Looking to purchase a pressure washer for around the house for cleaning paths etc and also washing the car. Would like something new and would spend around £100-£200, any recommendations? Cheers |

Last one was 450 euro Karcher and same story..... So cheap for me any more.... Even lidl or aldi would do they offer a 3 year no questions warranty, even the top brands can' t or won't do that. |

I've always used Karcher and only bought when on sale. Never had a problem with them. Don't know what they sell for in your parts though. Also depends on size and pressure required. |

Ya here to many happy hours cleaning you new place... and more so to enjoying it when it all done.. Just one thing be mindful that. with Amazon, you are not purchasing from a physical store where it can be returned or repaired, It a bulky item for delivery and if it has to be returned for what ever reason it might be hassle to do so..... but here's hoping you will never have that problem. |

I'm a time served electrician of nearly 20 years so I should be fine when/if it comes to repairs! Cheers |

I would stick to the pressure washers with gasoline engine. I have never seen an electric one worth its weight and have owned a couple. This is the one I currently have. http://www.lowes.com/pd_87382-348-20415 ... y_sold%7C1 Although, I do not expect it to last forever. R/ |
