4.2
(12)

Bottom Line

Choose the UWANT D100 if you want an affordable cordless wet/dry cleaner for hard floors that hugs baseboards and simplifies end-of-job cleanup. Skip if you need long runtime with quick recharging, or you’re sensitive to beeps during the drying cycle.

Best for

Hard-floor homes (tile, vinyl, sealed wood) that want a one-pass vacuum+mop for daily spills, pet hair, and under-furniture reach—especially if automatic roller rinsing + heated drying matters more than marathon runtime.

Not for

Homes with lots of carpet/high‑pile rugs, large spaces that need long cordless sessions, or anyone who’s sensitive to beeps/voice prompts (and wants a faster recharge or easier-to-open tanks).

Verdict

The D100 is a thoughtfully designed wet/dry floor washer that balances strong pickup with practical convenience features. Reviews consistently praise its lay-flat reach for low furniture, edge-to-edge cleaning, and an automated rinse plus warm-air drying routine that helps keep the roller from smelling between uses. The push-in dock and lightweight feel make it easy to grab for everyday kitchen and entryway messes, including liquids and mixed debris. Tradeoffs: real-world runtime is only moderate and several testers report long recharge times, and the drying process can be noisy/annoying (beeps). It’s primarily for hard floors; rugs are only a light-duty use case. reviews

Pros

  • Innovation compared to competitors 4.6 3 reviews 4.6
    Noted innovations versus peers include push-in docking, a fully washable/waterproof motor/chassis, electrolyzed-water cleaning claims, a combined dual-compartment tank, and an adjustable/swiveling handle.
  • Low-profile design 4.6 5 reviews 4.6
    The ultra-thin/flat form factor (often cited around 13.5 cm) is a standout design point and is frequently compared favorably to bulkier competitors.
  • Weight 4.6 6 reviews 4.6
    Across reviews the D100 is repeatedly called lightweight and easy to lift/steer, with reported weights around ~4.1–4.3 kg.
  • Under-Furniture Pickup 4.6 11 reviews 4.6
    Lay-flat/180° cleaning is one of the most praised features, letting the head reach under tables, chairs, and some low furniture. Extremely low clearances can still be limiting, but it’s more capable than many alternatives.
  • Price & Value 4.6 5 reviews 4.6
    Value is the dominant theme: many call it the best value-for-money wet/dry vacuum in its segment, often citing prices around ~$289–$320 (or sales near ~$299) while offering features found on pricier competitors.
  • Cordless convenience 4.5 8 reviews 4.5
    Cordless operation is a consistent quality-of-life win—no dragging a cord while mopping. The push-in dock/parking style also supports quick grab-and-go use.
  • Overall opinion 4.5 12 reviews 4.5
    Overall sentiment is strongly positive: most reviewers recommend it, especially for hard-floor homes wanting a one-pass vacuum+mop workflow and minimal roller-touching cleanup.
  • Pet-Ready Features 4.5 4 reviews 4.5
    Pet households specifically like the combination of strong hair pickup, anti-tangle brush design, and odor mitigation (deodorizer + heated drying). Several reviewers explicitly recommend it for homes with shedding pets.
  • Odor control 4.5 9 reviews 4.5
    Odor prevention is repeatedly credited to the deodorizing rod plus heated drying; one reviewer left dirty water in the tank for ~24 hours and reported no bad smell. Heated drying is also cited as reducing mildew/mold risk.
  • Comparative performance 4.5 3 reviews 4.5
    In comparisons, the D100 is framed as a value leader rather than the absolute “best regardless of price.” Reviewers often contrast it with premium brands, noting it offers many flagship-style features for less money.
  • Edge & Baseboard Cleaning (Hard Floors) 4.4 5 reviews 4.4
    Edge cleaning is a major strength: multiple reviewers call it edge-to-edge/dual-edge and show it cleaning close to baseboards. One measured the real gap at ~5–6 mm from the wall (still better than many, but not as tight as some marketing claims).
  • Self-propel feature 4.4 5 reviews 4.4
    Several reviewers describe it as self-propelled or at least strongly assisted by brush traction, which reduces pushing effort. A minority find that same pull can feel a bit too forceful over long cleans.
  • Fresh Liquid Pickup Speed 4.4 5 reviews 4.4
    Fresh spills (water, coffee, milk) are often shown being removed in one or two passes in demos/tests, with the unit automatically increasing effort in Smart mode on wetter areas.
  • Suction & Airflow 4.4 8 reviews 4.4
    Pickup power is repeatedly described as strong, especially for a budget wet/dry unit. Reviews show it handling liquids and common household debris well, though very light debris can sometimes get pushed ahead before being captured.
  • Self-cleaning cycle 4.3 10 reviews 4.3
    The rinse + hot/warm-air dry routine is a headline feature and widely praised for reducing manual roller washing. Reported drying is often ~1 hour at ~60°C, leaving the roller mostly dry (sometimes not 100%). A major complaint is persistent beeping during the drying phase in at least one long-term test.
  • Maneuverability & Handling 4.3 8 reviews 4.3
    Handling is generally described as smooth and nimble, helped by the light weight and a flexible/swiveling handle. One reviewer notes the forward “thrust” can feel tiring over long sessions and that backward passes can smear more than some competitors.
  • Mopping performance 4.3 8 reviews 4.3
    Mopping results are consistently positive for everyday grime, muddy footprints, and mixed wet messes. Tough, dried-on spills can take multiple passes, but most reviewers still report a clean finish.
  • Hair Pickup — Hard Floors 4.3 4 reviews 4.3
    Pet hair pickup on hard floors is frequently praised (dog/cat homes). Hair is often visible in the tank/filter after a pass, suggesting strong real-world performance.
  • Assembly and Setup 4.3 3 reviews 4.3
    Setup is repeatedly described as quick and tool-free: attach the handle, assemble the two-piece base, plug in, and charge. Several note the battery often arrives partially charged.
  • Emptying & Mess Control 4.3 3 reviews 4.3
    Emptying is usually straightforward and some reviews highlight solid/liquid separation that makes disposal cleaner (dump solids first, then pour liquid). The main mess risk comes from soggy mixed debris when doing wet + dry together.
  • Suitability for small spaces 4.3 3 reviews 4.3
    Its compact body, flexibility, and lay-flat reach make it easy to store and to use in tighter rooms (kitchens, entryways, around furniture legs).
  • Accessories & Tools 4.3 8 reviews 4.3
    Most reviewers highlight a generous box for the price: docking base, at least one spare roller, spare filter(s) (often HEPA), a cleaning brush/tool, and a bottle of cleaning fluid/solution.
  • Aesthetic design & finish 4.3 2 reviews 4.3
    Multiple reviews call the D100 sleek/modern and compact-looking. The styling is generally viewed as functional and “nice looking,” rather than premium-luxury.
  • Automatic standby switch 4.3 1 review 4.3
    One reviewer notes it won’t run unless the head is lowered into the cleaning position, which helps prevent accidental spinning while upright.
  • Solution / Liquid system 4.3 1 review 4.3
    Reviewers like the adjustable water-output options and the ability to use cleaning solution; some highlight electrolyzed-water operation as a differentiator. A common request is easier filling, and there’s no consistent mention of automatic solution dosing.
  • Ease of use 4.3 9 reviews 4.3
    Day-to-day use is mostly praised (roll off the dock, press power, clean). Pain points include a tight, suction-y tank lid for some users (especially with hand strength/arthritis) and occasional learning curve around docking/self-cleaning steps.
  • Versatility 4.3 6 reviews 4.3
    Versatility is strong for hard-floor households thanks to Smart/Turbo/Dry (suction-only) modes and adjustable water output. Most reviewers caution it’s not meant to be a primary carpet cleaner, though low-pile rugs/mats can work in a pinch.
  • Floor Drying Time 4.2 3 reviews 4.2
    Multiple reviewers note it leaves only light moisture and floors dry quickly after a pass; water-output adjustment helps balance cleaning strength versus dry time.
  • Controls & UI 4.2 9 reviews 4.2
    Controls are typically simple (power + mode) with a clear display and voice prompts. Users like having water-output and volume controls, but at least one tester couldn’t fully mute voice prompts and others mention a small learning curve for self-cleaning workflows.
  • AI, Smart & App / Automation 4.2 3 reviews 4.2
    Smart mode uses sensors to adjust power/water based on detected dirt; reviewers see it ramp up on heavier messes. There’s no recurring mention of an app, but the automation itself is appreciated for day-to-day cleaning.
  • Filtration / Dust Containment 4.2 3 reviews 4.2
    HEPA/air filtration is referenced in multiple reviews, with filters catching noticeable pet hair and fine debris. Users emphasize keeping the filter clean/dry for best performance.
  • Support & Reliability 4.2 1 review 4.2
    Only a small number of reviews mention after-purchase support details; one cites a 2‑year warranty and a 30‑day return policy. Broader reliability feedback is limited beyond short-term use.
  • Build quality & durability 4.2 6 reviews 4.2
    Build quality is generally described as solid for the price, with praise for the stable lay-flat mechanism and waterproof/washable chassis/motor design (IPX-style). Minor negatives include occasional leakage reports and a small learning curve with docking alignment.
  • Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistance 4.2 2 reviews 4.2
    Anti-tangle design and scrapers/comb features generally keep long hair from wrapping tightly. Stress tests show hair may stick temporarily, but it’s usually easy to remove and often ends up trapped in the tank filter instead.
  • Storage footprint & upright-stand stability 4.1 5 reviews 4.1
    The push-in base makes parking easier than lift-on docks and reviewers like the compact footprint. Some note it’s happiest when docked against a wall and that occasional alignment/positioning habits help.
  • Automatic shutoff for obstructions 4.1 1 review 4.1
    At least one tester reports the unit detecting a clog and warning the user to check the roller/pipe, preventing continued operation until addressed.
  • Hard Floor — Large Debris Intake 4.1 7 reviews 4.1
    It handles larger debris and mixed messes (cereal, sauce, even spaghetti in one demo) better than many expect. However, very light pieces can scatter, and at least one reviewer saw eggshell not picked up in a specific mode/test.
  • Sanitizing performance 4.0 7 reviews 4.0
    Sanitizing claims come from electrolyzed-water/“sterilization” language and heated drying. Some reviewers run informal bacteria comparisons that look promising, but most acknowledge true disinfection levels aren’t lab-verified in these reviews.
  • Water tank 4.0 8 reviews 4.0
    The D100’s water system is often described as a dual-compartment or “two-in-one” tank that keeps clean and dirty water separated. Capacity is cited anywhere from ~650 ml fresh/~700 ml dirty to about ~1 liter total. Tanks are generally easy to remove, but filling access and the tight lid/fit draw some complaints.
  • Streaking / Residue 3.9 3 reviews 3.9
    Some users report an even, streak-free finish and visibly shinier floors, while another notes that backward movement can smear more than with some competing wet/dry vacs (consistent with many floor washers being optimized for forward passes).
  • Hard Floor — Fine Dust Pickup 3.9 3 reviews 3.9
    Fine debris like dust and small particles is generally collected well, but one reviewer warns that very large amounts of powder (e.g., flour) mixed with liquid can form paste and cause issues.
  • Dried-On Stain Removal 3.9 2 reviews 3.9
    Dried coffee/ketchup style tests suggest it can lift set-in stains, but may require repeated passes—performance is better on fresh spills than on fully dried, sticky stains.
  • Maintenance requirements 3.9 6 reviews 3.9
    The self-clean routine reduces hands-on scrubbing, but ownership still involves emptying/ rinsing tanks, cleaning filters, and occasionally clearing thicker debris. Reviewers mention mixed wet+dry sludge can be unpleasant to dump, and long drying beeps (in some units) add annoyance to the maintenance loop.
  • Noise level 3.8 3 reviews 3.8
    Operating noise varies by mode—Turbo is described as noticeably louder. Several measure/describe the drying airflow as relatively quiet (low‑40 dB in one test), but repeated beeps during drying and voice prompts can be more annoying than the fan noise itself.
  • Tool-change simplicity 3.8 3 reviews 3.8
    Roller removal and routine access are often tool-free and quick. The main exception is the dirty-tank lid/fit, which can require a firm pull/wiggle and may be difficult for users with limited hand strength.
  • Battery & Charging 3.5 8 reviews 3.5
    Battery life is reported as “enough” for kitchens/entryways and smaller homes, but not long. Reported Smart runtimes range roughly from the low‑20 minutes to ~35 minutes; Turbo/Power mode is often ~16–18 minutes. Charging is widely criticized as slow in some tests (~6+ hours), though at least one reviewer reports closer to ~4 hours.

Cons

  • Area Rug Handling 3.0 2 reviews 3.0
    On carpets/rugs the consensus is “limited”: it’s mainly for sealed hard floors, but a few reviewers say it can handle low-pile rugs or doormats in dry mode with modest results.
  • Clogging & debris prevention 3.0 1 review 3.0
    Normal household messes don’t appear to clog it often, but thick mixtures (like flour plus liquid) can clog the tube and require rinsing/cleanout. The included cleaning tool and washable design help recovery.
  • Airflow blowback 2.7 2 reviews 2.7
    A recurring downside is blowback/scatter on very light debris (e.g., cat hair or some cereal) before pickup, especially at the start of a pass. Most reviewers still consider it manageable with technique/mode choice.

FAQ

Can the D100 replace a regular vacuum on carpets?

It’s primarily built for sealed hard floors. Several reviewers say it can handle low‑pile rugs or mats in dry mode, but it’s not a deep-clean solution for carpeted rooms.

What runtime and charging time should I expect?

Across reviews, Smart mode is commonly reported around ~20–35 minutes and Turbo/Power around ~16–18 minutes. Charging is often described as slow (~6+ hours in some tests), though at least one reviewer reports closer to ~4 hours.

Does the self-cleaning + hot-air drying actually prevent smells?

Most reviewers say the rinse cycle pulls a lot of grime out of the roller and the heated dry leaves it mostly dry, which helps reduce odor and mildew risk. A few note the drying period can beep repeatedly and the roller may not be 100% dry every time.

How close to walls/baseboards does it clean?

Edge cleaning is a strong point: the roller reaches close to baseboards and tight edges. One detailed test measured the remaining gap at roughly 5–6 mm from the wall.

Is it good for pet hair?

Yes on hard floors—multiple pet owners show it picking up visible dog/cat hair, and the anti‑tangle design reduces wrap. Odor-control features (deodorizer + heated drying) are also frequently praised for pet homes.

What messes are most likely to cause trouble?

Very powdery spills mixed with liquid (like flour paste) are the most common ‘problem’ example and can trigger clogs that need rinsing out. Very light debris can also scatter ahead of the head, so slower passes and the right mode help.
