Default Nilfisk pressure washer.

Been on the hunt for a reasonable pressure washer I have confused myself senseless with reviews & specs of various makes & models.
Finally found the one below has induction motor instead of universal type seems to be of reasonable spec are any members using this or had similar before?

Will also been looking for a da polisher soon as well.

I have been using a nilfisk 110 model for a number of years. Apart from the 'O' ring on the hose failing after one years heavy use I can recommend them above the equivalent priced Karcher.

I have a Nilfisk having changed from a Karcher.

The impeller on the Karcher broke, because they are plastic. The Nilfisk have metal ones (so im told). Im not sure what model I have but Its been fine and does a grand job.

If you want something different to Karcher, I have recently bought a Hozelock Compact 100. Came with a free decking scrubber, all for £65 delivered from good old ebay. Can't compare it to Nilfisk as I have never used one, but it certainly rates against a Karcher.
