With the Dreame L10s Ultra, it already offered all the key features for a high-end robot vacuum – mop & vacuum, auto empty, mop cleaning, auto water refilling, AI+3D navigation, and more. It provided an automated cleaning experience. Well, almost all except that you have to remove the refill and clear the water tanks. The new Dreame L10s Ultra SE addresses this manual step involving the water tanks, making it even more automated than it already is.
What’s new with the Special Edition (SE)?
Dreame L10s Ultra SE is pretty much exactly the same as the Dreame L10s Ultra, just that it adds the Water Hookup Kit – for auto refilling and drainage of water. This is the dream for all the lazy people out there. With the Dreame L10s Ultra SE, you would only have to remember to clear out the dust bag every now and then.
