Dreame L60 Ultra PE

What testers say about the Dreame L60 Ultra PE

For anyone with thick rugs and a dog that sheds, the Dreame L60 Ultra PE works as a carpet machine first and a mop second.

Every strand of the pet hair that Vacuum Wars pressed flat into carpet came up behind the Dreame L60 Ultra PE. The 4.71 out of 5 the lab gave it for pet hair sits close to a full point over its 3.735 median. Sand went the same way, with 94 per cent of what was worked into the pile recovered, a result the lab set well above its average, and no long hair wound itself round the rubber brush. Dreame's figure for the motor is 30,000 Pa, and the usual one for a robot with a wash-and-dry station is 19,750 Pa.

The mop is the lesser half. Vacuum Wars found it put down so little water that dried stains stayed partly on the floor, and scored mopping 2.54 out of 5, a hair below the lab's middle. Just A Dad Approved landed at 7.6 on a card where 7.5 is ordinary. A kitchen floor with dried spills will therefore want a second pass. The pads are washed at 212 °F, with 167 °F the common setting elsewhere, and Just A Dad Approved noted that the robot is sent out again if the rinse water returns dirty.

At 4.1 inches the robot stands about 0.3 inches taller than its kind, enough to keep it out from under a low sofa.

Each point sums up, in our words, the review of the test it names, and its link leads to that review. We do not summarize RTINGS or Wirecutter: their lists are linked above.
