A Vacuum Cleaner That Decides the Best Direction to Tidy Up: That’s What Makes It Beautiful

Of all the monumental events that one might mark on the second last Friday in July (including the formation of One Direction 14 years ago!), this year’s date is an opportunity to celebrate another sure-to-be-hit – the release of the Dreame X 40 Ultra. An over-enthusiastic response to the release of another cleaning device? Perhaps. But, then again, this is no cookie-cutter robotic vacuum cleaner. Here’s why.

Heading in One Direction (The right one)

If a boy band were to (hypothetically) belt out all the reasons that make the Dreame X 40 beautiful, the list would be long. For example, there is the robotic vacuum cleaner’s  Ultra CleanGenius Management system – which automatically identifies room types and recommends the most suitable cleaning strategy for each room. This dynamic function of recognising your bathroom from your bedroom, allows for a personalised approach, making it perfect for homes with varied cleaning needs. Then, there is the upgraded camera in the X40 Ultra that can also detect heavy stains, automatically lift the side brush, and adjust mopping speed for thorough stain removal.

The Dreame X40 Ultra’s Omni Sensitivity & Obstacle Avoidance feature further enhances its ability to navigate and clean your home with precision. The RGB camera and 3D structured light help identify and avoid up to 120 types of objects, including shoes and cables. The built-in LED allows it to clean efficiently in dim spaces and dark rooms. Users can create detailed maps, set no-go zones, and establish virtual walls for more efficient route planning. This feature ensures that the X40 Ultra can clean in organised rows or pinpoint specific areas for targeted spot-cleaning.

Finally, the X40 Ultra also offers versatile carpet cleaning strategies, providing tailored care for low- to high-pile carpets. It ensures carpets remain dry and continuously clean, adapting its cleaning method to the specific type of carpet in your home. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for households with a mix of carpeted and hard floor surfaces. And, certainly no one-hit wonder!

The X(40) Factor

When it comes to the X Factor, the Dreame X40 Ultra has it in excess.And, it extends beyond its name. To start, one of the standout features of the Dreame X40 Ultra is its SideReach Technology. Which features a side brush that can extend up to 10mm. This technology is particularly useful for cleaning around curved furniture legs and in right-angle corners with impressive efficiency. By preventing cross-contamination between dry and wet messes, especially on carpets, the X40 Ultra ensures a thorough clean every time. The combination of the side brush, main brush and mop working in harmony allows for optimal cleaning results in various home scenarios.

High notes … and a few lows

One of the Dreame X40 Ultra’s high notes is its ability to go low. Literally. An excellent example of this is Dreame X40 Ultra’s MopExtend RoboSwing Technology, which is designed to tackle hidden debris under low-profile furniture. With a mop extension of 4cm, this robotic vacuum cleaner can reach areas that are typically missed by other cleaning devices. The auto mop extension, further swing and retraction capabilities allow it to clean multiple corners and gaps. Whether it’s under tables, chair legs, or along wall baseboards, the X40 Ultra delivers a thorough clean in hard-to-reach places.

Powerhouse pipes

Equipped with industry-leading 12,000Pa suction power, the Dreame X40 Ultra has some serious chops. And, effortlessly picks up hair, dirt, dust and other debris. The optimised air duct design ensures efficient airflow, keeping passageways unobstructed for smooth and effective cleaning sessions. Additionally, the optional anti-tangle TriCut brush further prevents tangles, saving you time and effort. This powerful suction capability makes the X40 Ultra ideal for households full of furry friends, and family members who like to pop in and out on the regular.

Seventh heaven

Finally, one of the most impressive features of the Dreame X40 Ultra is its 7-in-1 Auto Base Station Care. This multifunctional base station offers a range of features and functions that wouldn’t look out of place in a manufactured boy band (if this robotic vacuum cleaner was an archetype, it would be “The All Rounder”). All significantly reducing manual intervention in the process. 

The base station washes the mop with 70°C hot water, effectively removing tough dirt and minimising stain residue and odours. It also features an upgraded duo-scraper for simultaneous scrubbing of the washboard and mop, eliminating the need for disassembly.

Additionally, the base station blow-dries the rotary mops for two hours with warm air, preventing mildew formation and unpleasant odours. It automatically adds water to a 4.5L tank, ensuring the mops remain wet and properly mixed with the cleaning solution for effective hard floor cleaning. Making it an all-round chart-topper. 

The Dreame X 40 Ultra robotic vacuum cleaner is now available for purchase for a RRP $2799 at dreame.com.au. Other Dreame items are also currently on sale at amazon.com.au
