## What reviewers found

### Dreame Matrix10 Ultra

- Vacuum Wars (3.65/5): Lab tests found 80% sand removal from carpet, 92% flattened pet hair pickup, 0% hair wrap, 19 of 24 obstacles avoided and a combined mopping score of 29 against a 22 average; coverage was about 757 sq ft per charge against a 1,117 sq ft average and crevice pickup was weak. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/dreame-matrix10-ultra-review/)
- TechRadar: Mapped a large village hall and open plan home accurately and mopped hard floors with no streaks; carpet results were good but left more debris than expected in a heavy debris test, and the app was slow and overwhelming.
