Dreametech D9 Robot Vacuum Review: Pros and Cons

This worked great for a little over 3 months when it got stuck in an endless loop of error messages. Turned off/on, rebooted and every other method but it’s now a useless paperweight that spouts error messages when you try to use it! Total junk now.

 We’re very upset, we loved the vacuum but now this is what we have, it’s extremely loud, smells like it’s smoking or something is burning. We’ve contacted the company and gotten no response. We have cleaned the filter, roller, garbage collector…

Only used it a few times. Seems to be okay. The mopping map is a quarter coming off already. It's super loud when it gets stuck on something. But doesn't have an annoying beep so that's a huge plus. I'll continue to use it for awhile to see if it does better but as of right now, not impressed with the mop pad coming off as it glides across the floors.

Overall, I would say this item was fairly good at vacuuming, for the brief time that it worked. It only worked properly for 3 months, then Broke. It could not function properly, and it was not clogged, nor was anything tangled around the inside.

My mom wanted this for her birthday, so we ordered it. She does not use it on the high pile carpet in the bedroom. It bogs down quite a bit. But she luvs it on the tile and hardwood floors. She does not have Wi-Fi, so she manually turns it on when she wants it to run.

I had a Neato D7 for about 6 years. I got it replaced once within the warranty for an issue and I had the battery replaced once and ran it about 2-3x a week on average. I had many frustrations with setting it up on the wifi, getting the app to connect, it getting stuck on absolutely nothing and generally causing issues with getting lost, couldn't find the base etc.
All the research and all the reviews and I finally pulled the trigger after my Neato died and stopped sucking anything up and it was going to cost around $200 to get parts replaced and bought this D9 Dreametech. Set up took about 20 seconds...SO EASY!! The first run and I could instantly tell the difference in the way it operated. It is very precise in its operation, quiet and FAST! It cleans much quicker than the Neato because it actually goes in a pattern instead of just willy nilly like my Neato did. I love this thing! I am sad I didn't make the switch earlier!

This thing rocks. It does a damn good job and really works hard to get into every nook and cranny it can. Its mopping function is awesome too (just add half cleaning vinegar and water) and I use it every night and keeps my wood floors looking nice and clean.. I can't speak for how well it vacuums on carpet but for hard floors it does great. I was willing to pay 3x the cost for a good one but read reviews that said it was just as good and well I have zero complaints. I run it daily. It occasionally will be a little confused but it fixes itself or you can just dock it and send it out again and it will be perfect. Great product! Easily one of the best purchases that has improved my quality of life and saved me a lot of time. Love it.

Just buy it! This is my 3rd robot vacuum and by far the best. I’m so impressed by how well it can get up and over one of the high transitions in my house (I almost didn’t buy it because I didn’t think it could) I’ve even watched it crawl over a bed frame which is at least a 3/4”square tubing. Hasn’t been hung up on any rugs. Does a great job cleaning! Highly recommended

Excelente producto y fácil de usar y manejarlo

Súper producto , el mapeo Perfecto, limpia muy bien , batería muy responsable.

This worked great for us for about 3 months now it keeps asking us to check filter. We replaced filter and it just keeps asking us to check filter. So beware of this problem. I currently wouldn't recommend spending $400 for a vacuum for less that 3 months of life.

Stone don't have the roller brush. This one does and high power suction.

Stopped working after 3 months, the broom on the bottom doesn't rotate anymore

This vac is a very good value. It has an excellent mapping program that is very easy to customize and set up. It was fascinating to see it learn and become more efficient with the first couple of cleanings. I tried a Shark, but it was very dated and noisy compared to this one.

very good

 Before buying, watch my video before considering whether to buy it

 I made the decal myself because space is the final frontier. The mapping is pretty impressive and accurate. Does a good job of cleaning everyday to keep the dog hair under control. I was surprised at how well the mopping feature worked as well. The self emptying vacuum dock is a luxury but definitely worth it. I probably would have bought the model with the self cleaning mop docking knowing how well the mopping works now. The only problem I've had is it won't connect with Alexa or Google home. Hopefully they fix the software issue with that. I haven't called customer service yet.

We have had two other robots in the past. Bothe were twice as expensive-and this is a MAJOR improvement. We do not have any carpet- all tile.

Great for its price in the sense that it doesn't aimlessly bounce off the walls. It'll miss some things but if you run it daily it'll be very clean. Be careful of wires but I haven't found a robot smart enough to avoid those. Easy to set up using the Mi Home app.

I originally thought it didn't come with the cleaning tool but it's well hidden in the machine. You have to flip the robot's lid up to see it.

I love it. Very practical, modern and conventional.

I've had the vacuum since November and it has become very loud when cleaning, and the battery life has dropped to an almost unusable state. I do the appropriate maintenance steps of cleaning the vacuum, this includes cleaning the dust bin and filter. It sounds like the vacuum is working a lot harder than it did when new, which would also explain the loss of battery life. I may update this review after dealing with the warranty process, but probably not, as I've been given a laundry list of things to try. If the steps in the list don't work I need to send a video. I went through this process once before with another brand of robot vacuum, and the list of steps to try just kept coming until I gave up on the entire warranty process and just called it a loss. Since both vacuum brands are under the Xiaomi umbrella, I don't expect this process to be any different.

I am so satisfied with it! It’s smarter than D9, although D 9 is good enough. It’s much better than other brand that falls in the same price range!

Works great on floors, Mapping and settings r fun and easy. V good Customer service. Needs little bit improvement for carpet vacuuming, But cleans well overall and much better than Other iRobot's.

Robot does a very good job picking up dog and cat hair. Our home is clean, clean, clean!

This is my 3rd robot vacuum, and this is the best so far. I love that it can prioritize rooms to vacuum first, and after a first quick pass of the house, it creates a pretty darn good map. Huge glass sliding doors however create a "fake" room outside our patio, which would be nice to cut off the map, but we just put an invisible wall through the app to not go through those areas.

REcommending to my parents for their new place as well.
