Overview
- Dreame emerged as the global sales and revenue leader in Q1 2026, according to IDC data cited by multiple outlets, signaling a strategic market shift away from raw suction figures.
- Flagship models now compete on physical reach and wet-cleaning systems, with Dreame’s X60 offering 18 cm extendable wipers and MOVA’s V70 using 16 cm mops and 9 cm obstacle climbing to reach edges and under-cabinet gaps.
- New roller and steam designs aim to remove stuck-on stains: MOVA’s Z70 uses an 800 RPM rotating fresh-water roller with high-pressure nozzles, while Dreame’s Aqua20 adds a manufacturer steam function that claims large bacterial reductions but still needs independent real-world verification.
- All-in-one docking stations have become standard on premium models and typically include automatic detergent dosing, hot-water mop washing and hot-air drying, which reduces manual mop care but increases device complexity and cost.
- For consumers this means trade-offs: extreme Pascal numbers no longer tell the full story, shoppers must weigh reach, wet-cleaning tech, docking convenience and verified test results when choosing a model.
