I love the detailed review catered to SG audience. Thumbs up to eng CC, watched this on the train without earpiece.

[@an_evil_Imp]

Really good video homie. You provide a really well thought out and balanced analysis for each product to suit different households. Thank you once again

[@AlexTeo]

Glad it was helpful!

[@deanlee3451]

Not looking to buy a robot vacuum but enjoyed watching your video and how thorough it is in helping buyers make the most informed decision!

[@AlexTeo]

How i wish everyone is like u 😂

[@justglenc]

Thanks for the video, looking to change, currently using S7 for 3yrs+ which is driving me nuts with the bumper error, obstacle detection and water streaks. Noticed that the mopping makes my white grooves dirtier over time. Dreame looks good, shall consider.

[@BlairAir]

Dreame is on a ROLL currently. The circular pads are the new hot tech, dropping them off the vacuum beats raising them higher too!

[@user-ee4kc5oq4l]

Your reviews are so clear and unbiased! I’m loving it ❤

[@AlexTeo]

happy to hear that!

[@AlejoMetal]

Thanks you. It was so helpfull. In the end I decided to go with dreame L20U. It was out of my budget, but it was so worth it. I couldn't be happier. Cheers

Will be great to see a comparison video of the L10 and L20!

Great review! Super detail and explains comprehensively!

[@AlexTeo]

thanks mate!

[@JoseAnjel77]

I've been using RobotPox for a few months now, and it's truly changed the way I clean my home. The convenience it offers is unmatched - I can schedule it to clean while I'm at work, and I come back to a spotless floor every time. Not to mention, its powerful suction ensures that even pet hair and debris are picked up efficiently. It's like having a diligent little helper that never complains and always gets the job done!

[@WayneLLC]

Concise yet very thorough and knowledge friendly for layman-consumer understanding. Thank you so much again, Alex.

Excellent review! Thank you. Ive been considering L10S Ultra but i will aim for a L20 now :) Didnt know there is a newer model than L10

[@AlexTeo]

Yeah forget about L10s

[@Agnus78]

@@AlexTeo Unfortunately L20 won't have its main adventage (clean water tank refilling and dirt water disposal) available in Polish disrubution of these robots. Dreame Poland just confirmed it. This is weird strategy that the same model has its features cut down on various markets.

[@AlexTeo]

@@Agnus78 yeah that is very unfortunate, it is probably some implications that we are not familiar with since it needs to hook up to your water piping. I am so glad that this is officially supported in Singapore

[@clementlim118]

Dreame L10s ultra users, anyone experience this issue of when the robot returns to dock, it drops a small pile of dust in front of the dock? was wondering if its a common issue or my piece is defective. Also curious to know if L20 has the same issue or was it solved.

[@keenheat3335]

the swivel motion when mopping near a wall is an older program setting from L10s when it didnt have extend mop. You can turn off the swing motion by go to setting -> wider coverage of Edges and Corners -> toggle off. Then it will stop swinging its body when near the wall.

[@AlexTeo]

sorry but what you described is not available in the setting. The setting for mop extend is under setting -> Intelligent mopping setting -> AI-driven MopExtend

[@llamee]

@alex, we live in a flat (above someone). Which would you recommend for the least noise/vibration so we don't bother our neighbors?

[@xiaohao22]

Hi Alex, great content! I've decided to purchase Dreame L20 after watching your video. Do you know the minimum height to allow the opening of the cover for under table or sink installation? Planning to put the base station under my desk.

[@AlexTeo]

wow nice haa... i will say around 90cm

[@TangShuYang]

Thanks for the detailed review!! btw, i noticed your dark wood like flooring, is that vinyl? From which company?

[@zoeaslam7111]

Not buying robot vacuum any time soon yet ur videos r therapeutic 😅😅❤

[@bryantchan9391]

This is by far the best innovation in the robot vacuum sector. Dreame is definitely overtaking roborock

[@AlexTeo]

yeah seems like its moving that direction

[@samsun01]

There are people who bought the dreame L20 and then watched your video. I'm one of them, and I'll say I'm glad to hear dreame is your robot of choice.

[@aravearave]

one thing to watch out for if you are not keen on privacy security , L20 is the only with live camera.

[@wiekiatong4018]

With live camera hacker are able to hack in that for sure if they really want to do it. It is depend on the manufacture what security configuration in the firmware.

[@edyy7169]

Live video won’t affect me. My robot running when nobody at home.

[@LeoYuanX]

Hello Sir, I have a Ecovacs Deebot T20, and am trying to use it on multiple floors. Do I have to take the charging base to different floors to use it? It's quite heavy. If I only take the robot to a different floor without the charging station, after cleaning, the robot will keep trying to find the charging station. After a long time looking, it will stop and say it can't find the charging station.

[@christian1603]

Thanks for this video ! Do I understand correctly that the washing area with the L20 is now completely cleanable by removing it (like the Q Revo), which was not possible with the L10s?

[@AlexTeo]

L20 is completely removeable, sorry i can't recall for the L10s

[@mohamedahmed1023]

Which is the best for edge vacuuming (not edge mopping)? I'm curious! Thanks!

[@toematoe]

Can't wait for Ecovac X2pro to come out in sg. I think it's the new game changer vs "round" vac robot

[@AlexTeo]

Irobot and dreame w10 are already D shaped, its slightly better than round but the extendable mop is a bigger difference

[@ordln4ry]

Thanks for the in-depth review appreciate it and your effort. Do you know how long is the power cable for revo ?

[@AlexTeo]

Standard power cord length of about 1.5m

[@RetroGamerTy]

We're leaving Deebot for a Roborock Q Revo. The mapping is ABYSMAL with Deebot and it seems Roborock has much better detections and mapping. Looking forward to ours arriving later this week. Dreame looks interesting but it's a bit out of our price range we want to spend and I'm not confident enough with my plumbing skills to attempt hooking it up to a water supply.

[@AlexTeo]

yup, no point paying that extra premium then if you are not getting the water hookup kit

[@arjuns6509]

I hear too many complaints literally no support from Dreame. Roborock is making robot vaccums for ages . Many Satisfied customers

[@Joy3LastNames]

Heck I’m over hear considering the L30 bc of the mop pads extend to get my wall edges clean. If I have to spend $$$ then it better make me coffee too. 😆 Seriously though Dream has 2.0 rating on BBB. And Roborock slams the ads too much pushing their products. I like the S8+ ultra whatever but what happens when they phase these out?

[@HarjasSinghQS]

I've not seen or heard anything about limited support, could you please elaborate? Currently deciding between the Q Revo and the Dreame@@arjuns6509

[@andrewtang4]

i think in your next video of robot vacuum comparison, you can compare various premium models i.e roborock S8 pro ultra and also simulating a dog poop (wet the finished brown toilet roll holder) will be great! sometimes the robot vacuum company promotes how much can it detect a pet's mess but the robot vacuum still runs over it...

[@AlexTeo]

From my experience it depends on your dog size and whether their poop looks like a poop haa, big dog still ok but small dogs better dont take the chance. Next time if i pass by toy shop will keep a lookout haa

[@xtctaz]

Great review. Would be keen to see ur review of the 2024 Roborock and dreame models that should come out in April / may 2024

[@vahnseymour150]

Is the hook up kit pipe long enough? Because I am planning to put the dock further from washing machine due to HDB piping box-up...

[@AlexTeo]

Yeah its super long, i have lots of unused piping

[@vahnseymour150]

@@AlexTeo thank you

[@sylh8173]

Going off the robot vacuum topic here, am wondering if Alex or any viewers have a recommendation for air purifier. I keep seeing ads for Sterra Moon but haven’t really dived into my research. Hoping to hear some recommendations/ feedback to help narrow down my search. My basic research tells me we actually just need one with a HEPA filter & activated charcoal, all the other bells & whistles are totally unnecessary (unproven) & may even ironically pollute our earth. But any first hand experience with how much area a specific brand/ model can cover, difference you can physically feel, easy of cleaning, noise level & energy consumption will be great!

What a great comparison review! One question, you had Smart Home integration as a listed con for the Dreame L20 Ultra but I didn't fully catch that part. Are there any limitations one should be aware of when using personal assistants such as Google Assistant? I personally find it very convenient being able to control the robot via voice commands. Where I can both start/stop a cleaning run but also have it go and clean individual rooms as well as send it back to its dock. So if this functionality via Google Assistant is not available for the Dreame L20 Ultra, it will be much less interesting to me. I currently have the Roborock Q Revo but I'm thinking of replacing it with the Dreame L20 Ultra since I miss having a camera but also for the extending mop feature. I also think the base station looks less "cheap" compared to the Q Revo base station which doesn't come with a lid to cover the water tanks. Finally, it seems very convenient looking at the L20 Ultra to have the cleaning solution directly in the docking station where it will use as much as it needs automatically. In the Q Revo, I have so far only used clean tap water. I know Roborock has their own recommended cleaning solution but I heard of many people having the water in the fresh water tank turn "slimy" after using it. Sorry, this became a wall of text 🙂

[@AlexTeo]

not really a comparison review but rather my top 3 robot vacuums to buy now. Google home integration is always fine for all these brands, limitations come for other platforms

[@87togabito]

The water turns slimy because of algae build up. You can put in stuff to prevent growth of those stuff. I have one in my tank and the water tank has remained clean after 2 months of daily use.

[@AA-uy2br]

Hi Alex! I bought an Ecovacs x1 after seeing your review 😂 I'm wondering if you encountered any problems with the emptying of water from the cleaning sink with any of your robots? In my case, the suction from the cleaning sink to the dirty water tank is a regular issue despite maintenance. I will probably get a new robot to replace this next year but do not wish to be faced with the same issue. Any insights? Pls share as always! Thanks!

[@AlexTeo]

Most likely is because your dirty water tank is not placed properly, usually the case when its empty, just exert a bit of force to make sure its properly sit in

[@bobbyboyderecords]

I am having the same problem, that just started this week. T10 Omni (china version), I have a 6 year warranty/guarantee so will call them if I can't fix it through the standard ways.

[@cyriltee]

Hi Alex, was wondering what handheld vacuum or steam mop or wet&dry vacuum will you pair with the Dreame L20 to achieve what the L20 could not ?

[@AlexTeo]

For me my setup consists of a robot vacuum, steam mop, stick vacuum and a spot cleaner

[@doreenlow1782]

Hi Alex I have been enjoying your videos v much. Thank you for your info. Question. Ecovacs t20 model you mentioned here, hot mopping meaning hot water washing the mops or hot water mopping the floor all the way? Kindly advise. Thank you 😊

[@AlexTeo]

hot water washing, there is no internal tank on the T20

[@MingZai]

Will u be doing a more detailed review of the L20. Esp on the auto water kit and any pre-requisites for its installation? e.g. service yard location etc..

[@AlexTeo]

Unlikely, just need a water source, a water drain and power outlet

[@AzaleamarisolVazquez]

*RobotPox has a strong hype recently but it's worth in my opinion*

[@LvvLvvLvvw]

Hi Alex, may I know what is the requirement for the water outlet connection? What type of fitting and size requires?

[@AlexTeo]

i will say there is no specific requirement because you can always get a suitable adapter separately, maybe just water pressure being between 0.14MPa and 1MPa which i think 90% of the people won't have issue

[@leonas6986]

Hey can I ask if the soap dispensing function for Dreame L20 still works without the water hook up kit?

[@AlexTeo]

yup it does

[@squasherpunk]

Hey Alex, great video as always. Do you know if the Ecovacs can be used with floor cleaning detergent? Thanks!

[@AlexTeo]

Yup, you just need to know what detergent are suitable that dont damage the internals

[@87togabito]

Just note that the Q revo eats up cleaning fluid without any restraint. I’m literally topping up the fluid tank every 4-5 days. Add in the coat of the cleaning fluid, it’s not cheap. Using the Tineco one and buying it in bulk to keep the cost manageable. But none the less, it is nice having a squeaky clean feeling floor everyday.

[@dank9288639]

I just use pinesol in it lol

[@MrJeezycheezy]

Thank you for this detailed comparison! Do you have any idea where can i get the white Dreame L20? Because most of the platform i saw is selling only the black version😅

[@AlexTeo]

Haha no idea, i wanted black all the way, can just DM the seller?

[@xXchidoriPOWERXx]

Can I ask about uneven surfaces? Can all robots handle a 30mm drop between areas?

[@eiboonk]

I'm using Dreame L10s ultra. It seems the vacuum first then mop option is no longer available. So now I have to set two scheduled tasks one for vacuum and one for mopping..

[@AlexTeo]

You csn set it at shortcuts

[@DanielAcostaAZ]

You can do custom cleaning cycles by setting up routines with Q Revo.

[@ethicamahbub5350]

How long does a dreame L20 need to clean a big room 12ft by 18ft in standard cleaning mode?

[@sereneyeo2526]

Hello! Just want to check if you build a ramp at the service yard area for the dreame to go up?

[@AlexTeo]

There is a ramp but its there by default!

[@Anonymity2288]

Hi Alex, noted that you also keep a fluffy dog at home. I am wondering among these robot vacuums you have tested in your reviews. Which robot vacuum stands out to detect dog poop as the last thing we would want from a robot vacuum is the pet waste being splattered all over during the sweeping and mopping of the floor.

[@AlexTeo]

You will want premium robot vacuums with camera, in this video only the dreame L20 has it, roborock S8 and ecovacs X2 as well. But i will say dont take the chance, if your dog poop is big and nicely shaped still fine, but what if the poop is watery due to bad stomach. Another way is if your dog is potty train, you can set no-go zone for that area, just dont fully rely on AI because its not 100% foolproof

[@kouichi4]

Can any of these dust bags be reused? Does the base station still work without putting the dust bag?

[@AlexTeo]

sorry i never tested whether it will work without a dust bag

[@fashizzlemanizzle4808]

Also, I love this video. And the presenter was definitely easy on the eyes while watching…. 😅😊

[@AlexTeo]

thanks for the kind words!

[@waterbubbler44]

Good review. However. Dreame L10s ultra special edition also have water kit for continuous water supply right? Much cheaper than L20 also

[@AlexTeo]

Yeah the L10s that i reviewed at launch doesnt, but i will still go for the L20 with its new features

[@KenTan2626]

Previously tried Dreame L10s ultra but mopping not up to my standard and sold away after buy Airbot L107s at $600 (half price of L10s ultra) 😂 with hot mop which do slightly better mop but can't do cycle cleaning. Not sure why Airbot have taken the product down 😢

[@AlexTeo]

robot vacuum is those type of product which either i get a good one or i totally don't use one at all haa

[@jacedoubleyou]

Hi Alex, for the L20 Ultra is the installation with the water hookup kit simple enough to be done by ourselves or would it be better to go through their installers?

[@AlexTeo]

this is subjective, download the instruction manual then you decide for yourself

[@MegaRichWay]

thansk for this!

[@xavierzeng651]

Hi Alex. Thanks for the detailed analysis! Question on the Dreame L20. Ur summary states that Dreame L20 can be found on Mi Home App. But I can’t find it on the list. Also I’m using the region Mainland China. Is this an area of concern if I want to get this robot vacuum? Thanks

[@AlexTeo]

yup seems like the L20 is not in the list, so integrating to home assistant should be impossible at this point

[@fx4tz]

Hi Alex, this is so informative, thank you for this! Btw, for the Dreame L20 with hookup kit, do you think 1.5m of clearance is really needed in front of the docking station as mentioned in the Dreame website ? I’m planning to put at my 4rm BTO laundry area but the amount of clearance I can afford infront of the docking station is only 90cm

[@AlexTeo]

i put mine at the laundry area too, should be fine

[@fx4tz]

Thanks so much!

[@benozw12]

Philips just launched their 2-in-1 mop vacuum robot. Hope you could do a review on that soon!

[@tedbellWRV]

Looking at your "cons" for the Robotic Revo Q, I wonder if you found the place in the App that the clean settings can be customized for each room. That is, set for each room: vacuum only, mop only, or both vacuum and mop. (The cleaning customization settings are not easy to find in the app.)

[@AlexTeo]

i explained about this and show the screens at 10:47, so is there a way to set number of cleaning cycles for each room?

[@tedbellWRV]

@@AlexTeo Yes, but the Roborock App does a poor job of showing you how to customize. First, "Enter" your device. Below the map, select "rooms"; then select the "S" shaped icon in the lower right. Now select "Customize"; select "Edit"; and select a room. From the menu, select the cleaning modes and cleaning action you desire, select the check mark to save; the map will now show a symbol in each room for the custom mop/vacuum action you have pre-programmed. Now, when you go about cleaning, I believe the mop/vacuum action will be per this customization.

[@here2strikeable]

Are any of them able to go up a slight slope or a kerb?

[@AlexTeo]

Very very slight

[@vanha5311]

What do you think about the Roborock s8 pro and the dreame L20? I want to buy one of them but don’t knows which one to get. Thank you.

[@AlexTeo]

Literally forget about all robot vacuums in the world except these unless they are not available in your country

[@Mus1cP1ay3r]

Hi Alex, love your videos! But for those on a budget, are there any models that you would recommend? For example, I saw TP-Link has some budget robo vaccums and wonder what your thoughts are on those. Appreciate your videos though! Very informative :)

[@AlexTeo]

Thanks for the support! Sorry but i didnt test out budget robots for a long time already, after having bad experience of one leaving many scratches on my floor.. maybe next year i will go test them out!

[@0hmannn]

Hey Alex, if im not planning to buy the hook up kit would you still recommend the dreame over the others? (Ignoring price)

[@AlexTeo]

if you are ignoring price then yes I will recommend, L20 is the best in 2023

[@nicolelin6117]

Hi Alex, I can't stretch my budget to get the Dreame L20 Ultra so I was wondering if last year's L10S Ultra (the one you reviewed last year) is better than the Q Revo and T20 that you mentioned here?

[@AlexTeo]

These are my current top 3, the L10s probably sits at 5th, unless you want the cheapest that can hook up a waterkit

[@TheChiang80]

Heard online that the dust bag is damp after few rounds of vaccum + mop. Is that true? Did u use the vaccum + mop mode or vaccum then mop? TIA

[@AlexTeo]

no issue with any of these 3 robots

[@spvn]

How would you compare the L20 vs L10s ultra? Worth upgrading after the price drops a bit? (apart from the water kit)

[@AlexTeo]

yes the edge cleaning is really niceeee, and able to dock the pads if you got high pile carpets

[@amandalee280]

i am considering buy a robot vaccum (never used one before!). Just wonder if you can elaborate a bit on the mapping instability and the internal water tank issue with the Ecovacs T20? What are the advantages of having an internal water tank? I like the Roborock but unfortunately it's not available where i am and I don't think i can use the Dreame L20 due to its requirements of connecting to water supplies. thanks so much!

[@AlexTeo]

Mapping issues are things like losing map in the app, bot unable to recognise map, map not accurate in some areas. Having an internal water tanks means that you have a better spread of clean water flowing in before it returns back to the station to clean the mop pads. The dreame L20 water kit is optional thought but depends whethet you have the budget for premium models

[@amandalee280]

Thanks Alex!

[@Russ2284]

For the L20 did you purchase with installation service? Or it is easy to install ownself?

[@AlexTeo]

Yes i did get the installation service because i am doom if i screw up everything and flood the kitchen. But the next one i will be able to diy

[@gohbingyi6138]

Hi if you dont mind can i ask is xiaomi x10+ good enough or getting the q revo is alot better?

[@AlexTeo]

not a whole lot, depends on what price you can get them for, more than 400-500 is probably not worth

[@brownpooky]

Thanks for the detailed review. I really like the Dreame L20. Seems like white is not available in Singapore? Can’t find it anywhere.

[@zioluv]

Hi Alex, I'm contemplating a slightly cheaper one. what do you think of roborock Q revo vs Dreame L10 ultra? Which would you recommend

[@AlexTeo]

These are the 3 robots i recommend today, so Q revo

[@jayschmidt600]

Its a hard one. You are comparing a flagship (L20) against the T20 and Revo 2nd tier robots, where the T20 and Revo are priced the same, and the L20 around $700 more. Would have been more "fair" to compare the L10, T20 and Revo and the L20, X2 Omni and S8 as these are each manufacturers flagship. You would expect a $2500AUD unit to beat a $1800AUD unit.. The flagship model X2 has a built in water tank, lifts higher on carpet and is square (to get closer to edges), higher suction, and without a top lidar it has a shorter height to get under things (like couches/beds). I feel like you have reviewed a Corvette, Mustang and a Lamborghini.. 😏 Great review and testing though! 👌

[@AlexTeo]

the tests are just to let you see the results for each of them, not comparing but rather recommending these 3. No idea how else I can name the title of the video. X2 and S8 are not there because I don't find them worth the money

[@gundamfloss]

Roborock has a good and efficient service center in singapore. Not sure about the other 2. This was useful for us when the roborock gave issues after 2 years. So this would be another consideration.

[@AlexTeo]

Unrelated to the video but can you talk about Matter devices and ecosystem with regards to the Singapore market?

[@cedricleong5561]

Nice video Alex! May I ask if L20 can work without having water inlet/outlet and fill up the water manually?

[@AlexTeo]

Yes of course you have that option

[@Jodaadampurba]

[@FilipeRaposoo]

Awsome review! Regarding the L20s, does the dirty water drainer have a pump? Because my drain is above ground around 30cm, you think it will work or only uses the force of gravity?

[@AlexTeo]

it supports wall drain of less than or equal 38cm, the manual states that this will require a part that needs to be purchased separately though

If i do the auto cleaning water kit, how often do i need to remove the dirty water filter? once a month? i am trying to put this under my kitchen sink, and wonder whether he can work with just 80cm and ocassionally pull the base out for detergent refill and dirty water filter change.

Th DreameBot L10 Ultra is stilla good choice. But a question: in the L20 Ultra you stated -Install and forget- but you still have to clean it once a month? And how about the base? How dirty will it be? Or has it a method to clean autonomingly?

[@AlexTeo]

the necessary maintenance work can be performed just once per month, ie. clean sensors, clean base, clean filter, remove entangled hair, change dust bag

Hi I'm looking to get the T20. Can I check if you are able to add my own floor detergent to the T20 base station?

[@AlexTeo]

of course you can but you need to know what's ok what's not

[@1001804]

Thanks for the video! Can you compare Ecovacs x2 to Dreame L20? I'd like to know which one does better edge cleanings

[@AlexTeo]

i tested D-shaped robots before, pretty sure it will be L20

T20 omni unfortunately doesn’t mop using hot water you’ll find by the time it reaches its point of cleaning or within a minute of leaving the dock it’s cold especially in the summer months when AC is on, I currently have a roborock S8 pro ultra hooked up to my own DIY water kit, it’s pretty simple, I offer this to friends for a small fee and include a limscale remover so the water is as pure as a bottle of Fiji after going through a filtration system it’s, it’s my go to V&M robot vacuum cleaner and the best part about my modifications is it doesn’t void the warranty I’m currently in discussions with RoborockEU about the design which may be purchased from me which i assume is for a future release, the L20 is a decent almost unreal dream however I think there’s going to be some issues with some shaggy rugs they encounter, had they put the classic cloth mop on I would of possibly purchased it but I also have marble and I’ve had nothing but issues with those types of of mops leaving streaks and some I’ve had to get an older machine out to fix or use a steam cleaner, I really hope I’m wrong but people running out taking advantage of the special offer of $450 off only to realise it’s a flawed machine that’s being hyped to be the best of the best, I really look forward to see how you find it in 12 months and how many firmware updates they produce over that time period my guess is 20-30 and it’s still having issues

[@AlexTeo]

if environment or floor material is cold then of course the water will not be hot unless you are constantly heating the water. So how will you attempt to do hot water mopping using the traditional manner, you will first heat up the water and pour inside a pail right, then take a mop and rinse it using that hot water. How long will the mop remains hot? its the same idea. I rather it has firmware updates, at least I know the manufacturer is constantly working and improving it rather than a company that doesn't provide updates at all

Hey alex. Can you advice if those dreame x30 or x40 models directly bought from TB will they work? Coz i read some models are for mainland and they geolock the app/firmware, esp for the x20pro

[@AlexTeo]

any appliance that's more than 500 i won't risk buying from TB already especially for a robovac with so many moving parts... unless the product can only be found in china and i really really want it even if today the firmware did not block overseas IP from accessing, nobody can guarantee that won't ever happen, or they will request a china registered mobile number or ID

[@robinfan9992]

@@AlexTeo Thank you for your very valued advice. Its true, they can brick it anytime with a firmware.
