try the tri brush regarding pet hair? And are you going to review the Eufy S1 Pro?
The shape and radar installation method of Eufy S1 Pro determine that its navigation and obstacle avoidance performance won't be very good, similar to Ecovacs X2
@@Willandwish All the reviews would disagree with you. It has Best in Class object avoidance
im still in love with my x40 - its the best !
how about the app? any mention about the near perfect object avoidance of eufy?
are you guys reviewing the dyson g1 wash? i just bought a tineco s5 steam... due to the steam coming off the floor and keeping it clean and dry afterwards however this g1 looks like it drys the floors right after... i think i have 30 days to retunr per amazon but id love to see you guys thoughts
Hello can i ask what is your favorite corded vacuum stick? Atleast 5 vacuums. Thanks
Another great review - I'd love to see a comparison or any review of the Yeedi (newcomer?)
Can you test robo vacuums for things like door still hight, carpet fringe and effect of mirrors and magnets and hight power device on their navigation. The ones I had all loss thier mind when getting near mirrors or magnets or get stuck when passing door still from one room to another.
Great review. Thank you. If this connected directly to plumbing, I would be mostly sold. I already have ecovacs deebots and had great luck with mine so I chose to get the t30. A lot cheaper too.
Any thoughts on the yet to be released Matic?
You mention that longs hairs got tangled on the brush and said it's typical. However no such issue was mentioned with the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It's a very important parameter for me. Does this mean it was not an issue with the S8? Or did you just not mention it?
I had the s8 and returned it. We have myself and 3 daughters in our house plus dogs with lots of fur (doodle and old English). It did not clean well, didn't pick up hole punched sized papers, and the hair didn't get tangled on the brush per say but on the ends. I would have to remove the rotating brushes and the ends to try and cut the hair off. I wasn't pleased for the price.
Next time you review a vacuum you should review the eureka Omniverse
I have the Dream L10. While is does a great job over the last two months the mop pads (fabric part) have been coming off the plastic spinners. I believe the velcro on the plastic is breaking down and not gripping the fabric enough
That is disappointing. Thank you for sharing that here.
I would truly love a vacuum like this with my 2 kids and 4 dogs and 4 cats but I just can't afford that much for a robot vacumm, maybe someday the price for such a vacuum will be at an acceptable cost for me. Any way I just wanted to say that I think your videos are awesome I love how honest and educational you and your teams videos are.
Is it possible to have different maps for different floors? How does it work with different floors in general? I have a 3 floor house and obv I don’t wanna buy three vacuum cleaners
Would you consider a bagged vacuum video? I'm so tired of bagless.
Is the cleaning solutions used for the onboard tank to clean thr floor. Many claim it is only used to clean the pads and uses water only on the floors.
No, solutiom is auto mixed in the clean water for mopping.
@vacuumwars did you try the heated mop cleaning ?
Are you reviewing a Eufy S1 pro soon?
I want to upgrade my roborock S7 to maybe this because of the rotating pads.
Edit: I’ve been seeing that the eufy s1 pro is where you want to go
Just received mine 2 days ago after getting it with a coupon for 1500 which is cheaper than the s8 maxV. The main reason why this is the best vacuum for the near future and a point you and the rest of the youtube community failed to mention is the X40 can get hooked up to the house plumbing with a kit. This makes the robot the most maintenance and versatile robot on the market. (roborock does have the option to purchase different robot that does the same but then lacks the tanks) the X40 is 2 in one.
What coupon did you use to get it that low of a price?
@@michaelsipah X40ULTRA it's supposed to expire yesterday or today. I did it on Amazon
The Hookup and Drainage system is currently only available in China. No where else in world.
S8 and S7 could also get hooked up to plumbing, that's not something new
@@michaelsipah $1519 was the price until May 19th for those who preordered it. Not anymore.
Can it connect to a drainage system?
The concern with Dreame the quick lack of support for their "older" models (L20) that was released in the Q4 '23
what about integrating it into HomeAssistant? Does the robot still work without an internet connection?
Thank you.
I said the same thing when I tested and reviewed it 2 weeks ago. You take it out of the box and it handles the rest. No other robovac I've tried has the same level of form and function. And the price will drop fast. Don't see any robovac this Gen rivaling it yet. But maybe soon.
Awesome review! Thank you for sharing
How does it stack up against Roborocks S8 MaxV Ultra?
@@mil3761 i am doing a side by side right now and Vacuum wars did a great reveiw on the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. The Dreame X40 mopping is WAY better simply because it can remove its mop pads and the mop pads can extend outwards. and the HOT WATER WASHING is much hotter on the Dreame and it dries faster.
The S8 MaxV initial mopping is good but after that, it doesnt do a great job cleaning those pads (much thinner, no cushion in the pads) for the 2nd or 3rd mopping run. For 1000 sq foot hardfloors, the unit should clean those brushed 2-3 times AUTOMATICALLY at your assigned intervals and since the Dreame X40 cleans the pads better, you have better mopping especially after the initial 200 sq ft of cleaning relative to the Roborock S8.
Be awared that the detergent is only used for cleanin the mop pads and not added to the water tank. The ads are very discrete on this matter.
Can the waterpump handle some detergents? In that case just drop a few ml directly in the watertank?
Best channel on UA-cam
You should try the Deebot t30 pro not the t30S because the T30 pro has a more compact station
Need the eufy s1!
So between the "Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra" and the "dreame X40 ultra", the dreame is the better choice?
How are the app options for dreame? i've heard/seen that roborock has a TONNN of different options in there app
Considering the similarity in price, I would go with the x40. They did improve the object avoidance with this model, and Roborock went with the unfortunate decision to go with the vibrating mop instead of the superior dual rotating mop design (although in the end, what matters is how much pressure is exerted on the mop head). I would wait on a review of the Eufy S1 Pro, it will cost significantly less and will feature some really interesting and new technologies that will surely get copied by other manufacturers next generation. And Eufy's object avoidance is industry leading.
You must have the cleanest floors in the world. Thanks for the review.
What is the name of that upcoming Ecovacs Robot? I haven’t heard anything about new version coming out after the X2 Omni?
X2 omni barely got released. However it is a huge flop due to navigation issues. They wont be releasing X3 omni unitl next year.
I personally need the auto fill and drainage feature of the dockstation, this doesn't seem to have it
It does, but he did not mention it.. as it’s currently only available in China.. and no where else in the world unfortunately
Can a X40 robo use the L20 base station? Wondered if they are swappable without having to buy the base station as well
Unfortunate there wasn't a crevice pick up test mention during this review. Especially considering the suction and airflow of this X40.
Too bad
When are you going to review the T30?
there is also a model called x40 pro ultra with 13,000 suction, which im currently using, i have to say it's awesome. the best you can get atm.
Thanks for the info!
Why are so few reviewers calling out the X40 for the fact that it doesn’t activate the side brush at all on carpet let alone swing it out to get into corners and up to room edges? Because no one with wall to wall carpets would ever want the corners or edges of their carpets cleaned? I really want to buy the X40 but unless Dreame fix that I’m probably going to go with the Roborock s8 MaxV Ultra.
I’m with you. I asked the same question.
@@tyr0n313 It's bugging me more and more with every review I see that says the X40 in the lead for best flagship cleaner money can buy. That makes me ever more frustrated that the X40 is increasingly becoming the one I want to buy if it wasn't for this side-brush issue. I suppose the s8 MaxV Ultra isn't that far behind but I wish I didn't feel locked out of what I perceive as the even better choice because of this side brush issue.
Unfortunately, it is. This is a big disadvantage for Dreame. I have carpet everywhere in my house. Why would I need a robot that doesn't use a side brush on carpets? A crazy act from Dreame.
@@msamarskij980 I’m also not that optimistic that Dreame will fix it. I found a thread on Reddit about this issue and one commenter said he was one of the testers on the beta test before release and loads of testers complained to Dreame about the side brush not being used on carpets but Dreame obviously never listened to that feedback. I really think that every single reviewer should call Dreame out on this one so that just maybe they might finally fix it in a firmware update.
The Dreame X40 Ultra doesn't swing its side brush on carpets to prevent dirt scattering, avoid tangling, and improve battery efficiency. The side brush on carpet scatters dirt to places it already passed. You will see soon all the flagships will also implement it.
I'm just wondering, does it also go under cabinets? What is the minimum height he needs?
I was very sceptical about purchasing the product at its price point however heard fantastic reviews from friends who had purchased it. A month on from owning it, I'm very happy. It replaced my RoboRock S7. Definite Game Changer
Which robot is the best right now for an apartment budget up to 2000$ but want something good if possible to get cheaper even better just want the best in the market
anyone in UK managed to get their hands on one of these? will dreame even ship to UK?
Does it have a water bin or does it need to go to station to wet mop pads.
it has an 80 ml internal water tank
Can I have a suggestion, include how noisy the robot vacuums in your test, people like me cares. I work at home and some of them are so loud I have to send them away from my meeting.
Hello, when is the Ecovacs T30s review out? Been waiting to decide what to buy. Thanks in advance!
Tomorrow! Thank you for asking!
Thank you!
@@VacuumWarswow that will make my day! Thanks
Does it have to connect to the cloud or can it be run without connecting to the internet?
Can you review the narwal t10
Could you pls test the eufy S1 Pro? 👍🏼
Do the t30s please
The dreame x40 ultra hass the most advanced robot vaccum features like side brush extend. Lifts side brush up when senses spills. 12,000 pascals takes the lead. The dreame has the technology compared to the x30 and the cfm compared to the l20. A huge con is the price.
damn you gonna make me a really broke home owner. but 10000 likes for you bruh. i enjoy your objective and non-biased reviews.
Thank you!
Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t hear any mention of the side brush not running while on carpet. Is that a setting or has it been fixed? I can’t imagine having a robot vacuum, much less one at $1900, that can’t clean the edges or corners on carpet floors.
Unfortunately, it is. This is a big disadvantage for Dreame. I have carpet everywhere in my house. Why would I need a robot that doesn't use a side brush on carpets? A crazy act from Dreame.
I don’t have carpet but I don’t see any point for the side brush use on the carpet. The side brush purpose to sweep and pull the things into the vacuum. It works best on the hard wood as it sweeps things into vacuum.
@@vishkumar the brush works great on carpet and sweeps away debris, which is not possible in the X40. how will the X40 clean up the garbage around the perimeter of the walls where there are thin carpets everywhere in the rooms?
Did it actually wash with 60 degree water? Does the self cleaning station work as advertised? Thank you!
yes it has hot water washing. Self cleaning is extremely good. I used mine for a week. I checked pads yesterday and they almost looked new with no dirt visible,
Hi, can you review the new Samsung bespoke jet ai robot? Eager to watch your review on that.
We had to wait for it to come out but we have finally been able to order it!
Any plans to review the Eufy S1 Pro?
We are using it in our studio now!
I will make my final decision once you review the Eufy S1 Pro.
The problem is obviously the price. And once a newer one comes out these are not to find anywhere even at lower prices. But man, I’d love one of these new flagship models
12000pa only works on manual room cleaning mode. Probably to conserve battery.
$1100 on aliexpress with plumb kit. I got it on anniversary sale but its probably still way cheaper not on sale though. The catch is you need to bypass the region lock.
The new vacuum cleaners have self cleaning and fresh water mopping. Should arrive in the US in 1-2 yes
You should compare this to the X10 omni pro. From a price point standpoint, you can’t beat the X10 pro Omni.
Oh wow! The X40 looks incredible!!!!
It did amazing!
@@VacuumWars I think the next step for robots is something like the Eufy Mach S1 with the Roller Style mop!
can it run Crysis?
Do you think Romba now out of competition ?
I own a L20 Ultra and I'm mostly satisfied with it. But in over 7-8 months since I have it, not been a single firmware upgrade to fix the bugs (and there are quite a few). It seems Dreame is focused on launching new products on speed mode without taking care also on the existing owners and fixing the bugs or bringing some improvements. Before to L20 Ultra I had iRobot i7+, better performance and features are clear over i7+ but from iRobot I had periodic firmware upgrades with improvements and bug fixies.
