Me neither as I don't have a Karcher so I can't compare. I have a Nilfisk Alto pressure washer and it does the job fine. Nilfisk is the largest company in the world making pressure washers and industrial vacuum cleaners......

I have a small NIlfisk pressure washer which had very good reviews.When reading reading the K`Archer reviews i found a lot of people found they broke. Take a look at the reviews on Amazon and see what you think.

A large cleaning company that i worked for a couple years ago always prefered Nilfisk over Karcher as they tend to last longer and have less failures.

i bought a karcher last year thinking it was good quality. It was complete rubbish and broke last week. Never again....

Main differences

Karcher:
Smaller models have plastic pumps, the larger ones have metal ones.
12 month warranty.

Nilfisk:
all models have metal pumps
24 month warranty

There are other things to look out for some models have brush motors and the better ones have induction motors, you can often tell by the weight of the machine as induction motors weigh more.

Oh and dont get bogged down by wattage of motor, water flow and psi (pressure) mean so much more.

its really personal choice at the end of the day, they both do the same sorts of accessories.

Hope that helps

Bosch are pretty good as well, In fact although I hate to say it I have never bought a Bosch tool that wasn't bomb proof. The little old rechargeable battery screwdriver drill I bought 15 years ago is still going strong on the original cells.
