Karcher WD1 Review

The Karcher WD1 Vacuum Cleaner is a battery-powered wet and dry vacuum cleaner. Due to its cordless nature, it's portable and therefore extremely versatile in its applications. One of these applications is cleaning car interiors. It's aided in this task by an attachable crevice nozzle and an upholstery nozzle. It's also suited to vacuuming up outdoor debris such as leaves. It even has a blower function to dislodge dirt from corners in order to vacuum it up.

The Karcher WD1 is a compact appliance. This makes for neat storage between uses. It also makes it lightweight and therefore easier to move around. Despite its compact size, it has a container capacity of 7 litres. We especially like the LCD screen which shows the battery status in real-time. The low noise level is also notable. It's around 65dB.
