Forgive her Lord, she knoweth not the joy of blasting dirt off things :wink:

I posted the same advert - can someone remove it as Goldy12 got there first. Also, note the price could be £53 using the B&Q voucher.

You're better off paying £15 more and getting a Nilfisk washer.

​no, no, no U need a wireless hose kit can transfer fair amount of water, simply plug it to tap and another bit to washer and there U go, search ebay

Just picked up the compact for £48 from Homebase.

Just had half hour on it

Amazing little machines for the money never knew are patio was cream :confused:




Cheers Op, and the Homebase poster :wink:

Great find

good price. Get it even if you have no use for it

Sounds like a nonsense question but..... Do you need and outside hose for these. Where does the water come from :neutral_face:

You need to connect it to a hose, that hose can be connected from inside or outside on a tap.
You will also need a power extension cord so you can plug it in as well, unless you are using it close to a power source.

I can imagine the blast of dirt enthralling but forgive me in my thought.... If the hose is in the back garden your car is out front parked on the street you'd have to drag the entirety through the house. No?

If you are in a terrace, yes you do.
However you could run a hose under the floor. So that it can be connected to the tap at the back when needed and you have access out front. No plumber needed :smiley:
I ran a hose round to the front of the house and do pretty much that.

Voucher?

Found it http://www.diy.com/bandqclub?ecamp=Aff-157118&awc=483_1463151790_35ca58ff8f18cb2c0c85b8b729297159

I don't think your issue is with the idea of a power washer... You need to get on the property market!

That would apply whether using a standard hose or a pressure washer... :confused:

Does this come with the connector I would need to attach it to a kitchen tap? If not, any ideas what I'm looking for and how much?

If you're not bothered about the detergent or patio cleaner, it's £48.97 at Homebase

OP forgot to mention it s free P&P too :smiley: anyway i ordered one so thanks OP...

I have this

I can confirm that I get more pressure by holding half my thumb over the end of the hose than I do out of this plastic yellow poop.

Maybe the higher models are better, but this is Duff with a capital D

go on topcashback 3.15% aswell

Great price. Picked one up from Amazon few months back @ £59 (which is the cheapest its been this year at Az)

Similar price at Tesco too: http://www.tesco.com/direct/karcher-k2-compact-pressure-washer/580-9559.prd

Yeah definitely

I bought the "standard" one from Homebase then found this in B&Q. The standard one went straight back, this was £80 in Homebase.

Been keeping an eye out. Almost bought at tesco lunchtime but didn't need the car kit. Spotted this post and got one as I wanted the patio cleaner. Cheers poster have some heat.

Thanks for the reminder have added it in :smiley:

The cheapest price on market? If there is no difference

good find

I believe that's minus the accessories.

Brilliant machine, bought from Amazon a while ago. Super for cleaning a patio - had lots of fun last Sunday!

You're better off paying £15 more and getting a Nilfisk washer.

Ive got one of these, they are not that good. The jet is very narrow, and the patio cleaner just makes the jet less powerful, but wider.

Has anyone managed to get the £5 code to work?

Received mine just now, it does say not valid on products on promotion so assuming that's why it's not working for me, but has anyone else managed to get it to work or used it successfully Instore?

£48 in Homebase at the moment

Is that with just water or patio cleaner too hard?

Good price for this, but Amazon regularly have much more powerful Nilfisk washers for around £20 more and are well worth it in my opinion.

Damn you Karcher for making a pressure washer that cannot produce its own water and electricity

There's plenty of charlatans lurking around this website trying to belittle posters efforts and jump on any thing they see fit, its a shame they don't put more effort into finding good deals like yourself and are willing to accept positive feedback.Keep up the good work..

Just water, plug in and go...looks amazing dry, very pleased..

I bought the Karcher K2 compact from Tesco Direct with car washing items ie. Brush attachment, car wash, sponge. It was £54 with 500 points back on your clubcard too. Think this ones exclusive to Tesco but haven't seen it I store.

i have this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00ECWRPQ4/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?qid=1463207353&sr=8-9&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=tap+hose+adapter

more expensive but less flaffing when you need to attach it and looks nice in the mean time. use mine to attach a hose for filling fish tank so @ least weekly worth the extra but if not id of got a £5 1!!

Is the 4m hose it comes with long enough to get round a car?

there's a lot of negative reviews in their comment section.

Bearing in mind your original question then I assume life is a big struggle and faff for you imo.

Obviously if you pick the washer up and move it....If that's too much hassle then doubt you get out of bed in the morning so you won't need this.
I got this from Tesco when cheaper and use it to clean a lovely static caravan and my car without any issue.

​the come pre loaded with water and run on fairy dust

Yes you can buy the slabs at B&Q with the dirt grime and algae already impregnated into them!!

Now this sounds swish.... Like teleported water :confused:

Next thing people will be telling us is that water falls from the sky!

Signed up for £5 voucher but haven't received any emails from [email protected] yet ?

sold out :-(

it's out of stock online (got through to check out, but it then sent "we don't have that item"!). I want one :'(

Be aware! This is a heapest device and has air cooling system rather than water cooling which can overheat the engine till it stops and will never start again.
Max 10 min of work will be safe for the engine.

What a load of boll....! I bought this model, with the patio cleaner at even better price last year - Homebase £49.00 :stuck_out_tongue:
True, the motor is air cooled but it has auto stop/start, so if gets too hot it switches off. I've had mine going for a quarter of an hour and it didn't cut out. Still going strong. Most of the time you don't have it going full tilt anyhow, like cleaning the car you spray, you stop, etc. PLUS it has 2 year guarantee.
I bought one because of the low price (never seen it this cheap anywhere else) , but also because of this review by Which?
They gave it 'outstanding'. I'll second that.
http://pressurewasherreviewer.co.uk/karcher-k2-compact-home-air-cooled-pressure-washer-review/

In fact, it was cheaper than £49 because I didn't need it, I flogged the patio cleaner part on ebay for 15 quid! :smile:

Sorry lister, not voting as Homebase Deal was much better than this. Perhaps they will do it again... worth waiting if not desperate for one. Plus Homebase do good Nectar deals.
EDIT Oops silly me just seen the other posts. Homebase price is good, but unlike my buy there last year it's not got the patio cleaner etc. Plenty of buyers out there for the patio cleaner part, so buy B&Q and flog the patio bit on ebay for up to 40 quid! I should have asked more for mine but wanted rid of it quick.
LOOK!! People paying nearly 40 quid for patio cleaner part alone that is included in your box if you buy a K2!
MAD WORLD!

Well that's a record, it took a whole 31 posts before we got a Nilfisk post. And before anybody starts I have never had a problem in nearly 10 years of good usage from my Karcher.

My friend has had one of these for over a year and it's never stopped on him, even out here in hottest Spain.

Forgot to say he has to clean his patio regular, he has a wife.

I was wondering about that, it only being 110 bar.

mine would take skin off....... did you switch it on?

I suspect that the person who posted that the pressure was not great must have been someone like me .

Bought it today from B&Q . I didn't read the manual ( had a few pints of beer on board) and tried to clean the patio with just the extension bit put on the trigger gun .

I was wondering if my model was defective and then looked at the manual.

Only then did I notice that the lance was to be connected for the pressure to build up.:-(

Brilliant device and as another poster commented , I didn't know that my patio was the colour its now.

Just had mine running 6 hours constant, never missed a beat, front drive and rear patio done ready for Summer :smile:

Looks like I've had a new drive and patio installed, very happy fantastic product!!

Cheaper at homebase

Course it is, £79 is cheaper than £58 If were you I,'d buy from there Grab yourself a bargain :wink:

I can confirm that the £5 off voucher in the email does work instore.

​check Argos .... basic unit without some of the accessories for under £49!

At least 20+ of these left in the Erdington store Birmingham, just picked one up, although website won't allow click and collect. Took a photo showing stock, but not sure how to add to the post from my phone.

Wouldn't buy it for this price.

You'll see the K2 on offer for much less. I picked one up for £30 in a new year sale, didn't include the patio washer but they don't really work anyway. The dirt blaster lance works just fine (used it at the weekend).
Nothing wrong with the machine it works fine for cars and slabs.

It was a bargain at £30 but I wouldn't pay £80 for it even with the patio cleaner and a bag of detergent.

If you're going to spend £80+ get a Nilfisk

Fair point but this is £58. Used mine yesterday worked great with a foam cannon :laughing:

​Bought it yesterday and cleaned my paving. The stones are a new colour and water dries fast.

Cannot do that with a hose and thumb.

What foam lance are you using? Sno-foam?

Ebay special. Brass fittings about £18 delivered. Combined with demon shine snow foam from an earlier Hotukdeals post. Foams up well. Looking forward to running out and excuse to buy a better snow foam product .
