Just picked one of these new washers up new, first one blew last sunday while washing a car, started leaking water from the body, got the replacement one today connected it up, 5 minutes into washing, same thing again piddling out water...
which leads me to think i might of set something up wrong? anyone got any experience with it? not impressed with a £500 power washer so far... |

Had the same karcher for over 10 years with no problems. It was only today I decided to buy a new hose/handle for it as it's shorter than the old one and easier to get under my Landy with.

I bought a Karcher from their professional range, which have brass internal fittings instead of plastic. I think mine was the HD5/12C? Got it from Alex Shanks for about £400.

yup, we had one for years then when it finally packed in we bought this, mainly because of the long hose... haven't had much luck with the k7 so far. |
