Suprab1 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 all these types are pretty much the same tbh guys,unless you spend a bit more and get something with a brass pump then it really isnt going to be up to much How do you know if you've got a brass pump?

TopgunTT Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 So is it a standard diameter hose that fits to the pressure washer just like a garden hose? My local tesco is selling the karcher 2.56 deluxe half price from £200 down to £100, So tempted to buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprab1 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Thats what i think i was fishing for, The distance from the the tap to the pressure washer. I never realised you had to supply your own hose. Yeah its only an ordinary garden hose so could be cut to suit if its a bit long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprab1 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Ok just read this on another site. I have a Karcher electric I bought 2 years ago...it is a 1750 PSI ..I use it weekly for washing my truck and a fleet od Dump Trucks and Equipment with...I bought it as a reconditioned one and it has worked great for me....I have a Honda gas one..but the Karcher is lite and easy to put in the truck...The trick to having a washer last is to run the pump cleaner and lube thru it once in awhile....I think it makes a big difference in maintaining the life of them.... I've never heard of this cleaner/lube stuff does any one else use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probrox Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Nilfisk C120 - Ali motor, less prone to failure than plastic ones (Karcher) I have one, from Screwfix and it's mentally powerful! Thats the one I went for in the end. Got it on Amazon with accessory package (patio cleaner, brush and drain jetting hose) for £99 delivered. I can't comment on the reliability as I haven't had it long, but the power is great. Went a bit mad at the weekend and cleaned the car, the patio, the shed, the windows and pretty much anything else I could find. Then moved on to seeing how destructive high pressure water can be to garden ornaments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
