Are they any good.Is there better value to be got out there.I would be using it for sheds,slats yards ect.I am in limerick so was looking to get one close enough for a good back up service if needed.

    As far as I know the best pumps are comet and inter pump
    Inter pump supposed to be the better pump.
    Comet are very popular,just ask what type of pump are on their hire fleet of washers.
    Joe McKenna selling me this great petrol washer ,I asked how many he had on hire fleet ,none.

    they are a great powerwasher. you wont need to worry about a back up service because you wont need it. Make sure you get enough hose with it. A minimum of 60 ft.

    I bought a PTO washer a few years back for 780 in the coop superstore,
    It has a hawk pump with no gearbox. we run it in the 1000rpm box with the tractor ticking over.
    As the lads are saying below you shouldnt need any back up as they tend to last , just take care of it when its frosty, and get plenty of hose with it.
    800 with a gearbox sounds like a fair price to me
