KärcherPressure Washer K1700 Cube, CETA Certified, 3 Spray Nozzles, Detergent Tank, for Cars, Driveways, Siding, Patios, 1.2 GPM

I bought this to do small jobs around the house, including my cars. I have a full size gas powered pressure washer that I use for large jobs like my circular driveway etc. I I got tired of lugging that out ever time I needed one. This little baby fit the bill. It’s lightweight and easy to move around while working, and compact enough to not take a lot of storage room, yet It’s powerful enough to do my lanai and soffits. Can’t say enough good things about its quality build and performanceGreat choice if you need one for around the house. Thumbs up

I had been wanting to downgrade from my gas powered 2600 psi pressure washer because 2600 is just too powerful to use on cars. After doing research and reading reviews I selected this model. I put it through its paces yesterday doing the back patio and two cars (with additional snow foam cannon).Coming from a gas powered machine I really didn't know what to expect. The machine did a great job.No leaks, which really surprised me. I have to believe that those who experienced leaks might have cross threaded the connections.If you are coming from a gas powered to electric you'll appreciate that you only hear the machine when you're pressing the trigger. Unlike the gas powered engine that is loud and always on. No ear protection needed, although always a good idea.The machine didn't seem to get hot, something I was expecting and surprised that it didn't.The size and portability combined with the cleaning ability really impressed me. Swapping out this cube for my gas powered full size pressure washer helps me reclaim valuable garage space, a big win.Upgrade by adding quick connects for the machine to pressure hose and pressure hose to gun and possibly longer hose or connect two 20 footers.Gun is pretty standard. I do wish the extension was not a bayonet type connection because I'd like to use the gun without the extension when connecting foam cannon. Might upgrade to different stubby gun.I will probably disconnect the soap feed and go directly from the container (using a filter at the tip of a longer tube) because I don't want to leave any unused soap in there and I don't see a way of draining it. I also found myself filling it a few times. I wish I knew what the feed ratio is soap to water, but I'm guessing it's 1:1.I could probably get more foam out of something that had a higher GPM but it worked good enough. Very happy with this.

Machine is goodHOSE IS AWFULAND WHY DO I NEED AN ADAPTER TO ATTACH A GARDEN HOSE… WHEN ITS A PRESSURE WASHER ?have tried 3 garden hoses all 3 leak and I'm beyond annoyed (all premium $70+ hoses)

I purchased this as a replacement to my sunjoe washer that crapped out.1st I like that it doesn’t have proprietary fittings like my sunjoe did. 2nd it’s small , lightweight and the basket attached for storage , makes putting it away a breeze once I’m done with it. I like the foot pedal on and off switch and the fact that the inlet and outlets for the garden hose and pressure washer hose are not on the same side. So no worries about tangling hoses together. In terms of accessories it comes with a 20 ft hose , the gun and wand , a turbo nozzle & a 15 degree nozzle tip , and a 25 ft power cord with gfci protection. I don’t use the soap dispenser at all. In terms of light to medium duty work , I have used it clean everything from my charcoal grill, a rug , my fencing , and walkways and driveway, and of course my use for my car.The measurements in terms of PSI, and gpm are fairly accurate and it does a great job in terms of the uses I mentioned earlier. It has a 3 year warranty which is excellent . My only downsides are the same as with most pressure washers, the included hose sucks , it’s too short and kinks & coils a lot , I purchased a 50 ft Uberflex hose to remedy that. It comes with a soap nozzle , a turbo nozzle and a 15 degree nozzle , I highly recommend getting a proper set of nozzles with different degrees of spray, I have a set of 2.5 orifice nozzles with different spray patterns , and 3.0 orifice nozzles which help to increase my gpm slightly. Also I use a different wand then what it comes with , a shorter spray gun so I can have more control of my sprayer , and a different wand attachment , the included accessories are ok to begin with , but I highly recommend purchasing different accessories then what it comes with.oh and get some quick disconnects , they make attaching and detaching hoses and equipment so much faster and more convenient. Excellent purchase overall.
