What pressure washer under £100?

[Beefmeister]

I've tried the search but today (as usual) it's borked and just keeps telling me about tyre pressures...

Anyhoo, I want a pressure washer, under £100 and have seen this one:

Seems like you get good power - 1500W, lots of accessories and it gets 4.5/5 over 104 reviews.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience of it, or a better option.

It's at least £35 cheaper than a Karcher that isn't as powerful/accessorised. I'm only going to be using it every couple of weeks so it won't get continuous use.

Thanks all.

Pressure washers are terrible for your paint. They blast impurities into it

If you control what goes in, surely that's all that comes out and into your paint?

Anyway, it's for the family wagon and the patio mainly. They're pretty good for foaming the car too, I only used them in the past for applying the soaking foam and giving it a rinse down.

Well, just spoke to Rich Tipper from Perfection Valet (he does the Evo cars and more expensive metal than you can shake a stick at) as I know him.

He says it's absolutely fine to use a sub-1500W pressure washer from 4+ft away, no issues at all. And no disrespect to the collective Internet knowledge of PH, but Rich knows his stuff and has been doing this 15+yrs.

Besides, it's not like I'll be pressure washing a Lambo, it's for a Yeti...
