Rank #8 in Best Wet and Dry Vacuum 2026: 9 Ranked, £61 to £349
Dreame H12 Pro FlexReach Wet and Dry Vacuum
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Dreame H12 Pro FlexReach is a cordless wet and dry vacuum that also washes hard floors, and it sits at number 8 in our wet and dry vacuum guide at £279.00. Dreame claims 18,000Pa of suction, a 480RPM mopping brush, a 180° lie-flat body that fits gaps as narrow as 14cm, and 50 minutes of runtime from the battery. It also cleans itself with a 90°C hot wash and then dries the brush with hot air for five minutes.
The discrepancy on this listing is the ratings. Amazon shows 4.3 out of 5 from 26 ratings, but the star breakdown printed alongside adds up to 100: 69 five-star, 18 four-star, 5 two-star and 8 one-star, with no three-star votes at all. A 26-rating product and a 100-vote histogram cannot both describe the same buyers, and the shape of that histogram matters more than the 4.3 headline. Two smaller points are worth flagging: the suction figure is printed as '18,000Pa*' and nothing in the listing data we hold explains the asterisk, and the capacity field reads 500 millilitres — the same figure as the 500ml bottle of AWH10 cleaning solution Dreame says it ships with, so it is not clear the number describes a tank. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing, not from testing of our own.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“I live in a small 30m2 flat in the UK with one cat, and the H12 Pro FlexReach has honestly made cleaning so much easier. Cat hair used to collect everywhere, especially around the sofa, corners, and under the bed, but this cleaner handles it surprisingly well.What I really like is the FlexReach design — it can easily get under low furniture without me having to bend down awkwardly. The suction is strong enough for daily cat litter and fur, and it leaves the floor looking clean and fresh in one go.Another big plus is that it doesn't take up much storage space, which is important in a small apartment. Battery life is more than enough for my whole flat, and the self-cleaning feature saves a lot of hassle.Overall, it feels very premium and practical for pet owners living in smaller homes. Definitely worth it!”
Verified purchase“Good machine works well, has issues with a laking water tank, to be fair with Dreame team they sorted the problem so can't fault them for that.Cleans very well on tiled floors.”

How much suction does the Dreame H12 Pro FlexReach have?

Does it clean itself?
Yes. The listing describes a 90°C hot wash self-cleaning cycle, after which the brush is dried with hot air at 90°C for 5 minutes, plus a self-rinsing brush that is refreshed with clean water on every pass.
What comes with the Dreame H12 Pro FlexReach?
The listing names one item: the H12 Pro FlexReach, supplied with a 500ml bottle of AWH10 cleaning solution. The capacity field on the same page also reads 500 millilitres.
Can it reach under low furniture?
Dreame claims a 180° lie-flat reach that fits into gaps as narrow as 14cm, with the used water tank positioned to keep dirty water away from the motor.
