Smaller than I expected. I had previous model which was larger.
Works great though
Brought as a present for my mum after her old one broke. She was happy with it. The only let down is that the attachments from the older model do not fit this new model which she was a little sad about. Other than that it was great.
Better than anticipated! I bought Karcher because their products, although more expensive than many others, do what they’re supposed to do. I’d give this 6 stars if I could!
Very happy with this product makes cleaning windows so much easier now
Great window cleaning aid light compact and easy to use
Cleaning windows of house downstairs makes the job easier only had to change it once still going strong easy to use good item.
I have tried a couple of makes of window vacums and this U found to be the best. This seems to have kept a good suction and has not broken like the others have after a year.
It works well although it is smaller than my old one that isn’t working any more
Lightweight very efficient and long battery power great price too
Has many uses ideal for clean up in shower cubicle for instance.
I had my original until recently, only replaced blades. However, it did give up after many years excellent service. My replacement doesn’t seem as sturdy but must admit it does do a good job. Slightly different design which only time will tell if as good as original.
Enjoy washing my windows once again, this is a good buy
Bought as a gift, recipient likes it for the bathroom tiles after showering and for condensation on windows in winter.
Love my little Karcher. No wiping down in the shower anymore just switch on and it sucks all water up. Also fab for cleaning windows and anything glass.
I was sceptical to start but I was surprised.at the ease of it ,don’t use it side ways as the liquid falls o
in our family household, we have found the Krcher WV 1 Window Vac invaluable during the winter months.
Also great for cleaning mirrors and glass shower screens.
Amazon are rubbish at customer support and I could not get help or a replacement on my broken window vac, attempted direct with Karcher but no reply so far. I would not buy anything off Amazon again unless consumable as their guarantee is not a guarantee.
so glad I purchased this…. my husband leave water in the bath after a shower and this makes light work of wiping/ sucking up the water in no time. its rather addictive to use so I make sure mine its always charged up.
my shower screen is always streak and watermark free and I love using it. lightweight and super easy to use. I would highly recommend it.
My window cleaner having given up his round I borrowed a Karcher to do my windows. I was so impressed I bought my own. I saved the cost – compared to a window cleaner – within a couple of weeks.
It works well on car windows, bathroom mirrors and showers too. It takes a little practice to get the best results – just don’t press hard, draw it over the glass and let the suction and squeegee do their work.
Makes light work of cleaning windows and shower doors etc. Has good suction; easy operation; acceptable battery life and recharges quickly.
Purchased because we get a lot of condensation on our windows on colder days. Was getting fed up with using cloths and towels. This vacuum is just brilliant. Takes seconds to wipe over the windows and removes an amazing amount of moisture. Battery life great too!
Easy to use , made up diluted solution of fairy liquid , sprayed on window, and with vertical strokes via VW1 removed dirt from window, the sucked up diluted dirty water going into the container on VW1 so easy to use no more heavy manual labou
This is basically a vacuum cleaner that sucks up water. You still have to scrum the windows, but once you run this over it finishes them off well. No streaks any more. Did 10 windows and 2 patio doors and there was still life left in the battery.
I’ve also used it on the tiles in the bathroom, kitchen and splash backs and glass hob. Also did the car windows. It’s great that its cordless.
Absolutely chuffed to bits with this Karcher Vac. The suction power is great and we use it on the shower screen and walls in the ensuite every day.
We purchased the Vac a month ago and gave only had to charge it once. My Sister also got one and loves hers too. She uses hers on her tiled kitchen floor and recommends highly too.
Absolutely love this window vacuum. It’s such a great idea and design. No need for dehumidifiers dotted around the house now. This window vacuum clears condensation from windows in no time and collects the water in a handy little container attached. Excellent value for money too.
Am very pleased with my Karcher purchase. Its lightweight and will easily and swiftly clean a medium size shower. You can then empty the water collected in the water container ready for next day reuse.
The unit also works well on collecting the water after cleaning small to medium sized windows.
The instruction manual is comprehensive and the unit comes with a two year warranty.
The charging time is around two hours and will run for around 25 mins between charges. A more powerful battery would be helpful for longer running time. Can recommend if you are looking for a reliable mid sized unit.
I love this Karcher. Bought as a work replacement for the same model which has seen considerable use. I find this model far more manageable than the larger version, it works best with a decent lather leaving a clean, streak free shine.
It’s streak free and lightweight. Perfect for clearing condensation. Even cleans the window!
Brilliant easy to use streak free windows and bathroom tiles etc.
we have not used it yet so don’t know how it performs it should be fine
I loved it fabulous ever the suction is so strong brilliant so thank you
Before it was either a cloth or a sponge wipedown in the shower room now just let the Karcher do the work , easy
I use my kercher for cleaning the bath and shower doors. It does an excellent job, I always recharge after use so its ready to go for the whole family to clean aup after themselves.
Used for my van ,quick and easy to mop up condensation ,seems good quality,and light to handle .
We have single-glazed front door and due to high humidity in the area, we had to wipe it down at least once a day, every day. Even when wiping it with paper towels or cloth, there is so much condensation on the glass that it was running down faster than we could wipe it.
I expected it to be a problem even for the vac but, to my surprise, the suction is so powerful that it’s not an issue. Pleasantly surprised.
Lighter than i expected as well.
Very good window vac. I have a lot of condensation on bedroom windows in the winter and always used to use old microfibre towels to mop it up but then bought this vac and wondered why I didn’t buy it years ago! Very light to hold and sucks up the condensation on its first sweep down the window. Used it in the shower too and its excellent. Will use it in the summer as well when I clean my glass top garden table. Since using it first time it has still kept it charge so I am very happy with purchase.
The only fault is it needs several passes to take all the condensation off the window
Have had several different versions of these window Vacs. This is the cheapest in the range and hence just the basic Vac with a large blade, It is great for removing condensation from large windows,the water goes into a small clear tank which you just empty when full. The charge seens to last pretty well and recharges fairly quickly. I prefer the wWV5 which comes with an aditional smaller blade which is better on small windows and shower cubicles. The downside of these Window Vacs and other cordless appliances is that the weak point is always the batery which gives out after a few years. It is then very difficult to get new batteries and if you can there are restrictions on where they can be sent to and can not be returned if you get the wrong one as caries wont touch them. In additional for this product if you do manage to get a replacement it is not cost effective as the battery for this cost about 28 so you end up dumping a perfectly good product.
2nd time buying,1st time lasted quite a few years,really reliable.
straightforward and easy to use, easy to empty. I get a lot of condensation on my windows and have to use it daily in winter.
Good quality, switch is abit stiff to press but very practical, so many uses glass, mirrors, spills. Must have gadget.
My bathroom was getting very wet after showering and patches of moisture would sometimes stay for days due to the colder weather and insufficient insulation.
We purchased this on recommendation and are so pleased. After using this all over our bathroom about 99% of the water is removed and whatever is left can clear up much quicker. The tank fills quickly and has a fairly low max level (about 1/4-1/3 full) if you over fill whilst vacuuming it can start to leak.
Its super quick and easy to empty. You just pull out the water tank, twist off the cap and pour it out.
Best purchase we have made in a while to protect from mould etc in the bathroom.
Very pleased with this purchase. Does a good clean job. Easy to use.
Upgrade on a older version works just as well very happy. I use to dry condensation on bathroom windows .
Works really fast – one swipe, water is gone. Slight drawback is the low capacity of the water container – so you have to empty it out a couple times while using it to work on large windows. Other than that, great product.
Bough this to tackle the condensation on my windows. I use it every morning and each set of windows pretty much fills the reservoir to the max line. Great to know that water is going down the drain and not creating damp and mould. I have plastic wrapping on the windows and works fine with this too. Didn’t realise this was a smaller version than the one I wanted, as I didn’t check properly, but this is just as good as the larger one. Charge lasts quite a while and has a green light that lets you know it is charging and goes off once full charged. Would recommend for anyone with condensation issues.
This is a great wee thing and overal brilliant, however, the base is so chunky it doesn’t allow for windowsills, therefore the very bottom (a bout an inch) doesn’t get touched unless I turn upside down. Other than that, I love it!
Great for my Victorian single glass bay windows and sash bedroom windows
Love this product. We use it to dry Shower daily, clear windows in our House and Caravan. Last one lasted several years and we immediately bought the same again.
EASY TO USE MAKES CLEANING FASTER WITH A PROFFESIONAL FINISH.MY WINDOWS ARE SPARKLY CLEAN .GREAT PRODUCT .
I bought this because we wake up to a lot of condensation on our windows everyday, it used to take ages to wipe it all off and using so much tissue to mop it up felt very wasteful. This little baby slurps the windows dry super quickly with only a little run off, which can be easily mopped up. My young boys have happily taken responsibility for hoovering their own windows each day too!! Great buy, if you have issues with condensation on your windows – get it!
Loved the product as it does what it is supposed to do . Great suction to collect water off windows with no smears .
I use this for cleaning windows and the car, and for clearing up condensation and the shower door. Marvellous.
Cannot praise this enough. My parents kitchen was full of condensation during winter. We had a similar window vaccum so bought this for then and it arrived striaght away. It’s so easy to use and all the family were almost fighting over who would use it because it’s pretty satisfying to clear the condensation off the windows and doors. It’s so easy to use, the battery life is reasonable and it charges again simply and quickly. It’s already made a huge difference and will save my elderly parents from having to dry the windows with towels several times a day.
Good basic window vac. Does what it’s designed to do with no fuss.
You just get the vac no add on’s.
Easy to empty and charge. On off switch a little hard to turn on off but not too much to be a problem.
If you just want a vac to suck up window condensation it’s perfect. For this job I can recommend.
2nd one I’ve bought, really good product in the winter time.
This makes easy work of condensation on the inside of windows .
Awesome piece of equipment that I use 2 or 3 times a week. Great battery life
Easy to use and leaves windows etc lovely and clean no streaks. Would recommend.
Lightweight, hreat suction and easy to charge.
Really plesed with product.
I love this product windows done in a fraction of time ,and it dries so quickly with the powerful suction ,so easy to use
This Karcher is a smaller model to the last Karcher I bought so I was sceptical as to whether it was up to the job. I’m pleased to say that it’s quite efficient although you have to empty it more frequently because it’s less capacity. Use it in the wet room to dry off the panelling and sliding doors. Would recommend
Makes the job of cleaning windows much easier for all ground floor windows and inside upstairs windows.
I got this on a whim for window washing but now I also use it for condensation everywhere too – the shower room walls, the house windows in the morning in colder rooms, the car windscreen etc etc. The suction is not the greatest, the blade frequently leaves some vertical streaks, and the battery is limited, but it’s good enough to be a regularly used item round the house now.
Clean windows with no streaks and all achieved with little effort and absolutely no streaks!
After a lifetime of imperfectly cleaned window glass, a friend demonstrated their Karcher Window Vac on one of our windows. I bought mine immediately. And it works like magic! 1. Read the instructions carefully. 2. Put warm water in a bowl and squirt in some washing-up liquid. 3. Wet a micro-fibre cloth in the water and, in circular movements, quickly loosen up all the marks on your glass. 4. Starting at the top of your window, immediately, begin slowly taking the blade down the glass, one strip at a time, until you have cleaned the whole surface. 5. If necessary, before the glass has dried out, clean any small areas of soapy water along the bottom with one single horizontal stroke. Then stand back and admire your handiwork. (It works outdoors as well, if necessary.)
Would have given 5 stars but the on/off switch is terrible and difficult to operate. Spoiled an otherwise great product. Still use it but my wife can’t switch it on or off its that bad.
I used this for the first time yesterday to clean all the interior windows in my small semi-det house. I find it easy to use and I am delighted with the perfect finish. I sprayed each window with a mix of vinegar and water and used the vac to suction up any liquid, leaving the window sparkling clean and completely smear free. I read in other reviews that people use a duster to rub the window before vacuuming but I found that this wasn’t necessary. Spray and vac was enough probably because it was only the interiors I was cleaning. I am going to try cleaning the outside downstair windows on a day when the weather is more encouraging. The window-cleaner who cleans all the outsides says he doesn’t want to take on the insides. He doesn’t come very often so it’s good that I can clean the outside of the downstairs windows between his visits. I am thankful to Karcher for producing this vac which is so helpful to me and to Amazon for the price reduction and reliable delivery.
Clears condensation very well. On/off switch a little fiddly at times but still a good tool.
when it comes to cleaning windows , one of the best invention on the market. this my second one the first was an original. but the latest iis far better because the motor is above the retaining tanks therefore allowing more liquid in without flooding into the motor. well worth the money.
This karchar vac is great, clears windows in seconds (car and house), is also good for removing water off a just washed car.
I’m really pleased with my purchase. It’s easy to use and easy to empty. My only gripe is I find it hard to switch on/off. The switch is not easy to use. Definitely recommend this product.
Was a little disappointed as I found the on and off button very hard to press. I found it quite hard to hold.
So easy to use and quick, gives good results. You have to watch for streaks on the windows, not sure if I should press harder or lighter, perhaps it’s a case of trial and error. But much easier, quicker and better than using window cleaners and kitchen roll! No smears and crystal clear.
Would have give five stars on usage but hard to press the on off butto
I think this is the most basic version of the Karcher window vac and that’s fine by me – I don’t need a load of bells and whistles! Does the job fine sucking up condensation on windows. For my shower screens I use the Karcher cleaning fluid diluted on a cloth and then use the device – all very successful and streak free. Overall very happy with my purchase.
The window vac is simple to use, powerful enough to dry windows easily and empties quickly. We have issues with condensation and this at least resolves the consequence. Wish we had bought one sooner.
Window condensation dealt with , easy to use, bit of a miracle piece of kit actually. Might seem expensive but this baby doesn’t mess about, my wife loves it as well. Comes with re-charger so I guess it should last years. Sucks up every drop of moisture from windows, and with freezing nights now here it is seriously needed. There are one or two negative reviews which I just don’t get. It really is the business.
S.R.J
As my wife said after we got this “possibly the best purchase on Amazon this year”! We have a lot of condensation on the windows on cold mornings, and I mean a LOT! Previously we’ve struggled trying to figure out what to do about it, then I saw an advert for this and it was a game changer. The windows go from dripping with condensation, to clear and dry in seconds! It’s so quick and easy to use!
The only real downside is the collecting bottle needs emptying frequently and the battery needs recharging sooner than I’d have expected. The positives are that these are both quick and easy things to do as well. It’s fully recharged in under an hour, and emptying the water from it takes just seconds.
A worthy investment and would definitely recommend it.
Having moved to a larger house with a lot of windows, my patience was tested and my time taken up trying to get streak free cleans. The larger windows are on the rear of the house and get more sun so all you could see were the streaks. Bought a karcher and OMG why didn’t I have one years ago? It has made light of hard work. I love it. Can’t use it enough. Windows, showers partitions, tiles, wardrobe mirror doors, it’s brilliant.
Does exactly what we bought it for, efficiently removing excess condensation from windows.
A useful tool. Used to remove excess water in shower, which reduces limescale residue. Also used on windows to clear condensation on cold mornings.
Very disappointed with this product, this was the second Window Vac 1 I purchased! The first one didn’t charge and the second leaks water and the suction is very poor, doesn’t even come out of the nozzle! I’ve only used it twice as it won’t do the job properly. I tried to return it but can’t! Which leaves me very frustrated and angry.
Bought this Karcher for window condensation in our Lodge.
However, it’s uses don’t end there.
It’s fantastic at removing water from shower doors, condensation on mirrors etc.
It’s easy to use, efficient, very light and the charge gives plenty of time to do many windows .
Just a loveable, well made gadget for around the home and your car!
Should have bought one of these ages ago. Great product, easy to use and light.
Easy to handle and removes most water without problems
Doesn’t appear to last long however as it needs recharging after 4 to 5 uses (
The battery last a useful amount of time, surprising how much water it collects.
Does everything it should. A bit disappointed a small blade I purchased separately for my previous model doesn’t fit this new design one
Makes cleaning windows do much easier and great results. A must have in my opinio
So easy to use & it’s wonderful to have clean non-smeary windows!
Well worth the money!!!
This is our second karcher window vac and I preferred the original as it seemed easier to empty without spilling water when you empty it but still a decent enough vac with good suction powe
Not half bad, I would like a stiffer rubber squeegee as ends bend over leaving streaks. And I found I kept knocking the water tank making it loose. But on the whole pretty good.
his item does what it is meant to do, it would be better if it were possible to obtain a new battery when the old one ceases to function, this is my third purchase, and while I can not find fault with the equipment, it is a nuisance, having to scrap the machine because the battery life is over.
Having used before i had no hesitation inbuying this product, it does the job for which it was intended & more, highly recommended
Brilliant machine for the price, very efficient and does the job required my only criticism is the on/off button which isn’t very positive to use and anyone who wasn’t strong or had a Medical condition I would advise they buy the next machine up.
This is my second Karcher and wouldn’t be without one it cleans the windows perfectly.
It sucks the water off the window once you’ve washed it, it almost does a perfect job too but I was still left with streaks, I must have been on the beer when I ordered it, thinking it actually cleaned the windows too, alas, it doesn’t. Still, for the price it’s a good enough product, I just couldn’t be bothered using i
A smaller version than the original, but easier to use on smaller windows, lighter to carry, with good suction power and a much simpler bottle removal system. All in all, an ideal gadget for the home, takes all the water off my windows with no streaks or mess, charges quickly and easily, very useful!
Excellent for all sorts of windows takes moisture off them with ease works on any glass .
Couldn’t be without my Karcher. Perfect for keeping showers spotless. Every bathroom should have one! Brilliant for cleaning windows too and particularly in the winter for condensation. We do a lot of pet sits and the Karcher comes with us so we can leave the Owner’s shower gleaming. If you still think one of those things with a blade is as good, then you don’t know what you’re missing!
