Hey all,
Looking for recommendations for a power washer for the car and general garden cleaning. Budget €100-€150, are Karcher and Bosch the recommended brands to get or are you just paying for the name? Would like something reliable and which has accessories available.
Any feedback appreciated thanks!

I bought a power washer last week in Lidl Parkside for 90 euro and it’s great.

I've a Nilfisk with 10 years.
Would highly recommend.
Has a metal pump where as others at the time had plastic pumps for the most unless you buy a high spec karcher.

Cheers for the feedback.
Do you use the LIDL one on your car and is it powerful enough? What bar is it?
I'll look into the Nilfisks too thanks.
