Dreame X40 Ultra Robot Self-Emptying Vacuum & Mop REVIEW I Love It!

[@Mark-bj5rr]

We cant express our thanks enough my friend. Fantastic to find 100% honest reviews. My family appreciates all your effort.

[@ghettofabulus80]

I loves that you have long and short video reviews. I decided to buy a Dreame x40 because of this video.

[@alexleon8406]

Love your long detailed videos. Your reviews of the Dreame X40 is the reason why I decided to purchase one from Dreame since it was on sale for around 1600k

[@JustADad]

Good choice!

[@paulalbuquerque6297]

Been using it already for a week and it’s by far the best robot vacuum on the market

[@kayteebeelle]

Thank you for the video- it was really helpful. So many of the others were just really specs with just a few short video shots of it actually working. Yours has given me the info I really wanted to see with the mud and coffee etc., and it actually performing a thorough real world clean. Planning on watching more of your vids now as I try to figure out this vacuum thing!

[@JustADad]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@leobolander3124]

Its so cool how it can go back and mop again if it sees heavy stains left! Very informative video!

[@JustADad]

Yes! Thank you!

[@tribble1027]

Thanks for everything you do...informative and entertaining!

[@ilsebloem763]

I thought the Dreame L20 was amazing and my dream, but oh wow! I have three dogs following me around like shadows, all around home, so yep... it's a Dreame X40😊

[@jeffschwab1820]

This is a great video, very helpful. Good demonstration of the app too

[@JohnCho_RE]

Thank you for making this video. Origianlly I was set to buy the IRoBot Combo 10 but after watching your video I decided to buy this x40. You are truly providing value to people's lives. May you make a ton of money on adsense and have sponsors!

[@JustADad]

Glad I could help!

[@LaszloBagi]

I have the Dream L10. While is does a great job over the last two months the mop pads (fabric part) have been coming off the plastic spinners. I believe the velcro on the plastic is breaking down and not gripping the fabric enough

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

Long videos are fine if they're done right. And you do them right. 👍

[@alexleon8406]

Awesome review!! I ordered mines and can't wait!

[@SWFLSlimJim]

All things considered, especially price point I’m glad I got the x10 pro Omni still. This is impressive for sure, but I’ll wait a year or two for the next generation. Thanks for the review!

[@danidiamond]

The x10 is great, I have it. However I think this x40 and the roborock s8 maxv are the absolute top generation we have waited all these years for. I can't imagine how they would improve either one.

[@Jeff-rz6kr]

and when the "next generation comes out" then you will be saying the same thing. There is no such thing as future proof. There is always a better version just around the corner.

[@Jeff-rz6kr]

@@danidiamond Really? You can't imagine it? No matter how great these are in a few years they will be obsolete. That's just fact.

[@SWFLSlimJim]

@@Jeff-rz6kr the X-10 that I purchased is less than a month old still, why would I go and spend $1900 on another robot now? I’m future proof until the next generation, perhaps the features and value will then be such that it’ll be worth the price. I consider it sound stewardship of my currency. Not sure why you seem to have an issue with that.

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

The brush in the instructions on the app is for periodic cleaning of the mop cleaning area in the base. Just rinsing the dirty tank with hot water seems to be sufficient for me. As for the spinning brush on carpet, or lack thereof, I've been letting Dreame know about this, and so have a lot of others from what I can see online. But the good news is that someone mentioned that they noticed in the French and German forums that Dreame is aware of this and will fix this in a firmware update.

[@miguelgomes7615]

Thank you for your informative videos. At the moment, in my opinion Dreame X40 Ultra it is the best robot on the market. Compliments

[@ClydeSmith-km6iv]

Fed-Ex is scheduled to deliver my new X40 tomorrow. (May 20th). I decided that since there were not many videos when I purchased this for the discounted price of $1,519.99. BUT if it doesn't perform I'll send it back on the 30 day return policy. I see you just posted this video yesterday and I appreciate your excellent review. I'm anxious to see how you stack this up against the roborock S8 which was my other consideration. The tie breaker for me was leaving the mop pads! I'm interested in how the Roborock does on the coffee grounds that look like dirt.!

[@danidiamond]

And the fact you can plumb the x40 with a kit but you can't do that with the s8...

[@aspj5132]

Just an FYI, got it today cleaned 2 rooms and on the 3rd room the side brush no longer extends out…yes I have that feature turned on! Update: works just fine just have to change a setting in the app if you want it used more frequently….

[@JustADad]

Oh wow. Sorry to hear this. Let me know how it goes with customer service

[@aspj5132]

@@JustADad After messing with the settings in the app, I changed the setting from AI to basically every cleaning and it works just fine, so we will call this a user error!! 🤦‍♂️

[@deuceswild6857]

Cool robot. Great review!

[@sirbubber]

Would it be possible to show how it performs getting through door ‘ramps’?

[@alexleon8406]

I'm having an issue with my x40 where it struggles to get onto the dock ramp because the edge of the ramp flares up so it can't go over it. It seems to only occur when the mop pads are not installed.

[@syafiqaddin2667]

was hoping youd release this by next month. damn didnt expect today would be the day. thanks! really considering either this x40 or the roborock s8 maxv ultra

[@JustADad]

coming soon!!!

[@jpn3971]

Sorry, but detergent doesn't mix with water to clean floors. It is only used to clean mops. I got this info directly from Dreame!

[@Crusader1984]

Yeah, but what’s a cheaper way for a solution because buying it through them is expensive

[@elkapitan75]

What about putting a little non soapy detergent inside the clean water tank? (Of course they don't recommend it) Update: Actually I found on their online brochure (not this particular model) that they do mix it with tank inside robovac itself.

[@jaggirl]

​@elkapitan75 I always put a little cleaning solution in the water. I've done it for years and never had a problem.

[@JesperH1967]

Hi - a great review. Thanks :-) I am however not sure I understand, why you cleaned the coffee grounds, next to the base your self, instead of giving the Dreame a chance doing the job itself?

[@lionintu]

@1:40 whats an alternative cleaning solution

[@bob84409]

Thank for the video! A little piece of feedback. When you are doing an in depth review, things like "I can't go over this right now" don't really make sense. If you are taking the effort to cover stuff, do cover stuff, don't skip.

[@JustADad]

Thanks for the tips!

[@Klaas_H]

Its great that you noticed that the X40 does not clean edges on carpet. The side brush will not come out or even spin at those edges It is useless if your house is fully carpeted. This one was designed for the Chinese market where most homes have hardwood floors.

[@jamieboyd5208]

Love your channel!!!!

[@JustADad]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

If I may make a suggestion for your videos. Could you use screen sharing so we can see your screen on our screens rather than seeing it through the camera? Love your videos, but it would make it easier for us to read the screen and see the features on the app better.

[@JustADad]

Great idea

[@RyanKipnis]

Now that you've reviewed the X40 Ultra and S8 MaxV Ultra, which would you prefer if they were the same price or price not a factor?

[@JustADad]

Video coming soon. Each has pluses and minuses. Probably d8

[@JustADad]

S8

[@RyanKipnis]

I'm looking forward to the video comparing them both 😁🙏🏼

[@jaylo3356]

It looks impressive. I just bought a Roborock S8 Pro Ultra during the Mothers Day sale and received it 3 days ago. I got it for $900 with the discount and my additional 10% off government discount, plus tax. With additional accessories (cleaning solution, dirt bags, and mop pads) I paid $1064.89. Would you say the X40 would be worth the additional cost to upgrade to ? I’m still within the 30 return window. It would be about an extra $450. My lower level is 2500 sq ft with all wood look tile. My upper level bonus room is 350 sq ft of carpet with a full bathroom that has tile. No pets. 6 year old and 13 year old plus 2 adults. Thanks for your input and for your reviews ! @justadad

[@Solo-vr5sh]

Good evening.Please tell me which is better to take L40 or X40? They are now at the same price on Black Friday 1,500 Canadian dollars

[@notloosh]

I heard the solution tank is only used for cleaning the mop, not for mopping the floors. Is this true? You say that it gets put into the robot's task and is used for mopping

[@BlazingNina]

Yes it goes into the tank

[@msamarskij980]

All European bloggers in video reviews say that the liquid is supplied only for washing napkins.

[@BlazingNina]

@@msamarskij980 I’ve reached out directly to Dreame about this and they said and I quote “ Dear customer, the cleaning solution will add to robot's water tank which means it can also be used for floor mopping”

[@danidiamond]

I would test with strong smelling floor cleaner to see if it's true. If it doesn't is just add solution to clean water tank.

[@BlazingNina]

@@danidiamond that would void your warranty with Dreame.

[@Boombastick17]

I agree with you (and did the same). There's no question the X40 has more features. But is it actually 'better'? And what 'better' actually means for each and every household varies quite a bit. In fact, I actually *prefer* my X9 over my X10 (despite all the criticism with regards to the absence.of auto-empty function) on my main floor, as I use the mop function at least twice a day. Emptying water bins less often becomes way more important emptying the dust bin once every 2 weeks. However the opposite applies in other areas of the house. To get back to the X40, it is over twice the price of the X10, so my questions would be: 1. Does the X40 perform twice as good as the X10 with regards to the functionalities that they share? 2. Do the additional functionalities increase my satisfaction to a level that would justify paying twice the price? 3. Are there ways to mitigate the X10's short comings to end up with a similar result? The answer depends on the rooms, the floors, the material to pick up, the preferred (or necessary) type of cleaning, etc. I have two S1s on order though... I'm very curious to see how they will compare. @justadad: awesome review as usual. Thank you sir :)!

[@danidiamond]

I have the x10. Here is why I want the x40 for over double the cost. It cleans the edges, it has seperate solution tank, I will plumb it with the kit and never fill out empty water tanks,it has the video capabilities and it uses got water to wash mop pads.

[@RoadsAndTraffic]

I it is $1000 now, and I am still thinking if I go with dreame or shark. I prefer one without dust bag. What is your suggestion?

[@drivescorvette]

Thanks for this video, very informative. I read a review that the x40 reads the room initially then does not continuously watch for obstacles so if you move something after it starts, it will not clean that spot. This same review said obstacle avoidance could be better. Your opinion please.

[@BlazingNina]

They all kind of do that with the lidar, I know Roborock does for sure

[@drivescorvette]

@@BlazingNina My ecovac x1 omni must continuously watch because I'm constantly moving something after it moves around it and it will recognize on another pass that it is not there and clean. If you have an x40 try standing in front of it then as soon as it moves around you, move out of the way and see if it ever cleans where you were standing.

[@danielstechclocksandmore]

Can you do a review on the Ecovacs Deebot T 30 S AI

[@krispie2441]

Hi, my X40 seems to be unable to go in a straight line for more than a few feet without doing some erratic swirl, spinning or going off on a 45 degree angle for no reason. Do you have any clue why this is happening?

[@nsonmandap5809]

Hi, which settings that will mop and vac at the same time? I tried the Genius Vac&mop. But what its doing is just vacuuming first, and its not using its side brush. Then it will mop

[@missmonasuzette]

It said task completed in reference to cleaning the mop pads, I think?

[@lionintu]

Please time stamp next time so I know what you're talking about

[@jamieboyd5208]

I wonder if it sees thode wooden oak marks on your flooring as stains/mud?

[@mikearrigo5674]

Great video, it would be interesting to compare the x30 to the x40.

[@JustADad]

coming soon

[@simplypositiveme]

It cleans the mop pads with hot water you said. Do you know the degrees farenheight?

[@mil3761]

How hot did the hot water washing actually get? Did it stay that temperature throughout the wash? What about the hot air drying? What temp and was it throughout the drying cycle? How long did it take to dry?

[@hudibloch5920]

Did I hear right that you can use any cleaning solution not just the Dreame solution?

[@lionintu]

What are the alternatives

[@tfrain01]

What’s the best robot right now? Christmas present for wife. Curv, slim, or the dreame x40. They are all on sale but we would get the extra 10% gov/teacher discount at roborock. Or possibly pro or master to spend a little less. I want to get her the best one for obstacle avoidance and least amount of maintenance having to mess with it. While our dogs are trained I hear nightmares about the poop smears. We currently have a Wyze vac and it can do our concrete floor to hardwood transition so I assume all these can.

[@semihkayikci]

Thanks for very detailed, great videos. I am considering to buy this robot soon. I have similar kitchen cupboard gap, 4,3 inches as you have where robot seems can fit under it but worried that it will not go under it. You know how height is yours?

[@sarahstephen111]

Have you tested the auto emptying function with pet hair? I have Dreame L10s pro which doesn't do well with pet hair. It actually stays in the vaccum when it self emptying. I was thinking of upgrading if that function was now improved

[@vishkumar]

i just got this ultra x40. How do i set the mopping pad washing frequency to every 5mins or so? The least it allows me is 10 mins. I do not want the mop pads mop for 10 mins without washing. My previous ecovacs t20 omni would let me choose 6mins.

[@LilithTitan]

Do you have a suggest on cheaper alterative solutions? Dreame soap is pretty darn expensive considering how much the bot itself cost. I own the x40, but I'm looking for alterative soaps

[@lionintu]

Did you find any?

[@YouTubedarek]

Great video. Any updates after a few months? Seeing quite a few negative posts (but also know that people are more likely to complain than say things are going great lol). Mines arriving soon and debating returning it before I get it with all the posts I’m seeing.

[@JustADad]

You will love it!

[@jaggirl]

I let the few negative posts stop me from buying it. But I finally gave in. I love it. Plus, there's nothing wrong with giving it a second run-through if you aren't 100% happy with the first run. It's no work for you.

[@guerinheckman6416]

Thanks for the awesome video except for the part when you vacuumed up the coffee grounds. Would have been better if you left them to see what the robot did with them.

[@DizConnected]

It's on sale for Black Friday/Cyber Monday for $999.99

[@modernwize]

I'd assume a scale of -5 to + 5 points. Considering how much weight price has for most people, this would be -5

[@bond85007]

Did you notice the self clean after a few times of going out, the mop pad washing process makes a really bad squeaking noise? I've bought / exchanged now 2x of them and they both started to develop this. @JustADadVideos

13:14 this is worrying. If it thinks coffee grounds is a wet mess that means the mop pads have scratchy coffee grounds on them now… 😮

[@tjhf96]

Are you having issues with it not dispensing detergent? Or does it not use that much?

[@AnilCherian91]

Thanks for the review! Just got mine yesterday. Do you feel like the mopping takes a little longer than it should and is a little inefficient? It’s taking about 40 minutes to complete 2 rooms. Maybe I need to play with the settings a little more. But other than that this thing is awesome!

[@marliesfransen]

#justadad can you measure the temperature when it is washing the mop pads?

[@JustADad]

i tried, very hard and I only get about 100 degree water temp when it worked

[@marliesfransen]

@@JustADad I got a reaction from dreame they say it first drops cold water and then directly hot water on the pads so it’s unable to measure it exactly. I have small hands and put my fingers under the mops and yes it was quite hot, so I’m thinking it’s probably true .

[@haticeaydin4592]

How high can Dreame X40 Ultra lift its mobs?

[@dragonsbreath8653]

Please make tests of the height of the span at which the robot vacuum cleaner can pass. Before buying the Dreame X40 Ultra Complete, I had a Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, and Roborock S8 Pro Ultra calmly did cleaning under furniture, and when the Dreame X40 Ultra Complete appeared, it could not do cleaning under furniture and did cleaning near furniture. I talked to the owners of the Dreame X40 Ultra Complete, and it turned out interesting. For those who have had this robot pass under furniture, the height of the furniture is 11.5-12 cm, and I have a furniture height of 10 cm. I decided to run tests on the height of the span. I took a 10 cm wide board and books. I changed the height from 10 to 12 cm and sent the robot vacuum cleaner to do zone cleaning under the board and watched at what height it could pass. At a span height of 10 cm, I could not pass, at a span height of 10.5 cm I did not pass, and at a span height of 11 cm I passed. Passes both with AI (with the flashlight on/off) and without AI. I experimentally found out its height limit-11 cm. Apparently, the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra has a height limit of 10 cm, so it can clean under furniture with a span height of 10 cm. No one talks about it, and if they hadn't accidentally found out about the height limit, they would have handed the vacuum cleaner back and taken the Roborock QRevo Master. Make tests on the height of the span and show at what height the robot vacuum cleaner will no longer be able to pass. Be sure to tell people about it. No one is talking, and I didn't know it myself.
