Key features
Good to know
The Proscenic F20A WashVac raises the bar for hard floor cleaning with its XXL 2-litre total tank capacity — the largest in the entire Proscenic floor washer range — and its unique ability to clean within just 0.7 cm of skirting boards. Built for pet owners, busy families and anyone who refuses to compromise on floor hygiene, this 3-in-1 floor washer vacuums, mops and dries in a single pass, reaching the edges and corners that other machines routinely miss.
At just 4.2 kg, the Proscenic F20A ranks among the lightest floor washers in its class — a real advantage when you are cleaning multiple rooms. The self-propelled drive assists every forward and backward stroke, making extended cleaning sessions far less tiring on the wrist and arm. Two LED displays — one on the handle, one on the main body — show the active mode, battery level and tank status in real time, so there is never any guesswork about how much runtime or water you have left. The completely redesigned cleaning head is where the F20A WashVac truly differentiates itself: it reaches within 0.7 cm of skirting boards and furniture legs, precisely the spots where dust and grime accumulate day after day and that conventional floor washers simply cannot reach. An auto-pause function stops the brush roller the moment the unit is held upright, conserving both battery and water during natural breaks. Finished in clean lines and a neutral colour scheme, the F20A blends into any home — from a modern kitchen to a traditional living room — without looking out of place.
With 17,000 Pa of suction and a 300 W motor, the F20A WashVac handles fine dust, crumbs, pet hair and liquid spills with equal effectiveness. The 3-in-1 mode vacuums, washes and dries simultaneously — one pass is genuinely all it takes for clean, streak-free floors. The smart sensor reads dirt levels in real time and adjusts power accordingly: it conserves water and battery on lightly soiled stretches while ramping up to full force on stubborn stains or high-traffic areas. A solid-liquid separator keeps larger debris — hair, food particles, small objects — well away from the internal circuit, meaningfully extending the machine's operational lifespan. Three cleaning modes cover every daily scenario, from a quick daily refresh to a deep weekend scrub. Yet the standout feature of the Proscenic F20A remains its edge cleaning at just 0.7 cm from baseboards — a capability that neither the F10 Pro nor most competitors in the Tineco Floor One range can offer at this price point.
The 28.8 V battery delivers 35 minutes of continuous use — comfortably enough to cover 40 to 50 square metres in one go, which means most average-sized flats can be done in a single session. Where the F20A WashVac truly sets itself apart, however, is tank capacity: 1,000 ml of clean water and 1,000 ml of dirty water, totalling 2 litres. That is the largest volume in the entire Proscenic floor washer lineup. In day-to-day use, it translates to noticeably fewer stops to empty and refill, more than offsetting the slightly shorter runtime compared with the F10 Ultra (60 min). When you spend less time at the sink, you spend more time actually cleaning — and that is the real efficiency gain.
The Proscenic F20A's smart sensor automatically detects how dirty the floor is and adjusts both suction power and water flow to match in real time. On kitchen tiles after a meal, it pushes performance to the maximum to cut through grease and food residue; on lightly dusty hardwood, it scales back water delivery to protect the delicate surface. The dual LED display provides instant visual feedback on the selected mode, remaining battery life and tank levels — readable at a glance even while you are on the move. Built-in voice guidance announces mode changes and alerts without requiring you to look at the screen, adding a genuinely hands-free dimension to the experience. The self-cleaning and drying station takes over after every session: the brush roller is thoroughly rinsed and then air-dried, effectively preventing odours and bacteria from developing between uses. The solid-liquid separator guards against internal blockages, while auto-pause intelligently halts the roller whenever the unit stands upright, reducing unnecessary wear on the brush.
The F20A WashVac's self-cleaning cycle takes the chore out of day-to-day maintenance. After each session, simply dock the unit on its station: the brush roller is automatically rinsed and air-dried, ready for next time without any manual intervention. The filter pops out with one hand and rinses under a tap in seconds. Proscenic recommends a more thorough manual brush clean roughly every fortnight to keep performance consistently at its peak. Consumable parts — brush roller and filter — are readily available as replacements and snap into place without any tools, making long-term ownership straightforward and hassle-free.
The Proscenic F20A WashVac is the clear pick for anyone who wants the biggest tanks and genuine edge cleaning in a lightweight, self-propelled package. Compared with the F10 Pro (more affordable but lacking edge cleaning and fitted with smaller tanks) and the F10 Ultra (longer 60-minute runtime but no edge cleaning capability), the F20A fills a unique and well-defined gap in the market. At roughly £190, it competes head-to-head with comparable Tineco Floor One and Dreame models, yet delivers skirting board cleaning within 0.7 cm that very few rivals can match at any price. A sound investment for those who want flawless floors right to the very last centimetre.
The Proscenic F20A vacuums, mops and dries in a single pass. The result on my kitchen tiles is outstanding: no marks, no residue. The 55-minute battery easily covers my 90 sqm. The automatic cleaning station handles everything after each use. A huge step up from the F10 I had before.
I was worried about using a wet-dry vacuum on my varnished hardwood but the F20A manages water perfectly. The floor dries in seconds and looks spotless. The only improvement I'd suggest is the weight, it's a bit heavy for lighter users. Otherwise the 3-in-1 result is truly impressive.
Three children at the dinner table means chaos. The Proscenic F20A cleans up splatters and crumbs in one pass. I use it after every meal and it's become second nature. The fact that it dries the floor too is a big advantage: no slipping risk for the little ones running around.
My ground floor is 95 sqm and the F20A handles it all on a single charge. Exactly what I needed to replace my old vacuum and mop combo. The clean water tank is generous and the dirty tank empties easily. The self-cleaning station is the cherry on top. I also have the Proscenic P13 stick vacuum for upstairs carpets.
Our Australian Shepherd sheds heavily and tracks in mud from the garden. The F20A picks up the hair and mops away paw prints in one pass. Far more effective than our old mop. Dropping one star because the brush roller occasionally wraps with long hair and needs manual cleaning.
The Proscenic F20A mops large open areas brilliantly but struggles in corners and along skirting boards. This is a common issue with all wet-dry vacuums but it's still frustrating. Suction power is good and the drying function works well. Overall a good product but don't expect perfection in tight spaces.
