DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat: a major upgrade of the top vacuum cleaner robot

Dreame Bot L10s Pro Ultra Heat Dreame

Hey guys, welcome to Robotobzor! Today, we’ll take a look at another Dreame robot vacuum cleaner, the 2024 DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat. The model is an improved version of the popular Dreame Bot L10s Ultra. The cleaning module, the station, functions and even the suction power has been upgraded. In this review, I’ll tell you everyhting you need to know about this robot, test it, and give my opinion on it. And the price at the time of the review is from $900-1000. Let’s get rolling!

Kit

The vacuum came in this branded box:

It’s important to note that the station is able to heat clean water up to 58 degrees (136 F) when washing wipes, followed by air drying the wipes.

Overall, some serious changes have been made. If you’d like to see a detailed comparison of DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat with the previous L10sUltra, let us know in the comments below.

When you enter your password, the camera is turned on and the image is transmitted to your phone in real time. The picture quality is high. You can either manually control the robot or specify a place on the map where it should go by itself. You can also take photos, send voice messages through the robot’s speaker and set up a so-called guard mode. Very convenient.

What’s interesting is that you can now delete zones. For example, if a mirror creates a fake room. They also added the CleanGenius mode, in which the robot automatically determines the cleaning style depending on how dirty the room is, activating repeated cleaning or independently changing the power, as well as how wet the wipes are. This is a smart solution that improves cleaning efficiency and increasingly integrates AI into the robot’s algorithms.

You can also now flexibly customize how often you want your wipes washed by setting the station visits after a certain area traveled, after a certain time or after cleaning each room on the map. There is also a module diagnostic function for connection to the sewer and water supply, which indicates the compatibility of the model with this module.

In general, a lot of possibilities for flexible customization are implemented and this is a plus!

Testing

Video review:

And finally let’s get to the tests. First of all, let’s check the navigation of DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat in a room with obstacles. The robot vacuum cleaner goes first around the perimeter of the room, then cleans the entire available area in a zigzag pattern. The dryer legs gave it no trouble. Tthe robot swept around the box and chair legs separately, then returned to the station. The test was passed with flying colors.

As for the rest of the house, the robot cleaned room by room around the perimeter, then in a zigzag pattern. Every 15 square meters (49 ft.), as I found, it returns to the station and cleans, then starts cleaning from where it previously finished. Everythings left clean, so the navigation is spectacular!

Object recognition

The object detection system works well in good lighting. The robot saw 5 out of the 6 objects we placed on the floor, marking them accordingly on the map. The soft toy was just seen as an obstacle, but that’s fine. The main thing is that DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat doesn’t drive on wires, socks and what is especially important for many people – pet surprises. Recognized items are displayed with photos if you click on the desired icon.

But in complete darkness the camera goes blind and its efficiency is sharply reduced, moving all of the objects, which is due to the lack of lighting, as in the older DreameBot L20 and L30. It’s important to take this into account.

Suction power

But the suction power was impressive. DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat was able to suck out debris from cracks up to 10 mm (0.39 In.) deep, which is excellent. In comparison, the Dreame Bot L10s Ultra cleaned cracks only 2 and 4 mm deep (0.07-0.15 In.). This robot truly got a powr upgrade!

Dry vacuuming

The robot does a good job picking up different kinds of debris from the laminate floor. It only misses a bit in the corners since it’s round. All the debris goes into the dust collector. The central brush barely wraps any hair, and whatever does get on is really easy to remove. That’s a big plus with silicone brushes!

Carpet cleaning

But the silicone turbo brush too, has its downsides. For example, it doesn’t clean carpets as well, even with the high suction power. While it can handle low carpets pretty well, it can get stuck on medium carpets, which the DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat can’t handle. However, for everyday use, you should be fine with the carpet cleaning, even if you are an experienced robot-vacuum owner.

Self-cleaning quality

The self-cleaning quality is spectacular, leaving nothing in the container.

Dirt scrubbing

This robot vacuum cleaner is great at scrubbing away dirt. If it doesn’t clean the floor perfectly the first time, just send it back to its station. After washing the wipes, it’ll do a thorough job.

In our tests, one cleaning cycle was all it took.

Hard dirt scrubbing

But there are problems with scrubbing difficult stains. DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra Heat wipes, as well as the rest of the models in the line, don’t press on the floor very hard. As a result, it took 9 tries with the robot to scrub them away. At least it got it. Other models don’t show this result.

Blind zone

I’d like to point out right away that there is no blind spot between the edge of the mop and the baseboard, because the mop holder moves out to the right, which is awesome!

And one more important point – the robot has an updated mode of cleaning the floor along the baseboard and in the corners. Now, when it goes into the corners, it moves backwards with its rear end, and gets everything as tightly as possible. A very cool implementation from Dreame’s engineers.

Mopping and carpets

When mopping with carpets around, this robot can do a few different things. The best one is to lift the wipes automatically when it goes onto carpets. That way, the robot can vacuum and mop together, keeping the carpets dry.

Another option is to avoid carpets automatically while mopping. This helps if you have thicker carpets. The robot can also either mop with rotating wipes on carpets or clean the floor first before mopping around the carpets separately.

Wipe cleaning quality

Let’s test the station’s efficiency. Let’s start with the wipe cleaning quality. After all of our tests, the wipes are washed, but still don’t come out clean. But again, it wasn’t designed to handle all of that dirt. Water heating doesn’t greatly improve the quality of wipes washing.

However, in everyday household conditions the station washes mops well.

By the way, here’s how the platform looks after testing. Washing it isn’t hard at all. We just start a special self-cleaning mode on the station, the robot moves out, we remove the tray and ramp, wash the bottom with a brush, and the water drains automatically. Then, we wipe the bottom with a cloth and put back the tray and ramp after washing them separately. Overall, it’s pretty convenient!

Obstacle size

Obstacles measuring 2 cm (0.79 In.) aren’t a problem for our robot. That’s a plus!

Going over dark areas

It’s not afraid of dark surfaces either, going over them freely. Another big advantage.

Volume

As for the volume, it’s within the range of 58.5-72.5 dB. The volume is quite standard for this model, given the high suction power.

Opinion

DreameBot L10s Pro Ultra has been thoroughly reviewed and tested. Our evaluation system gave it 205 points and entered the top three in the overall ranking of tested robot vacuum cleaners, displacing DreameBot X30 Pro and behind only the older Dreame Bot L30 Ultra and Dreame Bot L20 Ultra Complete, which scored 219 and 217 points. I will highlight the pros and cons of the robot and then share my own opinion of it.

I liked the following:

  1. Retractable wipe that allows the robot to thoroughly clean areas along baseboards and furniture.
  2. An efficient station for self-cleaning, washing and drying the wipes. And it’s pretty compact.
  3. Washing wipes with hot water.
  4. Automatic detergent supply when washing wipes. I will add here that the tank with a filler hole is much more convenient than a cartridge like the L10s Ultra.
  5. Increased water tank capacity.
  6. Optionalutilities connection module available.
  7. High suction power.
  8. Object detection system available.
  9. Remote house monitoring connected to the robot camera through your phone.
  10. Ultimate mode, thanks to which the robot independently selects the cleaning algorithm.
  11. Improved floor cleaning algorithm in corners, where the robot maximally drives into the corner with its back end.
  12. High-quality mopping and vacuuming on any flooring.
  13. Turbo brushes are easier to clean from hair and fur.
  14. Automatic wipe lifting when driving on carpets.
  15. Easy maintenance of the robot and station.
  16. Lots of functions for easy customization of your parameters.
  17. Good off-road.
  18. Not afraid of dark areas.
  19. Quality assembly and high brand credibility.
  20. Availability of a warranty and service.

A for what could be improved:

  1. Doesn’t get all of the dirt in the corners completely.
  2. Scrubs off stains with great difficulty.
  3. The object detection system is blind in the dark.

In the end, Dreame Bot L10s Pro Ultra Heat is truly an interesting model to look out for, especially if it drops below $900, giving it a noticeable gap between itself and the Dreame Bot L20 Ultra Complete. Because robots in general are very similar, while the new L10s Pro Ultra Heat has a more compact station, it’s more convenient to pour detergent and has water heating. The L20 has its own strengths – it sweeps better in corners and is able to unhook the wipes on the station, plus it’s equipped with extras in the box. So compared with the earlier model, this one turned out to be more autonomous. There are a lot of differences, they were all highlighted within the review and there is really something to overpay for. Overall, we saw a model that transitioned us into a new age of robots, so I’d recommend it.

On this note, I’d like to end the review. If you still have questions, make sure to leave them in the comments down below. Have fun shopping, bye!
