Glad I chose this one.
Bought to vacuum stray pet bedding up in ferret shed. Works perfectly for intended job and picks up water when scrubbing hutches too which is a huge help.

Great suction. Not loud enough to upset ferrets when in run on yard or to upset dogs as previous ancient one did.

Has handy tool storage and doesn’t take up much space in a rather small shed.

Long enough power cable to reach to other shed where power supply is and hang over door so dogs don’t catch it.

Long enough hose so it will reach all areas that I need to get to and easy to fit bags for dusty jobs or empty.

Light weight enough so that even someone with limited mobility and strength like me can manage it.

Fabulous basic vacuum
Fabulous simple vac which copes with the heaviest of jobs. Great value.
Just remember to be careful not to pull it over as you will need to refit the top and possibly the bag. I carry it on uneven surfaces.

Powerful suction and good tools.
The Karcher was very effective in picking up my woodshop waste. I did not like the use of the bag and I’ ill probably not use it again. Overall I recommend this vacc as a good workshop vacc

Powerful light weight vacuum cleane
Like the vacuum cleaner
Perfect in the garage and outside with its wet/dry feature
Longer flex would be handy
But a robust powerful suction
Amazing power for its size light weight and on 4 wheels too
Would recommend

Small yet mighty
Small but mighty!
This is a great vacuum. I’d fully valeted mine and the wife’s car. It has a very strong suction and combined with a screw driver brush attachment and a foaming carpet shampoo, the seats and mats come up brand new!

I tested the wet suck with a fair bit of water but it filled very quickly and it didn’t seem to like it. Haven’t bothered since but so far haven’t really needed to!

Really powerful and light to use.
Bought this to use whilst decorating as my previous workshop vacuum, from a different manufacturer, had to be returned under warranty. For the price this vacuum has a very powerful suction. It is lightweight and pulls along very easily. My one criticism, hence four stars, is the attaching clamps on the sides. They feel quite fragile and as there does not appear to be a positive location it can take a few attempts to reattach the top to the base. Also when you put the accessories on the positions created on the base makes it difficult to wrap the suction tube around the body. Overall, despite these minor niggles, I am very pleased with the purchase.

I have no idea why ‘Steel’ appears in the title line for this product as it is entirely plastic, obviously with the exception of the motor.

It sucks it up!!
Cracking little hoover for picking up all the big bits and the dirty jobs you don’t want to use your house hoover for!! Wheels are a bit naff, it falls over a lot and doesn’t seem to like it. I had to keep turnimg it off reseting it, and off we’d go again.
Over all, it’s a great priced hoover for all the messy and clunky jobs. It’s doing exactly as I wanted, shame about the wheels though.

Great sucke
It is a lightweight hoover for all manner of rubbish. I have used it in the garden, particularly for keeping my artificial grass free from conifer droppings, and cleaning up after chopping wood in my garage, and valeting the cars. A brilliant piece of kit for not a lot of money. Great suction, tends to fall over if you are not careful when pulling it along, however once you are used to that it is not a problem. Highly recommended like most Karcher products.

It’s what hoovering dreams are made of
I don’t know why I’ve been spending hundreds of pounds on Dysons when you can get a cheap hoover like this that does absolutely everything you can even suck the crap out the shower and sort the crap out the tumble dryer I mopped the floor and suck it dry Hoover at the garage and it’s also Epica clean in the ca

Really impressed
I was looking for something for my workshop to work as a hoover and dust extractor for saws. Must say I was a little dubious about this when first buying it, but very impressed. Copes fine with the smaller wood dust particles and hoovers everything else up great to. Really easy to put in/replace the bag.

Cost effective, efficient multi task dry and wet vacuum cleaner. Buy!
Great for general household, garden, garage and car. I got it 30% of the price (42 listed on Amazon 58) due to minor cosmetic defects but worked beautifully. Thanks Amazon!
Caution: Remember to clean the tubes with water after use in the garden soil to prevent tubes clogging up! I used it to collect debris and small stones from loose pointing on patio. True time and back saver!! Worth every penny. Beware if wet pointing is sucked it may clog up the tubes and may become solid so use for dry pointing debris only.
Good suction and light weight. May topple if pulled or dragged suddenly so try to move it nearer the work area using castors rather than pulling on the cord suddenly. If topples it will switch off due to safety mechanism as complained by a viewer earlier. You can add some compact weight inside the container to provide extra stability.

Weebles did not make this
It does fall over easily. I ended up taking the wheels off. But it does what is says on the tin.

Family friendly- picks up everything !
I had a top brand vacuum and it was useless – I bought this after recommended by a fellow parent and it’s amazing. It will suck anything up, wet or dry, lumpy or otherwise. Great for skills, breakages or if your kids are dirty yolks like mine are. Love this and the value is exceptional!

Had this since 2016 still going strong
I bought this as builders vac when we built an extension to the house. 4 years later, after being used for further renovation works around the house, it is still working after sucking up pretty much everything it is asked to, wood dust, brick dust, general dirt from a home extension build.
The bags from 3rd party are cheap and i normally reuse them 3 or 4 times before they become torn. the brown drum shapped filter needs tapping out and a dust from time to time and thats it.
Like all hoses things do get caught in them from time to time but a quick poke with a stick sorts it out, theres nothing fancy here it not a cyclone but it suction is very strong and has remained so not sure about power consuption but i need a stong vac that can take a beating… tick box
Really good vac and im buying a 2nd for my Dad today hence the 4yr late review.

Very good vacuum at a great price
Very good vacuum cleaner suction is fantastic and very light and easy to use. Only slight thing which doesn’t bother my is the noise it makes it is quite load

Very Powerful Outdoor Vacuum Cleaner. Not a Hoover ;-)
Immense suction. Bought this for the cars and I have to hold the mats down when doing the foot wells now. Previously used the household Dyson upright and that was pants in comparison. This does the job in a fraction of the time. I bought a few cheap non-Karcher attachments to add on for the jobs. The only negative really is that it’s a bit top heavy and, on my gravel driveway, will topple over sometimes. Theres an automatic shut off for when it does which requires you to power off and on again.
Not tried it on wet yet but will do a wash on the carpets soon and use the Vacuum to draw most of the water out when I do. I’d ignore the neigh sayers, they’ve probably done something wrong.

Better than I expected
After researching this product I was not sure whether to go for this version or a more expensive wet dry vac. I really only needed it to help clean a drain of stones and debris. I was not absolutely sure it would do the job but at the price point it was worth taking a punt. I was not disappointed and it managed the job admirably. The extended pipe meant I could easily reach down to the bottom of the deep drain at the back of my house and there was no suction issues collecting all the small stones. A couple of the larger stones did get stuck but I was able to unblock them quickly. Used this together with the Krcher 7.5 m Pipe and Drain Cleaning Kit, a Karcher pressure washer and a couple of drain rods and the job was done.

Very versatile and a simple to use produc
A great vac, seems to cope well with everything I’ve thrown at it so far, I like its simplicity over more trendy vacs such as Dyson etc, the stuff I’ve used this for would block a normal vac in no time flat.
I haven’t tried the wet function yet so can’t comment on that.

Light work wet vac
I originally purchased this to vacuum my car carpet after washing it etc.

Do NOT buy this to vacuum your home. You will be disappointed.

It doesn’t hold a lot of water so I would not recommend it for industrial use.

It is good for sucking up spills, if you steam clean kitchen/bathroom floors use this after to suck up excess water.

I have used it to unblock outdoor drains of leaves etc.

The filter is rubbish and falls apart like wet cardboard hence 4 stars.

Overall I have put this wet vac through it’s paces and it is still working as new ( I am surprised)

People complaining about the suction etc, if you want an industrial wet vac this is not the product for you. This is for very light work hence the price ( you pay for what you get )

Overall for light work this is a very good wet vac

Good value for money
Does what it says on the tin, gets rid of animal hair, doesn’t balk at much. Makes a bl**dy racket, though and has a habit of falling over if you aren’t careful, worth bearing in mind if you were looking for something quiet. Does require quite a bit of arm power to use on carpets/upholstery so possibly not suitable for someone with arthritis

Good enough that someone stole i
Used it to vacuum my car once.

That one time I did use it it was great and it picked up the dirt in my car with ease.
Even tried it out on a wet spill which it worked very well on.
Two attachments which was perfect enough for my use and the suction cable had good reach.
Would have loved it to have a longer power cable but my roll up extension cable sorted that out.

But alas… I stored it in my shed and that was the end of it.

Some cretin probably a junkie looking for a quick fix, decided to relieve me of my beloved vacuum I started to call my Minion. Broke my shed lock in the process, must have seen it through the window. It’s bright yellow and I guess you cannot miss it.

Too traumatised to get another one to replace it immediately, maybe later but it definitively will not be going in the shed.

Was fun while it lasted.

his has to be the best hoover I've ever had honestly it's fantastic
What can i say, this has to be the best hoover I’ve ever had honestly it’s fantastic. The suction is brilliant and has never changed from when I bought it, it’s light so easy to pull around or carry, I haven’t used the wet part yet has haven’t needed to. The price is brilliant i paid 42 pound which is amazing for a good Hoover. Would definitely recommend I can’t praise it enough.

LOVE MY NEW SUPER SUCKER
I bought i von haus hoover it was no good .blew air out instead of sucking it up.it was like trying to hoover up with a hairdryer.lol.this how ever is so powerful and i am pleased to inform everyone .as good as my old pet Dyson if not better plus if you smash your pint of beer this bad boy drinks it with the glass.i would recommend this to all.

Robus
When I first took it out of the box I didn’t think it seemed as robust as my old cleaner which I’d had for twenty years or more but now I’ve been using it it’s great maybe even better great power enough for the dirtiest of jobs maybe a bit load but as I only use it out side for the car and cleaning up after DIY jobs it’s fine no problems at all

I love this thing. Second buy, and can't be without one!
This is a wonderful appliance that I note has had poor reviews from some. I agree it has its issues, the ones that I note are that it tips over easily–so go easy with it and not like a bull at a gate–and that the head detaches too easily, i.e. is press-fit and doesn’t latch into place. HOWEVER, the upsides are huge and I am not sure how anyone can expect more from an appliance at this price band. I bought mine first for around 80 (this is the second…just bought a new one) and was so impressed by it that I have bought the second.

I love that it has the multi-functional base, that can be used wet or dry, with a vast container that I use for many other things besides vacuuming! I detach it regularly and use it as a mopping bucket, and the fact it’s on wheels makes it so easy to move. It literally glides along… so if you have to transport heavy fluids, this base does the job.

The cleaning power on dry dust and debris is fantastic, and I have bought the second specifically for building debris and dust that will soon wreck a standard vacuum cleaner and stop its motor working. I used my first Karcher (same as this) on all manner of debris for years and never had an issue, no loss of suction.

I have even used it to clean the gravel drive up. As years go by, the gravel acquires all sorts of general crud and dust, also tiny leaf particles that stop it looking good. I got rid of the weeds and lay a garden sieve down on the dirty gravel areas, sliding it around with the vac head inside the sieve. heck, the muck this deposited in the container was a fine dust I could barely even see, and it left the gravel looking like new. Of course, nothing major could come up into the container because the sieve holes are small enough, but they were equally big enough to stop the gravel being sucked up. I recommend the technique! It’s time consuming but if you are selling your house and have patches of gravel covered in builder’s debris etc, give it a whirl on a nice dry day. The drive will end up looking like the gravel was freshly laid.

I have never used the appliance on wet spills but will give it a whirl as I have acquired an absolutely filthy sofa from ebay, ha… I plan to soak it outside and vac off the residue.

The filter unit in this is easy to clean and lasts a long time. I believe that the key to staying satisfied with most vacuum cleaners is that you look after them. If you use on wrong surfaces and crud up the filters etc, you won’t see them last. But for robustness, longevity and general efficacy I am very pleased with this. I have even considered buying several to have them in stock in case they cease being made. So take poor reviews with a pinch of salt, so to speak, because some users expect the earth and yet they’re paying low and probably expecting more than it’s designed to do.

I think I will weight the base with something too, and see if it stops tipping… if so, that makes it perfect for all sorts of home uses.

Friend recommend this but I didn't expect much for the price ...
Friend recommend this but I didn’t expect much for the price however I was pleasantly surprised. Purchased as a cleaner for upstairs which is mainly carpet, works well on hard floor also. In fact I would prefer carry this marcher up and down the stairs than use my main cleaner (dyson) this marcher cleans better. One snag is if u are cleaning a large area the lead is not very long, however this information was provided in the spec before purchase and is only one small issue all the positives out way this

Love my little 'Archie'
I love this machine! I have always got by just fine with just a broom but with 2 boys I needed something fast enough to keep up. I must admit, I use it bagless and just suck up any liquid or crumb that is left and rinse it out in the loo. It has lasted me a while now and yes, it may not last as long as it could, but at this price I will be ordering a new one when it dies. My kids have named him Archie and love the short hose so they can vacuum too, get in! It does, indeed spray a little water out of the back when you suck up a large amount of water but any drinks spilled and splashy baths are almost dried with no issue at all.
