¹ The Kobold VK7 is the quietest cordless vacuum, emitting an all-time low 78 DB on carpet and 79 DB on hard floors. ² Kobold’s earlier model, the VB100, has a charging time of up to 3 hours, and top competitor brands have a charge time of up to 5 hours. ³ When using performance level 1. ⁴ Motor rotates up to 95,000 times per minute, or 1,500 times per second, a single point on the outer edge of the blower wheel moves at a speed of around 480 km per hour. ⁵ The VK7 is the quietest cordless vacuum cleaner in its category with a 78 dBA sound power level. It also remains relatively silent while the performance mode is activated. ⁶ The battery also contains self-cooling material that prolongs the runtime and prevents automatic switch-off due to high temperature. The optional spare battery does not only mean double runtime, but also a longer lifetime which is outstanding in the category as most battery-operated vacuum cleaners have a built-in battery which results in having to throw the complete vacuum cleaner away when the battery is worn down. ⁷ Based on average household usage. ⁸ When using medium level for vacuuming and mopping simultaneously. ⁹ The Kobold Universal, Universal Soft and Dry-Cleaning Cloths are made of high quality microfibres, more than 600km of microfibre yarn are processed in each cloth.

Enjoying using my new 2 in 1 vacuum and mop. Great machine, excellent features and attachments and so handy that it vacuums and mops at the same time, it a real timesaver.
Very good
I’m disappointed the battery does not last very long.
Thanks for your review Ann. We are sorry to hear you are disappointed with the battery life. We'll have one of our team reach out to discuss this issue with you.
Love using this vacuum. Cleaning the house is so much easier now with the vacuum floor wash attachment. The bed is cleaner using the bed attachment as we have 2 dogs that sleep on the bed. Wonderful product.
