The mops are made of very soft synthetic fibre. So they do not chafe.
The question is what happens if a small hard object gets caught in it.
I have terracotta on it and haven't noticed any scratches after a year. And I have a lot of coarse dirt lying around.
The robot is fitted with fall sensors that normally prevent it from falling down stairs. Exceptionally, however, it may lock up if a wheel passes over a step, but this is rare. In addition, it is possible to define a virtual wall in the application to limit its access to dangerous areas such as stairs.
There is a guide on iFixit on how to open your robot, but after one year, you should still have a guarantee, so I would advise you to check this first. The rest depends on your skills.
I don't quite understand the problem, probably because of the gear ratio. Because the L10s can't put down its mops. And the fact that it drives past somewhere has nothing to do with the mops.
Basically, however, resetting the map helps with many navigation problems
On both sides, 15-20 cm is enough for us without any problems. Towards the front... well, it should be able to turn at some distance from the charging station. I would plan for 80 cm.
The main differences between these two models include:
- Suction power: The L10s Pro Ultra Heat offers a suction power of 7,000 pascals, while the L10s Ultra has a power of 5,300 pascals. However, you mentioned a power of 10,000 pascals for another model, which is not confirmed in the information available.
- Hot water cleaning: The L10s Pro Ultra Heat has a hot water cleaning function, which the L10s Ultra does not.
- Tank capacity: The L10s Pro Ultra Heat has larger water tanks (4.5 litres for clean water and 4 litres for dirty water) than the L10s Ultra (2.5 litres for both).
- MopExtend technology: The L10s Pro Ultra Heat includes MopExtend technology for improved edge cleaning.
Detection is probably via a reed contact. Take a neodymium magnet and position it in the rear area directly behind or slightly within the radius of the transition from the left side wall to the wall at the back side at the height at which your waste water tank has its magnet. If the app recognizes the magnet, it is the tank, otherwise it is the software or a part in the base station.
Of course, you are responsible for your own actions and I take no responsibility for anything you do with your robot.
With the L10s Ultra, Dreame relies on a combination of laser navigation and an infrared sensor on the front to recognise objects, as well as an AI camera with two intersecting lasers. This makes it possible to recognise even small objects such as toys, socks or cables and navigate around them accurately. With the L10 Ultra, on the other hand, the infrared sensor only recognises larger objects such as pieces of furniture. Due to the lack of a camera, the robot hoover cannot be used as a travelling surveillance camera while on the move. Compared to the L10s Ultra, you also have to do without the automatic refilling of the cleaning agent. Otherwise, the two models are identical.
I'm a bit irritated with the linked test report (96/100 CHIP Online single test).
Pretty much all the positive points have a corresponding negative point. For example:
[+ Enormous range of functions] <--> [- Below-average features], [- Features too few], [- Few features] and [- Few extras]
[+ Quiet] and [+ Very quiet operation] <--> [- Loud] and [- A little too loud]
[+ Excellent suction power] and [+ Impressive dust pick-up] <--> [- Only satisfactory suction and mopping performance]
Hi, I've had it for a few months now and we're very satisfied with the results. There are certainly better ones out there today, but it was the best you could buy (I looked at 20 reviews).
We have 2 cats and it's rare that it picks up mice that have been left on the floor. It's really good at moving around the flat, it doesn't replace a real hoover, but it does a really good job of keeping the flat clean every day. It can be programmed to be easy to use (for example, every day at 11.00am except weekends) and you can make it avoid certain places (a carpet that's too big, a cupboard, etc., etc., etc.) We're really very happy with it. It's still an average hoover :) (you launch it when you're not there, at any time directly from the app)
Of course! Detergent is optional. The addition can also be deactivated. And there's no fill level sensor either.
Also important: you can simply open the cartridge and pour in your own liquid. Of course, it should not foam and should be suitable for robots in some other way.
I use a terracotta cleaner from Lithofin, for example, which works wonderfully, I've already used 1 litre.
Of course, it's up to you which product you use.
But the original one is incredibly expensive and hard to get in Switzerland
