Hello,
Whilst in Aldi, I saw a poster advertising a pressure washer for sale a week on Thursday.
I got the impression that this group thought quite highly of the previous Aldi pressure washers. It was said they were made by Karcher and they were in Karcher yellow.
BUT... the poster shows a blue bodied pressure washer this time round and the cost is only £59.99. This seems a bit too cheap to me. Could it be that this model is not as well spec'ed as the previous ones they have sold?
From what I have been able to find via google:
Old New
Power 2.1 kW 2.0 kW Max Pressure* 150 bar 160 bar Flow (L/h) 450 360 hose length (m) 6 5
Cleaning effect**1.875 1.6
- usual disclaimer about max pressure not being operating pressure presumably applies
**based on pressure washer faq
The flow seems considerably more on the old model. Notwithstanding the pressure figures are probably massaged, both have a cleaning effect
Certainly the old model has an induction motor, it's description said so, but I am unsure about the new model. It does however, come on wheels, so if it is heavy enough to require wheels perhaps it has an induction motor and metal parts?
Does anyone know more about the new model? Is it worth getting, or is it best to wait for the old one to come back (if it ever will?)
Thanks, Stephen.
