Hi All

I've got a Karcher 220 preassure washer, which is great when it works but it
has four replacement cylinder heads, three under warantee and one a paid
for.

They say there is no known design fault, but it seems too much of a
coincidence to me.

Does anyone have any experience of these or can you recommend a better
make/model.

Thanks

Stephen

How long is the warranty on one of those?
If it happened 3 times to me under warranty I certainly wouldn't be paying
for it to be fixed a fourth time. A strong letter to customer services cc'd
to the Managing Director has always worked for me in the past.

I had problems with mine and it then died just outside of the 12 month
warranty.
Karcher didnt want to know and were really poor with their customer service
imo. I know of 2 other people at work with similiar experiences
I personally wouldn't buy another Karcher. They are very overrated imo
