That's cool - i just tried the code, and it makes it GBP 168.30

The only irritation is that one does not seem to have the high pressure hose reel like the others in the K5 range - it seems like nothing, but its always the high pressure line that gets caught on everything all the time, or trodden on, or bent...

But that unit is a fraction of the price of anything else of the same spec available off-the-shelf, so may well be the thing to go for.

Thank you.

Pressure washer is not some thing I use very often 20 times a year to wash bikes car patio drive etc but have spares of all of the hose gun and plenty of ends ajustables single pressure types all from broken systems if I see one in a skip or out the back of a house I knock and ask if it's ok to take it half the time they say yes that's fine half the time they say hold on I got all the attachments you can have as well I don't need them but did not want to throw them out

I'm going out today to buy one. I'll look in aldi and lidle, but I suspect I might end up with this -

It's got almost the same stats as the karcher from wicks, but is £90 as opposed to £170.

The wicks one is an oddball. Its a karcher, but there's no mention of it anywhere else on the web.

The Stanley unit has an Italian pump in it that seems less propiotory than the karcher stuff. Basically it's just Stanley re-branding.

I don't know about fittings. I only ever use a lance, but I do have a curved lance for car sills, which I may not be able to find an adapter for.

decided to buy Nilfisk C-120 Bar Pressure Washer. Will test is and tell you if it is good enough.

I've had one of those for about 4 years now, only paid about £70 for it with all the attachments including wobble jet and patio cleaner. The only thing about it is it has developed about a 5 second lag between pulling the trigger and the motor kicking in but I can live with that till it packs up altogether.

Just got the titan from screwfix for all the times I'll use it it performed ok far better than scrubbing flagstones with a deck scrubber, karcher are overpriced and under perform unless you get the k5 or 7

bought a petrol power washer, Honda copy engine..... less than £200, still starts first time and works fine......use it for cleaning tractors at least 1'nce per week.......
thought if I get 2 years outta it I'd be happy...now 8 years old..........

Same here Frank, less than £200 and still going strong many years later. It gets some serious use.
