Well spotted this at Aldi, any idea if it will take Keracher fittings?

I think they are just re-branded Karchers, so in that case they would accept Karcher fittings.

Looks to me like it Karcher parts would work with it.

I believe they are made by Karcher but they will not accept Karcher accessories unless they are modified.

To get Karcher accesories to fit the Power Craft gun you will need to file down the Karcher bayonet lugs by 3mm.

Yep that man speaks the truth ^^^^^^

May as well just buy the real deal then.

Depends on what you can get for your money RCT ? I am quite pleased with the powercraft unit,had mine a while as have a few others on here. Although a little bit gutted recently that the Karcher connector didnt fit (I assumed it would too!)After 15mins of prep work I was happy!It needs 3mm from the ends of each lug, 6mm total per side. Have a look in Richcups project thread it shows how he did it. ; )
