Our verdict

Dreame's C1 is the more thorough of the two machines here and the quieter one, and it is built for a bigger pane: 2.5 by 4 m against the N1's 2 by 3. It plans a Z or N route at 14 cm/s, picks up where it left off after an interruption, comes back to where you put it on, and its corner brushes and elastic bumpers are the only real answer to the corners a square cloth misses. The sustained vacuum is a modest 3,300 Pa, peaking at 5,500 with compensation, and the tether is rated to 140 kg. What Dreame does not say matters too: nothing about holding on after a power cut, nothing about a fault self-check, no warranty term on the page. At €399 it is twice the N1's price, and the €549 Station kit adds a battery for 180 minutes off the mains.

Pros

  • Corner brushes and bumpers — the only corner claim in the category
  • Planned route that resumes after interruption and returns to start
  • Rated for panes up to 2.5 × 4 m, down to 30 × 40 cm
  • 63 dB — the quietest window robot here
  • 5.5 m tether rated to 140 kg; a battery station kit is available

Cons

  • No power-cut backup stated for the plain C1
  • 3,300 Pa sustained vacuum — the peak figure is with compensation
  • 80 ml tank with no area-per-fill figure, only a 60-minute cycle
  • €399 — twice the N1, before the €549 Station kit

Best for

  • Tall panes and stairwell glass where the route and the reach matter
  • Buyers who want the corners done and the noise kept down

Not recommended for

  • Exterior upstairs glass, until Dreame states what happens in a power cut
  • Buyers on a budget — the N1 does the basics for half
