I've been looking for a patio cleaner attachment for my Karcher pressure washer for a while but they seem quite expensive.
I noticed this one in Aldi today and noticed it comes with extension poles and also 2 adaptors so that it fits other types of pressure washers.
I tried it on my Marcher K2 and the adaptor fits fine.
So it is a patio cleaner attachment complete with extension poles that can be used on other pressure washers that comes with the usual ALDI 3 year warranty.

I had a quick look in the manual and it mentions 2 adaptors "E" & "H"
"H" can be connected to Workzone & Top Craft spray guns since 2012
"E" can be connected to "Gun of common used DIY market spray gun limited by 150bar" - (this fits my Karcher)
I've also attached a copy of the relevant page in the manual and a photo of the adaptors if it helps ("E" is on left "H" is on right)

Doubtful, so many connections out there. Not trying to put you off, go into aldi with one of your connectors and try.

I don't think those links work (Have got as far as the HUKD directory, but no jpg files listed). I would find this helpful, as I'm trying to use my old Nilfisk attachments to a newly bought Aldi pressure washer.

Does anyone know if the Aldi patio cleaner will fit Bosch pressure washers?

Think again if you really need one.. got one with my nilfisk and its just total tat , not worth the hassle to even take it out of the box how useless it is...

I guess you mean the compact patio cleaner? I have one myself but haven't used it yet. However, I have used a patio cleaner from Aldi with a different pressure washer and it completely revived my drive and other block paving/patio. I didn't know there was a pattern in it beforehand!

That's odd, I got one with a nilfisk and it works a treat; it's quick and doesn't generate much mess. Could be yours is faulty maybe? I've knocked the rotor arm underneath once or twice and that knocks jets out of line which renders it useless but all I need to do is push them back into place. Out of curiosity do the jets on your patio cleaner create a swirling helical type pattern (like the end of Ghostbusters :smile:) if your lift it off the floor and aim it forward?; that's how I know mine is working properly.

I got a drain cleaner from aldi today and it doesn't fit my Nilfisk C110 4-5 X-Tra. It had the same adapters.

Wish I'd seen this sooner, just bought a Karcher K2 With Patio cleaner for £84.99 from homebase today as I thought none of the new Attachments would fit my old Karcher 411a :-(
I used my karcher K2 yesterday to clean the patio. Did a brilliant job but mine didn't come with a patio cleaner only 2 x lances.
I was filthy by the time I had finished the job!
This looks like just the thing, the official patio cleaner attachment is being sold by Tesco for £65!

Yep, I have a Nilfisk one that works a charm too. Cleaned my patio and paths perfectly.

I use the jet on a wide setting to clean my patio. What do these type do? Are they just safer, or fool proof? I say that because I used a thin jet the first time and got splattered in the face by some cement from between the slabs!

The spray is contained within the attachment, it has short bristles around the circumference. The pressurised spray comes out through two angled nozzles that spin inside the cleaner. This also helps to slightly raise the cleaner when it is being used (slight hover effect). If you were to move it very quickly you would see a joined up circular clean pattern on the floor. The idea is move it steadily and it clears the floor much much more quickly than by just using the lance. They really do save time, have a look on YouTube.

Here's a video of the nilfisk compact patio cleaner, same principle as the aldi one: http://youtu.be/W_IXlVI-mFE

I find these things only good if you dont want to make much of a mess but the normal jet nozzle or the swirly jet nozzles to be more effective....

Same here, I have the red brick drive and it barely cleaned at all after going over the same spot for 10 minutes. It keeps your shoes relatively clean and dry but in terms of cleaning patios/driveways I just stick to the normal spray head too. Save your money peeps!
