The Complete version is repeatedly praised for shipping with lots of useful extras, including spare bags, filters, brushes, mop pads, and cleaning solutions.
The box contents are comprehensive for an all-in-one robot: dock, ramp, mop pads, power cord, an extra dust bag, and printed guides, making it easy to get started without extra purchases.
The X60’s lifting system is a standout feature on paper and in many threshold tests, although some reviewers said it is not always refined or universally helpful in real homes.
This model does not include an adaptive lift chassis, which limits threshold climbing compared with the higher Edge model and some flagships. If your home has tall transitions, this is a notable constraint.
Reviewers who commented on appearance described the X60 as sleek, modern, and premium-looking, with upscale finishes.
Design is generally viewed as modern and clean, though some reviewers prefer the more premium-looking alternatives (for example Curv or flagships). The dock can look a bit industrial, but the robot and station still fit well in most rooms.
Smart features are extensive, from mapping controls and automation to dirt detection and voice integrations, but not every reviewer found those advanced features equally reliable or worthwhile.
Automation and smart features are a highlight: schedules, no-go/no-mop zones, multi-floor maps, granular suction and water control, assistant integrations, and dock control. Obstacle detection relies on structured-light style sensing rather than a camera on this model.
Area-rug handling is a weak spot in at least one review, where chassis-lift behavior hurt vacuuming on lower rugs and still did not fully protect thicker carpet.
Mop pads lift when carpet/rugs are detected and many users report rugs staying dry during transitions. Very high-pile carpets may still get damp depending on settings, so vacuum-first routines can be helpful.
Setup was described as especially easy, with quick app connection and a smooth initial onboarding experience.
Setup is described as straightforward: attach the ramp, plug in the dock, charge, pair to Wi‑Fi, and fill the clean water tank. Most reviewers report quick, hassle-free first run and mapping.
Charging is a consistent plus thanks to roughly 80-minute fast charging, while battery performance itself ranges from solid to only average once max-power cleaning is involved.
Battery life is repeatedly called a strong point, with a large battery and long runtimes on lower suction settings. Higher suction drains faster, and some testing shows max-power coverage below average, but typical mixed use is expected to fall in between.
The dock bag setup is well featured, but the onboard dustbin is a recurring tradeoff: reviewers liked the bag capacity and bin design, yet several called the robot’s internal bin small.
Uses a dock dust-bag system that empties cleanly and is easy to swap with minimal mess. Reported replacement cadence ranges from roughly 30–60 days to about 2–3 months depending on debris load.
One review explicitly called the build robust, pairing the slim form with a durable-feeling body.
On medium-pile carpet, the X60 posts clearly above-average deep-clean results in multiple tests, though exact scores vary by reviewer and setup.
Carpet cleaning is generally rated strong for the tier, including an above-average deep-cleaning score in testing and good pickup on rugs. Performance is not positioned as flagship-level, but it is consistently described as effective.
Debris prevention is not flawless: in one torture-style test the auto-empty process jammed under a very heavy load.
The brush and dock system handle heavy hair and mixed debris without frequent clogs, and auto-emptying is reported to work without choking on hair. Occasional checks are still advisable, but clogging is not a common complaint.
One benchmark-heavy review went so far as to place the X60 at the top of its current robot-vacuum rankings.
Across comparisons, the S5A is framed as upper mid-tier: strong fundamentals and automation, but behind flagships in obstacle avoidance sophistication and premium extras. Many reviewers still consider it a sweet spot when priced well.
App and control feedback is mixed: some reviewers found the mapping tools and redesigned app intuitive, while others called the software cluttered, confusing, or merely second-best to Roborock.
The Roborock app and controls are repeatedly called intuitive and customizable, with clear UI for maps, routines, suction, and water levels. Live video-style viewing is not available on this model, but core control is polished.
Corner cleaning is a strength when the side brush and edge systems deploy correctly, though perfection is not always claimed.
Corner cleaning improves notably thanks to an extending side brush, leaving corners visibly cleaner than many robots. Some reviews still note a small amount of leftover debris in tight corners.
At least one test specifically praised the X60’s grout cleaning, suggesting good pickup from grooves and textured hard-floor gaps.
The X60’s blue or proactive light is repeatedly described as helping it spot dust, stains, or debris that cameras alone might miss.
The dock dirt-detection and remopping concept can work well (for example, triggering a second pass after muddy paw prints). However, other testing reports it did not reliably detect certain dried stains, making the behavior inconsistent.
Docking and auto-emptying work well enough in normal conditions, but some reviews still stop short of calling the system flawless.
Docking and automation are consistently reliable in reviews: automatic dust emptying, water refilling, mop washing, and drying generally work as expected. The tradeoff is a larger dock footprint compared with simpler stations.
Dock noise is better than average in the supporting reviews, with self-emptying described as relatively subdued rather than startling.
Stain removal is a real strength overall, with strong coffee and hot-sauce results, though one review stressed that moisture and settings matter.
Handles common dried messes well, including muddy paw prints and dried coffee, often improving significantly on a second pass. Tougher stains like dried ketchup may require multiple passes and sometimes manual intervention.
Ease of use is generally good thanks to simple setup and intuitive controls, though not every reviewer agreed the deeper settings remain easy.
Edge cleaning is good in the best cases, especially along baseboards, but some homes with quarter-round or similar moldings expose clear weaknesses.
Edge and baseboard cleaning is a consistent strength, helped by an extending mop pad and flex arm side brush that can reach right up to walls. It is often described as better than most robot mops, though not always perfect in tight corners.
Edge-following is strong, with the robot staying close to walls and the mop pad reaching into baseboard lines. Reviewers often show it maintaining contact better than typical robot mops.
Emptying results are generally good in normal use, but not spotless, with leftover crumbs or maintenance caveats still appearing in some reviews.
Auto-emptying to a sealed bag keeps dust handling clean and hands off, and swapping bags is reported to be quick with minimal mess. This is a major convenience advantage for frequent cleaning.
The filter clearly captures fine dust and debris, but at least one review said it still needs frequent manual cleaning after auto-emptying.
One hands-on review explicitly said the X60 left the floor looking comfortingly shiny after mopping.
Fresh liquid pickup is reported as effective when mopping up spills like a glass of water, with the spinning pads absorbing and clearing liquid without leaving notable residue.
When hair does collect, it tends to channel toward the center of the split brush, making it quick to remove by hand. This is described as manageable rather than a major snagging problem.
Carpet hair pickup is excellent in the supporting reviews, ranging from near-total cat-hair pickup to a perfect flattened-pet-hair score.
Carpet hair pickup is usually strong, especially on rugs, though a few tests still show small amounts of hair remaining after a pass. Overall performance is described as better than average for this tier.
Hair pickup on hard floors is a standout, including long and even slightly damp strands, with users reporting thorough collection and minimal cleanup afterward.
Hair management is a major strength. Multiple reviewers reported little to no hair wrap, and several highlighted the anti-tangle dual-brush design.
Hair-wrap resistance is one of the biggest strengths: the DuoDivide brush and redesigned side brush greatly reduce tangles. In extreme stress tests, some hair may channel to the center and require a quick manual pull, but it is easy to clear.
Fine-dust pickup on hard floors is strong, with reviewers calling out litter dust, coffee grounds, or similar small debris as well handled.
Hard-floor fine dust pickup is repeatedly described as strong, including successfully collecting very fine particles like powdery debris without leaving a visible film.
The X60 generally handles larger dry messes well on hard floors, from cat litter and rice to leaves, paper, sand, and other chunky debris.
Handles larger debris well on hard floors, such as crumbs, rice, and oatmeal, often clearing scattered mess in a single run or a couple of passes.
An onboard blue light or similar assist light is explicitly mentioned as part of the X60’s sensing hardware.
This model is noted as lacking built-in LED or headlight illumination, which some reviewers say would help in dim rooms and for better obstacle detection.
The heating story is mixed. Several reviews praised heated mopping or hot pad washing, while others said real on-floor heat is brief or falls short of the advertising.
The dock uses heated processes (hot water mop washing and warm/hot air drying). Some testing questions whether advertised maximum water temperature is reached, but the heating still appears effective for pad cleaning and drying.
The X60 is portrayed as technically ambitious, with at least one review calling its slim body plus strong threshold climbing a major engineering achievement.
One reviewer specifically framed the fast obstacle reactions as useful in homes where kids leave toys on the floor.
One ad-vs-reality test found the X60 handled peanuts and similar larger debris well enough to count as a pass, though not perfectly.
The slim body is one of the X60’s most repeated positives, especially for low-clearance spaces and homes with furniture other robots cannot reach under.
The robot is relatively slim for a LiDAR-top model (around 4 inches / ~9.8 cm), helping it fit under more furniture than many competitors. It is still taller than ultra-thin flagships that remove the top LiDAR turret.
Maintenance is reduced compared with simpler robots, but not eliminated: reviewers still mention water use, dock cleanup, filter upkeep, and pad wear as ongoing chores.
Maintenance is largely hands off thanks to the auto-empty and mop-wash dock, plus reduced hair tangling. Users still need to replace bags, rinse/clean the dock tray occasionally, and maintain filters and pads.
Mapping tools can be strong, but path efficiency is inconsistent. Several reviews noted below-average navigation efficiency, occasional missed areas, repeated passes, or getting lost.
LiDAR-based navigation earns strong marks for fast, accurate mapping and efficient room coverage. Multi-floor support and reliable pathing are repeatedly highlighted as core strengths.
One review praised the ability to remove mop pads before carpet vacuuming, calling it a standout carpet-protection feature.
The mop lifting system (about 10 mm) works well for most rugs and carpets and helps prevent wetting during transitions. Very plush/high-pile carpet can still be challenging without using vacuum-first settings.
Mopping is broadly strong, especially on everyday hard-floor cleaning and many stain tests, but a few reviews said specific messes, settings, or marketing claims keep it from being flawless.
Mopping performance is widely praised: dual spinning pads, adjustable water output, and frequent pad washing produce clean, refreshed hard floors. Sticky dried stains may take multiple passes, but everyday grime is handled very well.
Noise was generally described as impressively restrained for a flagship with this much suction, though it is still louder on max than lower-power cleaning modes.
Generally quieter than many competitors; peak loudness is cited around 70 dB on higher suction, and real-home testing reports low disruption (pets barely reacting).
Obstacle avoidance is one of the X60’s signature strengths, with many reviews praising its reactions around cords, toys, and other objects, even if a few tests still found misses.
Obstacle avoidance is the most mixed area: some users see graceful navigation around common items, while multiple controlled tests show it can run over cables and miss smaller or low objects, especially on carpet. Camera-equipped models are consistently reported as better here.
Odor handling is a plus, with pet-odor solution support and positive comments about the dock avoiding bad smells during routine use.
Hot-water washing plus hot/warm air drying helps keep mop pads fresh, and at least one real-home review explicitly reports no lingering smells after repeated runs.
Ownership-cost concerns appear in at least one review because Dreame is said to approve only its own floor-cleaning solution.
Consumables are typical for an auto-empty robot: dust bags and periodic filter cleaning/replacement. Reported bag life of 30–60 days (or 2–3 months) helps keep ongoing costs manageable, but you may also buy cleaning solution since it is manually dosed.
Automation and low-touch cleaning are recurring strengths, especially with self-emptying, self-maintenance, and hands-free daily upkeep.
Overall sentiment is positive: most reviewers called the X60 one of the best or most capable robots they tested, even when they also flagged tradeoffs.
Pet-focused extras show up repeatedly, including flattened pet-hair performance, pet-odor detergent support, and app features aimed at pet zones and pet-related cleaning.
Well-suited to pet homes thanks to excellent hair pickup and anti-tangle brush design. It lacks camera-based pet recognition features found on higher models, but day-to-day pet hair cleanup is a standout.
At least one critical review argued the X60’s performance does not justify its $1,700 price, despite acknowledging real strengths.
Value is strongest when discounted, with multiple reviewers calling sale pricing an excellent deal versus higher models with cameras or chassis lift. At full price it sits in an upper mid-tier range and may feel expensive if you mainly want top obstacle avoidance.
The absence of a front-facing camera means no live video monitoring, which many see as a privacy benefit. The tradeoff is weaker camera-assisted obstacle recognition and fewer monitoring features compared with models that include an RGB camera.
Runtime is adequate rather than class-leading. Some reviewers reported solid coverage or long sessions, while others found square-footage-per-charge only middling at higher settings.
Measured low-suction runtime and coverage are impressive in testing, with the robot covering roughly 3,947 sq ft before reaching 0% battery, which is above average. Measured max-suction runtime and coverage are weaker in testing, with roughly 513 sq ft covered before depletion, which is below average. Expect significantly better results on mixed or lower suction settings.
Dock self-maintenance is a major strength overall, with repeated praise for hot-water pad washing, hot-air drying, and strong mop-cleaning performance.
The dock automates mop washing, pad drying, water refills, and in some cases self-cleaning of the base tray. Reviews generally find these cycles effective and appreciate the reduced hands-on maintenance.
Feature longevity got a qualified note in one review, which said Matter support may depend on future firmware updates.
The liquid system is one of the X60’s richer features, with repeated mentions of dual detergent compartments, pet formulas, and automated mixing or dispensing.
There is no auto solution or detergent dispensing tank, so cleaning solution must be added manually to the clean water tank. Multiple reviews call this a missed feature at this price.
One reviewer specifically praised the redesigned dock for being smaller and taking up less space than the previous generation.
The dock is described as larger because it houses clean/dirty tanks and the auto-empty system, so it needs dedicated floor space. Some comparisons note it is narrower than certain flagship docks, but it is still a sizable station.
One review specifically praised the X60 for leaving a streak-free sheen after mopping.
Mopping is typically reported as streak free on hard flooring, but heavy muddy messes can smear on an initial pass before pad washing and follow-up cleaning improves the result.
Threshold handling is strong in some homes and tests, but not universally foolproof, with reports ranging from no issues to stranding or wheel-suspension errors.
Most day-to-day runs are described as smooth with few stops, but the robot can still get caught by cables or a sock in some tests. Lack of chassis lift also limits its ability to self-recover on tall thresholds.
Across multiple tests, reviewers repeatedly highlighted the X60’s very high suction output and strong real-world pickup, even if one airflow test said raw pressure did not fully translate into the absolute best measured seal.
Strong rated suction (up to 18,500 Pa) and consistently good real-world pickup, even when lab airflow/pressure measures slightly below average. Overall cleaning results on hard floors and rugs are described as above average for the price tier.
One negative review said the X60 did not suit a cramped, cluttered home especially well.
The robot itself suits small spaces well thanks to efficient mapping, but the multifunction dock is relatively large. Homes with limited floor space near outlets may need to plan dock placement carefully.
Early sentiment in one review was cautious rather than fully confident, citing Dreame’s mixed reputation for long-term reliability and customer support.
Under-furniture cleaning is one of the clearest X60 advantages, with several reviewers saying the low body let it reach places other robots missed.
Its relatively low height helps it reach under furniture and low cabinetry where many robots miss dust. At least one real-home test highlights under-cabinet cleaning as a major day-to-day benefit.
Value is where enthusiasm cools: some reviewers liked the product overall but still questioned whether the premium price beats cheaper Dreame or rival alternatives.
The X60 is consistently described as able to vacuum or mop well, but some reviews say the result depends heavily on settings and home layout.
The water tanks are usable but not generous; one review estimated them as smaller than the previous model’s tanks.
The clean/dirty water tank setup is a key convenience feature; reviewers cite large tanks (around 4 L clean and ~3.5 L dirty in one real-home test) and automatic onboard refills. This enables multiple full clean-and-mop sessions before needing attention.
One review called the overall unit relatively heavy, which could matter for portability.
