Spring cleaning isn’t just for your home, but your outdoor area, too. And while you can have your robovac clean the floors, you’ll want the new Dreame Z1 Pro to clean up your pool.
First unveiled at CES 2025, the Dreame Z1 Pro was recognized by Frost & Sullivan as the world’s first cordless robotic pool cleaner with a poolside-operatable remote controller and also the world’s first robotic pool cleaner with a triple surround fusion perception system.
The Dreame Z1 series of robotic pool cleaners could make your life so much easier, saving countless hours of your time. Let’s take a deeper look.
Cordlessly clean your pool
One of the best things about the Dreame Z1 Pro is its cordless design, which means you won’t need to worry about it getting tangled up, its movement being restricted, or having to keep it plugged in via long extension cables. The Z1 Pro can go about its job, navigating the pool freely, and reaching all the nooks and crannies that need cleaning.
The new pool cleaner features PoolSense technology. This allows it to map out your pool, and then analyze the information and use it to adapt its cleaning routine to your pool’s shape. It will intelligently create cleaning patterns that guarantee maximize coverage.
The pool cleaner will smartly navigate your pool, noting its surroundings and splitting the area into specific zones. For floor cleaning, the Z1 Pro will take an S-shaped route, while wall cleaning tasks will adopt an N-shaped route. All these details make this pool-cleaning robot a fantastic helper that will successfully tackle even the most complex pools.
Dreame Z1 Pro comes with a handheld remote that uses LiFi technology to maintain a connection with the pool cleaner even while it’s underwater. This will make assigning tasks that much easier, such as sending the Z1 Pro to specific areas for spot cleaning, and for pausing and resuming tasks, or parking the robot poolside.
Even better, you can even use the remote to direct the robot to the areas you want cleaned, steering the cleaner manually. The LiFi control system will work regardless of whether you have a freshwater or saltwater pool.
This remote is the main difference between the Dreame Z1 Pro and its cheaper sibling, the Dreame Z1. The Z1 may be more appropriate for smaller pools as it covers a smaller area than the Pro (about 200 square feet less).
Tackle pool cleaning from all sides
The Dreame Z1 Pro won’t just skim the top of the water and pick up leaves and twigs and whatever else the wind blew into the pool. This model will actually sink down to the bottom, perfectly clean the area, and then handle the walls of the pool as well, delivering a thorough and efficient pool cleaning.
The pool cleaning robot uses dual brushless motors that deliver an impressive 8,000 GPH suction power, which means its ability to cling to the pool walls or stay tight to the pool floor until the job is done will not be an issue.
Furthermore, the suction power ensures that the Z1 Pro will do a thorough job of collecting dirt, grime, algae, gravel, sand, leaves, hair, and even twigs. Your pool will be spotless once the Z1 Pro completes its job.
The horizontal waterline cleaning is impressive, and Dreame’s tests revealed it has 50% improved efficiency compared to other robotic pool cleaners that perform this task.
Being this thorough doesn’t mean cleaning takes longer: this cord-free pool cleaner can handle 2,160 square feet in about four hours. The exact cleaning time will be affected by variables including the pool’s size and shape, and how long it’s been since it was last cleaned.
The robot’s battery will need recharging after the four hours are up. A full recharge takes around six hours.
Much like home floor cleaning robovacs, pool cleaning robots have to be smart. The Z1 Pro will successfully avoid any obstacles on the floor of your pool. Not only can it detect pool drains, for instance, but it can also navigate around them so it doesn’t get stuck.
Another thing that’s super smart about the Dreame Z1 Pro is that if it runs out of battery or the filter basket is filled, the Z1 Pro will automatically dock itself at the edge of the pool to allow for easy collection and disposal. Once it’s recharged or you’ve emptied the basket, the robot returns to its job and picks up where it left off.
The Dreame Z1 Pro has a companion app you can use to designate specific docking locations around your pool. When the robot is out of the water and waiting for you, it will even send you a notification so you know you have to attend to it. This will make it so much easier for you because you won’t have to constantly monitor your pool to see if the robot needs attention.
That same app will also come in handy for customizing your robot’s cleaning jobs. You can fiddle with the settings, choose between multiple suction power settings for waterline and floor cleaning, and adjust cleaning times.
Universal pool cleaner
The beauty of the Dreame Z1 Pro is that it will work with just about any type of pool, be it above-ground or in-ground. We already established that it doesn’t matter what shape the pool has, but you should also know that it doesn’t matter if it’s made out of concrete or fiberglass, if it has mosaic tiles, or if it’s covered in vinyl. It will handle everything with the same efficiency.
Spring cleaning for your pool
This spring, it’s time to do something nice for your pool: buy the Dreame Z1 Pro. The pool cleaning robot costs $1,599, but you can get it for $320 off right now at Dreame. That’s a great price for a device that will handle your pool cleaning day in and day out, with you barely lifting a finger.
