Karcher DS 5500

Best Performance Amongst DS Water Filter Vacuum Cleaner – Prior to DS5500, I've been using vacuum cleaner about more than a decade ago. With evolution of time and new inventory, bought DS5500 as recommended by retail dealer and found it not only value for money but also its good performance. When DS5500 broke down, it is hard to find in Singapore scene, I bought a DS6000 mediclean of similar functions as DS5500 out of no choice. Its function like suction outperform DS6000. The settlement of dust and or any particles like human's and pet's hair is like a piece of small cloth and not in loose form floating in the water basin. hair in the water bin Its suction hose near the holder grip gets torn easily. Need a tape for seal breakage linning to prevent lost of air when vacuuming.

Good – I owned a Karcher 5500 bought almost 10 years ago. Served me well all this while. Today the tip of the hose where it is connected to the body was broken due to an unfortunate mishap. While seaching for an authorize dealer for a replacement in my country Malaysia led me to this website. Cleans well. Slightly bulky but then again I guess that is the design needed for its capability. Expensive Hepa filters.

Excellent – I live on a farm that we are also renovating and most of the house is floating floors or bare concrete. This vacuum has not missed a beat and does not loose suction as all the dust and dirt settles in the water. The water catchment is the best part as when you empty there is no dust, just throw in the garden and rinse out. Does not loose suction in dusty conditions, easy to clean. Prefer my dyson on the mats, as the suction on the head makes it hard to push over the carpet,this maybe eliminated if you buy the turbo head (which I don't have)

Excellent – Brillaint product. Highly recommended. The filter must be kept clean or it looses suction, but that is easy and doesn't have to be done too often. Excellent suction and no odours or dust coming from the air exhaust. Requires cleaning out of the water container within a day or so after every use, which can be a bit of a drag.
