Are they any good??
Reason i ask is they have 50% off all pressure washers at the moment and i was looking at this one
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_372833_langId_-1_categoryId_165689
Only query is would snow foam lance and other stuff fit it like they do Karchers or am i just better off buying a Karcher
Cheers

Take it from the stunned silence that they aren't that good
-
I reckon there'll be a bank holiday offer end of this month at places like B & Q where you can bag yourself a Karcher :wink:
off topic, heard you're in the Forces, what do you do? Royal Engineers myself.

Yup Gib

I read somewhere that halfords pressure washere are rebadged karchers. Not sure how true this is. FWIW I use a crappy k2.02 the size of a portable stereo and it works fine with snow foam lance. Its probably 5-10 years old but works like a charm.
-
Personally I think it would be just fine. Just because it doesnt have a big common brand name on it, doesnt make it rubbish.
-
That should be fine mate all you would need to do if you already have a foam lance just buy a new connector for it all you got to do is have a look at the type of connector thats already onit then match it up with one of the ones on the following link simples

Or just pick up the phone and give them a call im sure its quite a common question but if in doubt you could always buy this Karcher i got one the weekend and i had a extra £20 off at the till

But regardless of what one you go for i highly recomend getting a extension as Stealwolf mentioned in this thread

Cheers Folks
@Ben - the one you list from Tesco they have for the same price in B&Q.
The thing that was tempting me towards the Halfrauds one was the fact it had a 7m hose on it already.
Think im gonna hold off till the end of the month to see if there are any Bank Holiday deals.

As in the £79.99 price? Plus dont forget you also get 198 clubcard points lol! every little helps
-
Well not Quite £79.99 it was £80.04 :P Although that might have been a Bank Holiday offer as it is £104 on the B&Q website.
Plus i dont have a Tesco clubcard and i never will have one so no need for points :P :P
