Review Dreame T20: Handheld Cordless Vacuum Cleaner That Vacuum & Recognizes Carpets Well 2021.

A very, very popular vertical vacuum cleaner Dreame T20 came to our review. The main interest in it is due to the presence of a smart nozzle with a main brush, which, upon recognition of the carpet, automatically increases the suction power to the maximum. In addition, the vacuum cleaner boasts a removable battery, LED display and good suction power, reaching 25,000 Pa. And all this for no more than 300 dollars.

Equipment

Dreame T20 came in this branded box:

It compactly packed:

1. Main unit with installed battery.
2. Metal extension tube.
3. Basic floor nozzle.
4. Wall mount bracket with fasteners.
5. Motorized brush for cleaning mattresses and upholstered furniture.
6. Power adapter.
7. Flexible hose.
8. Flat brush with soft bristles.
9. Crevice nozzle.
10. Instruction manual, including translation into English.

The package is complete enough. All that is missing is a replaceable brush for cleaning on hard surfaces in the form of a fluffy roller, well, and a replaceable HEPA filter. But this is not critical.

Appearance

Let's take a look at how the Dreame T20 works. This is how it looks when fully assembled:

The first step is to show how the main unit looks like and how it works. On top of the case there is a Dream company logo. On the front part there is an informative LED display with a power mode switch and a continuous cleaning button. In this mode, you will not need to constantly hold your finger on the trigger while cleaning, this is a plus.

The battery is removable, the dust container is emptied by pressing a button, the debris falls out through the bottom. By pressing the button from the bottom, you can disconnect the flask with the filtration system from the main unit. Please note that an additional HEPA filter is installed in the main unit. It is allowed to rinse it with water, as indicated in the instructions. A pre-filter and the cyclone itself are installed in the flask, which is removed by turning and pulling towards itself.

On the container itself, we see a mark for the maximum level of garbage, upon reaching which it is necessary to empty the dust collector. By the way, the container holds up to 600 ml of dry waste.

Now let's look at the attachments included in the kit.

Let's start with the main brush. It is equipped with a mechanical retainer for attaching to the tube. In front we see transparent plastic, which allows you to visually assess the condition of the brush during operation. The design of the brush is implemented in such a way that wool and hair wind up on it less. In front of the suction opening, we see a strip of dense bristles. It allows for better collection of wool and hair from the floor. There is a latch on the side, which you can twist to remove the brush for cleaning. The structure is assembled in the reverse order.

As for the mattress brush, it also has a mechanical lock for attaching to a vacuum cleaner or tube. But the brush is less convenient to remove. To do this, you need to have a flat screwdriver or a coin on hand. The brush itself has an elongated dense bristle.

In such an assembly, using the Dreame T20, you can vacuum mattresses and upholstered furniture, for example, sofa upholstery:

And here is how the vacuum cleaner looks in assembly with the other two nozzles, which can also be used:

Next, consider the bracket for attaching the vacuum cleaner to the wall. On the side there is a connector for connecting the power adapter, and in front of the terminals.

Thus, you do not need to constantly manually charge the vacuum cleaner by connecting the cord directly to the main unit. It is enough to fix the bracket on the wall and connect the power supply to it. Then just hang the vacuum cleaner on the bracket and the charge is made automatically.

In general, the build quality and design of the Dreame T20 are pleasing. I especially liked the charging on the bracket and the removable battery.

Specifications

The main characteristics of the Dreame T20, declared by the manufacturer:

• Power consumption 450 watts.
• Suction power up to 150 AW (25000 Pa).
• Li-Ion 3000 mAh battery.
• The volume of the dust collector is 600 ml.
• Operating time up to 70 minutes in minimum power mode.
• Noise level up to 75 dB.

Additionally, we measured the weight of this vacuum cleaner. So the main unit weighs 1716 grams, the floor brush is 808 grams, and the extension tube is 298 grams.

Accordingly, in a complete assembly, the Dreame T20 weighs 2 kg 822 grams. The weight is slightly higher than that of analogues on the market. On average, these hand-held vacuum cleaners weigh about 2.5 kg. But, looking ahead, I would like to note that there is no discomfort when using the vacuum cleaner. The weight is distributed correctly, the hand does not get tired.

Functionality

Before testing, I would like to tell you about two useful features of the Dreame T20. The first is the automatic increase in power when the nozzle hits the carpet. In fact, a handy feature that allows you to rationally use the battery power, so as not to manually constantly switch from medium to maximum power. And the switch button will last longer.

The second is the automatic shutdown of the suction when the suction channel is blocked. For example, if the vacuum cleaner pinches a sock, curtain, or some other object. This is how it looks:

Working hours

Let's move on to the tests. First of all, let's check the battery life of the Dreame T20 in maximum power mode. So for 10 and a half minutes, the vacuum cleaner was able to work at maximum. Moreover, when the battery charge fell below 15%, the speed dropped slightly. The operating time is typical for cordless vacuum cleaners.

Suction power

Now let's check the depth of the slots from which the Dreame T20 can suck out debris. It efficiently sucks out debris from slots up to 8 mm deep and almost completely cleared a 10 mm slot. We can say that the vacuum cleaner is powerful. This test was successful!

Cleaning quality

Now let's check how well the Dreame T20 collects debris from different surfaces. On the laminate, we scattered small debris in the form of cat litter, cat food, wool, hair, as well as ground coffee, which imitates dust. Overall, the vacuum cleaner did the job.

The only thing is that he has problems with collecting large debris, the brush, when pressed tightly to the floor, categorically refuses to grab it. But if you raise it a little, the debris is captured by the brush.

But look at the state of the central brush after the test:

You can see that the hair is a little coiled, but their amount is very small, and it will be easy to clean the brush. For comparison, here is the state of the mattress head after collecting the same rubbish:

As you can see, her hair is wrapped around her quite tightly. So the main brush is really more intelligently designed without compromising on the quality of the garbage collection.

Well, the same rubbish was scattered on the carpet. And now the main nozzle cleans carpets very efficiently, directly combing out the carpet. This is definitely a big plus for the Dreame T20.

Noise level

It is also worth checking how much noise the cordless vacuum cleaner in question makes. In eco mode, the noise level is about 67-68 dB, at average power it reaches 71 dB, and at maximum power the peak value was 78 dB. Basically, the Dreame T20 is not too noisy. The noise level is quite standard.

Additional features

If we talk about the use of the rest of the attachments, then with their help you can vacuum the joints between the sections of upholstered furniture, shelves, window sills and even the interior of the car. Here already experiment with nozzles and connecting tubes.

Emptying the dust container

Well, in conclusion, I'll show you how the garbage container is emptied. By lightly pressing the button, all the debris falls down through the opened cover on the bottom. Thus, contact of hands with debris is completely excluded. This is a plus.

Summing up

The Dreame T20 has been reviewed and tested in detail. This cordless vacuum cleaner left a very good impression of itself. It really can be considered one of the best for cleaning carpets thanks to its smart, well-designed main brush, as well as good suction power.

Here are the advantages I would like to highlight after getting to know the vacuum cleaner in detail:

1. Bracket charging.
2. Removable battery.
3. Informative display on the case.
4. Automatically increase the power on the carpet.
5. Good waste collection quality, especially on carpets.
6. Good build quality.
7. Ergonomic design.
8. Optimal price.

As for the shortcomings, no special ones were identified. It is only possible to highlight such remarks as:

1. Not too long running time at maximum power.
2. Lack of replaceable nap roller for cleaning on hard surfaces.

But these are not such significant disadvantages when we compare them with advantages. In the end, we can say that the Dreame T20 is one of the best cordless vacuum cleaners of the Xiaomi family and if you choose an upright carpet cleaner, this model will be very interesting to buy.
