Saved me couple of hundred pound, to clear a sewer blockage. I will say if you are going to do pipe work, as I did buy a face guard and long gloves at the same time.
It took a while to get the hang of the gutter clearing tool, but when I got it to work, it worked well. The long hose is useful for clearing accumulated leaves in underground culverts
Tip to those doing this sort of thing, make sure you have a way of catching the blockage as it falls to stop It blocking further down, I used a small off cut of pipe to stop big items falling all the way into the sewer.
Any how, the upshot is it saved me another call out for someone to get up the ladder and scratch their head.
Used in conjunction with a pressure wash of the same make i found the drain cleaner work great as it should do but i could not get on with gutter function at all,
Very sturdy seemly well made
Bought this to help with clearing an old soak away drain. I have also used this to check my main drains, no complaints.
We had a blocked drainpipe which had to 90 degree bends in. This addition to the Karcher made light work of the blockage and now water goes down the pipes and doesn’t overflow down the house sounding like a river.
The gutter tool is not very effective. It barely fits my gutters, sends mess all over the place and is more hassle than cleaning it by hand and then clearing the pipe with the main pipe cleaner. That said, I’ve used the ‘sieve’ to block the down pipe when hand clearing the gutters which avoids any debris going down the pipe; so that accessory is still useful.
One star deducted due to the gutter accessory. Also, I think the design of the jets could be improved either by having a forward facing jet, as this might more directly clear a blockage, or by mounting it on a swivelling head so that the jets would spin and better clean all sides of the pipe.
Excellent equipment, easy to use though not yet tried the gutter attachment, only wanted the long hose for pipe cleaning. 5 stars
Fantastic piece of kit, saved me 100+ on drain jetting. Took about 3 hours to clear 15m of badly blocked soil pipe and the sink now drains like never before.
Bought for the drain clearance system, does what it says on the box, happy with that. The gutter cleaner is a little flawed as all gutters are not uniform with the same access.
This is a very well made product. However, the gutter cleaning attachment may well not fit into a UK gutter system especially if the gutter is close to the tiles. It is really designed for square guttering.
WIll be using this in the summer. I’ll update the review then. Being a Karcher, it should be good.
I had to make use of the drain/sewer cleaning hose pipe today down a small rain water drain which was completely blocked by some foreign material, possibly sand or gravel, and it cleared the blockage in a few minutes. I had feared a major job of having to dig up and replace the blocked pipe. A wonderful product which I can recommend.
So easy to use and cleaned the drains in no time which last time cost me 100 to get a company to do them so I’ve saved on that cost already
This paid for itself in one use. Our kitchen drain regularly blocks up. This and a Karcher K2 was what I needed to break up the clog and clean out the dirt in the pipe. Brilliant. Wouldn’t be without it.
I bought this drain pipe cleaner as I saw one being used by DynoRod many years ago when we had a blockage. This has saved me a fortune on calling out a plumber as it was able to whizz down the drains and unblock the pipe. I expect I’ll only ever use it once, but it’s already paid for itself so highly recommended!
Don’t trust the photos from Karcher however, you would still need to get onto ladder so as to clip the device onto the gutter, somewhere along the gutter. Another observation is that the “mouse” until is too bulky because modern plastic guttering tend to be shallow, at least mine are; which means I would still have to get onto a ladder all along the gutter runs to remove the leave protection off the gutter to use this device. Just as well it wasn’t bought for this purpose.
Double check all your gutters are wide enough to fit the sled . If your gutters are standard 100mm it doesnt mean it will work as how they are fit varies the actual width the sled can move along .
Due to the oddly shaped gutters the shuttle can’t move if it’s placed into them to wash out the gutter, but it’s other ability of being able to be inserted into the underground pipework makes up for it.
I am living at the edge of the green belt, dry summer’s and the windy conditions mean loose soil and other debris gets deposited onto my roof, the rain will then wash it down into the drains slowing the transit of surface water away from my property.
Commercial specialists charge a fortune to come and do what this does, yet it cost me the equivalent of a single visit and I have the ability to get it done many times over.
I used drain cleaning kit with my new Karcher K2 Full control power washer to open my blocked drain. The result was perfect. The pressure was high enough even with 26m hose length (20m kit + 6m K2 hose). No need to spend the same cost for plumbing services.
Didn’t try gutter kit yet…
Bought this a last-gasp effort to resuscitate a blocked up soak-away. Haven’t used the gutter cleaning bits but the drain cleaner has effectively cleared gallons of sludge blocking the septic tank soak-away saving me thousands of pounds digging a new one. Has a good long reach and worked a dream with my K4 machine.
I find this much easier to use than the chimney sweeping rods I had used for decades..
Use of the gutter attachment results in less ladder work. Highly recommended
I was suprised and impressed with this cleaning kit; it definitely beats working along the gutter inch by inch with a stick and a brush. From now on I should be able to do the whole lot from two easily reached access points.
What can I say? It’s now sitting in its box ready for summer to come so I can go and do the drainage outside too!
Great product and shockingly useful for more than 1 function!
My gutters were blocked with the usual grit and sludge (where does it all come from?) which had become somewhat solidified with moss growing on it. When I tried to use the Karcher gutter cleaning kit firstly the cleaning sled (which incorperates the water jets) kept turing over so that dirty water was sprayed upwards rather than down the gutter. Secondly because of the amount of dirt in the gutter there was a lot of overflow over the gutter sides such that the guttering and soffits were filthy and themselves needed cleaning.
Having done this once (and ended up with very clean gutters) I will be repeating the excersice regularly to prevent excessive buildup of dirt.
The drain cleaner is a must if you struggle with blockages. I won’t throw away my rods but I probably won’t need them unless tree roots are the culprit.
