Kärcher WV 1 is an electric window vacuum and squeegee

The Kärcher WV 1 electric window cleaner is a small handheld device that can be used to clean glass, tile, countertops and more. You spray with the included bottle, wipe it with a cloth, and then use the vacuum to suck up all the nasty stuff.

Cleaning windows is not fun. Normal windows are a pain in the ass, but when you’re talking about big sliding glass doors or bay windows, forget about it. You have to spray, wipe, spray, wipe, and sometimes you have to do it a bunch of times because the gunk on the window won’t come off. If you have pets or kids, removing sludge from those windows is pretty much impossible. You will never have them spotless. But there is a smart home tool to help. It’s called the Kärcher WV 1, and it’s both an electric window vacuum and squeegee. But more importantly, it’s a versatile multi-surface cleaner, too. You can use it to clean countertops, mirrors, glass, and beyond.

It’s a small, handheld device that’s lightweight and portable. It weighs just 1.1 pounds and comes with an easily removable dirt container — similar to a vacuum’s dustbin. You soak and wipe the surface with the included spray bottle and microfiber pad, then you use the WV 1 to vacuum all the nasty stuff. It helps remove dirt, grime, excess water, you name it. The head of the WV 1 has a squeegee built-in to lightly swipe the surface of whatever you’re cleaning. Meanwhile, as it’s an electric window vacuum above all, it sucks up everything that gets collected or left behind by that squeegee.

What else can the Kärcher WV 1 electric window vacuum do?

The Kärcher WV 1 electric window vacuum and squeegee isn’t just for windows and glass. It can clean surfaces too, like tables or countertops. Have a big party and get some nasty messes on the counter? Wipe it down with the WV 1 and have it looking spotless and shiny again in no time. It works with glass tabletops, mirrors, shower doors, big glass doors, windows, kitchen tiles, bathroom tiles, even car windows. Whatever surface you’d think it would clean, you probably can. Honestly, it might even be able to handle some messes on tile floors, though if they’re big, you’ll want to use a full-size vacuum and mop instead.

It has a rechargeable battery with a small display to tell you when it needs to be charged. But other than that, it’s pick up and go-friendly. The included spray bottle and microfiber pad help you cover large surfaces faster, which you’ll understand better when you see the entire process in action. Either way, this electric window vacuum is probably something that’s going to be handy in many, many situations.
