I Picked one of these up on Saturday to replace my Burnt out Karcher K2.110.
The difference between these 2 pressure washers is Night and day!
First thing I noticed is the build quality, The Nilfisk is much sturdier, and weights allot more than the old unit I threw out, It stays upright when working around the car (Which annoyed me with the Karcher as it kept falling over)
Storing the unit is also much easier, it has a nice mount for the High Pressure hose on the top (Although this is simply storage and the hose has to fully be removed when in use) and 2 pegs to wind the power cable round, The Lance clips nicely away and there are 2 storage clips for the spray heads.
The Lance is much nicer to use with the Quick release Spray heads and the Adjustable Pressure / Spray pattern they allow you to use. The 'Foam Gun' isn't bad either, its not a foam gun like we are all used to for use with Snow Foam but it was great for spraying a 'Soapy' prewash over the car ensuring all the bodywork was nice and slick before moving onto the 2BM. It also came to use later as I was being lazy and didn't dry the car or Wax (As my FK1000p is still holding on 6 months after its last application) So i loaded up the 'foam gun' with some Demon shine and gave it a thorough Spray.
In all a Massive 2 thumbs up from me for the Nilfisk, a PW that punches well above its price tag. :thumb:
