Awesome review as always Pat. Especially loved the doggo guest appearance 🙂

She was pretty keen on the popcorn :)

Thanks for this. I've been really curious about cleaning bots. I'll likely get one at some point in the future and now I know more about the features that matter.

Glad to hear :)

Thanks for this review Pat. Definitely the smart and radar functions are a must on these robots.

The way to run this test. 2 robots. "seed" the room, run the test with robot A, Now run robot B. see how much B picks up that A missed. Clean up. Re read the room, run the test with robot B, now run robot A. Again see how much A picks up that B missed. Clean up. The point is to see which one missed the most on that first pass that was gotten on the 2nd. If A gets more on the 2nd pass then B then A wins as B missed more etc.

Good call, I might have to do this next time.

I have both of these and the hardware is almost identical except for the unnecessary mopping pad on Dreame, but Dreame has navigation/scheduling, so it's an upgrade by miles. Basically, Trouver M1 is Eufy 11s with a brain. Also, Dreame handles thresholds much better. In term of cleaning, Dreame picks up better due to being more consistent and it does not miss spots. I always run it on 2x regardless of dirt level because this type of robot kicks some debris to the sides on a single pass but will pick it up on the crisscross run.

M1 is a good chip.

Nice

So, here's the question, what's the difference between the M1 and the L20. Particularly because the L20 is almost 10× the price!

M1 has no auto empty and mop cleaning dock, its has much lower suction power, much smaller battery, and the mop does not ocilate, it only has one brush.

There is really nothing in common other than both being robovacs, completely different hardware and software. M1 was made by another manufacturer for Dreame as a low-end model but it runs on DT app. L10 ultra is last year's flagship model and was one of the most advanced robots on the market less than a year ago.
