Introduction to Dreame V10

There are three different options of Dreame – File Dream V9And V9 Proand the V10 Pro. All three models have the same attachment, except for the hose tool, which is only available with the V10. Another similarity is the design, as all three have the same dust cup and trigger position with a few minor cosmetic differences.

The difference will be that the V10 Pro has an upgraded motor, but it uses the same 2500mAh Li-ion battery as the V9 Pro.

So, in essence, the V10 Pro has the most power out of all the options out there.

However, based on tests, the soft roller Does not require high air flow to be effective. Even at the lowest settings, it can still capture debris efficiently.

This is important because it allows people to use it for longer periods (More than 37 minutes in my tests).

Let’s have a look at Dreame V10 features one by one.

Ease of use and ergonomics

The V10 Pro has the same design cues as the Dyson V7 and V8. With the trigger, dust cup and actuator in the same area near the top.

So it has the same ergonomic qualities as the Dyson, but with lower steering.

It adopts a similar steering mechanism as other Xiaomi products, so it doesn’t move smoothly or effortlessly.

Three adjustable power settings

The Dreame V10 has three different power settings – Low, Medium, and Max.

There is a slide switch behind the motor that helps users toggle between the three settings.

In your daily cleaning chores, you may not need to use the medium or high settings because the soft roller attachment will do a good enough job of picking up debris such as dust and even sand.

I would even encourage using the low setting when mopping floors because the fine roller bar rotates slower at this setting and prevents some debris (like quinoa and pet litter) from ricocheting forward.

How much power does the Dreame V10 have?

To measure the power, I used an anemometer to determine the airflow on the wand and the main cleaning head. I think this is a file A good indicator of how well the vacuum captures Dirt on a variety of surfaces.

But other factors such as the brush roller design are also important.

Here are the results

air flow	Little	middle	Average
a stick	24.87 cubic feet per minute	32.65 cubic feet per minute	51.89 cubic feet per minute
cleaning head	23.39 cubic feet per minute	28.52 cubic feet per minute	41.31 cubic feet per minute

It does not have as much airflow as other premium models like Dyson at 10And V11and the Tineco Pure One S12.500 mAh.

Airflow numbers on the V10 Pro are closer to numbers Dyson V8 and the Roborock H6.

Dust cup design and capacity

It has a slightly smaller 0.5 liter Dyson V8 canister. This model has the same vertically aligned enclosure with a trap door on the bottom, but it lacks the sanitary system that all newer Dyson wire-free products have.

The outer cover of the dust cup is not removable; However, the main filter assembly (charcoal and silver part in the middle) is washable. So cleaning it completely won’t require any special tools like Dyson.

It has only one pre-engine filter and does not contain any post-motor filter. The filter itself consists of two parts, a HEPA and a cylindrical foam filter in the middle.

I’m not sure why there is an extra foam filter, but it could just be an extra filtration.

Tools and attachments

The Dreame V10 includes seven accessories that give this cord-free product plenty of versatility.

These include the following:

1. Soft roller: The essential tool for cleaning floors. It works best on hard surfaces, but it can be used on carpet, at least to pick up surface dirt.

2. Upholstery Brush/Tool Set: The first two combined tools with a retractable brush tool and an upholstery tool. It works well for picking up large debris such as chiaros or fruit rings.

3. Compound brush/crevice tool: The second blending tool which contains a brush and a slit tool.

4. Flexible hose: Hose tool extends the reach of non-electric tools for cleaning small spaces inside vehicles or homes.

5. Small Turbo Brush: Excellent tool for cleaning carpet stairs, upholstery and mattresses.

6. Stick Extension: A device that converts this product From a handheld vacuum cleaner to a vacuum cleaner And it extends reach when you need to clean high areas.

7. Charging / Docking: A tool that mounts to the wall to store this broom upright to save space.

How long does the Dreame V10 run?

Dreame claims this vacuum will last up to 60 minutes, and I did some testing to see if this claim held true with and without a basic brush roll.

With the plural tool attached, this blank Run for more than 64 minutes at the lowestand using the soft roller tool, I ran Mark past 37 minutes.

Know that even at low settings, the V10 Pro has enough airflow to pick up various types of debris in both stick and portable configurations.

So it’s not just a marketing gimmick.

How does Dreame V10 clean?

Much like other vacuum cleaner brands like DysonAnd TENICOAnd sharkDreame has a range of tools at their disposal for cleaning different parts of the house.

You can use this product in a variety of configurations such as a handheld vacuum cleaner.

Remember that the primary function of this space is Clean hard surfaces such as hardwood.

The soft roller attachment is excellent for the job. She was able to clean various types of debris from Cheerios to sand on carpets and hard floors.

One issue is not cleaning up a pile of fruit loops as they can get clogged in the narrow path to the dust cup, so this is the V10 Pro’s maximum size. Anything smaller than fruit rings, won’t cause any cleaning problems.

Even with its portable configuration, it will not have problems with cleaning agents like Quaker oats, sand, dust, etc.

I like how the power is usable even at low settings.

cleaning performance

To see how well the Dreame V10 cleans dirt on carpets and hard floors, I ran a series of tests using different types of debris such as coffee, Quaker oats, quinoa and pet litter. I’ve also run other tests with sand and fruit rings in separate tests to see how they work on these types of tamper.

The tests were conducted on three different surfaces – hard floor, low pile carpet, and medium pile carpet.

• Total: 82%
• Solid ground: 99.82%
• Carpet (pick up surface): 94.73%
• Carpet (deep cleaning): 51.5%

hard floor results

The V10 soft roller attachment works best on hard floors as most attachments of a similar design.

Here are the results of tests on coffee, Quaker oats, quinoa, and pet litter (pictures in that order).

• Quaker Oats: 99.4%
• coffee: 99.9%
• Quinoa: 100%
• pet litter: 100%

The soft-roller attachment performed best on hard floors as evidenced by its average score, choosing 100% in both the quinoa and pet litter test and nearly 100% in the Quaker Oats Test and Ground Coffee Test.

One thing to note is the tendency of the soft roller to spray dirt forward, especially if you are cleaning something hard like quinoa or pet litter.

It’s more common when cleaning large groups of dirt, but not so much when they are farther apart.

The splattering is due to the soft roller attachment for fast rotation, which is why I like the Duo Clean head best when cleaning hard floors because it doesn’t spin as fast in hard floor mode.

Sand test on hard floor

Sand is one of the hardest things to clean on hard surfaces. To test how capable the Dreame V10 is, I tested it on 50 grams of sand.

She was able to catch An average of 99.5% of sand in two tests. So he was able to clean all the sand particles on the hard floors in the slightest.

I want to note that some sand is scattered forward, but a soft roller can pick up debris on subsequent passes.

The Dreame V10 is an excellent and less expensive alternative for people who live in a sandy area.

carpet cleaning test

Now, we’ll take a look at how the Dreame V10 works on carpet.

low stack results

• Quaker Oats: 98.4%
• coffee: 97.6%
• Quinoa: 97.9%
• pet litter: 99.8%

On a low-pile carpet, the Dreame V10 did well in picking up surface dirt and picked up average in the high 90s in all tests—not bad for a tool that’s only supposed to work on hard surfaces.

Medium stack results

• Quaker Oats: 96.5%
• coffee: 83.6%
• Quinoa: 91.3%
• pet litter: 92.8%

You will notice in the results that the finer the debris, the less it will catch, which is consistent with the problem of rollers on carpet. It will only pick up debris on the surface.

The V10 struggled the most with cleaning the fine coffee beans, which is to be expected because the fine cylinder can’t pick up built-in dirt.

Overall, I still like the results, but don’t expect too much from this broom on thick, pile carpets.

deep cleaning test

Even if the soft roller wasn’t designed to clean up built-in dirt, I had to test how well it picked up sand on medium-pile carpets.

I rubbed 100g of sand and ran the V10 Pro on its highest setting to see how much sand it could pick up.

Was able to capture a file Average of 51.5% in two testswhich is pretty good for something without bristles.

How loud is the Dreame V10?

This vacuum cleaner is one of the noisiest options I’ve tested to date, beating out 76.5dB at the highest setting, and it’s about as loud as the Dyson V10 and V11.

Note that all noise tests are performed using a sound meter with the primary brush roller.

Does the Dreame V10 offer a good value?

When you consider the price of the V10 Pro against other brands like Jimmy or Roidmi, it is on the high side.

While performance and uptime are impressive, the lack of aftermarket support is of some concern to me.

This model is not available on Amazon, so those who live in the US or Canada will have to purchase it from stores like AliExpress or GearBest.

Although you can buy parts like the extra battery from AliExpress, shipping to the US or any western hemisphere country will take longer because it will come from China.

I would say a cheaper Dreame V9 (Pro or non-Pro) will provide a better value because the power bump doesn’t necessarily reflect on cleaning performance.

In essence, there won’t be much difference in terms of how clean the Dreame V9 and V10 are.

The attachments that come with the V9, V9 Pro, and V10 Pro are the same, so there is no further incentive to get the latest version.

4 Reasons to Buy Dreame V10

Verdict: Who buys the Dreame V10

People who need a good quality vacuum cleaner that can clean hard surfaces will benefit most from the Dreame V10.

Based on tests, this model is better than Jimmy JV 51 When it comes to cleaning hard surfaces.

The soft-cylinder attachment does an excellent job of picking up debris without pushing bits of it forward, as was the case with Jimmy.

There is no doubt about the performance of this vacuum cleaner as it does a great job, especially on hard floors.

One of my concerns is the availability of parts because they are not available on Amazon. If you don’t mind buying these parts from Aliexpress, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this vacuum.

You can save some by going with the cheaper Dreame V9 since the V10’s increased power does not affect its performance on hard floors.

Both models perform well on this surface, and both will have the same set of tools.
