We have previously talked about Dreame vacuum cleaners. Back then I had some questions for him, but overall I was pleased with him. And now the company has released a new product that is arousing a lot of interest. When they brought it to the editorial office, I immediately volunteered to look into it and write a review. This is what I've been doing for the last couple of weeks. Now I have something to tell about it, taking into account all its pros and cons. In short, it has powerful pull, a solid look, and a handle that still takes some getting used to. And yes, the Dreame H12S is a washable vacuum cleaner that requires almost no maintenance. Now let's talk about it in more detail and consider its capabilities in more detail.
This vacuum can stand on the floor by itself, but has a stand for cleaning. It will also charge the battery.

Review of the Dreame H12S vertical vacuum cleaner
Let's start with the appearance. The model really looks good, unusual and even premium. The body is made of plastic, and thanks to the low center of gravity it feels very light. All main elements, including tanks, engine and batteries are located low to the ground and the load on the hand is minimal. Being 185 centimeters tall, I would have liked to have literally a slightly longer handle, but overall I used it comfortably.
The body is slightly tilted forward for greater stability. To start using it, you need to hold the lower part with your foot and tilt the handle towards you — the mechanism is unlocked.
To care for the vacuum cleaner, the kit includes a replacement roller, a spare filter and a cleaning brush. The box also included a large bottle of floor detergent and a charging/cleaning station, on which the vacuum cleaner is placed between cleanings. The delivery package can be called truly rich. Overall it is basic, but everything you need is there.

Don’t forget about our Zen, where there is a lot of interesting and educational things!< /p>
A vacuum cleaner with high suction power
The brushed electric motor, spinning up to maximum speed during operation, does not exceed a noise level of 76 dB. This creates a suction force of up to 16,000 Pa. And all this flow is directed into a tank with a volume of 0.7 liters. The clean water tank has a volume of 0.9 liters.
To remove the tank, you just need to press the lever and pull it towards you.
All the tanks are removed quite easily and, what is nice, understandable. The buttons that you need to press are immediately obvious, and it is almost impossible to make a mistake. Although, perhaps, I am biased and I just have a lot of experience with such equipment, so I did not have any problems.
The turbo brush, which is included in the kit and is the main one for the vacuum cleaner, is a soft roller that will not scratch the floor. It rotates at an optimal speed, thanks to which the battery is not consumed as much and the noise level is reduced. But this speed is enough to collect all the garbage, be it wool, loose substances or scraps of packaging.
The brush is easily removed, and the kit includes a spare one.
To remove the brush, just press this button and you don’t need to disassemble anything else.
A robot vacuum cleaner should be exactly like this. Why Dreame Bot L10S Ultra is so good.
Washing vacuum cleaner with a turbo brush
Since the brush still rotates quite quickly, there is a risk of scattering debris. This happens with some models when we vacuum, and dirt from a new area gets into the place where you have already walked. The Dreame H12S effectively combats this with a rubber seal on the bottom and a visor on top. And due to the fact that the roller is located close to the edge of the nozzle, when passing along the wall, a strip no more than 6 mm wide will remain untreated. This is very little compared to other models.
On one side there is a drive, and on the other the brush reaches the very edge of the nozzle.
This vacuum cleaner can be called smart, because it not only has a built-in voice assistant that will tell you everything you need to know while cleaning, but alsocan automatically detect the type of surfaceto change the suction power and the rotation speed of the brush. And he can also change the suction power depending on the level of dirt. If there is a lot of sand or other particles on the surface, the power will automatically increase to maximum for even faster and more efficient cleaning.
The handle is unusual, but with a pleasant grip thanks to the rubberized coating
As befits a premium vacuum cleaner, Dreame H12S effectively combats the return of particles into the surrounding air. For this purpose, it received a high-quality filter that can be replaced when the time comes. There is a spare one in the kit. This is especially important during the flowering period. And wet cleaning will only enhance the cleaning effect.
The filter is small but effective.

Vacuum cleaner with self-cleaning
When cleaning is complete, you can place the vacuum cleaner on the base to charge. At this point he will be able to clean his own brush. Itwill not only be washed, but also dried with hot air, which will allow it to dry quickly and prevent the development of bacteria, mold and unpleasant odors.
To prevent hair, threads and wool from getting wrapped around the roller, there is such a comb.
In addition to dry garbage, wet dirt can also be removed. For example, if you spilled milk, tea or other drinks. Even if it is something sweet and sticky, the Dreame H12S washing vacuum cleaner will cope with this task. You will be especially impressed by the automatic suction power increase function that I mentioned above. This was previously only available in flagship models or robot vacuum cleaners.
I don’t know about you, but after breakfast my kitchen resembles a Viking canteen, where at least 20 people ate. I like to do things quickly and often something falls or spills, be it bread crumbs, coffee, salt, sugar or the like. Now I clean it all up faster than before. Although I still won’t refuse a robot vacuum cleaner. It is good for daily cleaning, and it is easier to deal with one-time heavy dirt using a vertical vacuum cleaner.
It will take no more than 15 seconds to add water.
Predictably, in «Turbo» Battery life is greatly reduced, but should only be used in extreme cases. In normal life, the normal operating mode is sufficient for simple cleaning. For example, I turned on the turbo only to remove sand that fell off my shoes in the hallway after the rain. It could have been removed in normal mode, but it was faster.

How long does a vertical vacuum cleaner last on one charge
Since we’re talking about battery life, the stated battery life is up to 35 minutes. The manufacturer says that this is enough for 200 square meters of area. In ordinary life, a three-room apartment can be completely vacuumed in about 20 minutes. That is, you should still have some stock left. I wouldn't count on it too much, especially if you turn on the Turbo mode from time to time. If you use only it, the vacuum cleaner will last a maximum of 8-9 minutes.
All components, including the battery, are located in the case
The capacity of the built-in battery is 4000 mAhand takes approximately 4 hours to fully charge. This is quite a lot, but remember how long ago you vacuumed for half an hour, and then you had to immediately carry out another similar cleaning. If this is your usual scenario, then such devices are simply not for you, and you need a classic, mains-powered model.
What is a vertical vacuum cleaner for?
From the above we can conclude that the Dreame H12S is suitable not only for one-time cleaning of dirt instead of a broom and mop, but also for serious cleaning of the entire apartment. It is worth mentioning separately as a means to combat sticky dirt and old stains on the floor. You don't have to clean them with a rag and wash it later. The vacuum cleaner will do everything itself.
For daily cleaning of the apartment, it is better to use a robot, and buy a vertical vacuum cleaner specifically for serious pollution or cleaning an area where you need to put things in order quickly, and not wait for the robot vacuum cleaner to do its job.
These rollers are better than bristled brushes. They clean better and don’t scratch the floor.
All control buttons are located on the handle for easy access. And the voice assistant volume button is located on the back of the case, but you won't use it often.

There is even a display to show operating mode, filter information and charge level. It is located on the top of the case and has large numbers that are clearly visible.
The display is large and bright even in good lighting.
It's nice that the price of the Dreame H12S is not prohibitive – about 37,000 rubles. Some will disagree with this. But this is not a question of absolute numbers, but of relative ones. For this money, you will get many advanced features and high power. Globally, it has everything that, for example, the top Dyson has, with the exception of a scattering of attachments for all occasions. But are they worth 60-70 thousand rubles? It's up to you to decide!
For its price niche, the Dreame H12S is a good offer. And you can buy it both on the official website of the brand and on marketplaces. It is even available in some retail stores. So if you are interested in it, but it seems expensive, just keep an eye on the sellers' discounts. The vacuum cleaner itself will definitely not disappoint you.
