Start up
As is usual in this type of device, the Dreame H12 Pro comes partially charged, but It is advisable to fully charge the battery before putting it to work for the first time..
Once the product has been unpacked and the different elements of the transport protections have been released, We place the base near a power outlet and connect it.
We put the storage boxes, roller and reserve filter in their corresponding places, install the handle on the body of the device, and put it on the base so that it starts loading (we will see how the percentage increases until it reaches 100%).
The time for a full charge is about 3 hours, and its 6-cell, 4.000 mAh lithium battery gives the Dreame H12 Pro a autonomy of up to 35 minutes, similar to that of other similar devices.
Operation of the Dreame H12 Pro
The protagonist of this analysis It is a liquid and solid vacuum cleaner, a device that offers great versatility when it comes to cleaning the home effectively and completely., especially when there are pets and/or small children.
The Dreame H12 Pro can collect solid, liquid and semi-liquid dirt, being able to solve various "disasters" that occur in daily life, such as coffee and juice stains, crumbs, porridge, sauces, fruit remains, fingerprints or even, for example, a raw egg.
As in other devices of this type, the operation of the Dreame H12 Pro is based on a double tank system, in this case with a large capacity: 900 milliliters for clean water and 700 for dirty water (as a comparison, the tanks of the well-known Tineco Floor One S3 They have 600 and 500 milliliters, respectively).
This system allows you to effectively collect all types of dirt or liquids (for example, water or milk that have been spilled on the floor), with better results than a manual mop., since this device always uses clean water to scrub, transferring the dirty water to the corresponding container, while when we do it manually, the water we use becomes dirty.
Also, in this case The brand includes a cleaning solution that is diluted in water to provide a more effective and fresh result., as well as a lightly perfumed aroma.
The soft roller is suitable for all types of hard floors, from parquet and flooring (varnished and sealed) to tile, porcelain, synthetic or vinyl floors.
Its brushless motor has a power of 300 watts (the same as the Dreame M12) and provides a good absorption capacity, more than enough for the type of tasks that we are going to perform with a device of this type.
Operating modes
The Dreame H12 Pro has three operating modes:
The LED screen shows, in addition to the percentage of remaining autonomy, what the situation is at each moment, through a simple traffic light color system:
Brush
The soft brush picks up dirt and liquids from the floor, which are then sucked into the dirty water tank.; In addition, two aspects have been improved to achieve better results:
Fits around edges and corners
automatic cleaning
As is usual in this type of device, the Dreame H12 Pro includes a feature that provides greater comfort, the automatic roller and duct cleaning.
To do this, place the vacuum cleaner on the base, with clean water in the corresponding tank, and the button on the top of the handle is pressed, starting the self-cleaning cycle.
The roller will begin to rotate while clean water is used to remove dirt; at the end of the process, We will simply have to empty the dirty water tank and rinse it.
Hot air drying
Una special feature that includes the Dreame H12 Pro (and that until now we had only seen in another model, the Roborock Dyad Pro), is automatic drying with hot air.
After finishing washing, The roller receives hot air to dry it completely, preventing the proliferation of mold, bacteria and other germs, as well as unpleasant odors.
Ergonomics and ease of use
The Dreame H12 Pro offers a great convenience when solving various problems at home in a single pass, and it also cleans and dries automatically.
Its height is about 110 centimeters, providing a comfortable grip thanks to its ergonomic handle, and although it is not a light device, since it weighs 4,9 kilograms, movement is easy, since, as we have previously pointed out, the movement of the roller makes it easier to move.
The device also offers good flexibility, and The design of its roller is adjusted to the maximum to perfectly clean edges and corners.
Automatic power also provides a greater degree of comfort in daily cleaning, since We do not have to worry about adjusting the suction depending on the degree of dirt, but the vacuum cleaner itself takes care of it.
The information screen offers the most relevant information to the user in a visual and practical way, indicating the percentage of remaining autonomy, the working mode and the degree of dirt existing, with the aforementioned color code.
In addition, It has voice prompts that inform us of the status of the machine or tell us to perform some actions., such as the mode selected, that the used water tank is full, or that drying has finished.
To change the language of voice notifications, press and hold a button on the back for 3 seconds; Thus, you access the language configuration, and then, we will make short presses until we reach the desired language; To finish, press again for 3 seconds to save the changes.

Opinions about the Dreame H12 Pro
I bought this vacuum cleaner-scrubber with some doubts, but once I had it in my possession, I only regret that it took me so long to decide. Everything came well packaged and it is very easy to assemble. The battery came charged at 50%, so I charged it to have 100% before putting it to work. To test it, I used it on a floor previously scrubbed in the traditional way, and it turned out that the water that it collected in the corresponding tank came out black, so I can say that it cleans great.. Maneuverability is excellent, as the rotating roller makes it easy to move forward. One thing that made me lean towards the Dreame H12 Pro over other models was the issue of drying the roller, it is not fast, but then you have a surprisingly clean and completely dry roller.
More comfort
This product is TOP, it cleans perfectly without leaving traces and makes little noise. The suction function for mopping is great. It is handled without difficulty. The cleaning function and especially the drying function are great, so it stays clean and does not smell.
I recently purchased the Dreame H12 Pro and am impressed. It has an edge-to-edge brush that reaches even the toughest areas, and the hot air feature helps prevent mold and mildew. The 4.000 mAh battery lasts more than half an hour, and together with its large water tank, it allows you to scrub large surfaces without having to recharge. The product is made with good materials, so it looks durable. I highly recommend it.
Self-cleaning button
The best scrubber on the market. I have tried other well-known brands, but this one surpasses them all. It sucks up the dirt well and goes inside, it doesn't stay on the roller. Drying is fabulous, as it prevents odors. The tanks are very large and the battery lasts a long time. The dirt detection works very well, and the self-cleaning of the device too.
Why buy a Dreame H12 Pro
