Kärcher WD4 Premium Wet and Dry Vacuum

Great vacuum.It comes with everything you see in the photo.I was a little surprised at how large it is, it is a lot bigger than the WD3 even though it's capacity is not that much greater.Quality seems excellent. The main switch is solid and smooth, as is the motor. It's pretty quiet for a powerful vacuum, albeit not as quiet as a Miele.Everything fits precisely and it all inspires confidence.Two minor complaints are firstly the curved handle-piece that tools and extensions connect to. On the WD3 you can connect the vacuum directly to many power tools but on the WD4 the curved piece is the wrong diameter and being curved is not that friendly. You need a reducer, which are available from Amazon for about £8. The diameter you need to fit the Karcher is 35mm. I think it would be far better if they provided a replacement for the curved piece that is more "power-tool" oriented. ( The curved piece is removable but there is nothing to replace it with ). Second issue is the long extension pipe. It's too flexible, which makes vacuuming carpets difficult - it just bends with any pressure. I got round that by ordering a steel pipe from Spares to Go.A shame really, but lets not let it ruin an otherwise great vacuum!Nearly lost a star!Other than that, no complaints at all. It's a lovely vac at a decent price.

We use it in our work as cleaners and I can say, comparing to other vacuum cleaners so far this is THE BEST.First it is really light, which is great for us because we carry it around the houses.Second it is really powerfull. We combine it with the turbo brush for carpets and even in houses with dogs like german shepherd everything comes off. For the hard floors is same, there is nothing left behind, which is great because if I clean with the steamer and there is hair left it becomes a mess. And I have to change the cloth and start over.Third the extension pipes and carpet/hard floor atachments disassamble really easy, so it is easy to attach the brush directly with the hoose for cleaning the sofas, headboards, beds.Also the pipes are really long and light,so it is great for cleaning the cobwebs and hard to reach places in the house.The cable is long and combine with the lightnes is great for cleaning the stairs.This is a great product ever for a domestic use, because the price is same /in some cases cheaper/ like the other well known brands, but it is SO MUCH BETTER.I don't like the other ones, like for example Gtech one. You can not use it on stairs, heardboards, cobwebs, because the head is too big and it is heavy /the small ones are useless/. And you can not use it on a hard floor. You better swipe the floor that using that one. It is great just for carpets!The Dyson ones, the price is triple more than this, lasts 15 minutes and try to clean a cobweb with it 😁 There are hundred attachments, which are useless. But it is powerfull and easy to storage.I won't even discuss the Henry ones...So that is my personal opinion, but based on many, many other vacuum cleaners that I used in the past

I got this as a workshop Hoover. Ideal for clearing sawdust etc. But it is also used for cleaning cars and in between the tracks of sliding doors. The power is really good and its easy to empty - especially if you choose not to use the Bag. I would recommend this to a DIY enthusiast or anyone looking for a good hoover for their car. I have given 4 stars as it could have done with having a longer lead. That is my only criticism.

Really powerful and versatile vacuum cleaner.

I purchased this hoover carefully and did a comparison on all karcher hoovers as this was the top priced hoover and 1600 wat I decided to buy it only to find that it is only 1000 wat. I could have bought the cheaper one with 1000 wat.cant send back as it was posted to france. Postage as well cost me total £150.000 to buy. No happy at all.

Having a fair bit of building work done in my house, while we are still living there. Never realised just how much dust builders create. So impressed by this hoover. Sucked up dust and rubble much better than our dyson. On the whole I am really impressed with it. Does what I bought if for, and when the building work is finished I want the aquavac feature for when my garage floods in torrential rain.. Used it for clearing water from a blocked drain, did it no problems.Negative points the filter does get blocked up by dust and needs cleaning pretty frequently, which can become a bit of a chore, replacement filters are ridiculously expensive. I read on a few reviews about it toppling over. Never had this problem when it was bare floor boards. Now we have thick carpet laid, I have noticed if your not careful it could topple.

I bought this to vacuum damp weeds and moss removed from my block paving and was unhappy with the performance. The main problem is that the flexible hose accumulates some of this this rubbish and then is finally difficult to clean out because of the hose flexible configuration and design and even when I wash it there is no way to test whether it is clean or dry. Is it possible to have a smooth bore and flexibility, that is up to technicians. I have used it many times for dry builders mess and it is fine but of course make sure it is dry from the previous wash out !!, it is very mobile and no problem but I could have used an ordinary vacuum not this professional. Yes I have sent a note to the manufacturer but what could they say other than wash it out and they seemed concerned that I was vacuuming damp materials. I have not tried it to vacuum just water but my requirement was for damp materials for which it failed.requirement was for clearing up damp mess.

The new carpet Hoover's in which the power has been cut by the EU. Are not cleaning the the carpets . Fuming. EU. Let's. Get out. This. Karcher. Was. The one which now cleans my kitchen. Living room. And can pick up dry cat pellets without it blocking. Is. Spot on for me. Really pleased. Do. I recommend. Absolutely.
