Product information and benefits

The Kärcher WD 3 P is designed to streamline your DIY projects and home maintenance. This machine features an integrated power socket, allowing you to power your tools directly from the vacuum to keep your workspace organised. Delivering 230W of suction power, it is built for the tough jobs that standard vacuums cannot handle, such as clearing sawdust and plaster dust.
