Review – Karcher K4 Compact Home Pressure Washer

2nd June 2014 By Susan Mann Leave a Comment

Karcher K4 Compact Pressure Washer
As part of the Karcher Clean Ambassadors program I was sent a K4 Compact Home Pressure Washer to review. Living in Scotland, the weather is wet, wet, wet, this means that the patio’s, ground, roofs get covered in yuck, moss, etc. In our back garden we have decking and a patio made up of slabbing. This gets very grubby, so when the sun comes out it’s time to get it weeded and cleaned before it’s play time. 
Last month was the first real sunshine at the weekend that we had. I got up early one Saturday morning, well I do that every day, but this time I got outside and got my hands dirty weeding, cleaning and sweeping the garden before hubby got the fun part of using the pressure washer.
So how does a pressure washer work? The K4 Compact Home Pressure Washer combines power and energy as well as having a cooled induction motor to prolong the longevity of the product. There is a quick connect hose which makes thing quick and simple to use without it all becoming tangled. The handle is adjustable making it easy to hold and use and had a lance and dirt blaster lance for different projects. The dirt blaster lance is set to give a 50% better cleaning power than a normal high pressure one.With this kit come a patio cleaner and detergent which is fantastic and very useful. And this model comes with a 3 year guarantee.
Here is he pictures of the patio before. Yucky isn’t it?

Here we are setting up the pressure washer. It took a few minutes.

Setting up the K4
Here is the picture of hubby pressure washing the garden. He got all the fun. This is definitely one of those fun things to do. Guys love this, gadgets and power.

Using the K4 Pressure Washer
I took this video as well as the above picture from the upstairs window. You can see the K4 Compact Home Pressure Washer in action. Yes it’s a bit noisy, but nothing troublesome.
The patio clean works very well with the detergent in that it doesn’t spray the water everywhere and dirty water at that. It’s a bit like using a big hoover. You can purchase more detergent, it’s not overly expensive and I think that if you’re using it once a year it’s perfectly doable.
The outcome…..

It’s still drying a little here, but you can see a massive difference.

Back Garden
Karcher products just work and they work well. They are well made and simple to use, a few clicks and you’re ready to go, this is what I love about them. You don’t even need to have a running tap to use the K4, you can use a large bucket, paddling pool, anything like that. It’s powerful and it’s awesome, it really does blast that dirt away. I was impressed by this and how quickly it cleaned. 

Before And After
What do you think about the before and after pictures above? Impressive isn’t it? I can’t recommend this enough. It’s awesome and it works. Don’t forget it can be used for all sorts of cleaning from the car, house, playhouse and many many more.
