4.0 out of 5 stars Portable pressure washer, February 21, 2009

By	Josh (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Karcher K 2.16 1,400 psi 1.3 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)

Just used for the first time, about 2.5 hours on a ~650 square feet patio, which hadn't been cleaned for at least two years. Didn't use detergent or anything, but the difference is incredible. Used the high pressure wand to blast all the filth off, then went back through with the vario wand to rinse it off. The washer didn't have any problems, stalls or hiccups throughout the nearly constant 2.5 hours of use.

Very happy with the product considering the price and especially how compact and lightweight it is. It's not a big industrial pressure washer, but it works perfectly for a smallish house, and would be absolutely brilliant for a townhome. It restored my patio, brought my patio furniture back to like-new, and I'm going to use it to wash the car next.

1.0 out of 5 stars Caveat Emptor, July 23, 2009

By	West Ender, Galveston (Galveston, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Karcher K 2.16 1,400 psi 1.3 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)

If you're considering a Karcher electric power washer, you should know that Karcher will not warranty their products unless they're purchased at an "approved outlet." They play this little game by talking about that requirement on their website, but fail to mention that if you buy from eBay or anyone else they consider "not authorized," you get no warranty whatsoever.

I'm out $200 because, as one of the people they have the nerve to call a 'customer care representative' told me, "You should have read the warranty card that came with your product."

When asked how a consumer could accomplish that before purchase, considering the warranty card is inside the box with the washer, she was stumped for an answer. When I asked why they don't disclose on their website that they won't warranty products from unapproved retailers, more silence ensued.

Very disappointing to encounter a high-profile brand with deceptive business practices.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for an electric based washer, August 5, 2009

By	Andy Foster (Burlington VT) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Karcher K 2.16 1,400 psi 1.3 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)

I've had this for over a month now.

Here's my pros and cons list.

Pros:
1) Good quality. Seem sturdy and not flimsy.
2) Pretty powerful for the size. Can do the job if you know its limitations.

Cons:
1) Kinda hard to attach/detach the hose. Takes a bit of practice to master it in a subtle way.


For the price and size - it's a great buy as long as you know what you are using it for - small jobs mostly.
