DREAME H12 PRO Vacuum Mop
2 sources$219.99as of Oct 11

The Dreame H12 Pro is a premium wet and dry vacuum for hard floors, with a 700 ml dirty water tank, and self-cleaning that finishes with hot air drying. Trusted Reviews found it effective on tough stains and easy to use, but reported the automatic dirt sensor barely responds. Battery life runs 35 minutes, and at 72-73 dB it's quieter than most models. Anyone who wants one high-performance cleaner will be satisfied; those counting on intuitive automatic settings won't.

Strengths
  • — Effective cleaning of tough stains including sauce and coffee marks
  • — Self-cleaning function with hot air drying of the roller
  • — Large dirty water tank capacity of 700 ml (23.6 oz.)
Watch-outs
  • — Confusing mode selection with unclear ultramode function
  • — Dirt sensor not very sensitive in adjusting suction power
NARWAL S20 Pro
Ranked #4 in Best Wet Dry Vacuum Mops
NARWAL S20 Pro
1 source$324as of Oct 17

The NARWAL S20 Pro is a cordless, self-propelled vacuum mop for hard floors, weighing 9.41 lb with a 0.79-litre clean-water tank and a self-cleaning, hot-air-drying dock. Vacuum Wars measured top-tier mopping, 151 points in its stain test and a combined score of 175 that tied for first, while noting low usable suction and a smaller-than-average tank. Business Insider found it picked up everything from flour to syrup in a single forward pass, cleaned flush to walls and left the brush roll dry after its self-clean cycle, but did a poor job when pulled backwards. It suits buyers who want mopping results close to flagship machines in a lighter package; anyone who cleans with long back-and-forth strokes or has rugs should look elsewhere.

Strengths
  • — Tied first in Vacuum Wars' combined mopping test with 175 points, against a 138 average
  • — Cleans flush to walls, with no dry gap left at the edge in Business Insider's test
  • — Self-cleaning and hot-air drying left the brush roll fully dry
Watch-outs
  • — Cleans poorly in reverse; coffee and cereal caught behind the wheels
  • — Usable suction measured 0.55 kPa, well below the 1 kPa category average
  • — No LED headlight on the floor head to show up debris in dim areas

How they stack up

DREAME H12 PRO Vacuum Mop

The DREAME H12 PRO Vacuum Mop has a 700 ml dirty water tank and a 900 ml clean water tank, against 400 ml and 600 ml on the DREAME G10 Pro Wet Dry Vacuum Mop, and its 18,000Pa suction is above the G10 Pro's 16,000 Pa. Its self-cleaning ends with hot air drying of the roller. How-To Geek lists it at 400W against 210 W for the Bissell CrossWave Edge, but its dirt sensor is not very sensitive.

NARWAL S20 Pro

Listed at $323.99, the S20 Pro is a lighter, lower-priced alternative to the Bissell CrossWave Edge, the DREAME H12 PRO and the Tineco Floor ONE i5 Stretch, weighing 9.41 lb with a self-propelled head. Its measured strengths are mopping and edge cleaning; buyers who clean in long back-and-forth strokes should weigh its weak reverse pickup.
