Third-party reviews

Based on 542 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about WORX WX031.9

  • Fantastic, powerful suction for cleaning dry debris, sawdust, and wet spills
  • Versatile multi-functionality, serving as a wet/dry vacuum and a blower
  • Large-capacity dust bin that holds plenty of rubbish and water
  • Compatible with the [WORX PowerShare System](https://uk.worx.com/20v-cordless-brushless-compact-wet-and-dry-vacuum-cleaner-with-4-0ah-battery-charger-wx031/), allowing you to use existing 20V batteries to save money
  • Compact and lightweight with an included shoulder strap for good portability around the workshop or jobsite
  • Useful for connecting directly to other power tools (like sanders) for dust extraction

What we don't like about WORX WX031.9

  • Filter requires frequent cleaning to maintain peak suction and performance
  • Battery drains quickly in full-power mode, making larger capacity batteries almost a necessity
  • Included shoulder strap is not very comfortable, and the weight can become noticeable over time
  • Sold as 'body only' (or bare tool), meaning batteries and charger must be purchased separately
  • Flexi-hose can occasionally slip out or become clogged with larger pieces of debris
  • Hose length is sometimes too short for deep cleaning inside vehicles

Verdict

The WORX WX031.9 is a 20V cordless wet-dry vacuum and blower featuring a high-efficiency brushless motor that delivers up to 16 kPa of suction power and an airflow rate of 1.1 m³/min. It offers a versatile 2-speed operation, an 8-liter dry dustbin capacity, a 3-liter liquid capacity, a 2-meter extendable hose, and a washable HEPA filter. Main advantages include its portable, 3 kg lightweight design, integrated shoulder strap for effortless carrying, and seamless compatibility with the Worx PowerShare battery ecosystem. However, a notable con is that this specific model (.9) is sold as a bare tool without the required battery or charger included, and its bulky body can make reaching tightly confined spaces somewhat difficult.
