Until now, robot vacuums have, strictly speaking, been "semi-automatic." You still had to change the water in the tank, cut the hair tangled in the brushes, and clean out the dustbin. But the 2026 flagship "Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete" is different. The "Complete" in its name doesn't just refer to the abundance of accessories. It means that humans are "completely freed" from the cleaning process itself.
If you connect the included (or optional) "Water Supply and Drainage Module" to your home's plumbing, both the refilling of clean water and the draining of dirty water become fully automatic. The base station is no longer a charger — it's a plant that doubles as a "water treatment facility" and a "waste processing facility." All you need to do is replace the detergent cartridge once every few months and toss out the antibacterial dust bag. The rest of the time, you're free to forget the vacuum even exists.

The eternal challenges of any robot vacuum: "the four corners of a room" and "along the walls." A round chassis physically can't reach those sacred zones — but Dreame has cracked them with a remarkable solution. It's the "Dual Flex Arm," from which both the mop and the side brush extend outward.
When it detects a wall, the arm reaches out as if alive, sweeping out dust from beneath furniture and from the corners of the room. Furthermore, the X60 generation introduces features like lifting the brushes when crossing thresholds, and even detaching the mop on carpet and leaving it at the station. Rather than "giving up because it can't reach," it "transforms so that it can reach." This almost obsessive cleaning capability surpasses what human hands can do.

For households with pets or long-haired family members, "hair tangling around the main brush" is a constant headache. To solve this, the X60 comes standard (or upgraded) with the "TriCut Brush," which has a cutter built directly into the brush itself.
As it vacuums, it snips up any hair that's about to tangle and sucks it right in. No more wrestling the brush with a pair of scissors at maintenance time. Combined with industry-leading suction (over 20,000Pa) that borders on violent, it swallows up everything — pet hair buried deep in the carpet, fine particles of dust — like a black hole.

When the cleaning is finished and the unit returns to its station, it's time for the "laundry" cycle. The water that washes the mop isn't at room temperature. It's washed with "boiling-hot water" reaching nearly 80°C at peak. This dissolves grease and crusted-on sauce stains, and kills off the bacteria that cause that unpleasant musty-damp odor.
Once washed, it's dried bone-dry with warm air. The mop is reset to a fresh, fluffy, like-new state, ready for its next deployment. Rather than smearing dirt around the floor with a grimy rag, it always wipes with a clean cloth. This high standard of hygiene is the single biggest reason to opt for a high-end model.
| Conclusion: For 300,000 Yen, You're Not Buying a "Vacuum Cleaner"

The price for the "Complete" model is around 300,000 yen (estimated). As a vacuum cleaner, it may seem like an outrageous price tag. But think of this not as an appliance, but as "the contract fee for hiring a live-in housekeeper."
Daily floor mopping, vacuuming, and the maintenance of the vacuum itself — what if you could redirect the hundreds of hours a year you spend on these tasks toward whatever you love doing? The Dreame X60 Max Ultra is an investment opportunity for buying time with money. If you're someone who "can't even stand the sight of dust on the floor," then you're ready to welcome this ultimate butler into your home.
