i had a karcher a couple of years ago... it only lasted me about 12 months and then gave up the ghost... O ring failure

I could still repair it if I could be bothered

long and short of it is this... buy a Nilfisk

If you dont want all the extra's like patio cleaner this is a great deal imo and you can pop down to your local store and pick it up.

I got a Nilfisk c120 about 6 months ago and it's a cracking little machine.

Got a foam lance for it too  :smiley:
