Won't your dad now the difference if you bought another type? ;-)

Another Karcher otherwise it'll cost you well more for an industrial
jobby.

Aldi sell one around this time of year: around 75 quids. I bought one
last year --- it knocks the socks off my previous cheap job from B&Q
(which just conked out after about a year.

I'm pretty much sure that it's an "unbranded" Karcher: just have a look
at the two, and decide for yourself.

It is usually Lavor that Lidl sell. I bought one a couple of years ago for
£90 with the following spec:
2550 Watt
160 Bar
530 L / Hr
10m hose

Certainly served me well except the hose splitting but Lavor sent a
replacement no questions answered.

To the OP have a look at this Power Washer FAQ
