Pressure washer advice

JuzaMum

I am thinking of buying a pressure washer to clean up my driveway, patio and garden walls. Looking at B & Q as I have some vouchers. I have never had one before and don't know what I am looking for. If the cheaper end of the pricing any good? Do I need to buy a hose too? Any recommendations or advice please?

You will need a hose to connect it to a tap, the washer won't come with one of those
what sort of drive is it ? - if its brick blocks, there will be a good chance you will wash most/a lot of the sand out of the joints 
The patio cleaner heads can be good for a quick go over but they do reduce the effectiveness, so still might need to go over again with just the jet on teh stubborn stuff

Really just buy the best you can afford in terms of operating pressure and flow rate.

I would go with the Stanley 1.8KW if your sticking with B and Q.

Personally i don't believe Karcher are worth the premium.

I have a Karcher (my 2nd) & a T-racer, it's brilliant on the patio. A mid range is fine for most people.
