(the (low pressure) hose kicks slightly when you release the trigger) I subsequently bought a Bosch 1250, which has been faultless so far, interestingly the solenoid seems ... Read review

Advantages: power, speed and the fact nothing else works with 'slime' onm the pathway
Disadvantages: You need to dress for dirt, it does through up the muck

I bought this for patio and path cleaning and was amazed by the whole machine. It cleaned off moss, dirt and a greeeny slim which had stayed put after being treated with boiling water, bleach and scrubbing. Fantastic! I have a very large area to cover and the machine worked without hitch for three hours! The ease of use is also impressive and putting it together from the box took seconds and was a breeze. So far everyone who has visited the house ...
...much brighter and cleaner the property looks - although it never seemed to be that bad before the improvement is amazing to say the least. It is worth buying with the accessories, the dirt buster lance is brilliant, but the round pathway and patio cleaner does reduce the amount of time neeeded for cleaning.

Except for one or two things that let the garden down. Green slimy moss on my patio tiles and weeds sticking up between each tile. My patio needed a good scrub and de-weeding. If you think I was going to get a brush and scrub it, then mess around with weed ...
...and got out my B&Q pressure washer that I had bought a couple of years ago. I cannot recall the price I paid, but it was about £50. I am sure the prices will not have altered that much in the last couple of years. If you want to save yourself a lot of time, hard work and get sparkling results, I suggest you go out and buy one this weekend. This pressure washer is electric powered and uses a lot less water 360 litres per hour (approx) A garden hose ... Read review

The Karcher K090 is a small, compact pressure washer, it does not use large volumes of water, nor does it profess to be the best, but I have had one for a couple of years now, and I can actually recommend it, and that is saying something coming from me!
