Product details

Only our most innovative and powerful products bear the original signature of technology pioneer and company founder Alfred Kärcher as a special design element, such as the FC 8 Smart Signature Line: it is instantly recognisable as the best appliance in its category. On the floor, the battery-powered hard floor cleaner ensures immaculate results - in half the usual time. Thanks to 4-roller technology, it removes all types of wet everyday dirt without the need for pre-vacuuming. LED lights in the cleaning head leave no speck of dust undetected, and special filters ensure good hair pick-up. Our top model is equipped with an attractive LCD display and app connection for smart support with your cleaning tasks. Simple step-by-step instructions on the display quickly tell you everything you need to know about your appliance. A variety of cleaning modes, optimised for different floor types, can be transferred to the appliance via the app and selected on the display. In addition, the water quantity and roller speed can be customised via the app.

Rank 6 out of 9Stiftung WarentestAkkuwischer im TestReleaseJuly 2025

Sounds practical: instead of filling a bucket, dipping the mop in, wringing it out and swinging it across the floor, a cordless mop does the work. The electric mops promise to remove dirt effortlessly thanks to their battery drive. Some of them can even vacuum. Does it really work?...

  • PositiveApp connection
  • PositiveSelf-cleaning mode
  • PositiveConfiguration of individual cleaning modes

    The Kärcher FC 8 enables quick and effortless cleaning of hard floors. Thanks to step-by-step tutorials in the app, operation is very user-friendly and the configuration and favouriting of individual cleaning modes saves the need for constant re-setting. There is also a practical self-cleaning mode, which makes the follow-up work after cleaning much less stressful.
