Which pressure washers do you guys use??

[rich83]

Im going to be buying over the next month or so, so I'm wondering which ones you guys have and how you rate them?

[Hurdy]

Karscher works well for me.

Nilfisk after reading on here.
Bloody brilliant IMHO.
Got it from Argos as they were the cheapest and I don't think I paid for it for six months due to their 0% on anything.

I paid £125 though.
I fill the bottle with Valet Pro Orange Pre Wash and it foams up like a treat not sure if same as a lance but it looks the same when it goes on.
Apparently the pumps are metal too, the Karcher are plastic I think.

Dont forget to mention which model please... theres about 1000 karchers

Mines about 20 years old and still stripping paint going strong.

Had 2 karcher 3.99's which were very powerful but both packed in after ~1.5 years. On to a Nilfisk C130 or something like that and it seems to produce better foam through my brass lance. Same pressure, more flow per minute

Ive got a knackered old Karcher that just keeps going. I bought it from Autoperfection back in 2009 iirc. Only paid £40 inc P&P, and they had already used for god knows how long. Its indestructable.

I have a Karcher, had it ages but never use it cos its a pile of poo that pulses rather than powers. If you lived closer you could have it

Fancy trading it for some of my CDs?

I got for £90 from Amazon around winter 2010. Works fantastically.

Depending on your access, I'd also recommend shelling out for an extension hose. My PW now sits in the garage and I just move the hose and lance around the car.

Not a bad idea that.

I have just emailed Nilfisk about getting the hose real that sits in between the handle.

Karcher K6.85. Not sure they make it anymore...

Apparently a complete waste of time according to one mate who has this. It comes on the c130.

[rich83]

Seems like a good price at argos for that Nilfisk... amazon want 200.
