I use a Nilfisk C120, perfect for washing the car, patios, driveway etc.
Picked mine up from Machine Mart a couple of years ago for about £80, well worth it!

I bought this little gem recently

Karcher have shocking quality issues and are utterly overpriced IMO.
I have had good experiences with Argos own brand "challenge extreme" pressure washer.
It has an very powerful induction motor and a very high flow rate per minute
Very good value for money too.... even though it's price has went up recently (possibly due to it's sky high popularity)

Agree on both points. My Argos 'Challenge Extreme' is still going strong after several years of enthusiastic use. I have had good experiences with Argos own brand "challenge extreme" pressure washer.

There's a K'archer authorised repair agent just down the road from us at work, and he makes no secret of the fact that he sees nothing but machines justout of warranty, and also that K'archer change their designs slightly every couple of years, meaning spare parts stop being available.

I have a karcher (785 or something like that - supposedly towards top of domestic range). Crap quality.There's a K'archer authorised repair agent just down the road from us at work, and he makes no secret of the fact that he sees nothing but machines justout of warranty, and also that K'archer change their designs slightly every couple of years, meaning spare parts stop being available.
Plastic handle came off in my hand, due to being woefully inadequate to wind in the hose due to its weight.
This was 2 weeks after buying it.
Another vote for Nilfisk from me. I picked up a super cheap Argos challenge brand one for £29.99 a few years ago and paid something stupid like £3 for 3 years cover. It broke so I paid a little extra when they took it back under the cover agreement and bought a Nilfisk.
The patio cleaner it came with was very impressive too.
