Pressure washers

[littlemissnaughty]

Hit me with your ideas on what to buy....

I live in a low water pressure area and will be needing it for snow foam, and general cleaning...

I will buy the snow foam lance from shinerama as they seem to do all that...

Ideally one also that is easily portable too...

Cheers all in advance x

Nilfisk centinal 85 quid from homebase if the offers still on , long hose all accesories and works well , I have same lance as above bought at the detailng day well impressed with both

 

[Tony Hunter]

That centinal looks good for the price, I like the hose reel built in.

Wait for homebase to do another 15% off weekend and get the nilfisk centinnal, it's basically a C120. use any nectar points and get it cheaper still.

If you don't want to wait look round for the cheaper C110, works fine with a snow lance and can be found for £50/£60

The snowfoam can be found a little cheaper, especially if you use a discount code, not sure if shinerama do one but you can get 7.5% off as a CS member through i4detailing.co.uk and there service is always great

Those nilfisk/karcher things are gubbins. I used one the other day at a mates and I could have pissed harder. Get yourself down machine mart.

 

[Mr R.]

Ive just bought a lance, same as you have posted but from ebay £22 + post.

Before you buy a lance you will need to know what jet wash you're going to buy.

My Kranzel makes the karcher look and feel like a kids toy. .
Thats when I bloody use it.

[littlemissnaughty]

This looks like the one then....

Now for the lance....

Knowing my luck I will buy the wrong one... Lol

 

[littlemissnaughty]

Anymore powerful and you'll cause damage.

I so miss having a commercial hot wash

 

[-J-]

I use a Nilfisk 120, very good bit if kit and more than enough power.

If you fancy pushing the boat out though there's a group buy over on DW-

I think I will buy that pressure washer this week. Is that the best available for the money?

I assume this is the correct snow lance foam? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Snow-Foam...Garden_PowerTools_SM&var=&hash=item417548a04a

Any advice is appreciated

 

[Jaff.]

the ones we have in work spit flames!

beat that!

 

[Daniel]

Why do you think I put the pipe on there!

 

[Jaff.]

Ha fair point!

Theres 3 in my work though >P

and none of them are deemed dangerous enough by work to have covers over the zorst lol

This what i'll need?

 

[MarkCup]

Small bump here...my Nilfisk Centenial lost pressure so I went and picked up a Karcher K4 Compact from Homebase.

Works well enough...but only comes with a 6m hose...or so I thought and so the box says.

The one I got actually came with a 9m hose despite what the box says.

So if anyone's thinking of getting a pressure washer this may be worth a punt just for the 'free' long hose included...and if it's not you can always take it back same day.

 

[bigup7]

would love a Kranzle and even though i wash the car weekly i still cant justify a £450 pressure washer over a £80 nilfisk!
