Dream x40 - Robot that vacuums and mops!
One of our most fun additions to our rental units is the Dreame X40 robot vacuum and mop with automatic dirt disposal and self-cleaning base station. The Dreame X40 is an advanced automatic cleaner that runs on a daily schedule, or on demand, and both vacuums and mops for you—while disposing of the dirt and washing its own mop pads!
Our Dreame X40 units are scheduled to run every day at 11:00am (or let us know if you have a preferred time), and will automatically clean the living room, kitchen, and one preselected bedroom/bathroom each day. The average time to complete this cycle is approximately one hour. However, the Dreame X40 is intelligent (using features like CleanGenius mode), so if it detects extra dirt or areas needing more attention, it will automatically adjust—vacuuming more thoroughly, mopping harder floors with its dual spinning pads, or even going back over spots before continuing on to the rest of its programming. The mops automatically lift when it encounters carpet to keep them dry. In the event the battery gets too low to complete a cycle, the Dreame X40 will return “home,” charge itself, then restart itself to complete its daily tasks.
While our Dreame X40 units are scheduled to run daily, you can always start a manual clean cycle. You can press the CLEAN button on top of the robot, and the machine will clean the entire unit (about 1hr, 20 mins).
Every time the Dreame X40 returns home, you will hear a slight vacuum sound. This is the dirt being transferred from the robot to the internal collection bag inside the housing unit. At the same time, the base station washes the mop pads with hot water (up to 70°C / 158°F) and dries them with hot air—keeping everything fresh and ready for the next run. This keeps the dirt and dirty mop water away from you! Our rental preparation team routinely inspects the dust bags and water tanks, and replaces or refreshes them when necessary, as well as performs routine maintenance and cleaning on the robot. Please let us know right away if something needs our attention.
Guests are welcome to empty the dirty water tank and replace it with fresh water in the clean water tank on a weekly or bi-weekly basis (or sooner if the tanks look full). Simply pull the tanks out of the base station, empty the dirty water down a sink or toilet, rinse if desired, refill the clean tank with fresh water, and slide them back in. It’s quick and helps keep the system running at its best during longer stays. No need to add any cleaning fluid, as the machine as its own internal supply.
While these Dreame X40 robots are intelligent, sometimes electronics do have a mind of their own. We have noticed, for no apparent reason, the robot can become confused, such as just spinning around an area then go home without cleaning the rest. We call this it's having a bad Dreame. Normally, after a good night’s sleep, the robot wakes up the next morning and continues happily along its programming. However, in the rare event the Dreame X40 does not function normally for 2-3 days, please let us know, so we can do some additional troubleshooting.
