## What reviewers found

### Dreame D20 Plus

- Vacuum Wars (2.90 Vacuum Wars stars): Removed 93% of embedded sand and 91% of flattened pet hair with 0% long hair wrap, and estimated about 2,761 sq ft per charge. It avoided 0 of 24 obstacles, crevice pickup was below average and mopping scored below average on dried stains. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/dreame-d20-plus-review/)
- Vacuum Chef (95/100): Hands on review of a unit supplied by Dreame: strong cleaning on carpet, rugs and hard floors and good tangle resistance, but small or low objects were bumped and it reached about 74 dB at max suction.

### Shark Matrix Plus 2 in 1 (RV2610WA)

- TechRadar: Measured 85 to 110 min runtime and 46 dB in low mode. First LiDAR map was accurate in under 10 min and it never got stuck, but mopping was only average and the base lasted about two weeks, not 60 days. Subscores: Value 4/5, Design 4/5, Performance 4/5, App 3/5, Battery 5/5. [Source](https://www.techradar.com/home/robot-vacuums/shark-matrix-plus-2-in-1-robot-vacuum-review)
- T3: Tested the UK RV2620WAUK, which T3 says looks virtually the same as the US model. First run finished without snags, normal vacuuming was quiet with a loud burst when emptying, and mopping used a modest amount of water. Praised the app; noted a short power cable and imprecise docking. [Source](https://t3.com/home-living/vacuum-cleaners/shark-matrix-plus-robot-vacuum-and-mop-review)
