If you read "climbing robot vacuum" about the Dreame X50 Ultra and assumed that meant it's the first robot vacuum that can straight up go up stairs, you were kind of duped. But this doesn't mean that the Dreame X50 Ultra won't be one of the best robot vacuum values to come out of CES 2025.

Dreame still packed a ton of upgrades into the X50 Ultra that'll make it one of the most autonomous robot vacuums on the market, especially in its price range. Its debut price of $1,699.99 is... fine — the window between $1,399.99 and $1,799.99 is pretty habitual for the flagship robot vacuum from any main brand nowadays.

How to buy the Dreame X50 Ultra

However, the Dreame X50 Ultra becomes a real bang for your buck when you take advantage of its surprising preorder deal: Buying on Dreame's website before its official release on Valentine's Day unlocks a $390 coupon, making the X50 Ultra just $1,309.99. A three-year warranty plus an extra two years for free is also included in the early bird special.

You'll only have to put down $39 to claim yours, rather than coughing up the full amount up front.

The swiftness of this timeline is extra fun considering that April is the earliest you'll be able to get your hands on Roborock's biggest CES announcement, the Saros Z70.

Is the Dreame X50 Ultra worth it if it can't actually go up stairs?

I'll give a more solid answer to this question after I test the X50 Ultra in my apartment, but in theory, yes.

Though its threshold scaling was a bit of a bust (only due to WiFi issues!) during the live demo at CES, the X50 Ultra's lifting wheels are still pretty groundbreaking (if they work). Dreame's ProLeap system boosts the robot vacuum fully off the ground at an angle, and not just the lift that'd be required to go over a thick carpet or something. The X50 Ultra is said to be able to scale thresholds up to 2.36 inches, including double layer ones (like doorways with sliding doors). This capacity would also be helpful in homes that have, say, a child safety or pet gate in a doorway.

I've personally experienced the benefits of a robot vacuum with hydraulics like this with the Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro 2-in-1. It uses similar legs to boost itself significantly higher over carpets than other robot vacuums I've tried to keep non-hard floors dry or cross from one floor type to another without dragging across the threshold. So I'm picturing that, but even more versatile with the Dreame X50 Ultra — plus significantly more powerful cleaning.

I think that the X50 Ultra's 20,000 Pa of suction power should be advertised just as heavily as the climbing thing. That's more powerful than any of Roborock's most powerful 2024 models, including the $1,599.99 ($1,299.99 on sale) Qrevo Curv. It's also just 2,000 Pa less powerful than the Roborock Saros Z70 also announced at CES, which will apparently cost around $2,000. That tenacious suction should bode well on pet hair in tandem with the duo-roller design underneath — two brushes that spin toward each other are typically much better at digging up and pinching hair than a single roller.

More meticulous mopping is another of the Z70's strong spots. I'm psyched that it can be added to the list of hybrid robot vacs that can actually scrub in corners, thanks to a spinning mopping pad that reaches out past the vac's diameter to scrub along walls or in corners. (The Roborock Qrevo Master was my favorite robot vacuum and mop combo from 2024 because of its ability to wipe up droplets and splatters along the edges of my kitchen floor.)

Of course, the Dreame X50 Ultra also has smart mapping that can clean specific rooms or zones on command, and small obstacle avoidance that keeps it from sucking up things like cords or socks. After cleaning, it empties its own dust bin and washes its own mopping pads — the usual for premium hybrids.

Sold yet? Make your move and pre-order the Dreame X50 Ultra by March 2 to get it for $1,309.99.
