I am torn between two pressure washers. I have always thought Nilfisk were the ones to go with, but at the moment Amazon have a Karcher K4 available at a good price.
Unless you want all the patio cleaner bits mate, you're best off going for this Nilfisk - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nilfisk-12...8&qid=1499769068&sr=1-1&keywords=nilfisk+c120
Same model, flow rate, pressure etc only without the accessories and cheaper :thumb:
I bought this one recently as a replacement for my old Nilfisk c110. I then upgraded the hose to a 15m soft anti kink one from directhoses for £46 so still paid less than the Karcher. It does look a good machine but a lot of the reviews of it said it can have problems with reliability whereas the Nilfisk generally seemed betted made.
I've taken two Karchers back in a year and they replace them for me so can't really get shot of them! My one at the moment has been good so far but I want a Kranzle. Heard good things about the Nilifisk's though so that might be your best bet.
The K4 is at a good price so can't complain about that. Just want to make you aware if you didn't know already that the price is for the K4 without patio stuff etc.
If you go for the Karcher and do want the extras the cost goes up and they aren't on a deal so may be worth looking around or seeing if it is cheaper to get the machine and specific bits separate.
The picture does indeed show the full kit but under the price there were different options for different packs and £135 was for the machine only (I would've got one myself if it was that good of a deal).
The original link doesn't bring up these options anymore and the price has now gone up to £148. The link below shows the options and the picture changes accordingly where as the original link did seem to show the full package image only.
I've had my Karcher K4 Full Control (home kit) for approx. 3 months now and it's fantastic. I would highly recommend it. No issues yet, as to be expected with it not being very old, but you will be covered by the guarantee.
My previous Karcher K2 premium pressure washer lasted years and was still running as fit as a fiddle but I sold it to subsidise some of the cost of the K4.
P.S. £135 for the home kit was an absolute bargain for anyone that got one
I saw a couple of K4 Full control Home machines at my local John Pye auction yesterday, went for £67 each (a little over £100 with fees). They were brand new, just open box, I wish I'd have gone for one of them now.
