500: maintenance mode

Greetings from the Engine Room!

Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.

Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet. But what we do know is:

The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.

What now?

Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no server problems there – promised.

Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧

Dreame X50 Ultra Review: Short of Perfection

The X50 Ultra from Dreame is set to replace its predecessor, the X40 Ultra, as the best robot vacuum cleaner with a mopping function. Its suction power has almost doubled and, on top of that, it lowers its navigation tower whenever required to clean those hard-to-reach places under some furniture. Also brand new are two additional wheels that this robovac raises to climb obstacles of up to 6 cm in height. Will it also ascend to the throne as the best robot vacuum cleaner with a mopping function? Find out here in this detailed Dreame X50 Ultra review.
