Comparison with our old one.

It’s a bit unfair but our old washer was a Kew and it was 22 years old. Never gave any bother was not overworked I hasten to say but it became an uneconomical repair so decided to have a change. So bought the Kew first thing I noticed was the weight so much lighter. But the disturbing thing so much plastic. The Kew was an old tank of a thing could take some abuse, the karcher I’m not so sure, but early days and I’ve just got it we shall see. The saying you get what you pay for and at £99 I’ve got just that so no complaints. Have tried it out and the power is a lot weaker ( but it is the basic model ) and the Kew was not, so I am wrong to compare but can’t help it as it’s what I’m used to. Will it do my job I think so as at 70 all I want to do now is wash the car and clean the pathway, so maybe it will suffice. Time will tell. However a warning for me I bought over the internet if I had been in a retailer I would not have bought this model I would have bought a more robust and professional unit, every day a school day. It was also because we are under house arrest via this virus thing I could not got out and look at various models. However the deal is done, Halfords gave me a good price and delivered it on time well done them. No complaints about Karcher or Halfords but I think I should have waited, we shall see.

well known brand, but quality has deteriated

for a tool the Karcher pressure washers are very fragile, this is my 3rd, previous 2 went the same way, sudden loss of pressure & water pouring out of the machine for no apparent reason.
if this one goes the same way, then it will be the last I buy & I will buy a cheaper machine, because there will be no good reason to pay the extra money to buy a karcher.Read full review...

Has its limitations

The product is light to handle and is good from the point that it is easy to use. The manual is not very informitive but the machine is user friendly. The mains plug is not good from the point that you can it use it without an extension when using a standard outside protected mains socket. Also if you want to extented the hose etc. or use any accessory that you had from another pressure washer it will not fit. Therefore you are limited to Karcher accessories.Read full review...

Addictive...

I would group this product, along with my Al-ko silent power 5000 shredder, (which no longer seems available?) as being a really addictive bit of kit to use as it is very effective at cleaning drives. It will do most other cleaning jobs where high pressure water is all that is required but be careful on loose brick pointing as it'll also remove that! It has a gentle option on the nozzle but that reduces the fun as well as the water pressure. Brilliant little toy, not at all bulky but very effective and enormously therapeutic to use. I'd thoroughly recommend it to the NHS to prescribe for the relief of stress. The concrete drive looks like new... even after quite a few decades of grime. Right, enough of this, what can I power wash next...Read full review...

Feels cheap and a little weak.

Very flimsy handle and wheels, feels cheap. Comes with 2 nozzles that really should have been all incorporated into one, it's waste of time changing them when other brands have one adjustable wand.>Biggest gripe is the power, other brands, in fact cheaper brands, seem more powerful. This doesn't have a kick and I need to have the nozzle right up to the decking to get a good clean.Read full review...

Generally a good robust product at a reasonable price

Generally a good robust product at a reasonable price. The C-Clip design is a step back due to it being awkward to use and a bit flimsy, flew off a few times so easy to loose. The old type quick release system was a lot better.Read full review...

Superb in every single respect.

I bought this machine to replace an "off brand" washer that went on the Fritz about a week after the warranty expired. I decided that, as with most that bags, especially tools ... one should buy a top-quality quality item. As with shoes, buy the best you can afford ... by far the cheapest in the long run. So I bought this Karcher washer. Fantastic machine! Compact, very powerful, and it was just that bit more expensive than cheap machines. I know it will last for years ... and will therefore have been much cheaper in real terms than the one it replaced.Read full review...

Lightweight and perfect for jobs at home

Great pressure washer. We've done all the garden fences before painting and a mossy wall. Light and easy to carry around. Not too big. Very happy with it.

Effective and up to date.

This is my second Karcher - the first wore out after long use. I have bought the new equivalent and I am pleased with the improvements that have been made. There is more power. More importantly the lance design has been improved and the cleaning process is quicker and seems to be just as effective. I am happy to recommend this lower power washer - which I expect will meet my needs well for many years.Read full review...

A great buy

I was apprehensive about buying a refurbished pressure washer, but it comes with a years warrenty, packed in original box with the attachments to get you up & running, though it doesn't come with the patio cleaner or liquid like the picture shows, I didn't expect it to, I have that attachment from a previous one that packed up on me, but it works great at an excellent price.Read full review...
