Dreame Mova K10 Pro vacuum cleaner review: Worth it at ₹19,999?
Dreame Mova K10 Pro vacuum cleaner review: Does a clean house instantly lift your mood and make everything feel just right? Same here. Ever since I moved to Delhi NCR, I've realised just how dusty things get, especially during those dry summer months. Despite having house help, I often find myself stressing over unclean corners or leftover dust trails.
That's when it hit me - I needed a vacuum cleaner that could take care of things on my terms. But the real challenge? Figuring out which one to trust.
After a bit of research (and a lot of dust frustration), I got my hands on the Dreame Mova K10 Pro, a wet and dry vacuum cleaner that promises to vacuum and mop at the same time.
The Dreame K10 Pro is a lightweight, cordless cleaner with 15kPa suction power, smart dirt detection, and a handy self-cleaning feature. Designed for hard floors, it easily tackles wet and dry messes, pet hair, and everyday spills. With voice prompts, an LED display, and up to 30 minutes of runtime, it promises an easier, faster cleaning experience. This vacuum cleaner is currently priced at ₹ 19,999 on Amazon.
I've been using it for two weeks now, and here's my honest take on whether it's worth making space for in your Indian home, does it perform well for its price and other features.
To share my experience with you, let me tell you what I had on my checklist and whether the Dreame Mova K10 Pro wet and dry vacuum cleaner ticked all the boxes.
1. Vacuuming and mopping combo
3. Cordless & long battery life
4. Lightweight and easy to move around
Now let's slowly delve into the specifications, design, and performance to see if the Dreame Mova K10 Pro wet and dry vacuum cleaner qualifies my selection criteria. Specification Details Filter Type HEPA Filter Included Components Mop Form Factor Upright Colour White Power Source Battery Powered Voltage 40 Volts Item Weight 4.7 Kilograms Motor Type 120kRPM Brushless Motor Suction Power 15kPa Clean Water Tank Capacity 890 ml
I'll be honest, I've always been a little doubtful about those 2-in-1 cleaners that promise to mop and vacuum at the same time. But the moment I unboxed the Dreame K10 Pro, I was genuinely impressed. The sleek, all-white design looked clean and modern, and it felt like something that would blend well into any Indian home.
While it's not the slimmest device out there, it doesn't come off as bulky either. Yes, it's slightly on the heavier side when in use, so you do need a firm grip while manoeuvring it, especially if you're tackling larger spaces. But the overall build feels premium, and even the little details like the LED display, voice prompts, and self-cleaning feature made it clear this wasn't just another vacuum.
Setting up the Dreame Mova K10 Pro was surprisingly smooth. The instruction manual was short, clear, and to the point—which I really appreciated. Attaching the parts felt intuitive, and getting familiar with the controls didn't take long either.
The clean water tank fits in easily, and docking the device was just as simple. All you really need to remember is to keep an eye on the water levels and make sure the vacuum is held firmly when in use.
Using the Dreame Mova K10 Pro vacuum cleaner in an Indian household was honestly a mix of 'wow, this works!' and 'okay, that needs a little more attention.'
Let's start with the good bits. It does an excellent job on tiles and marble flooring. The suction power is strong enough to pick up everything from regular dust to tiny kitchen messes like coffee powder, pulses, biscuit crumbs, and even hair strands that somehow always find their way under the sofa.
It even managed wet messes like spilled tea or juice without leaving behind too much residue, which I didn't expect from a cordless vacuum. I didn't test it on wooden floors, but on other common surfaces, it worked consistently well.
The vacuum comes in auto mode by default, and you can toggle between suction-only, turbo, or deep-clean modes right from the handle. I seldom changed the modes as the auto dirt detection feature works pretty well and adjusts to the required mode,
The voice prompts are helpful but you might miss them since they get lost amidst the noise of the vacuum cleaner, so you need to be careful. The voice prompts will remind you at the right time when to empty the dirty water tank or when the roller needs cleaning.
The display screen adds to the convenience, showing battery status, current mode, water levels, and even features a decorative light ring for an extra touch.
That said, there are a few more things to note. You need to hold it at a consistent angle for it to function smoothly. Tilt it too far back or forward and it either stops mid-clean or starts leaking a little water. That can get a bit annoying if you're in a hurry. However, one thing I noticed was it leaked water everytime I stopped to put it back on the charging base.
Also, it's not exactly whisper-quiet, it's not painfully loud, but you'll definitely hear it, especially in turbo mode. Moreover, it is advisable not to lift it up while its in use or the motor might get affected.
Still, for day-to-day messes in a busy Indian home, it packs a solid punch.
More from Dreame on Amazon
Honestly, yes and no. The Dreame K10 Pro does a pretty good job reaching into corners and along the edges, way better than most regular vacuums I've used. But if you're expecting it to completely replace your broom, you might be a little disappointed.
It gets super close, but not all the way into those extreme tight corners where dust and hair love to hide. For those stubborn spots, you'll still need to grab a broom once in a while to finish the job. I'll let the pictures do the talking — you can clearly see the difference between the "before" mess and the "after" clean-up! Edge cleaning with Dreame Mova K10
On average, I got around 20 to 30 minutes of runtime per cleaning session, which is pretty decent for every cleaning session. Once the battery drops below 20%, the vacuum starts sending frequent alerts asking you to plug it in. I waited until it was at 12% to charge, and it took exactly 2 hours and 42 minutes to reach full charge. So yes, it does take its time and clearly uses a good amount of power.
One thing to note: the self-cleaning function won't work unless there's at least 20% battery left. While the vacuum doesn't slow down when the battery is low, it does drain fast once it hits that critical 20% mark, like 2–3 minutes fast. No heating issues or warning signs popped up during my usage, though, which is a relief.
While you can get away with cleaning the Dreame K10 Pro after 2–3 uses, it's best to clean and store it after every session to avoid any bad smells or mess building up on the roller brush. Thankfully, the self-cleaning feature makes maintenance easy. The vacuum automatically pulls the right amount of water from the clean water tank and cleans itself with just a single click.
Emptying the dirty water tank is simple, just rinse it out, wipe it with a damp cloth, or leave it in the sun for 10 minutes to dry. The self-cleaning function is a big plus, especially because the machine is a bit heavy and not everyone would want to lift and manually clean it. Even better, you don't have to get your hands wet or deal with any mess yourself. Pros Cons Strong suction power for dry and wet messes Struggles to clean extreme corners and edges completely Cordless with 20-30 mins runtime Takes almost 3 hours to fully charge the battery Easy setup and clear instructions Slightly heavy; needs a firm grip while in use Helpful voice prompts and clear LED display Voice prompts can get lost in the vacuum noise One-click self-cleaning function is very convenient Water leakes everytime you put it back on the charging base in between cleaning sessions Premium build quality and modern design Battery drains quickly after dropping below 20% Multiple cleaning modes (Auto, Suction-only, Turbo, Deep Clean) At a slightly higher end pricing
The Dreame K10 Pro is a solid option if you need quick, efficient cleaning without heavy lifting. It's perfect for working professionals, nuclear families, or homes with kids and pets where dry and wet messes are common. Its strong suction, mopping ability, and self-cleaning features genuinely save time and effort.
However, for small 1RK homes, it may feel excessive in size and price. It also won't fully eliminate the need for a broom in extreme corners. Plus, the device takes almost 3 hours to fully charge, which seems a little impractical for everyday.
At ₹ 19,999 it's definitely an investment. The build quality, performance, and added features do help justify the cost to some extent. But it's still a premium buy, so you'll want to weigh how often you'll realistically use it before making the jump.

Even stars attainable, says Shubhanshu Shukla; Ax-4 liftoff now on June 10
BENGALURU: Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla of India and three other members of Axiom-4 mission's multinational crew will launch for International Space Station on June 10 at 5.52pm IST, two days later than the originally planned June 8 lift-off. Axiom Space announced the revised schedule Tuesday, citing no reason for the delay. The mission, led by veteran astronaut Peggy Whitson, will launch from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex in Florida. Shukla addressed the world in a stirring final message, combining gratitude, science, and India's cultural pride. "Even stars are attainable," he said. "The last few months have been nothing short of extraordinary - of discovery and unshakable resolve. From diverse systems to advanced platforms, across continents and cultures. This training has been intense but deeply rewarding." Carrying not just scientific equipment but "the hopes and dreams of a billion hearts", Shukla will conduct seven experiments designed by Indian research institutions. These investigations, ranging from stem cell cultures to crop seed behaviour in microgravity, aim to boost India's presence in space-based science. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo "These experiments will pave the way for India's progress in microgravity science," he said. "I am proud to be the bridge between Earth and orbit for this pioneering research." Commander Whitson praised her team's dedication, work ethic, and cultural richness. She introduced the crew's zero-gravity indicator - Joy, a swan representing "Wisdom in India", "Resilience in Poland," and "Grace in Hungary". To honour India's artistic spirit, Shukla will also carry artefacts crafted by students of National Institute of Design. "I will carry them with deep pride," he said. The mission will feature live interactions from orbit, including sessions with Indian VIPs, students, academia, and space industry leaders. Asked about a possible link-up with PM Modi, Shukla confirmed multiple planned outreach events. He also paid tribute to India's first astronaut Wing Commander (retd) Rakesh Sharma, calling him a mentor. "I am carrying something to honour him, but I cannot reveal it yet - I haven't told him, and I want that to be a surprise." Shukla's payload includes Indian delicacies like mango nectar, moong dal halwa, and carrot halwa.

'Sitaare Zameen Par' makers shares his opinion on marching of tech in cinema
Director R.S. Prasanna, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming film 'Sitaare Zameen Par', feels that human beings will soon catch up with the technological changes in filmmaking. The filmmaker spoke with IANS in the run-up to the release of his film, which features Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh. He recollected how he saw Indian cinema legend Kamal Haasan experimenting with a digital camera, Red Dragon. Speaking with IANS, Prasanna said, "I think the industry is pretty fast in adapting, like I remember when 35mm film was there and I was in film school and Kamal Haasan sir was testing the Red camera in our L.V. Prasad Film Institute, Chennai where I studied. He was doing a test shoot. I remember all the people around saying, 'it's just a fad and it'll not happen, it's not gonna happen', and it did". Aamir Khan's altered AI video hits cyberspace; 'Mr Perfectionist' issues clarification on 'endorsing' a particular political party The director said that one cannot stop the march of technology and one has to adapt. The audience will demand a change, the filmmakers will rise, the technological change will happen as it should, and experiments will keep happening, some will click, some will not. He further mentioned, "But I think one thing which will never change is the way our hearts beat, so as long as the heart is there in everything, the visual is only pixels, the sound is only decibels, but that feeling, that soul, that is, as long as we have a heart, stories told by humans will always be relevant". He then cited the example of romance as to how the shape or form of romance in cinematic storytelling has changed but the soul is the same. He shared, "If you see around yourself, romance has been there from early manage, they may say romance has changed, no romance has not changed, the medium has changed, today you call it situationship or anything else but, still the heart pains if you don't get to be with the person of your choice". "I feel unless genetically our heart changes or our mind changes, I think storytelling and emotions will be the same, the form will keep changing and we have to be on the awareness of that as a director, but I think for me as a filmmaker, I'm only looking for the soul, which I think soul is very old, so it won't change that fast", he added. Produced by Aamir Khan under his banner, Aamir Khan Productions, 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is set to release in cinemas on June 20, 2025.

Pak aimed to bring India to its knees, but folded in 8 hours, says Chief of Defence Staff Gen Chauhan
1 2 Pune: Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan on Tuesday said "on May 10 around 1am, Pakistan aimed to bring India to its knees in 48 hours" but "their operation, which they thought would continue for 48 hours, folded up in about eight hours". "Then they picked up the telephone and said they wanted to talk," Gen Chauhan said. He said Op Sindoor was the first time India had engaged in non-contact warfare. "We didn't see each other. We saw it either through radar or at different ranges, except for what was happening on the LoC. It was a mixture of kinetic and non-kinetic war. When I say non-kinetic, that happened in the information domain and cyber domain. And, of course, there were kinetic operations where destruction was being caused to each other. It was also nonlinear in nature. So there's something happening on the LoC and something happening as far back as Sargodha." Gen Chauhan spoke about how India networked all its air defence architecture and was using AI for predictive analysis to give a comprehensive picture and negate the threat. "So better and faster information was available to our side. We also tried to kind of network our counter UAS system, which was countering drones. And in the 7-15 days, we were able to do that," Gen Chauhan said. The CDS, delivering a special lecture organised by Savitribai Phule Pune University's Department of Defence and Strategic Studies on the "Future of War and Warfare", also touched upon data-centric warfare, which will be based on data analysis deciding cognitive or decision superiority. "Similar green shoots of that were visible in Op Sindoor," he said. He also explained how, through Operation Sindoor , India raised the bar and redrew new lines for military operations in response to terror. Referring to his previous media statements about India suffering losses, Chauhan said, "You should be able to understand what went wrong, rectify your mistakes, and go out again despite the initial setbacks. That is a hallmark of a professional force. And that's the kind of thing we displayed. What I said in a couple of my interviews — that losses are not important, it's the outcome which is important." Chauhan likened it to Test cricket, where, when one side wins by an innings, there are no questions about how many balls or players played. Gen Chauhan said they would share data on the result of Indian strikes based on technical parameters like electronic intelligence and signal intelligence at some point. Stating that it was Pakistan's strategy to bleed India by a thousand cuts, Chauhan said Gen Asim Munir (now field marshal) had spewed similar venom against India and Hindus a few weeks before Pahalgam. "But these decisions can be retracted as Pakistan is faced with a different kind of prospect, that it faces military action in case we find terror happening against us. So we have kind of raised the bar. We have connected terror to water and we have drawn out new lines for military operations against terror." When Pakistan did ask for talks and de-escalation, Gen Chauhan said India accepted, but not immediately. According to the CDS, Pakistan's decision to talk stemmed from two facts: "They must have assumed that if they continued in this mode, they were likely to lose much more. And the second, since they struck us on multiple fronts, they still did not have the benefit of understanding what they struck and they wanted to talk. It is only after one or two days that they realised that all their attacks against us had failed." Revealing details of the night of the first airstrikes on May 7, the CDS said, "We did it from 11.05pm to around 1.30am, and five minutes later we rang the director-general of military operations to say that we've done this, we hit only terror targets, that military establishments are out of the purview of the strikes, and we ensured that there was no collateral damage to civilians. We need to talk to each other." The CDS said war has expanded into space, cyberspace, the electromagnetic domain, etc. "A lot of activities took place between both of us for four days in the electromagnetic domain. Interactivity also took place in the cyber domain. We also had a lot of activity in the domain of perception management, information, or maybe you can call it cognitive warfare, in which shaping the mind of the people is more important than the landscape. "
