Ich empfehle Kärcher Akku Staubsauger. Weil es is von lokalen Herstellung und kann man bequem Ersatz teile via Amazon kaufen.

The cordless vac is great for small messes but it's not great for any level of deep cleaning. I use it daily more like a carpet compatible broom than a vacuum. Notice I said I use it daily, that's where it comes in handy, because it's easy to grab and go. If you have strictly hard floors it would be a good replacement. With carpet, no way will it replace a proper vac, but it might be a nice addition for daily maintenance. As for brands. I had a Dyson v11 and I would NEVER buy it again. It was complete crap and lasted just over a year before it stopped running consistently, and that's after I had to make a new wheel mount for the beater bar because the wheels are held on with like 1mm of plastic. For reference I design and 3d print a lot of things and I would NEVER design a product with the shit support that wheel was held on with. I have had pretty good luck with the Karcher that replaced it but the battery life is.... ok. I tend to find it dead a lot more than I would like when I go to use it. Partly because it doesn't really have dock, you have to plug it in and sometimes it doesn't get plugged in. That's more a me problem, with a full charge it has pretty good battery life, more than enough to do any apartment I have lived in. The Karcher also is pretty easy to fully disassemble for cleaning (although it's kind of a hidden feature that so many parts just unscrew/unclip).

Karcher WD3, wij hebben 2 konijnen die permanent in de rui zijn en hun hooi overal verspreiden. Dit monster werkt echt kei goed hiertegen. Voordeel is dat je 'm ook voor natte dingen kan gebruiken en dat 'ie tegen een stootje kan.

Karcher WD3, Wet & Dry. Best one that's served me well for long. Had a Eureka Forbes one previously which went dead in under a year.

They've service centers all around Kerala. I've never had any problems with all these years of using my Karcher products, got a pressure washer and that vacuum. Just Google them and you can get their addresses. For longevity and product quality I'd recommend them. They're in an affordable range, check them out and see if it suits for your use.

Get a Karcher WD 3 or WD4 as well as a robot vacuum. You will then have something that can remove the dust off the floors effectively (Robots) and you can vacuum the walls and other parts with the Karcher. Both together will come in the price of one Dyson. Even if you're tired, the robot will clean off the floor. I vacuum the robots filter and dust box with the Karcher, lol.

We have a Dyson and a Karcher shop vac and honestly both my wife and I just go straight for the shop vac, it’s upright on casters so it moves easily, has a huge bag volume, ridiculous vacuum power and is wet/dry capable which is great There’s a range of them available but we have a WD3 and love it

I've got the smaller WD3 and that thing is amazing. I've sucked up rubble with it, used it inside and out, and one time sucked up enough water, it was spraying out the back... It didn't care. Still working fine. Couldn't recommend it more highly.

Karcher WD3, bought from Lulu. Its been 6 years, working fine. Also all the industrial vacuum cleaners at Lulu are of the same brand, that was also a reason i bought mine. Excellent performance so far and easy to clean.
