Best thing ever and its from lidl

[kingtom]

Was under the 80 the otherday and noticed the whole chassis was full of mud. Tried getting in there as best as I could with a screw driver but didnt get very far. Was down at lidl and found a pressure washer and additional attachment for cleaning drains. Cost around £80. I wouldnt normally buy such a thing from lidl but they gave it a 3 year warrenty and on paper it out performed the karcher which was priced at over £250.

What a great bit of kit very powerful cleaned the patio like a dream. I put the drain cleaning attachment on and stuck it up the rear of the chassis and hey presto cleaned the whole lenghth no bother. The way the drain cleaners designed is the jet pushes backwards pushing the nozzle forward and pulling all the caked mud out.

Highly recommended

What pressure does the Lldl work at? my washer is pants and I've been thinking of getting another one, but better.

I have a massive Karcher with a drain thingy - I never though of doing that! Mind you I think I would need to wash my drain thingy in Bleach before it goes anywhere near my car (knowing where its been!)

Lidl had an offer on about a year ago for a petrol jetwash but were sold out when i got there so i ended up with one of these http://www.tool-net.co.uk/p-400731/clarke-jet-9000.html?gclid=CJ6cxqzXo8QCFbPKtAodSCcAHw

I wouldn't attack my trucks paint with it with anything less than a foot spread of spray and concentrated full power jet easily removed about 4 layers of paint from my army trailer .

 

[kingtom]

Still a few left in exeter

Shayne - ive been looking at that, or maybe the 8000 which is not quite as powerful.

Kingtom - bit far from Bridgwater

I bought blind Pete deciding another 20 quid for the 9000 was neither here nor there and i'm happy with it , seems well put together and packs away tidy . I haven't used the soap tank yet because i keep forgetting to buy salt free shampoo but i can do it tomorrow if you like .

It replaces this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bosch-Aquatak-1200-Pressure-Washer/dp/B0007P24RU which is limp wristed by comparison .

I've had good experiences with Lidl kit. Bought one of those steam generator irons which had a 3 year warranty on it. Still going strong at 11 years old on hard tap water too.

Like the drain cleaner idea for the chassis.

Bought one of their compresors with 50ltr tank and accessories can't go wrong for price and 3year warranty

Yep, got one of them in my garage too, along with a Parkway Kango type thingy and two heavy duty drills, Parkway do some good stuff.

Collected my pressure washer from tomkings mum today picked it up OK, got home and tried it out and a bit disappointed, it claims to be 150 bar but it's not quite as powerful as my Bosch which is 100 bar but it is more convenient to use with the spool for the hose, it'll just take a little longer to do a job. It may be the nozzle is less concentrating with the water jet so not hitting the surface as hard as the Bosch.

I just had one of these delivered and for the price/size i'm very impressed with the power and performance. It comes with the drain & patio cleaners too.

Just spent a few hours cleaning concrete/bricks with the patio cleaner - the pressure is such that it lifts the head of the cleaner up requiring a little force to keep it down.

All for only £78. Apparently the RRP for this is £209
