So for this job I need a reliable and powerful pressure washer. To see full details of what I do for a pond service see HERE. Nilfisk's entry level models tend to have more powerful motors and come with an aluminium pump head rather than a plastic one for durability. If you just need a pressure washer for light cleaning, then most no-frills machines come with just one lance, which is a long tube with a nozzle on the end. The nozzle will usually provide variable pressure – when you twist the nozzle, you can adjust the spray from a powerful narrow jet to a more broad gentle fan. Fewer owners of Karcher pressure washers experienced faults within the first seven years of owning it - 8% said they had (sample size: 2,271) versus 16% of Nilfisk owners (sample size: 185).

Pressure washers (also known as jet washers and power washers) deliver a powerful concentrated jet of water to remove dirt more efficiently than a brush, and using less water than you would with a garden hose.The unit is nice and solid not too heavy, but heavy enough. The hose length is great at 10 metres, and does have a winder to keep it tidy, though did find using this does seem to topple a bit with the weight, found if you stand behind the pressure wash and support against your body the winder works fine. The power cable is an ok length and can be wrapped on the side. Wheeling the unit around seems OK the wheels are big and solid so can go over uneven ground ok.

Nilfisk models are typically more lightweight compared to Karcher models. They are constructed with light materials to make them easier to move around.Karcher were the first to introduce smart technology to pressure washers so you can connect them to your smartphone via an app. Variable fan-jet: also called variable pressure lances, these allow you to vary the force of the jet from a focused point to a broad fan. This all depends on how much you can afford and how powerful and durable you want your pressure washer to be. Detergent tank: we found built-in but removable detergent tanks more convenient than bottle attachments in our tests.
