Rotary Patio Washers

[GMX]

Whilst I'm pleased with the cleaning power of my new Nilfisk E140, I thought I might buy a rotary patio washer attachment as there's an awful lot of splashback when cleaning the drive and patio. i was all set to go and get one and then I started to read the user reviews on amazon and elsewhere  Now I'm unsure

The consensus of the reviews seems to suggest the domestic rotary patio washers, of all brands, not just Nilfisk are just not up to the job.  They are poorly constructed, and cannot deliver anywhere near the cleaning ability of the commercial models they are mimicking.  Which of course cost £1K+ and are driven by petrol powered washers of at least 300 bar

I was going to get one of these https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/ke-patio-washer-plus/

Has anyone here got one?  Was it worth buying?

I've got a Karcher one...absolutely useless!  Ended up cleaning the entire patio with the normal jet 'wand' (is that the right word?) instead.

Oh One of the reviews thought his old Karcher one was superior to his new Nilfisk

Is that Karchers equivalent to spinning pencil jet which Nilfisk call a Tornado, that sounds like a turbo

Yeah that's the one!  It's a bit too rough for cars with lacquer peel or vinyl graphics so did well on the patio lol!
