I purchased the Dreame X50 ultra robot vacuum cleaner as I was struggling to keep my floors clean with a shedding puppy. I have always had robotic vacuum cleaners but they were sadly outdated and didn’t have the features these have. The new vacuum cleaner has surpassed my expectations. The mopping is exceptional. I have porcelain floors that I… Read more · 1
have always struggled to avoid mop streaking. With this new unit the floors come up streak free and shiny. There are so many settings to choose from. I usually get the vacuum to clean the floors each morning while I’m out walking the dog. If my dog does leave marks on the floor (drooling) during the day I can select the vacuum to clean just that area. I have so much more time on my hands and the floors always look great. Highly recommend.
We had problems right from the moment we took this out of the box. There appears to be an issue with the dock, or the cable as it kept switching off even though the dock had been left on, plugged in and there was no issue with the power outlet. We had to keep restarting it. The robot wouldn’t work without the dock. This appliance was super… Read more
expensive. I contacted support who wasted time and my patience asking me to verify the purchase instead of helping me. As if I would have asked if I was not a purchaser of the product. They then referred me back to the store, which wasted more time as the store couldn’t help at all. It made me very annoyed as we couldn’t work out if the product is faulty or if it was our user error. We followed the instructions on the guide. We have tried an identical cable from another device to see if the error is the cable. This was a high end purchase for us. We expected neither the issues nor the poor response from the support team. I will update on whether or not changing the cable has helped or not.
Update: we tried three sockets, and two cables. The dock kept shutting down after about 15 mins. We returned it to the shop as we are not able to use it like this.
We tried a second machine. We will report and see if this one does better.
Update: the second machine does appear to be working. I will say the issue for us was not the device itself. The vacuum cleaner does a decent job and I am a big fan of the automatic dust bag emptying and the fact that it washes and dries its own mop pads. Just the dock we had problems with. I will report back if this changes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Absolutely Love It! I’ve had the Dreame X50 Ultra Robot Vacuum and Mop for a while now, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with it. It vacuums and mops brilliantly, and my floors have never looked so clean. I love that it automatically… Read more · 1
empties the dustbin, washes and dries the mop pads, and is always ready for the next clean. It has made keeping the house tidy so much easier.
The navigation is excellent, it gets around furniture with ease, and I was amazed at how well it cleans under low furniture thanks to its retractable sensor. The app is also very easy to use, allowing me to schedule cleans and customise rooms exactly how I want. These are among the standout features that reviewers have consistently praised.
For anyone thinking about buying one—especially if you have a busy household or want to spend less time cleaning—I highly recommend it. It’s definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made for my home.
Love my machine! ❤️
Follow-up · No, I’ve never have an issue of it getting stuck anywhere I have a two story home and I vacuum the mop my upstairs first and then I’ll bring it downstairs and it vacuums and mops so it’s pretty good with battery It’s not noisy at all
Hi I’m very impressed with the Dreamie X50 and the Dreamie L40 I’m very pandantic about dust I actually followed mymachines around with my Dyson 15 max gen the one with the lazer light and both machines are very thorough I can’t recommend them higher. Show reply
Follow-up · Set up was very simple around 10 minutes to map the house the machine pics up very fine dust particles as I cleaned the filter after a couple of weeks and was quite surprised as my floor is generally spotless. The X50 is quite remarkable not touching anything chair legs ext.
Very happy with my Dreame x50 ultra, cleanse my English Oak floorboards perfect with no streaks also does a beautiful job on ceramic tiles in the wet areas. I am highly satisfied after my daughter encouraging me to buy one. Show 3 replies
Follow-up · Cleans the edges well, I move any obstacles in it's way most of the time so it gets in close. Very easy to clean I make sure I do it everything it finishes it's cycle. There's a slight buzzing noise but not loud like a vacuum, I don't mind it at least I know it is working. Overall do yourself a favour and spoil yourself go buy one.
Positive reviews
Works well once you spend the time to set it up. Would be good if you can program it from the base rather than just an app. Would also be better if you can re map the rooms individually rather than having to re do the whole house. Show details · 1
Follow-up · I’m finding it doesn’t get some marks off the vinyl plank floor - I need to use a mop. It does take all day to vac and mop so find it’s quicker to get the stick Dyson out more often than I thought I would. I obviously realised I’d need that for behind the doors etc when Dreams can’t reach. Dreams still ok though - just don’t expect a quick job.
Fantastic! Responsive and proactive customer service when the delivery address was unable to be delivered to, Morgan and Emma from the customer service where great! They followed up without any prompting from customer side which was very much appreciated. Show details · 1
Would score 4.5 if I could. This does a stellar job for daily vac and mopping. Like any robot vacuum, he does as good of a job that you prepare him for (eg lifting furniture to allow for better access). The auto empty station is wonderful and mopping pads are cleaned and steralised well. I still wash the mopping pads weekly. Really glad of the… Read more · 1
purchase as it makes daily cleaning much easier. Still definitely need a thorough vac weekly and think he is better suited to hard surfaces than carpet. The app is a bit slow / laggy so that is the only downside.
Negative reviews
Arrived and didn’t work. The worst part was dealing with their customer service which is appalling and slow. I had no trust in them after that and elected to get a refund instead of a replacement because I wouldn’t trust that they would help in the warranty period if anything went wrong. Not worth it when the after sales service is so bad.
We understand your concern and appreciate you sharing your… Read more
I ordered this in white, with a screen shot of the helpdesk saying they only had white in stock. So of course the one I received was black and it is a large item, big and ugly in black. It took Dreame over a week to confirm I was sending it back for a refund, I was constantly chasing them for a response. The item was supposedly on sale for$2k,… Read more
reduced by $1k. After a week to get the item sent back they the took another week to sort the refund. I can't recommend them at all, if something went wrong with the Dreame unit I would have this level of service to deal with. I bought a Roborock Qrevo in white for $1,500 and I am very pleased with it.
Hi Louise, Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely… Read more
I paid $3,000 for the Dreame X50 Ultra from JB Hi-Fi and it has been a huge disappointment. The mopping function failed within months. The mop pads do not auto-attach and fall off during use, so the machine cannot perform one of its main advertised functions. I even purchased new pads at my own expense, which made no difference. Customer service… Read more
has been just as bad as the machine. Calls disconnect after about 5.5 minutes, making it almost impossible to speak to anyone. Responses have been slow, generic, repetitive, and generally unhelpful. Even after providing videos, emails, proof of purchase, and following troubleshooting steps, the issue is still unresolved. They want me to return the unit without any clear plan and after reading all of these other reviews it looks like returning it would be disastrous!
For a premium-priced product, both the machine and the after-sales support have been terrible. I would not buy from Dreame again.

So far so good. Most of my home is vinyl floorboards which I'm impressed with the vacuuming and washing. Carpets not so good, but I think this is common with most robot vacuums, I just set it to clean these rooms more often. I wish I could change the voice, sadly it is only female, I would to have the choice of male since I generally give butlers names :) Show details · 1

We have had our Dreame X50 Ultra for 11 months now and we've just started having issues with it, the main issues are; - it gets stuck on the little ramp - tells me to remove mop pads, when they have been removed - tells me to manually install mop pads, when they're already installed - when it has an error and goes back home mid-way mopping,… Read more · 3
instead of continuing to mop where it left, it restarts its mapped mopping.
When it is working, it works great; we have polished concrete floors and it cleans them so well without leaving any streak marks. It vacuums amazingly, and we love how the little brushes gets around the feet of our chairs and tables.
I don't like how it says you can only use their cleaning product because it's expensive! We did buy some from amazon for the Dreame robovac, but that still wasn't cheap either.
One of my most favourite features is being able to operate it from my phone, so it cleans the floors once we have left the house.
Great well featured robot vacuum cleaner. Does an exceptional job mapping and cleaning. Finds its way home with ease. It’s basically set and forget. Sometimes gets confused around furniture legs but manages complex navigation well. Show details · 1
Really good experience so far, have had minor issues such as mop pad falling off when getting stuck in some messy areas once in a while. But most days issues. The floor and carpet looks much cleaner since using it! Show details · 1
Really good machine - gets cat hair out of our carpet well (even the super soft, sticky stuff), vacuums hard and carpet floors, mops well. Ability to tell the machine to vac only, vac then mop, mop after vac (will vac without mop pads first) or just mop is great. Criticisms - mop pads sometimes fail to engage in the dock, meaning you have to… Read more · 5
manually attach them making remote/overnight mopping a bit of a gamble. Customer service from Dreame is questionable - emailed soon after receiving about the mop pad issue and haven't heard back.
Intelligent and cleans very well. Great to hsve mop & vacuum combination. The only drawback is the slow battery recharge and as it happens mid clean in our house, this makes the cleaning cycle long. Show details · 1
The Dreame X50 Ultra has exceeded my expectations. Excellent mapping, powerful cleaning, great obstacle avoidance, and a very convenient self-cleaning dock. It handles thresholds and low furniture better than most robot vacuums, and the app is easy to use. A premium product, but worth it for the convenience and smart features. Show reply
I’m in love. Never had a robo vac and just love my Macdreamy! Took me while to realise I needed to clean out dust filter on machine, it was blocked and leaving bits behind. Cleaned it and it’s all great now. My kids think I’m crazy as I set it going all the time. Love that my house feels clean. Show reply
Great to have for daily use on tiles and wooden floor. It is not great on the carpet though. About 5cm from the edges it won't clean perfectly but easy to prepare manually before using it. It sometimes confused and glitching the map. Within 3 weeks I need to remap the house twice. But over all, it helps me a lot to vacuum and mop floor area. Show details · 1
Excellent cleaning capabilities with little fuss. The app could be organised better. Too many locations for different settings makes navigation difficult. Editing house layout using iPhone is difficult and no option for removing rooms. Show details · 1

Our kelpie sheds so much hair. Not a problem for the Dreams x50 at all. Neither is the sand, drool and drinking water drips that our fur baby generates. On top of that we live in NW WA which is very dusty and that’s also no problem. I love this little robot and can’t recommend highly enough. Show details · 1
A friend recommended this and I thought it would good but it's actually life changing! My floors are clean every day. Vacuumed and mopped! Plus, I can program it to do different floors in the house - a big plus for me. No more carting the vacuum cleaner up and down the stairs. Show details · 2
Loving this! I have not vac'd or mopped my floors since having this arrive 2 weeks ago. I have 2 large dogs that dribble, shed some hair & pretty much come & go from house as they wish - so it can get a bit dirty. Love the option to 'deep clean', clean by room. It can curl back edges on some of floor rugs. Mostly loving it for hard floors, does… Read more · 1
vac carpet ok, though doesn't get the suction I'd like ie getting fine dirt from carpet - though I'm happy to vac those rooms myself once every few weeks or so. I'm getting used to settings and what this machine can do, especially coming home to clean floors!! - am in love with my "Danny Dreameboat"!
Early days. Arrived yesterday and it's mapped the house, down a full vacuum and mop of the house and a second, deep clean of the kitchen. All hardwood floors apart from a large, thick, mat under the main dining table which it successfully climbed onto, identified it as 'not' hardwood floor, retracted its mop pads and proceeded to increase the… Read more · 1
intensity of the vacuum function. It's ability to reach right into wall edges with its extendable arm and mop heads which extend in and out as required is truly impressive. The amount of dirty water that was emptied after both cleaning events (on what I considered to be a fairly clean floor to start with) was staggering. It's ability to navigate close to and around objects will have your following it around in amazement like a child with a new toy. Can't report on its long term longevity yet but from initial usage I'm impressed beyond words. We don't have pets so I can't comment on that side of things.
Upgraded from an older Roomba without mopping function because the x50 ultra got great reviews on multiple sites/YouTube channels and the best performer on choice.com and it's been excellent so far, very quiet and doesn't bump into things, only thing is you have to adjust the settings so it leaves the mop pads behind to not go over rugs/carpet but that was pretty straightforward. 10/10 do recommend.

I’m very disappointed with this robot vacuum, especially considering the high price. From day one, it has had multiple issues. The battery will not charge beyond 30% and then stops charging completely. It sends constant notifications day and night and sometimes turns on by itself without any scheduled or unfinished tasks. It also ignored the quick… Read more
mapping setup and went straight into cleaning, which made setup frustrating. Reaching the technical support team has been very difficult. For a product at this price point, these issues are extremely frustrating and make it hard to trust the reliability of the machine.

Loving my Dreame robot vacuum, it does a great job on my laminate flooring and is great with pet hair. I have a golden retriever who drops lots of fur and this helps keep it under control. It also mops which is great. Love how it raises up to go up small rises. Highly recommend it Show reply
I’m just going to list the bad and annoying things about this product. 1: the app connectivity is horrendous, the device is connected to the internet and the internet is working at 100%, but the app keeps saying the device is offline 70% of the time. I’ve actually had to take the top cover off the bot to improve the connectivity but only… Read more
slightly.
2: it says It can clear 60mm (6cm) obstacles and cannot even clear half that, I have a lip step going into my bathroom that’s 32mm (3.2cm) and it fails at that every day, needed to install a ramp.
3: ghost obstacles, it will completely miss areas because it detects something is blocking its path when there’s actually nothing there.
4: after playing with every setting to make it work more efficiently it still misses a 30mm (3cm) strip along every wall in the house.
5: it actually does not tell you if it’s canister is full, I found out yesterday that the bag was half full when I went to empty it, which is weird because it’s been 2 weeks. Turns out the canister door was locked and actually couldn’t empty itself, so I had to empty it and can I say that is a pain with tweezers.
6: it redefines its map layout, it turned half my toilet into my bathroom even though there’s a wall there, and it was a hassle trying to to get the app to readjust it.
7: it says it’s supposed to be quite but I swear it’s the loudest one I’ve owned.
