Dreame R20 Cordless Vacuum

Verdict

The Dreame R20 Cordless Vacuum delivers excellent hard-floor and large-debris performance, strong suction, and very competitive runtimes, all backed by a generous toolkit and handy flexi adapter. Carpet cleaning is good but not class-leading, yet its easy maintenance, simple charging dock, and standout value make it a top choice for most homes—especially those without wall-to-wall thick carpeting.

Pros

  • Hard Floor — Fine Dust Pickup 2 reviews 5.0
    With the soft roller, it captures nearly all fine dust on hard floors in testing, keeping pickup consistent and on par with Dyson-level performance.
  • Controls & UI 1 review 5.0
  • Ease of use 1 review 5.0
    Easy drop-in docking and contact charging, combined with tools like the flexi adapter, make day-to-day cleaning straightforward even in tricky areas.
  • Hard Floor — Large Debris Intake 1 review 5.0
    The wide multi-surface brush and front opening let it glide smoothly over large debris like coffee beans without pushing pieces around.
  • Maintenance requirements 1 review 5.0
    Most components detach without tools, so clearing trapped hair and fine dust is quick and simpler than on Dyson models that require partial disassembly.
  • Runtime (Measured, Boost/Turbo) 1 review 5.0
    Boost mode lasts about 14–15 minutes in testing, longer than comparable Dyson sticks and giving plenty of time for intensive cleaning bursts.
  • Under-Furniture Pickup 1 review 5.0
    The included flexi adapter lets the wand bend to reach under low beds, sofas, and other furniture without awkward contortions.

  • Battery & Charging 2 reviews 4.8
  • Suction & Airflow 2 reviews 4.8
  • Headlight & LED lights 2 reviews 4.5
  • Price & Value 2 reviews 4.5
  • Runtime (Measured, Default) 1 review 4.5
    Default mode runtime lands just under an hour at around 57 minutes per charge, which is ample for most apartments and smaller homes.
  • Aesthetic design & finish 1 review 4.0
  • Build quality & durability 1 review 4.0
    Build feels solid and far better than low-end sticks, though the fit and finish of attachments is slightly less refined than Dyson’s.
  • Carpet — Medium-Pile Pickup 1 review 3.5
    On carpets it outperforms budget sticks and lifts embedded dust well, though Dyson’s V12 still reaches slightly deeper into the pile.
