Draper 230V Wet and Dry Vacuum Cleaner with Stainless Steel Tank, 15L, 1250W

Lightweight, Compact and Ready for Anything – Stainless Steel Wet and Dry Cleaning in Its Most Portable Form

The Draper WDV15SS is the most compact model in the stainless steel wet and dry vacuum range – a trim, lightweight machine that punches above its size with a 1250W motor, blower function and stainless steel tank. At just 4.5kg with a 15-litre capacity, it's the easiest of the range to carry, store and manoeuvre, making it a natural fit for smaller workshops, home DIY, garden clean-up and garage tidying where a large-capacity machine would feel like overkill.

Stainless Steel Where Others Cut Corners

At this size and price point, most manufacturers default to plastic. The WDV15SS uses a stainless steel tank – the same material found across the larger models in Draper's wet and dry range. That means the same resistance to impact, moisture and chemical exposure that makes stainless steel the right choice for workshop and outdoor environments, in a machine small enough to tuck away on a shelf or in the boot of a van.

Wet and Dry Pick-Up – One Machine for Every Mess

Whether it's sawdust from a weekend project, mud tracked in from the garden, water from a spilled bucket, or debris from clearing out the garage, the WDV15SS handles wet and dry material equally well. The 15-litre tank is well sized for typical home and light workshop tasks – large enough to get the job done without constant emptying, compact enough that emptying is quick and manageable when needed.

Blower Function for Clearing Before You Vacuum

The built-in blower reverses airflow through the hose to push dust and debris out from tight spaces, corners, garden equipment and workshop machinery – clearing material into the open before the vacuum collects it. It's a simple feature that makes a genuine difference when cleaning in awkward spots.

Practical Design for Everyday Use

Despite its compact footprint, the WDV15SS includes the same practical features found on the larger models in the range:

• Castors for smooth movement across garage floors, workshops and outdoor surfaces
• Carry handle for lifting between locations, up steps or into a vehicle
• On-board tool storage keeps accessories organised and always with the machine
• Multiple accessories included for versatility across different surfaces and tasks
• 5-metre cable with approved plug for useful reach without an extension lead

At 4.5kg – the lightest in the stainless steel range – it's genuinely easy to pick up and move without effort.

Where the WDV15SS Fits in the Range

The WDV15SS is the entry-level model in Draper's mains-powered stainless steel vacuum lineup – ideal for lighter, more occasional use where portability and compact storage matter more than maximum capacity. Step up to the WDV20BSS for a slightly larger 20-litre tank at a similar weight, or to the WDV30SSB and WDV30SSPA for full 30-litre workshop capacity, with the SSPA adding an integrated power take-off socket for automatic dust extraction alongside power tools.

Key Features:

• Stainless steel tank for durability beyond standard plastic alternatives
• 1250W motor with 15kPa vacuum pressure and 25 L/s airflow
• 15-litre capacity – well sized for home, DIY and light workshop use
• Wet and dry pick-up capability
• Blower function for clearing hard-to-reach debris before vacuuming
• On-board tool storage keeps accessories organised and accessible
• Castors for easy movement across all surfaces
• Carry handle for lifting and transport
• Multiple accessories included
• 5m cable with approved plug
• Lightweight at just 4.5kg – the most portable in the stainless steel range
• No power take-off socket – simple, straightforward standalone operation

Technical Specifications:

How does the WDV15SS compare to the WDV20BSS?
Both models share the same 1250W motor, stainless steel tank, blower function and core feature set. The WDV20BSS offers a larger 20-litre tank for extended use between empties and is marginally heavier at 4.6kg. The WDV15SS is the more compact choice where storage space is limited or maximum portability is the priority.

Is 15 litres enough capacity for workshop use?
For light to moderate workshop tasks, occasional DIY projects and home and garden clean-up, 15 litres is a practical working capacity. For sustained workshop use or heavy debris collection, the WDV30SSB with its 30-litre tank would be a more appropriate choice.

Does the WDV15SS pick up liquids?
Yes – it is a full wet and dry vacuum capable of collecting liquids as well as dry debris and dust.

Can I connect a power tool to this vacuum?
The WDV15SS does not include a power take-off socket, so it cannot automatically start and stop with a connected power tool. For automatic tool-linked dust extraction, the WDV30SSPA includes this feature.

What accessories are included?
The WDV15SS is supplied with multiple accessories for versatility across different surfaces and tasks. Refer to the product packaging for the full list. All compatible accessories use the standard 35mm fitting – see Draper's spares listings for replacement and additional parts.
