Buying a hi-pressure cleaning hose

[Jimbuna]

This one is what I've used for a couple of years now and is used to wash the concrete patio, timber decking, car etc:

I guess the bigger the numbers the more pressure? (and the more expensive!)

Nah....just wait for the regular sales at B&Q etc.

The more expensive models don't tend to sell and benefit from bigger reductions

I picked mine up for £110

They don't look like they do that model over here and this is the closest one I can find to that spec in the local catalogue: http://www.karcher.com.au/aus/Produc...s/16364230.htm

I'll price it up and see what they are charging for them.

If your after patio/car cleaning etc. the lower models will suffice because they all have a pretty good water pressure rating.

Oh yeah there is such a thing as too much pressure. The last thing you want is to strip the paint off!

Rgr that....I usually change over to the low pressure lance for use on the car.

How embarrassing would that be? driving into a paint garage and telling them you've stripped the paint off your vehicle
