Karcher WD series vacuum cleaner

[otherclive]

I am thinking of buying a Karcher WD series vacuum cleaner. It’s a bit like Henry and comes in a few sizes. Has anyone any experience of such a “ Mini beast”. They sell via Karchers Amazon shop and you can get some refurbished models too.

Is that the wet and dry one? Lidl have 1 in at £40 and got good reviews.

Yes it’s wet and dry.

Can't see anything on Which? Price. Looks good. The Lifl one is so cheap I'd buy one snd try it. My Karcher pressure washer is ace

Yes the Lidl one has virtually the same suction power as the Karcher WD2/3 ones. Might pop in on Monday.

At that price I would buy one and try it

It’s on the Lidl website. Can’t do more now, off to The Principality with the need for Ray Bans either. 😂

I picked up a Lidls one this morning, 1st impressions, really good 👍, but I already have some of there other tools, so no need to buy battery's.

Ah, so for,£30 no batteries included?
How much are their batteries?

I don’t need a cordless one as we have already got a Dyson cordless and hoover hl4 corded. I was just looking for a vacuum for DIY messy jobs and cars.

Sorry, vacuum is £40, never noticed the price of the battery.

A bit late in the day but found this video. Not bad . What do you think of the operational time scale?

Overall looks a bargain but my concern will be the cost of the batteries and charger. I wonder how that compares with Clive’s first proposal, Karcher?

Karcher refurbished £34.99 from their outlet is corded. Think the you can buy via Karcher store on Amazon with zero postage costs.

That's a good buy, works out cheaper than the Lidls one.

Our concern would the replacement bags. Many years ago we had a vacuum that required bags and all was okay for the first few years and then bags got scarce and when you did get the bags, the price was quite high. We now have bagless vacuum cleaners, one cordless and the other corded.
