Anyone got one ?

We got one last year and the Mrs loves it.
She went at those flags in the garden for 4 hours today, only pausing to make me a cuppa. The Flags come up like new, she loves it.
My cuppa was nice too.

I have an upright model,was Aldi brand but made by Karcher exclusively for Aldi.

They do the buisness thats for sure but its not worth buying those brush motor types as they don't last long so its the induction motor type to go for if buying one.

I fink all Karcher are induction? kust don't get to close to paintwork as it'll remove it no problem.
Wash the windows with mine but careful not to get the jet near the UPVC frame.
The lances give a different force of action.

To do the top ones I get up a step ladder and the jet is powerful enough to clean em,the bottom ones if you want to was the UPVC as well you have to stand at least 8ft to 10ft away so as not to damage the plastic....the dirt that accumulates around it is unbelievale when you jet wash it.
Use the soap wash bottle if yer got one with it?

I have one, works well with the lance and the whirrly brush
To use detergent just pull the tube out and stick it in a bucket
which has detergent in.
