Introduction
The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 and the Roborock Qrevo S Pro represent two distinct philosophies within the robot vacuum universe. The Dreame model, launched in 2024, positions itself as a vacuuming solution with auto-empty, whilst the Roborock Qrevo S Pro, introduced in April 2026, opts for a complete system that integrates vacuuming and mopping with a multifunctional base.
We are looking at devices that differ significantly in their approach. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 focuses on efficient vacuuming with a base that automatically empties the dust bin, ideal for those seeking a straightforward solution. The Roborock Qrevo S Pro goes further, incorporating a mopping system with rotating mops and automatic washing at the base, designed for users who need comprehensive floor cleaning.
Power and Suction
The difference in suction power is enormous. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 offers 6,000 Pa, a figure adequate for daily cleaning in homes without thick carpets. The Roborock Qrevo S Pro triples this figure with 18,500 Pa, a power that makes a difference on carpets, tile joints and floors with ingrained dirt.
Both feature a simple silicone main brush, a design that considerably reduces hair tangles compared to traditional bristle brushes. Neither incorporates main brush lifting during mopping.
Regarding the side brush, the Roborock Qrevo S Pro integrates anti-tangle technology that the Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 does not include. This facilitates maintenance and is especially useful in homes with pets or people with long hair. Neither model features an extendable or liftable side brush.
Mopping
Here we find the most substantial difference between both robots. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 incorporates a basic static mop, a passive system that drags the cloth across the floor without active movement. This type of mopping serves for light maintenance, but does not replace a traditional mop.
The Roborock Qrevo S Pro mounts two rotating mops that spin at 200 RPM, applying pressure and movement to remove stuck-on stains. The difference in results is notable, especially on kitchen floors or high-traffic areas.
Mop lifting marks another important distinction. The Roborock model lifts the mops 10 mm when detecting carpets or rugs, avoiding wetting them during the cleaning process. The Dreame lacks this system, which limits its versatility in homes with a combination of hard floors and textiles.
Neither model allows automatic mop removal at the base nor incorporates dirt detection for automatic re-mopping. Both mop with cold water.
Navigation System
Both robots use 360° LiDAR turret to map the home and plan efficient routes. However, the Roborock Qrevo S Pro adds obstacle avoidance, a capability that the Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 does not possess. In practice, this means the Roborock can dodge cables, slippers or toys without user intervention.
The Qrevo S Pro's SmartPlan 2.0 system adds a layer of artificial intelligence to optimise cleaning routes according to floor type and detected dirt level. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 lacks this functionality, limiting itself to conventional mapping and navigation.
Neither incorporates a front camera, pet recognition, curtain detection nor LED for night vision. Both are compatible with external voice assistants such as Alexa or Google Home.
Battery Life and Battery
Both models mount 5,200 mAh batteries, but battery life differs significantly. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 achieves 285 minutes of continuous operation, whilst the Roborock Qrevo S Pro reaches 180 minutes. This difference is explained by the Roborock's higher suction power and active mopping system, which consume more energy.
For homes up to 150-180 square metres, the Qrevo S Pro's battery life is sufficient. The Dreame, with its nearly five hours of battery life, can cover larger surfaces without needing intermediate recharging, an advantage in large flats or entire floors.
Smart Features
Both robots overcome obstacles up to 20 mm in height, a standard capability that allows crossing door joints or small level changes between rooms. Neither incorporates a robotic arm nor its own voice assistant, features reserved for higher ranges.
Multifunctional Cleaning Base
The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2's base is limited to auto-emptying the dust bin into a 4-litre bag. It does not wash or dry mops because the robot's mopping system is passive and does not require automated maintenance.
The Roborock Qrevo S Pro incorporates a complete multifunctional base. It empties dust into a 2.7-litre bag, washes the mops with hot water at 75°C during and after each mopping session, and dries them with hot air at 45°C to prevent bad odours and bacterial growth. The clean and dirty water tanks hold 4 and 3.5 litres respectively, sufficient for several sessions without manual intervention.
Washing with hot water improves the removal of grease and stuck-on dirt from the mops. Hot air drying speeds up the process and ensures the mops are ready for the next clean without generating persistent moisture.
Neither model includes self-cleaning of the wash tray, UV disinfection, detergent tank nor plumbing connection.
Dimensions
The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 measures 350 mm in diameter and 96.3 mm in height. The Roborock Qrevo S Pro reaches 353 mm in diameter and 96.5 mm in height. The differences are minimal and neither offers a significant advantage for passing under low furniture.
The bases present more noticeable variations. The Dreame's occupies 298 mm in width, 427 mm in height and 406 mm in depth. The Roborock's requires more space: 340 mm in width, 519 mm in height and 487 mm in depth. This difference is due to the water tanks and the integrated washing and drying system.
In homes with limited space, the Dreame's more compact base facilitates placement. The Roborock needs a corner with more clearance, especially in height.
Real-World Usage Experience
The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 works well in homes where the priority is vacuuming and mopping takes a back seat. The 4-litre bag allows forgetting about maintenance for weeks, even in homes with pets. The 285-minute battery life covers large homes without intermediate recharges.
The Roborock Qrevo S Pro is designed for users seeking professional results in both vacuuming and mopping. The 18,500 Pa power guarantees deep cleaning on carpets and textured floors. The rotating mop system with automatic washing and drying at the base offers real mopping, not just superficial maintenance. Mop lifting allows cleaning mixed homes without concern for carpets.
In homes with pets, the Roborock's anti-tangle side brush reduces maintenance. Obstacle avoidance minimises jams with cables or toys. The Dreame requires better preparation of the space before each clean.
For hard floors exclusively, both work correctly. On parquet or wooden flooring, the Roborock's mopping should be configured with caution to not exceed the recommended moisture. The Dreame, with its static mop, is safer in this respect although less effective.
Conclusion: Which to Choose?
Choose the Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 if: You're looking for a straightforward robot vacuum focused on vacuuming, with auto-empty and minimal maintenance. It's suitable for large homes thanks to its extended battery life, and for users who don't need intensive mopping or prefer to mop manually occasionally. The 4-litre bag and compact base facilitate integration in any space.
Choose the Roborock Qrevo S Pro if: You need a complete cleaning solution with real and automatic mopping. The 18,500 Pa power makes a difference on carpets and floors with persistent dirt. The multifunctional base with mop washing and drying with hot water and air guarantees hygiene without manual intervention. Ideal for homes with a combination of hard floors and carpets thanks to mop lifting, and for users who value obstacle avoidance and intelligent cleaning. It requires more space for the base but offers total autonomy in vacuuming and mopping.
