Verdict

The Dreame H12 Pro Ultra is a high-performance cordless wet-dry vacuum and mop featuring a 300W motor that generates 16,000 Pa of maximum suction power. It operates with a dual-tank system comprising a 900 ml clean water tank and a 700 ml dirty water tank, utilizing a 4,000 mAh battery pack to deliver up to 35 minutes of runtime on a single 4-hour charge. Key pros include its double-edged cleaning brush for edge-to-edge corner reach, smart mess detection with automatic power adjustments, and an upgraded self-cleaning base station that washes the roller with 60°C hot water and dries it with hot air in just 30 minutes. However, notable cons include its relatively heavy 4.9 kg unbefunfilled weight which can cause fatigue during extended use, its inability to lay flat at a 180° angle under low furniture, and a lack of integrated LED headlights on the brush head.
