Why is it the best? Simple. It doesn't screw up. It always gets the job done. I never have to empty the bin myself, and there are no bugs, at least not that's I've noticed. I don't care if some other robot does a better job at everything, if it bugs out or scratches my floor or gives me ANY headaches whatsoever, it sucks and it goes in the closet.

A viewer named Rick E made a comment critical of the Z10, and I wanted to respond to it, but either Rick himself or KZfaq took it down. If it was KZfaq, I don't know why they'd do it, it was a valid comment. Rick mentioned that his robot gave him a brush stall error on medium pile carpeting. This doesn't surprise me, since this is the same company that used to make Roborocks and they are notorious for that issue. Kinda like the error 26 on Roombas. Rick, I do plan to set up a medium pile carpet test and so I will test this robot on "normal" carpet. You said, "This is the best robot you've ever tested?" Yes, it is, because it hasn't given me any errors at all, because bin is emptied every time, and because the app is simple but bug free. What is the use of fancy features if the robot cannot complete a cleaning run reliably because of app and navigation/cleaning algorithm bugs?

I have the Dreame L10, I think it's the same as the Z10 but without the auto empty station. The vacuum motor sounds the same, the app does not speak very well, I had to get sighted help to set the suction to max but I can start a clean with it which is all I really need. The self empty docks are good but they definitely take up more space which is why I chose the L10, when you have several lidar bots, you can tell a difference with their navigation. I recently replaced my dining room table with a smaller one, it has two chairs and when they are pushed in, there is not enough room for a robot to go under the table. I have two of my robots docked against the wall that you can easily get to if you go around the table. When I tell the Eufy Robovac X8 to head home, it does try to go under the table briefly, then once it realizes that it can't, it goes around the table and docks itself. The Dreame L10 takes much longer, it tries much harder to find a way to go under the table between the chairs, eventually it realizes that it can't and goes around the table but the Eufy robovac figures it out much quicker, I'm not sure if the object avoidance on the Dreame L10 makes a difference with that or not.

Would love to see a head to head between this and the new Roomba j7.

@MrRoombato 2 жыл бұрын

I can do that for you right now. First, the self-empty bins are comparable...the Dreame's is better, but in the real world, both get the job done. In terms of cleaning performance, the j7 is the same as the i7, so on hard floors, it's a little better, and on carpets it's a little worse, though I can only compare what you see (as opposed to deep cleaning). Object avoidance will be mixed...the j7 will avoid poop better while the Z10 will avoid cords and laces better. Navigation wise, the j7 is just as primitive as the i7, except that the light means you can run it in the dark, which is very nice. But mapping will still take forever and it will lack the Z10's precision and will often get lost and confused. If avoiding pet poop is your highest priority, get the j7. Otherwise, the Z10 is the clear choice.

No, probably not. I think the z10 is a better robot overall, and that the s9 will scratch your wood and laminate floors (how much depends on a lot of factors), but I think the s9 is the better cleaner, though not by that much. If you have a very simple floor plan, the s9 won't have any problems, but if your house is complicated, you may be better off with a LIDAR robot.

Hi Mr. Roombato, I have a question! I’ve had the room a j7 for about a little over a month and I’ve been having serious problems with it. My house has a black and white color scheme with black doors and door frames as well as white and black patterned rugs. The J7 seems to frequently get lost and give me errors. I think it’s the black doors which confuses it, and it requires a lot of light for it to clean without giving up and returning to the base. For 3200sqft, it takes 5-6hours to clean which seems absurd. Plus, despite multiple mapping runs and everyday cleaning, it still has yet to make a correct map of my house. I’ll spare you the full list of issues (there are more) but because of that I’m looking for an alternative that can preferably avoid wires. I was assured that as the ai learns, the j7 would improve, but I’ve been having these issues with the obstacle detection on and off. I’ve been looking at the deebot n8+ and t8+ but am worried about the buggy app and navigation. My home has a large central area with hardwood and rooms with carpet. I’m open to any robot vaccum you recommend. I just hope it’s sold by best buy so I can use the store credit from the j7 return. Also, I have a cat that likes to pull out tufts of fur while grooming Sorry for the long question!

@MrRoombato 2 жыл бұрын

I highly recommend the Z10 Pro. My only hesitation is that some people reported that the brush stalls on carpet, which is an issue people used to have with Roborock. Then again, most people don't have this problem. My suggestion is, buy the Z10 Pro on Amazon, see if it has this issue with your carpet, and if not, keep it. I only have very low pile carpet in my house (including that rug I use to test carpet cleaning) and I haven't had a single issue with the Z10. Not one. It's kinda spooky and I'm waiting for it to explode, but...that's how it's been.

@MrRoombato 2 жыл бұрын

The W10, all the way. No question. First, the vacuuming is not redundant. Think of it as a second cleaning pass. Second, what if you want a room mopped outside of the schedule? With the W450 you would have to send your Z10 first, then bring the W450 there and hope you can somehow confine it to that room. With the W10 you just open the app and pick a room. Third, the W10 will clean on a schedule, without you having to carry it around, and all you have to do is dump and fill water and empty a dust bin everyone now and then (I empty mine once a week).

The S7mVU does have a real mop and it works great, at least as well as the W10 with one caveat...it only mops that well when in mop only mode (they chose to not allow the overlapping turn mode in combination with the vacuum). I have mine going out vacuuming only and then mopping only (since it does it at night this doesn't bother me at all). The big advantage is of course the object avoidance. The disadvantage is that all of your eggs are in one basket. If you're not worried about poop, I would keep what you have.

If you want mopping, yes. But you should get the Ultra dock if you want mopping. It's a game changer. Alternatively, Dreame just released their D10 Plus, which is like a Z10 without object avoidance (laser object avoidance is mostly a gimmick). You could get that for less, and then get a Dreame W10 if you decide you want mopping. That would be a fantastic combo.

The Q11 has been buggy, but I think they've gotten it mostly squared away at this point. Compared to the Z10, it's a lot quieter, more prone to hair tangles and the self-empty bin is not as good, but, it's one of the better ones on the market and aside from it not doing as well in tests or having some stuff in it when I check, it's never made me empty the robot's bin by hand, which means in the real world, it works just as well.

@MrRoombato 2 жыл бұрын

It's not despite the rubber brush, it's because of it, and the free floating brush housing. As for why I don't recommend it, I was concerned when it first came out that it would scratch floors, because of both of the above--the rubber brush becomes sandpaper when it's covered in dirt and the floating housing pushes it firmly into the floor and drags the housing itself around. And since it's come out, I've had multiple subscribers report that it scratches the hell out of their floors. Some sent photos, and they were pretty obvious. The second and far lesser reason is that the self-empty bin doesn't work very well. I don't know why Roborock chose to suck out the dirt through the brush housing, but it seems like a dumb idea. Now I'm only basing that assessment on other reviewers and their testing, as I have no interest in buying one, nor would I run one in my house because of the scratching. And since I've opened my mouth about this issue, I doubt roborock would ever send me one.

@donnnnn9196 2 жыл бұрын

@@MrRoombato Thanks for the detailed reply. I was hoping the floor scratching you had warned about was the reason. For me it's an OK trade-off and I don't care about self-emptying docks, although the dust bin being redesigned to accommodate the dock and being harder to manually empty looks annoying. Maybe it's semantics, but I thought the floating brush housing was responsible for S7's improved vacuuming because it seals on the floor. I assumed the rubber brush was a necessary evil because they found that pressing bristles against the floor would bend them and destroy the brushes too quickly. If that's not the case, do you know the rationale for the rubber brush or what it's better at? Roborock phone support was stumped by this question, all they could tell me was it's worse with long hairs but performs about the same as the earlier bristle/fin hybrid brushes otherwise. I was thinking about returning my S6 MaxV and grabbing the S7 on Black Friday deal for the same price I paid. Your Z10 review has me reconsidering. I think the S7's scrubby mopping and ability to raise the mop on carpet so it can clean the whole house in one go will outweigh Dreame's advantages for me, close call though

@@donnnnn9196 You should care about self-emptying docks! Once you get used to one, robots without them seem pointless, like half of a good idea. To answer your question, the rubber brush is all about carpet cleaning. That's also why hybrid brushes have bristles and rubber fins/blades. Only the bristles make contact with hard floors, but because carpet fibers stand tall, they flatten the bristles and make contact with the carpet fibers, agitating them, allowing for deep cleaning. Brush bristles don't really agitate carpet very much.

Do you have pets? If so, don't even consider the Ecovacs. As for a mop, if you were going to get the vibrating mop that's sort of okay, it's not as good as a dedicated mopping robot but better than the sort of passive mop that gets dragged the robot, but honestly, it's not so much better that I would let it change the robot I bought just to accommodate it.

Any thoughts on the Dreamtach W10?

You mean Dreametech? If so, they may or may not send me one, but from other reviewers it looks like a great product.

@@MrRoombato - It looks like the W10 is awesome for mopping, but doesn't have self emptying debris bin... but has a very robust mop cleaning system. I've never owned a robo-vac before, this will be our first. We have mostly hardwood floors with a couple of carpeted rooms (low pile). One cat. Thoughts?? Would love to purchase during the black friday event.

@@LeslieWaters301 If you’re dead set on one device I’d go with the W10. Even if you want to start with one device that’s probably your best bet. Ideally, you want a W10 or Narwal T10 and a dedicated vacuum like the Z10 Pro.

@@LeslieWaters301 It has the same combs and the same brush. But I can only tell you how resistant it is to mostly dog hair and some human hair. Not, for example, how it would do in a home with many long haired humans.

Mine T8's laser based detection system is way better than this. It can see the smallest earbuds and avoid it. However it couldn't able to see tweezers. I think it's because of the chrome metal is shining through the lasers and it mixes robot's mind.

I've been considering this as my next robot vacuum but the fact that it doesn't have a replaceable battery makes me a bit nervous. I just had to replace my eufy's 30C battery after almost 2 years and it was so easy and cheap. What are your thoughts on this? Thank you!

I haven't seen any of these robots with replaceable batteries, but all of them can be taken apart to replace it.

@@MrRoombato yeah, as long as we can find batteries to buy that shouldn't be a problem, but I couldn't find anything for this specific robot/brand. Thank you for your reply!

Just do a preclean, wow, some expect these robots to do a perfect job and I never have oatmeal and or petwaste or othe small crap, cone on people quit being pigs, this robots is awesome and if one is that lazy to leave pet waste laying around then one deserves the mess!!

@MrRoombato 2 жыл бұрын

The issue isn't laziness (I mean, not with most people, you never know with some lol) it's that you may not even know your dog shat on the floor. It's not like it's going to walk up to you and say, "Hey Dave, I just shat on your living room floor. Sorry about that, my bad. But your fat lazy ass hasn't walked me in six hours, so f*ck you, Dave!!"

Great robot, but now it ends the cleaning cycle just before finishing, goes back to the dock to charge, does another half minute or so, goes back to the dock to charge, does another half minute. This should be easy to fix with a firmware upgrade.
