October is the official start to the pollen season, and Sensitive Choice is proud to feature Kobold and their VK7 Cordless Vacuum, Kobold VK7 2-in-1 Mop and Kobold VK7 Complete Cleaning System.
For households living with asthma and allergies, this time of the year is often challenging. Whilst you’re busy trying to stay well and manage allergy symptoms, you might be forgetting what else can be done to minimise allergy triggers within the home. This October, we’re spotlighting the Kobold VK7 as the latest Sensitive Choice approved vacuum cleaner, helping you minimise the impact of allergens in your floors, carpets and surfaces.
The Kobold VK7 is equipped with a HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filter, and this filtration system can trap particles as small as 0.3 microns with 99.99% efficiency. This includes common allergens like dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and even some airborne viruses. Plus, it can help with allergen containment! The sealable dustbin can help prevent those nasty particles from escaping once they’ve been cleaned up and helps contain the allergens during the disposal process, reducing the risk of allergen exposure.

More than just a vacuum, the Kobold VK7 also mops at the same time. This dual functionality saves both time and effort and making your life just a little bit easier. Keep the spring cleaning groove going with this efficient cleaning companion. The vacuum’s advanced filtration system captures 99.99% of allergens, and the mop effectively cleans and sanitises, promoting a healthier living environment.
The convenience of cordless operation, powerful lithium-ion battery, and a user-friendly design ensures an easy and hassle-free cleaning experience.
