Anyone got one. ???
Are they any good.?
-
Yes we have one , found it very good at our previous house where we were troubled with condensation on some of our windows since moving haven't had to use it.
-
We've got 2 believe it or not in our house, and we use them in the shower rooms after use on the glass and walls in the wet bits, to keep them looking brand new.
I is nearly 8 years old and it's really needing replaced, as starting to sound a bit strange.
Other is only 5 years old and still going proper.
Excellent product in my eyes! :y :y
-
Yep , they work well.
Karcher only though , I bought one from Lidl or Aldi and it was dreadful .
-
Yes, confirming the above. Mine came with the extra bits for cleaning the windows.
Does what it claims.

It does no more than a £1 squeegee from Asda. You just have to clean the water from the sill with a squeegee.

I dont get much on the sill, and what i do gets sucked up with the vac.
I was sceptical, but as mine was stupid cheap, I got it anyway. And concede its much better than I thought... ...as long as your surfaces are reasonably flat.

Yes, that's the whole idea ;D No water on the sill with a vac, but plenty with a squeegee. A quick wipe with kitchen roll and it's gone. Pointless bit of kit, the vac.

Dont get suckered into buying the sachets of the Karcher cleaner as it works out very expensive. Instead, you can buy 2 half litre bottles of consentrate that will last forever for about the same price as a box of 10 sachets. just do a search and they will come up

Washing up liquid and a squeegee. How gullible has the world become?

Never get condensation. Probably due to triple glazing throughout. ::) ::) 8)

That's actually down to appropriate airflow in and out of the house.

Condensation is always cause by poor ventilation. Thats why double glazing have airvents in the frames, to allow a small controlled draft, not needed when we were lads due to poorly made frames.
Same applies in cars as well, poor airflow causes misting, hence if you get in your car with a soggy coat on, makes sense if its not a stop start trip to tilt sunroof to aid airflow.

My car windscreen is allways covered in condensation when I go out to start it (and a bugga to clear because the drivers side doesnt blow hot air) so after being parked for 9 months (Covid etc) I decided to get the car on the road for the MOT on the 22nd, so borrowd my Karcher window vac (Long story) and tried it on the windscreen, was an absolute dream to use (just have to go side to side because of the contour) best invest bought in a long time. Very impressed. :y :y

There's a guide for sorting the one sided heating :y
-
Make sure you store them with the switch upwards, they are a pretty poor design and water gets into the switch and electrics killing them

A while back I had to knock on my neighbours door and ask for half of mine back. I was cleaning the upstairs windows on the outside when I pressed the release button instead of the on button. The end came off and the end piece and the dirty water container bounced off my conservatory roof and in to my neighbours garden. ::) ;D
