GoKawiilA capable robot vacuum and mop combo comes with a steep price tag to match and the Dreame X50 Ultra Complete is no exception. Dreame's website lists it at $1,700, while Wellbots lists it at $1,500. Amazon sits lower at $1,100 with no discount listed at the retailer. But here's what you should pay attention to -- Wellbots is currently selling it for $1,099 and with the code 25CNETX50 at checkout, that drops to $824, the best price you'll find across all three retailers by a significant margin. For context, Amazon and Dreame's own sites both land at $1,100 after any available discounts.
The Dreame X50 may be pricier than other robot vacuums, but it can handle tasks you'd otherwise have to do yourself. This robovac has auxiliary climbing arms that enable it to adjust to different elevations, allowing it to clean multiple floors and pieces of furniture without requiring someone to lift it. The Dreame X50 is the best choice for handling furniture and pet hair and is the recipient of CNET's Editors' Choice and Lab Awards. The bottom line? This deal makes now an excellent time to grab one.

The primary purpose of owning a robot vacuum is to eliminate the need for manual cleaning. But that was never the case at my house -- partly because of what I call my "Ikea chair challenge." I've seen many robovacs get stuck at the bottom of one of my chairs, which has an unusually shaped base. It's just one obstacle among many in my home, which is also filled with pet hair, paw prints and three teenage sons who leave things lying around everywhere.
After the Dreame X50 Ultra robot vacuum was named CNET's best for obstacles and pets, I got to see how it performed in real-world conditions at my place.
