Firstly I am going to admit that we already had a Karcher pressure washer, which was passed down to us via the in laws when they upgraded. This machine is around 9 years old, so I know that Karcher Pressure washers are designed to last.
As part of out Karcher Clean Ambassador program we have been sent a Karcher K 4 Compact Home Pressure Washer to review, which is perfect for this time of year and cleaning the car and garden.
We liked:
- The patio kit and cleaner – this is brilliant. One of the things we hated about cleaning our patio previously was the spray and splash of muck when you used the lance on its own. The patio cit stops the water and muck going everywhere. it takes a little getting used to, but it dislodges all the much, but leaves it loose on the patio.
- You can attach the machine to a water butt, perfect it you live in a hosepipe ban area
- The dirtblaster lance which provides up to 50% greater cleaning power than a standard high pressure lance, it does this my sort of spinning the water.
- It comes with a three year guarantee
- It is compact, so doesnt take up too much space in the garage and is lightweight so I can carry it easily
- It has storage areas for the tools.
We weren’t keen:
- It is an investment piece at £232.09, but will save you loads on car wash costs and cleaning products.
It sounds really good and we are looking for something like this
Would really love one of these as they are so useful!
Sounds like it would be great for cleaning off the winter grime from the caravan!
We borrowed one of these from a neighbour before we put the house on the market last year! It did a fantastic job on our patio and decking, really brought it up lovely and clean with minimal effort! My husband did not want to give it back!
Good to know that they’re built to last! It’s the sort of gadget we desperately need in this house!
seen a load of people talking baout these but my husband has had them and they break real easy , saying that he uses his for his work x
I like that you can attach it to a water butt, that’s a really nice feature 🙂
i never tried pressure wash before, would be nice to try out myself to see if it works out for us
This looks so good we need one of these and a steam cleaner asap! x
We love ours! So impressed with the cleaning abilities!
So tempted! Our neighbour had their drive pressure washed today and so I asked how much it would be for ours and he quoted £100! I think of the Karcher as expensive but at £100 to pressure wash the driveway it might actually be a bargain!
It might be expensive but looks like it does the job x x
oh i’d love one of these! need to find some spare pennies 😉
I LOVE a pressure washer, and think there is nothing to beat it for outdoor cleaning. As this is no longer my area, have been trying to bring OH around to the same thinking.
Ooh I do love the sound of these Jen, JD would love doing the car with one too! What a brilliant addition to the home, great review too 🙂
I have been thinking about buying one of these for some time. It looks like a fantastic bit of equipment and my partner would love it for the car.
The husband would love one of these!
I really want a pressure washer, just for me to play with! lol
We could do with one of these for the cars, looks like a great cleaner to have x
We have a Karcher steam cleaner mop and LOVE it. I think their products are ace x
I’d love one of these
I so need to be an ambassador for these people lol!! I could really put their products to good use round this house!!! This looks fab…. (and I can’t go without mentioning the dog… CUTE!!) x
We’ve never tried a pressure washer but I know my husband would love this. x
