Dreame D10 Plus - this is the one to buy! 

It will be great. I love this robot. I gave it to my daughter to take to college and I want it back lol.

How is your D10 Plus doing with the kitty hair so far, @Simon Runner? I'm thinking about picking one of these up too.

@@bnice7 Oh sadly i had to return it. It didn't quite work due to my apartment being too "complicated" for it to navigate :(

@@bnice7 It's doing great. Dreame's self empty dock design is, in my opinion, the best in the industry.

It's probably very similar to Q5 and much better than the Roomba. I wouldn't worry about furniture.

Depends on what you want to spend, but this D10 is a great choice.

I'm reviewing it now, releasing video soon. It's pretty great, but they didn't put a light on it, so it's not good at object avoidance at night. Dumb. Also, it's as good a mop as anything out there except the Roborock. Apparently scrubbing beats spinning. But not having to add detergent to the water is nice, and the detergent thing lasts a long time.

I reached out to them, but they haven't responded. I've had some issue lately that prevented me from making videos, for a couple of months. Maybe that's why.

D10+, no question. The Shellbot is good, but the D10 has a better app and a phenomenal auto-empty dock.

Unless you really need object avoidance, like really. But then I'd get something more expensive with a camera and AI.

When you say “really need object avoidance”, what do you specifically mean? I am deciding between z10 pro and d10+ and the only important difference seems to be this. I would like it to avoid for example toys and still clean around, but is that what object avoidance is about? What will d10 do when it encounters a toy? Thanks and sorry for the dumb question….

@@MrRoombato please 🙏

It depends if you want mopping. If you do, the S7. If not, D10+. The Z10 has laser based object avoidance and costs more, but the D10 cleans hard floors a tiny bit better and is less expensive, and otherwise the same. I'd get the D10.

I had the same dilemma. I have just got the S7. But I am scared that it will be a hassle to empty its dustbin myself every time... Maybe having the self-emptying bin compensates a mediocre mopping in the everyday use...

@@MrRoombato You are killing me here... Was set on the D7 but not fussed re the mopping, TBH the mopping features on these robots seem more hassle than a manual mop, and the D10+ is a lot cheaper. OTOH I like the bagless autoclean station for the D7 and it seems to tangle less (lot of long hair in our place). The decision paralysis is real :)

@@blackpaw29 You mean S7? Unless you mean the MaxV, I would actually get the Dreame. The auto empty system is significantly more robust. At least in my experience.

@@blackpaw29 ...or the S8, which made improvements to that system.

I contacted them and they didn't want to send me one, so no. :)

Wow.. at least you tried your best. Thanks a lot.

@@jonnylee8538 I asked them several times! But I'll ask them again.

L10 pro doesn't have a self empty dock, so definitely this.

Nope.

Thanks my bro

@@Noobfantasy you're welcome A-bro-ham Lincoln.

You get two, one for each floor.

Sorry you had experience. Every Dreame product I have has been flawless and is still running strong, some almost a year of daily use later. And I don't expect them to fail anytime soon. Perhaps not ever within several years of expected service life.

This by far.

@@MrRoombato why

I am not aware of anything they don't send me to test. So it doesn't exist. :)

@@MrRoombato lmao it does exist 🫢

Prove it!

@@MrRoombato search it up. RU-vid hates links. They remove my comments with links

@@MrBlueCreeper Those are fake news. CGI.

Well it doesn't have or claim to have object avoidance, so that's to be expected. As for carpet...if you have a lot of it, this is the wrong robot for you. The only mop and vac that will work for you, I mean a real one not your typical wet pad dragger, is the Roborock s7 or s7 maxV. They can lift the mop and vacuum carpets, then lower it again on hard floors.

There are two kinds of mopping robots. Real mopping robots (S7, S7 MaxV, X1 OMNI, W10, etc.) and "mopping" robots, like this one. If it drags an unmoving pad behind it, it's not a mopping robot. As far as I'm concerned, these robots don't mop. There is no reason at all to use them for "mopping." So to me, these are robot vacuums only. The "mop" is a marketing gimmick. This is the best pure vacuum robot I've tested since the Z10, and considering its price, this is definitely the one to buy if you want a robot vacuum. If you want a mop or vac/mop combo, you'll need to spend a lot more money.
