## What reviewers found

### Dreame D30 Ultra

- Vacuum Wars (3.29 Vacuum Wars stars): Carpet deep clean score 84 (78 average), estimated 1,831 sq ft per charge, but 61% pet hair pickup, 8 of 24 obstacles avoided, and stain scores of 60 (dried) and 40 (coffee) against 108 and 94 averages. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/dreame-d30-ultra-review/)
- Fone Arena: India review of the same 25,000 Pa model: praised the 4 cm MopExtend arm, self cleaning washboard and fast charging, cleaning 120 to 140 m2 per pass in vacuum and mop mode; noted the TriCut brush is sold separately in most regions.

### Narwal Freo Z10 Turbo

- Techaeris (9.4/10): Strong suction on low pile rugs and grout, excellent mopping with good edge reach, and up to 210 minutes on hardwood, but it missed objects under 2 cm and took odd routes between rooms. [Source](https://techaeris.com/2026/06/30/narwal-freo-z10-turbo-review/)
- Gizmodo: Solid, very quiet vacuuming that outperformed many pricier robots and great battery life, ending a 3 hour vacuum and mop of 750 sq ft with about 40% left, but so so mopping that spread a ketchup spill and clunky app spot cleaning.
