The Dyson V15s won the test field over 400 euros, scoring points in the test above all with the numerous interchangeable nozzles supplied and a very long battery life. However, the fact that the button had to be constantly pressed during use and the fresh water tank had to be refilled comparatively frequently without the appliance letting you know was an inconvenience...

Product details
With the Kärcher FC 4-4 Battery Set 4B-Duo, you can adjust the cleaning position to your floor type and the amount of dirt. For instance, you can increase the speed and water volume for stubborn dirt. Since the electric mop absorbs both dry and wet dirt, there's no need to vacuum before mopping, allowing you to clean faster. The dual water reservoir separates clean and dirty water, ensuring you always use a fresh mop brush. Water consumption is coordinated so that your wastewater tank is only full when the cleaning water tank is empty, preventing unnecessary interruptions in your cleaning task. After use, you can clean the mop brush in the washing machine. With a full battery, you can clean an area of 90 square meters. The cleaning water reservoir has a capacity of 400 milliliters, while the wastewater tank holds 200 milliliters.

The Kärcher vacuum wiper is pleasantly compact and easy to hold. The two wiping rollers run in opposite directions, which should improve the cleaning effect. In the end, however, the result is not quite as convincing. We also find recharging the batteries cumbersome.

- For the most part "very good" cleaning performance, depending on the respective stains: smooth operation of the model
- smooth cleaning of the model (rollers, etc.)
- Fast charging process (T v. 0-100%: 81 min)
- Volumes of the tanks are manageable (400 & 200 ml)
- Occasional problems with the removal of dried stains
The FC 4-4 Battery Set from Kärcher is a hard floor cleaner that is already tempting when you unpack it: After all, it is not only of exquisite quality, but also comes with everything you need for effective floor cleaning; for example, there is also a bottle of a special floor cleaning agent that makes oils, sauces, etc. disappear from the floor...
