Oh dear. I genuinely believed that I was buying a quality brand with Karcher. Well known name, sold everywhere, parts easy to source, seems like the ideal thing, right? WRONG WRONG WRONG! I bought my first Karcher to replace a cheapo Halford's special that had suddenly ceased to function. I wasted over £100 on a Karcher K3.99MB before that too suddenly gave up the ghost.

I brought one of these in August 2007 and have used it about ten times before it sprung a leak - spurting water through the vent.
This was to replace an older Karcher 630 washer which went the same way - and looking at reviews elsehwere clearly a Karcher feature!
Karcher seem dis-interest offering to sell me a re-engineered model to replace it - probably one of the many returned???
Nilfisk do a 2 year warranty (C120 being similar to the K3), Karcher just a year.
Karcher appears to...
