OEM Quality at a fraction of the cost
Color: L40 Ultra Accessories, Color: L40 Ultra Accessories
I have a Dreame x50(Main floor)and a Dreame x40(Top Floor), for over a year now. I use them each 3x/week in mainly mopping downstairs(vacuuming area rugs & floor) and mainly vacuuming upstairs(carpet) and some mopping(2 bathrooms and one bedroom); so I know a little bit about accessories and what they can and cannot do.
Even though these are for the Dreame x40, some of the parts fit both the x40 & x50 perfectly. As the 1st pic shows, the mop pads, corner brush, and dust bags fit perfectly on both. However the main brush, and filter insert are different. But these all fit in the x40. The only slight problem, as I pointed out in other reviews, these new filter cartridges are dark gray, not white, so can’t see the dirt as much, when cleaning them. They easily slip in and feel sturdy as the OEM. The product on left of each pic is the OEM, right is this product. The quality and design is the same as the OEM, and far less expensive. I recommend these if you own either machine.

Asurion Plan is a Must
This protection plan is definitely worth it. I returned my car vacuum after having it one year because it was not holding a charge. I received a email with a gift card the following day. So I purchased another one. And I also purchased the product protection plan.

Easy to work with and processed claim very efficiently
I have purchased Asurion Insurance on many of my Amazon purchases. The insurance is usually a reasonable cost that I feel is worth the purchase in case of product malfunction. This was the first time I had to file a claim on a product. I was extremely pleased with how quickly my claim was addressed in this matter and it just reinforces my decision to purchase this insurance on future products.
