I've just got one of these as my petrol one is often a bit cumbersome (I was actually just going to get a chuck key for a drill so I could start my petrol one, but saw their promo obviously worked on me ).

I've had a £30 pressure washer before and it was pretty terrible, but been impressed by this so far.
It comes with a 'turbo lance' (often £20 on their own) as well as the standard one - the turbo lance is particularly good for getting mud off bikes as I believe it has a fast moving pencil jet of water that spins in a cone. Cleaned ginger's clay-biased mud off the 200 quicker than the petrol one would and is much quieter too - though does mean you have to have an electric cable going to the back garden as well as water. |

I got a similar Karcher for Christmas ... was reduced down to £60 or so.
Best pressie by far - is actually more 'powerfull' than the garahe ones
