Kärcher OC Handheld Compact Portable Low-Pressure Cleaner 1.328-120.0

Spot-cleaning a sofa cushion or rinsing mud off a bike after a trail ride no longer means dragging out a full-size pressure washer. The Kärcher OC Handheld Compact is a battery-powered low-pressure cleaner that fits in one hand, making it quick to tackle small messes on upholstery, car interiors, shoes, pets, and garden tools.

Good to know

The integrated water filter helps prevent debris from clogging the nozzle, and the flat jet nozzle delivers a controlled spray for delicate surfaces. For best results, fill the tank with clean water or a recommended cleaning solution before each use. The IPX4 rating means it can withstand splashes from any direction, so light outdoor use is safe.
