Wacker neuson WP expert review

Overview

The Wacker neuson WP is a lightweight forward-plate compactor built for soil and paving jobs. Powered by a 3.5 kW Honda GX160 engine, it delivers smooth operation and reliable force for small worksites.

Pros Reliable Honda engine, low fuel use, built-in water tank for asphalt work.
Cons Limited compaction depth and smaller plate size restrict output on larger projects.

Efficiency

The 3.5 kW Honda GX160 produces 15 kN at 98 Hz, ideal for granular soils. Low fuel burn and stable vibration make it a cost-effective performer.

Usability

Foldable handle, lift eye, and anti-vibration grips enhance comfort. Maintenance is quick with easy access to key components.

In Comparison

Lighter and cheaper than the Dynapac DFP, with slightly less compaction energy but better handling and upkeep costs.

Final Verdict

Simple, durable, and affordable — the WP is built for light-duty, everyday compaction without overcomplicating ownership.
