Bought this to clean concrete paths, instead of using “nasty chemicals” to remove unsightly & dangerously slippy moss. With ear defenders & safety goggles on its a joy to blitz the gunge.
If like me you are cursed with the belief that More is More, then be warned: the “100% Power dirt-blaster attachment will merrily and efficiently strip the paint from your beloved motorcycle before you realise that it is paint, as well as dirt coming off. The other “normal” attachment is what you need for cleaning vehicles. Am simultaneously delighted by the power and appalled by my own stupidity
Bought this to get rid of the moss that seems to be everywhere, once i,d got a hose & tap connector sorted, actually realised i had coloured slabs, could see the dirt & grime being blasted off, no more moss on the path or yard. cleaned it all off, wished i,d got one sooner. decent kit at a reasonable price. some of the instructions were a little vague but all in all GREAT
Needed to replace my old pressure washer and this is a nice replacement. Easily enough power to wash my car, paths, conservatory and garden walls (before and after pictures). It’s a good size and fairly light to handle Pressure is good and it’s easy to use. In my video you will see it comes with some plastic clips, I wrongly assumed these just need to come off. Please remember that once you attach the hose you need to put the clips back on both ends of the hose or you will get wet (I did ). The little black strip of plastic that’s loose in the box is the handl to clip in at the top. I ran this for a good 2-3 hrs on each of the first 2 days I got it with no issues. I recommend this produc
we had to buy a new one as our old(8 years ) karcher died after leaking for years( our own fault as we left it out in the shed in the heavy frost which killed the seal)
So we spend and bought this cheap little karcher which does the job better than the old bigger and more expensive karcher we owned before!
Great piece of equiptment!
Two nozzles – the high power one clears thick moss and also weeds between slabs, using a clever ‘focussing’ technique. The other one is good for windows etc. The instruction manual is difficult to decipher and doesn’t highlight the dangers of mixing mains electricity and water – that’s a worry.
Have had the same before. We use it a lot to wash cars and decking ( a lot of) mainly. Unfortunately because of this it only last 3-4 years but am happy with the amount of use it gets all year round and it’s the inexpensive one.
Can’t believe how good this is, especially since it’s so tiny. I paid someone 80 five years ago to clean my flagstones and they’ve not been cleaned since then. Decided to take the chance and buy this, and it’s just lifted 5 years worth of dirt like it was nothing. Blasted away all the weeds too (found it easier to do with the Dirtblaster attachment rather than the high pressure nozzle). Very easy to clean the grime off the surface of the stones, takes a bit of effort to get dirt out of little depressions in the flagstones if they’re the rough, uneven ones – you have to get super close with the power jet, but it does the job. Also blasts away some of the white lichen, which I was told you need chemicals to sort that out. No chemicals here. Now I’ve lifted 5 years worth of muck, I’ll give the flagstones a quick, annual wash in spring and I reckon that will be enough to maintain beautiful, clean buff stones. Worth the investment, will save a fortune and has already paid for itself.
I liked the ability to store it easily as it’s the size of a rucksack, even still in the box. I also found it easy to put together and use. With the high pressure attachment I was able to strip out pointing between bricks in a patio, even if you have to be patient enough to wait for the machine to cycle.
It’s early days yet and I’d like to see how it holds up to being outside and getting used over a long period.
I paid 77 in September 2023 and consider it good enough for a price driven customer.
Easy to use – not as bulky as larger models . Does a good job in washing down the patio and decking around my caravan . The white plastic balustrade needs cleaning frequently . This machine can be used by both myself and husband . Consider it a good buy for the money
Don’t be fooled by the size and power or the K2, we’ve used ours for most standard domestic needs (including paint stripping old garden with ease!) and it performs admirably. Don’t get me wrong, the more powerful machines may do the job quicker and easier, but ignorance is bliss and this cleans our cars, makes the patio and drive look like new and is small lightweight and costs less than 70!
I am interested in how powerful other more expensive models are in case I’m missing a trick but I’d strongly recommend this unit.
This is a great compact pressure washer, I find it easier to use as the pressure gun is smaller and the lead doesn’t get tangled as much as the bigger K2. It has enough power to clean patio, car and woodwork plus easy to carry round. Also the price is reasonable
Had my old Karcher fir a long time before it gave up! Thought I’d try a more compact model and this one’s excellent, has as much power as the old one, but half the weight, ideal for my home needs
I think this is probably Karchers cheapest model, but it has done an excellent job cleaning ingrained dirt from my patio: It has restored the colour of the stones, so the patio looks new again. Was pleasantly surprised at how effective it is!
I watched a few videos of one of these in action, showing the transition from filthy to perfectly clean in the blink of an eye. I was dubious. Nothing could work that well. But this actually does. The handheld piece vibrates. A lot. Which means it’s probably not a good idea to use the pressure washer for long periods at a time. But it does such an amazing job that I wish I had some ‘before and after’ pics to share.
I will update this the next time I wash my car but at the moment it’s not sucking up the soap from karchers own, seems like an air lock keep you posted
I was a little concerned about buying the lowest price in the range but it’s be excellent for jet washing the patio, drive and car. That’s all I want it for, so perfect. One gripe – the locking mechanism when fixing the attachment is really fiddly and, to me, very annoying. Karcher could, I’m sure, find a better way. Hence 4 stars and not 5.
Not had a single issue with it so far, just use it to wash the car. I reckon if you used it on a big job it would overheat though
This is more than adequate to do a great job of cleaning slabs and seems the perfect size for domestic use.
Does what its meant to but a little bit underpowered wish had got the next one up
Cheaper than in the shops, really happy with this product.
Could do with a little longer cable and somewhere on the machine to wrap the cable when not in use. Other than that, it’s a fantastic little machine with plenty enough power for my needs (cleaning kennel run and paving slabs) and is very good for it’s size and price point.
Used for over 2 years, cleaned the cars, cleaned the patio (which involved constant use for over 4 hours) and absolutely no issues at all. Definitely enough power in this model for washing cars and patios, no doubt.
Ideal for car, patio. Very light but pressure is good. Only slight issue is the lead and hose regarding storage. Some
More powerful than it looks – good value for money
I’m a newcomer to the world of power tools, and forgot to thank about a water source. I came back to this site for a suction hose – it uses less water and means you don’t need an outdoor tap.
The machine itself is pretty much plug-and-play. Grand for light household duties, but I doubt it would be any use to someone who required a washer for commercial use.
I’ve never used a powerwasher before so have nothing to compare it to but it seems really powerful. It removed 15 years worth of green stuff and really heavily ground in dirt from my balcony with ease. It also removed some paint but that was my fault. I would seriously recommend buying the lance extension, its not expensive and it made the job so much easier. Without it i would have been bent over the whole time with all the ‘blowback’ in my face. My balcony hasnt looked so good in a very, very long time. It was so simple to assemble if you can even call it assembly, it’s just connecting a couple of hoses and plugging in. Oh and it really is compact. It’s about the size of a small backpack – the kind you would give a primary school kid with his lunch and books in. I dont have a shed or garage so i was relieved it is so small. You could literally keep it under the sink. I’m very pleased.
I had a K4 Karcher that stopped working after 3 years, so I bought this K2 as a cheaper alternative replacement. Having read other postings about the difficulty of tidying (coiling and storing) the power cable, I don’t know what all the fuss is about. I’ve included a photo of the cable tidied away. It is a simple matter to disconnect the pressure hose at both ends and just coil it up for strorage. The unit itself is much lighter than the K4 and can be moved around very easily. HOT TIP – Just splash out and get the optional 10m pressure hose. Then, when washing the car, you won’t have to move the unit at all. I gave 4 out of 5 stars because the plastic connecter slides that secure the pressure hose in position don’t look very sturdy. On the whole, very pleased with my purchase.
I’ve never owned a pressure washer so can’t compare it’s performance to any others but I’ve only seen great results so far from this one! (See photos & videos attached).
Would have rated 5 stars, but similar to others experiences, I’ve seen less water pressure power each time I’ve used it (a total of three times now). The first time was incredible, but the 2nd and 3rd time have been a bit temperamental. Before purchasing I read from the reviews that after finishing with the device, it’s important to release the water pressure by turning off water supply and releasing the water from its tank until empty (usually takes around 15 – 30 seconds).
I’ve been doing this after each use but still finding I’m having issues with the next use. The start up was also slower on the 3rd use… Not sure why this happens but I’m still able to get good results from it and just glad the gardens looking a lot fresher now!
Fantastic results,I think the pictures show how effective this little machine is. I knew the paving stones had originally been that colour only from looking at pictures of the property on a estate agent website from 15 years ago! I had no idea the result would be this good – have struggled many times with hard brushes and patio detergents with no joy. These two tiles took me about 12 seconds to clean. Cant wait to do the rest on a hot day. Got very good results on car rims too , but I ‘m afraid I wasn’t too happy wish the car wash result , I think will stick to normal hose spray for that, as the pressure washer just seems to shift the dirt around the car. Also be careful if you have a brick driveway and are trying to remove weeds as the pointing between the brickwork gets damaged and the soil flies everywhere , protect yourself and your eyes, and move your car or you’ll have to wash it all over again !! ( hindsight is a wonderful thing) . Pleased with ease of assembley – took only five mins and didn’t need the book.
