    Hi does anyone know is the karcher K4full control home pressure washer any good?

    They are on special offer in woodie for €270, usual price €365. Any other recommendations?

    They have a 130 bar rating, would this be any good for removing moss from a tarmacadin drive way?

    Thanks

    Two weeks ago you could have bought the Aldi Workzone washer for €99. This operates at 120 bar and imo is every bit as good as the Karcher. The pump went on my Dad's Karcher K4.99 and Karcher wanted about €120 to fix, and there is only one place to go, and its only open 9-5 weekdays and closed for lunch..

    I agree with homer. Karcher is overpriced and overrated. If you're only using the washer occasionally (diy use)
    then keep a look out for Aldi and Lidl.

    While the "tree huggers" wont agree, use a moss killer like MMC PRO at the correct dilution.
    120/130 bar is a bit light for what you want

    Or sprinkle some cheap washing powder on the moss and when it turns brown give it a good stiff brushing.
