DREAME Z30 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner
Verdict
The Dreame Z30 boasts huge suction specs, a bright LED floorhead, and plenty of tools, but its heavy feel, plasticky build, and only middling real-world floor performance keep it behind Dyson and Shark. It is best for shoppers attracted to its big numbers and accessories who are willing to accept less refined handling and value.
