  • Our take on the Kärcher SE 3-18 Compact

    The Kärcher SE 3-18 Compact is a battery-powered spray-extraction cleaner for carpets, upholstery and car seats. It runs on Kärcher's 18V Battery Power platform, so it shares packs with the brand's cordless tools, and it weighs about 7.9 lb with a 6.2 ft hose and telescopic tube. Unlike corded carpet cleaners it has no mains cable and no long run time, so it suits spot cleaning and small rooms rather than whole-house deep cleaning. Reviewers like the convenience and portability but note the modest tank, the need to buy the battery separately on some versions, and the limited runtime per charge.

    What reviewers say

    Owners treat it as a convenient spot cleaner rather than a whole-room machine. They praise the cordless freedom and how well it lifts stains from upholstery and car seats, but complain about runtime, the small tank and the extra cost of batteries.

    What people mention
    • Battery runtimeCriticisedOwners say a charge covers only small spot-cleaning jobs, not a full room.
    • PortabilityPraisedReviewers like carrying it to stairs, cars and upholstery without a cord.
    • Cleaning resultsPraisedUsers report it lifts stains and dirt well from carpets and fabric seats.
    • Tank sizeCriticisedThe small dirty-water bin needs emptying often during bigger jobs.
    • Battery costMixedThose without Kärcher 18V packs find buying batteries and a charger adds expense.
    • NoiseMixedSome find it loud enough to notice in quiet rooms, though typical for a wet vacuum.

    Questions and answers

    Does it come with a battery and charger?
    Some versions are sold as a bare tool without battery or charger. Check the listing; it uses Kärcher's 18V Battery Power packs.
    Can it clean a whole carpeted room on one charge?
    No. Runtime suits spot cleaning, stairs and car seats. For full rooms, a corded extractor is more practical.
    Is it a wet and dry vacuum as well?
    Yes. It works as a wet and dry vacuum and as a spray-extraction carpet washer.
    What can I clean with it?
    Carpets, rugs, upholstery, mattresses and car interiors. The hose and telescopic tube help on stairs and in cars.
    How does it compare with a corded carpet cleaner?
    It is lighter and cordless but has less suction and runtime. Corded machines clean larger areas faster.
    How much water does the tank hold?
    The bin holds about 0.77 gal, so expect to empty it often on larger jobs.
    Where is the Kärcher SE 3-18 Compact cheapest?
