Bought a Karcher washer a few years ago. Had it just over a year and the pump went tits up. In all fairness they repaired it for me FOC when I produced a bank statement as I'd misplaced the receipt. Did not have it long and the thing started to leak out the bottom. so i left it.

I was quoted 85 quid to fix and decided that a new one would be better so got another one on Saturday with the logic that I was just plain unlucky. I now know that I'm jinxed and not just unlucky. I put the new one together this afternoon and the fucking thing is pissing water out the bottom Sad Doh Angry Doh

Well Karcher are going to get a swarm of fleas in their ears in the morning.

Anyone recommend a reliable and powerful jet washer other than a Karcher?

You sure it wasn't just your hose connector leaking?

I've got a Halfords own brand one that I bought in their sale a few years ago. It's been ok for me.

I use these for t shirt production as I need to jet wash screens.

If the Water in your area is hard, you are fucked.

I have had karchers......but now I buy the cheapest I can get and then lob them....£30 is about right.
