Title: HELP Pressure Washers
Post by: scooba on December 15, 2013, 07:15:30 am
Firstly sorry for starting a new post but

Could anyone please who has use advice what model exactly I should buy my preference would be from a user off the machine they suggest.I want to buy a decent pressure washer after having two Karchers fail I'm sort off wanting to buy a reliable machine .

I have been advised Karcher are sort of throw away cheap crap unless you go up the model range to a machine starting with 5 or 6 , The nilfisk range seam pretty bomb proof with 24 month warranty double the karcher , now Kranzle have been put in the mix.

If anyone can advise me like Mate you need the Nilsffisk 150 with the snow foam gun model ref ? you will be sorted and buy it from Browns or such like it would be so appreciated TIA

Have inquired about this recently myself and from what I have read, Nilfisk is the way to go!

Hi I had half decided to buy a higher end Karcher but no one has a good word for them I have enquired on several sites. Sort off decided to go with Nilfisk p150.2-10 x-tra it cost around £295 and has a 2 yr guarantee.


For what its worth after Googling how do I fix my Karcher and wasting two hours on it I actually have thrown it in my Bin Fooking Piece of $hit ! labour saving device my ar$e

Nilfisk and Kranzle are more reliable than Krapcher!

Is there any chance of the Kranzle group buy being reactivated soon!

I think on detailing world  Elite ran a group buy with great prices, I spoke with Alex at Elite and at first I thought a group buy maybe on for early this year but the last mail I received it seamed unlikely. From what I have read the Kranzle is the next thing you buy after a Karcher or Nilfisk , like you move onto if you are a professional valeter. I being tight have searched every where and the deals are tiny on Kranzles but there are plenty off deals on both Karcher and Nilfisk  and from my reading if you buy a Professional Karcher they are really good and the bigger Nilfisk as well , So you pay your money and take your choice.

What Kranzle are you looking to buy mr Daddykool

Ive been using a Karcher K2 for over a year now with no faults whatsoever. Was impressed at the power for a £90 washer!

Trouble is if it does break you just throw it and get another , our K2 has been leaking for months and only just gave up on us last week .
