Introduction
The Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 2 arrives on the market in 2024 as a comprehensive proposition within the high-end range of robot vacuum cleaners with multifunction station. It stands out particularly for its suction power of 10000 Pa and a mopping system with extendable RoboSwing mops, features that position it as a versatile solution for homes seeking to fully automate the maintenance of their floors.
Power and Cleaning System
The 10000 Pa Turbo Force power enables the Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 2 to tackle all types of dirt, from fine dust to heavier debris embedded in carpets. The single silicone main brush facilitates cleaning and reduces hair adhesion, although it's worth knowing that a Tricut brush can be fitted if greater anti-tangle capacity is needed. This option proves especially useful for homes with pets, where long hairs tend to be a recurring problem. The robot achieves 20 mm of capacity to overcome obstacles, which in practice means it can navigate thick carpets and small level changes without getting stuck.
Mopping System
The mopping system incorporates two rotating mops that spin at 180 RPM, guaranteeing deep cleaning of hard surfaces. The most interesting feature of this model is its RoboSwing 3.0 technology, which allows the mops to extend to reach edges and corners that would normally remain unmopped. The mops lift up to 10.5 mm when the robot detects carpets, avoiding wetting them during the process. The multifunction base takes care of washing the mops with cold water during the cleaning cycle, ensuring they always work in optimal conditions. Upon completion, it dries them at 45°C to prevent bad odours and bacterial growth. This automatic washing and drying system drastically reduces manual maintenance, as the user doesn't need to worry about cleaning the mops after each use.
Navigation and Intelligence
The navigation system combines a 360° LIDAR turret with a front 3D laser sensor, which allows the robot to map the home with precision and detect obstacles before colliding with them. It recognises pets and adjusts its behaviour accordingly, avoiding disturbing them during cleaning. The CleanGenius 2.0 technology provides an additional level of intelligence, adapting cleaning parameters according to the conditions of each room. This combination of sensors and algorithms translates into more efficient routes and fewer manual interventions to resolve blocking situations.
Autonomy and Practical Use
With a 5200 mAh battery, this robot vacuum cleaner offers up to 240 minutes of continuous autonomy. In practice, this allows cleaning of large homes of over 200 m² in a single session without the need for intermediate recharging. The internal tanks have a capacity of 300 ml for dust and 80 ml for water, sufficient to complete full cycles before returning to the base. The diameter of 350 mm and height of 97 mm allow it to slide under most furniture without difficulty.
Base and Maintenance
The second-generation multifunction station integrates everything necessary for maintenance to be minimal. The 3.2 litre dust bag stores enough dirt for several weeks, whilst the clean water (4.5 L) and dirty water (4 L) tanks guarantee prolonged autonomy in mopping. It includes a compartment for detergent, which improves results on particularly dirty floors. The dimensions of the base (340 mm wide, 590.5 mm high and 456.7 mm deep) require dedicated space, but in return offer almost autonomous management of the robot. There is the possibility of acquiring a pipe connection kit to completely eliminate the need to manually refill and empty tanks.
Conclusion
The Dreame L10s Ultra Gen 2 presents itself as a solid option for those seeking a robot mop with complete station and minimal maintenance. It proves especially suitable for large homes with pets and a combination of hard floors and carpets, where its power, autonomy and extendable mopping system make a difference in day-to-day life.
