Hi all, Iv done a search re pressure washers but cant really find anything on this Nilfisk ALTO C120 2-6 Pressure Washer 120bar 240V 1.7kW with Accessories - Screwfix.com, Where the Trade Buys

I have heard this brand mentioned in passing but don't really know anything about it.
Has anyone used...got one? Any good?

Was looking a Karcher before but there have been quite a few bad reviews lately that hae put me off.

My budget is around the £100 mark and will use it for the patio etc too

Any recommendations are appreciated

Thanks

 

Anyone used the Nilfisk Alto?

 

the best pressure washers have brass pump heads and ceramic pistons, aluminium and plastic won't last and will be damaged by particulates in the water.

£100 won't buy anything that will last more than a few years. All power tools are made with a working life in hours, Actual use hours, e.g-

£50 karcher washer used for 15min's a week (actual trigger pulled water coming out the end time) will last 2-3 years if you're lucky as it has a design life of 30 hours or so.

£300 Kranzle washer has an actual design life of 3000hrs, do the math

£50 ÷ 30hrs = £1.66ph

£300 ÷ 3000hrs = £0.10ph

As that damn meerkat says "Simples?"

Try here Kranzle UK Ltd | Commercial and Industrial Pressure Washers. I used to sell 'em, NEVER had one back faulty.

 

Thanks Giles.

Would love a Kranzle, and I agree it does make sence in the long run but at the moment my budget wont cover that, my maximum at the moment would be £150ish.

 

Amazon are doing a deal on the Karcher 3.99M+ normally £160ish, but now £89.99 with FREE delivery in the UK....ordered mine at the start of November, and it arrived 2 days later in Northern Ireland with no excess delivery costs......comes with a brush and 2 lances which are compatible with the AB Foam Lance......

Got the AB Foam Lance off Ebay from AB direct, and with 10litres of snow foam, £60....so for your £150 budget that cant be bad ????

 

Is that for a brand new one or a refirb machene?

 

Cheers Brocks I'll have a look into that one

im after a decent washer and want one compatiable with foam lance.
tried to look for it but cheapest i see is £140.thanks in advance.

 

Apologies...think the offer must have been a xmas one and is now over

AFAIK ALL Karcher washers are compatible with the AB Foam Lance, you just need to specify which model when ordering the lance

 

ok thanks anyway mate.
