KärcherWD 3 Multi-Purpose Wet-Dry Shop Vacuum Cleaner - 4.5 Gallon - With Attachments – Blower Feature, Compact Space-Saving Design - 1000W,Yellow

This is a compact, well made and effective vacuum to have around the garage or basement. It has three distinct advantages:1) unlike other smaller vacs it has wheels, which makes it great for vacuuming up floors without having to carry it around, and 2) it uses filter bags, which makes emptying it a much easier, neater task than just dumping out the contents and creating clouds of dust. 3) its nicely compact, taking up a relatively small footprint in my crowded garage. So far I'm quite satisfied with it!

I love getting out my shop vac!! Great suction and it's light enough to carry up and down the stairs.... but it's very well built and works great! So glad I bought it!! Fair price for a great product!!

Superior suction on any surface! I love this compact design with tools onboard, rolls easily, won't clog easily, easy to find cost effective replacement bags that filter well enough to vacuum cold wood ash with no dusty exhaust. Living in a forest on a mountain side brings an amazing array of dirt, gravel, pine needles and leaves inside entry ways and this vac is the answer to those woes. Making sure a husband doesn't abscond with it for nefarious workshop reasons is the only drawback to date. Excellent little work horse. Recommended without hesitation. Just keep it away from window sheers or it'll consume them from the rod before you even know it, true story. Typical shipping speed.

This model works for my needs. It is light by weight, has a long cord, good power. Using in bedrooms and closets in hard to reach places for iRobot or for faster vacuuming

I don’t have any experience with other shop vacs to compare this to so I don’t know how well it works in comparison to others. I mainly chose this because it is not some cheap brand like so many others. This is a respected brand in Germany and I figured it would outlast many of the others being sold here.The second reason for choosing it was the 20 ft. power cord vs. 10 ft. cord on others.I’m using it to replace a stand up vacuum as the way my house is laid out I need to switch over between the vac and the hose a great deal. With a stand up vac it is a hassle, it has little reach and constantly falls over as I’m trying to reach areas with the hose. This is nice it has cut vacuuming time in half and I don’t constantly need to stand it back upright. I does a great job of sucking things up. I rarely have to take a second pass over anything.The only down side is it only has 2 attachments and the hose is not standard for the US. This was an easy enough fix as I bought a 35mm (1 3/8) to 32mm (1 1/4) adapter so that I can attach standard 1 ¼ inch hose attachments. This worked fine it had a solid tight connection on the Karcher hose end and the 1 ¼ inch attachments fit well on the other.I’m not sure if Amazon is going to allow this part but I will try anyhow. I watched a video on shop vac beginner mistakes and it mentioned one was not having bags to extend the filter life. It also went in to showing the guy cut one end of the bag open re-roll it a couple times then use metal clips to reseal it. He had re-used the bag many times so don’t let bag prices scare you just buy yourself a few strong metal clips and you are off.I’m happy with the purchase.

Came quick and as described. Box was a little damaged, due to rough shipping maybe? No packaging inside box for protection, so maybe don't have shipped in original packaging. Damage was on hose side, so seems ok.

Noise level is ok,it is easy to carry around the house, I tried other vacuum cleaners but I am so glad that I found a Kaercher Vaccum cleaner on Amazon, I had one in Germany but I had to leave it behind because of th different Voltage,

Suction is beyond expectation, power is like a jet engine, easy to set up and easy to use, light weight, effortless to pull around, would be more perfect if size is smaller and noise is less, but very satisfied so far, hope it will last.
