Our window vac failed. Karcher service engineers told us that the window vac cannot be used horizontally ie on its side, because water gets into the motor. He advised us to use a cloth for the bottom strip of the window! It's a design fault that Karcher have failed to correct and do not tell you about. Joseph B

It might be a pain in the ass but if the container is empty and you do one horizontal stroke at a time because it's not much water, empty and them another. That would take care of the problem util they fix it or if they don't fix it, problem solved. Maybe

Bought mine about 13 years ago when they first came out, still going strong. Would not be without it. I use my own solution to clean the windows then with the glass still wet use the vac then buff up with a microfibre or minky glass cloth. Good for cleaning shower screens too. Btw. Bathroom spray cleaners which say remove limescale work great on windows. Think you will find extra large microfibre cloths will make the job even easier. Another great video.

I love my Karcher and have had it for a few years. I clean my bathroom and kitchen tiles and household mirrors with it as well. Does a fantastic job, I wouldn’t be without one, such a great product. I don’t use the window cleaner either, just warm water with a little washing up liquid added. 👍

Yes, windows have to be quite wet to not leave any streaks. I tried to clean the windows using their spray on a sunny summer day and it was impossible. So now I also use just a simple cloth to wash and wet them and then go over with the Karcher.

Just used it for the 1st time,it was direct sunlight on a very dirty big glass surface (like yours) and it was a disaster,streaks everywhere.....made me think it can only maintain already pretty clean surfaces but was also suspecting that bottle sprayer was not doing the trick, ended up cleaning with my microfibre cloths (they do a great job but I get tired since it's time consuming)....will give it another go with applying more moisture, thanks!
@KerryWhelpdale
@KerryWhelpdale 2 жыл бұрын
Yes definitely apply more moisture.. once you do that and make sure it doesn’t dry at all before vacuuming you will see it is amazing.. as soon as the water starts to dry it’s game over!!! Honestly.. we love ours and use it on all windows, mirrors and shower glass too :) xxx

Hi Kerry thanks for reviewing the Karcher window vac. I did have the same one but it died a death and haven’t got round to replacing it yet. I did think when I first got it, what a great idea the spray bottle was, but then it started to leak everywhere, BUT having seen this video, and seen the awesome idea of the wash mitt (which funnily enough, I recently put in my husbands car wash kit) I shall be pinching that back and using it as you have suggested once I get my new Karcher! 😂 Just another little tip, add a drop of vinegar to your washing up liquid/water solution 😊

Did I recieve a nock out product? Mine wv6 has this yellow plastic line on top that makes HORRIBLE squeking sound and it leaves a LOT of water on the window which is the dam point of window vac. So I tried to remove this yellow plastic, but aperantly u need it, but now I cant get it in cause the plastic is too soft to push it back in. Like I am really pissed and dont know what to do, just want to throw it away from a rage

The problem I'm encountering with the device is related to its reservoir. The silicone seal inside the reservoir ends up swelling. Additionally, when I empty the water, I can't put it back in place, forcing me to buy a whole new reservoir since the seal isn't sold separately. This is one of the major flaws of the device, and I'm surprised not to see this issue mentioned anywhere.
