which pressure washer are you guys using?

[clk320x]

Nilfisk C120 with 20m extension hose. I’ve been lazy and had someone else wash my cars for the last few months though.

Mine is well over 100 hours - my wife loves playing with pressure washers and is forever cleaning driveways, paths, fences, patios etc.

Lucky you.......

I bought a K4 from the outlet and it is as new. It is worth taking out the extended cover for £11 though just in case.
As above I also replaced the hose for a 10m one from ebay for around £15-20 so I can cover the whole car(s) without having to move the PW.

On outlet... that was a good deal for a K4. which outlet? I'd be interested in one of those.

Karscher outlet! I got my "package opened" extension hose for about 50% of retail.

Was looking at thread sizes and various connections (as you do) and got caught in a karcher thread and stumbled across it lol.

I've had a kranzle if you read the original price. You are paying for quality with the kranzle mine was over £700. It was an awesome bit of kit and worked well on a daily basis as a mobile valeter back in the day. Near the end it ended up having problems. Some valvessel went which where over £80 then the head gasket went so in the end I was tired of paying the high prices for parts so I sold it as spares in the end. I don't warrant paying that now as it's not going to be a washer in daily use earning a living. Don't get me wrong kranzle are the dogs but I've heard from the lads off dw forum that the nifisk are a good washer. One of my musts from the next washer is a good quality hose with a decent length.

Kranzle K10 for me. Replaced my trusty Karcher 620M. The kranzle seems a great machine.

I've still got the Karcher, so if someone wants it they're welcome to have it FOC. It's got a faulty pressure switch which is a common issue. I've replaced it before, but thought I'd treat myself to a Kranzle, so it's just sitting there. The 620M is when karcher were making good quality machines with all metal motors.

I would take that off your hands mate

Ok its yours. I'm working away atm for a couple of weeks. When I'm back I'll get it packaged up for you. Also has the hose and lance etc which you can have. I hope its just the pressure switch as that is what failed before. It's worth saving I reckon as they are a decently built machine, even if you can use it for spares or something.

Karcher K2, cheap and cheerful. Owned for 10 years+ with no issues. Sounds like a beast though and vibrates more than a rampant rabbit.

 

[dharmy]

karcher K4 eco bought extension hose as well, i use mine with a water butt with filter and its brill works really well i feel the pressure is better than if i run it of mains tap had it about 5 years no issues

Dare I ask, how you know the difference.

My wife told me lol

I'm currently two years into one of these - Nilfisk-e160

I think my last one got left in unheated shed at about -10 outside temp and froze up, which destroyed it.

It does about 100 sq m of patio areas about four times a year plus occasional car cleaning. Good machine, long hose, wouldn't want anything less powerful though.

I use a Nilfisk which I bought from Argos, after just over a year the pressure adjuster on the lance didn't work.
I rang Nilfisk and the nice lady sent me a brand new lance free of charge!
She didn't even ask for the original one back.
The Nilfisk also came with a patio cleaner which I have found to be brilliant for the driveway as well as the patio.
I did have to buy a car cleaning adaptor nozzle from Amazon which was only about a tenner but I think it was tight fisted not to include that in the original contents.
