Whilst flicking TV channels I came across a presentation featuring a Karcher pressure washer which looked just the job for cleaning cars, blasting paths and patios plus cleaning garden furniture etc etc and it slowly dawned on me that we actually had a pressure washer in our garden shed. Not being the sort of person to hang about, I decided to take a look, see if I could work how to put it together and how to use it without the instruction manual. We really needed to do something about the state of our fairly large paved area to the front of the house and the BBQ and paved are at the rear. Whilst clambering over all sorts in the shed I finally found the ...  Read the complete review

Well Spring is approaching and with it comes one of the big jobs of the year. We need to clean the slabs in the courtyard and at the front of the house and it is even more important this year as the house is up for sale! Over the winter the slabs at the back of the house in particular get very marked with bird droppings and general dirt and they also get quite slippery with that green slimy film that develops during the rain. It all sounds like hard work doesn't it? Actually no it isn't - all I need is a dry, not too cold day and my trusty Karcher Pressure Washer. We decided to buy the washer when we were in the Midlands and ...  Read the complete review

Washing the car has to rate as one of the most tedious jobs around the house. Ironing pips it at the post, but finishing a strong second is washing the car. In a conversation about cars one day at work, a colleague started telling me how much easier it is to clean a car with a Karcher, 20 minutes and it's done. A quick check on DooYoo confirmed his rantings, so it was with great enthusiasim that I bought a Karcher pressure washer in a recent B&Q sale. Purchased for about £80, this little yellow beastie promised to save me hours of valuable time and give me a cleaner car to boot. Boasting a pressure of 100PSI and pumping out 330 litres of water per ...  Read the complete review

I have a patio area at the back of my house. It was starting to look rather tired and dark and when wet, it was beginning to get a little slippy. While the weather is still nice and I am able to get out in the garden, I decided to buy a pressure washer. I was prepared to spend up to a £100 pounds. Not knowing much about them, I thought that anything that came under this budget would be pretty lame and unable to do the job. I trotted off to my nearest garden centre and started to look at the various machines; some beastly monstrosities, some slightly smaller and more manageable looking. *Choosing the machine* While staring quizzically at the bunch ...  Read the complete review

I knew I needed one and I was never sure which one to buy so this morning I came to dooyoo and read a few reviews. This afternoon I went and bought one. We chose the Karcher B 302 model as it comes complete with a trolley and many free accessories - a spray lance with double nozzle, a spray gun, a wash brush and a dirt blaster. The hose length is 7.5 metres which was ample to do our patio without having to drag the machine around very much. The pressure washer connects to your hose pipe with the Hoselock attachment (supplied) and can run at a maximum temperature of 40 degrees C though most people will run it with cold water alone. ...  Read the complete review
