Pressure washers

[Mike Dempsey]

Just be careful when buying one. I know a guy who worked for the council transport dept. He had a shot of one for cleaning his BMW. Too powerful, it stripped a large area of paint off the back of the car and it cost him a fortune for a respray:lol:

i have an older model stihl, which i love. But if i was to buy another it would be a nilfisk.

 

 

Think they are the same? If not they look it.

If you could see what model number it is that would be helpful! There are so many different ones...

 

Just looked, it's a c110.3.

 

I know it's one of the more basic ones, with the PTO beast available there was no point going too dear but it's been very good.

Cheers for that, I'm quite interested in this one at the moment:

 

Nilfisk E140.3-9 S X-tra Pressure Washer - Nilfisk Domestic Pressure Washers - CleanStore

 

Looks good, I have budgeted around the £200 - £250 mark as well

 

 

 

What do you think?

 

 

Looks good, very similar to mine, just 10 bar less and slightly lower flow rate, I reckon you would be pleased with that one. The long wind up high pressure hose saves a lot of messing about since you don't have to keep moving the pressure washer to do bigger areas/go round a car etc. I wouldn't be worried about too much pressure, just be careful and leave a bigger gap between the nozzle/car etc and the gap effectively reduces the ferocity of the water jet.

These are brilliant and less than £200 . 2200psi 5.5HP Petrol Power Jet Pressure Washer 2200 psi | eBay

 

Ours is old now but has been 100% reliable and no leccy needed which is a good thing with all that water spraying about, will also work off a barrel if there is no watermains about.
