Karcher K2 Full Control Home Power Washer
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I needed to do some patio cleaning and it was far cheaper to buy a pressure washer than pay to get the work done. I spent a week looking at the options and settled for the Karcher K2 from Screwfix. I had owned a Karcher machine years ago and it gave great service and so it was an easy decision.
I paid the full advertised price from Screwfix and am a very pleased customer. It has proved to be a very popular video and I have now made three K5 videos -
Karcher K5 Basics:

My Black & Decker washer gave up on me and their service center seems to be permanently closed (no reply whatsoever). So, I'm thinking of getting one of this. Even though this is 3 years old, it is very informative and honest experience. I thank you sir.
Great presentation, you’re a natural. I’m definitely going to purchase the patio cleaner attachment after that review. Well done to you.
Been wanting a karcher jet washer for ages, will be purchasing one this evening. By far the best review I’ve seen!

My husband I purchased one of these. It is now MINE I love it, I have chronic arthritis and cleaning is difficult to say the least. I am unable to clean the exterior of the house or the driveway in a day, however that is simply because my body fails me. This cleaner however does not. I have cleaned part of the front of the house, the mail box, and part of the driveway I haven’t touched the universal cleaner yet as I simply haven’t needed to. I am going to be using it again today for the third day in a row, I am looking around the exterior of the house and in my head adding it to my list of things I am cleaning next! I love it, it is incredibly light and so easy to put together and use I would recommend it to anyone and everyone

Hi Elizabeth, You are very wise but I must confess that your husband is a bit like me ! Good luck to you both. Peter
I had the original Karcher which I purchased around 20 years ago and only last year replaced it with the K4. I have tried other makes but personally I swear by Karcher for pressure washers around the home. I am sure that the more industrial types are superior but at the price I would not invest when the Karcher does the job that I need. Thank you Peter for showing your experience and I agree the detergent is not worth the extra it costs.
Within a few days after seeing this video I searched out and bought one of these instruments. I live in a very large home near Atlanta, GA, USA; and we "pressure cleaned" the entire house. It is every thing Peter said it was. I have no leaks. The handle did not stay up after it was installed. Also, the "Dirt Blaster" wand failed quickly. I called Karcher and they had a new one here in less than 5 days. It works like a charm. I did not tell them about the handle, because I simply forgot about it. But I am going to call them and have them ship me a new one. I am sure they will. One word of caution. I only had a 5/8", 100" hose from my spigot; on a large part of my house; after using a 50' on it where I could reach. There was a noticeable reduction in the strength of the spray when pressure washing; for whatever it's worth. But it was NOT weak enough to keep us from using it to clean our home; albeit a slower time. Next time I will buy a 3/4" , 100' hose. I am sure that will help immeasurably when it comes to pressure. Thank you Peter for demonstrating this amazing device. We love it! And you too dear person.

a word of advice peter, make sure the washer is stored well in winter, a very hard frost of minus 3 or 4 will ruin the pump if it has residual water in it when put away. because of the plastic parts in it,even inside a garage if it gets down lower than that, ive lost more than one pressure washer like that, i now store it inside a cupboard in my garage with an old blanket round it. commercial machines have metal in their pumps and are not as susceptible.

The snow foam attachment and auto glym polar blast snow foam works wonders with the K2! Fill to the first line from the bottom and top up with water, run it with the foam at full, leave for 10 minutes and go over the car with a sponge or mitt, then rinse.

don't get the lance that close to your paint it will damage it over time.
I’m an Aussie and have owned and used a Karcher for years. Our patio cleaners come with a hard bristle “skirt” around the bottom so you don’t get that harsh plastic against concrete scraping sound. The skirt also protects the user from debris that may be kicked up by the cleaner. Karcher also make a foam cannon, which really amplifies the cleaning power of the detergent. Great little unit though. I wouldn’t be without one now, especially during the pandemic when you don’t know who has handled the car wash guns and brushes at a commercial car wash.

Thank you so much for sharing this superb video. As someone said, you have a natural presentation style. Well edited too! I also appreciate your honesty.....quite a rare attribute these days! I have a 10-15yr old JCB but I can't buy a 'rotating nozzle patio cleaning head' to fit as every manufacturer, stupidly, has not standardised. I've just ordered an adaptor which might just work (if I'm lucky) and now that I've seen your video I'm even more desperate to obtain one of these rotary cleaning heads. If that fails I'm encouraged that the model you demonstrated will be adequate for my needs which helps to clear the fog of Karcher model proliferation. NoAxe

I've actually borrowed a Karcher K2 from a friend to clean my patio and paths (45+ sq metres in total) and I must say I'm quite impressed. I'd seen various reviews on Amazon, some of them not good, but it seems to do the job nicely for me. Borrowing one has certainly got me thinking of buying my own. About 10 years ago I did buy a smaller Karcher model. But not knowing anything much about pressure washers I was sure it would be ok. Sadly though I found it very lacking in power as the jet of water was thinner than a pencil. It would have taken 10 minutes to clean one paving slab. The K2 is MUCH better, having the power you'd expect to tackle garden dirt and grime.

Hi Brian, I am still very happy with the one that I bought. Cheers. Peter
Well thank you Sir! As many others have commented.. What a great descriptive video.. I think it's fair to say that we assume that the newest model of anything is the best. But the K2 does the trick nicely! No doubt cheaper than the latest model I would think!
the dvorak played by the cello is a nice touch....move the wand slower for better cleaning...dont forget to do the bottom of the house where the concrete joins....theres green mold there
Thank you SO much! A clear and straightforward video. In no way would I have been able to put this together without your help. I now need to wait for it to stop raining!

I need your email address. KZread no longer has a private messaging service and so in order to get in touch you need to place a comment on this video with your email address. The KZread software should identify and send it to the spam folder for The New Brit Workshop. Nobody will be able to see your email address except me. I will then send you a message by email and delete your comment so that it does not end up in the public domain. Were we to do this the other way around then my comment, with my email address, would appear for all the world to see. Peter
At last, a decent well thought through review of the Karcher pressure washer. Thank you!

Hi Mike, I have never had any comment from Karcher - it may be an issue in their PR or Marketing area. Peter
