What reviewers found
Dreame X60 Ultra
- Senses (Sweden) (9/10): Called the warm water mopping very impressive and saw it avoid a sock, tennis ball and stuffed toy and boost power under a dusty bed. Downsides were price, a large dock and costly bags. No lab measurements. Source
- iTWire (Australia): Saw it climb about 4 cm steps, consistent with Dreame's 4.5 cm single step rating. A 5 cm nail stopped one run, the app's nested menus were hard to learn, and the word okay on phone calls woke the voice assistant. Dreame supplied the unit. Source
iRobot Roomba Plus 505 Combo
- Tom's Guide: Mapped the home in 5 to 7 minutes, avoided shoes and toys, and had no dog hair tangles over 20+ runs. Measured about 65 dB in auto mode and 87 dB when the dock empties the bin. Spot clean was less thorough and the app sometimes glitched. Source
- New Atlas: After one to two months in a family home, praised wall and corner mopping and low upkeep, but found it noisy, saw hair wrap the brush ends, and saw it swallow socks and cables now and then. Called it a great buy at about $599. Source
