Which pressure washer?

[DanielJames]

Afternoon all.

Looking to replace my Karcher which died in the frost last winter, have managed to do without but now I need another in my life.

Have heard Nilfisk mentioned a lot but not sure what the best is I can get for my budget (£60-100)

Will just be used for rinsing and foaming - already have a lance but a new one would be better.

Anyone got one of them?

Thanks

Hi mate, i started a thread like this a few weeks ago, I was looking at this machine that you just posted but, as you will be using it for just rinsing and foaming I bought their compact one;

But its actually gone up by £10 now, but I highly recommend it, it has auto on/off which is ideal to stop it burning out and its so small and can be wrapped up and stored out the way when not in use.

Nilflisk c110 or 120.

Easy peasy for the enthisiast.

for that nilflisk... what adapor would you need to get it on the snowfoam lance?

I recently bought a Nilfisk C110. Can't go wrong for the money.

K1ngy, you'll need the Kew/Alto fitting.

 

[DanielJames]

Cheers lads! Will be ordering one shortly in time for my pre FCS clean

I'd have a look at Argos if you want Nilfisk, seems cheaper than amazon and no waiting or paying delivery.

Can anyone do better than that?

 

[DanielJames]

actually I have myself!

£51 and the photo would make you assume you get a lance with it for snowfoam?

Nilfisk C110, Screwfix are normally the cheapest, think they had them for about £50 quid the other week !! Best thing to do with the snow foam lance is chuck it in the bin, its useless!!

I bought the same kit on sunday, best I could find it. Yet to try it though

autobrite snow foam lance already ordered from DW group buy

The £50 or £70 one?

I got a Nilfisk C120 about 18 months ago and its still going strong, Would deffo reccomend one. Got it from screwfix as at the time they were the cheapest, around £80, free delivery too.

I was going to get mine from Argos but found that it was an online exclusive and it was never instock for delivery or pickup! Ended up going on eBay and getting a brand new, unopened one for £45.

Oh, as rj2000 has said, the lance that comes with it is shite.

 

[Yellow Dave]

Vesta, the £70 one you posted a link to, the bottle adaptor is only really for spraying shampoo, I very much doubt it'll resemble a snow foam hence why I ordered the proper thing.

Got it from Argos as a couple of my local stores had them in stock for collection, and the price was reduced in store to match the online price

 

[Dan1587]

Yeah I used the bottle that comes with it, and in all honestly, its crap for shampoo...

 

[richy22]

ITs a bit hit and miss with the karcher "foam bottles" I have 2 of them and one of them is awesime the other is crap!

I want a new Pressure washer too. Proper hardcore temperature jobbie anyone with experience of those??
