I bought myself a Karcher K2.14:

I bought it cheap on eBay for around £30 so even if i get 6 months out of it then great! Had it around 6 months and it does the trick perfectly! Does need a longer hose though... (No rude comments please...)  :rolleyes:


life is no fun until you have a 10m hose  :wink:

Yeah when this one kicks the bucket (pardon the pun) i'll get a Nilfisk with a larger hose, but of more importance at the moment is a DA and all the relevant accessories!
