This is the new Nilfisk E145.3, 10M hose on a reel, the whole unit is on wheels and so easy to connect up.

The power is awesome, have a look at this little test I video'd https://instagram.com/p/1Vhj1GC4SK/

They're ok, Bosch are quite cheap and Karcher just go on their name, everyone knows Karcher. A lot of the internals in Karchers are plastic where the Nilfisk are metal. The build quality is exceptional.

looks suspiciously like my neighbours I borrowed yesterday to do our joint wall for him, just about done when the gun started pooring water out of it where the tube locks in, looks like worn or some rubber washer bust or fallen out, half pressure now. Probably get a new gun would think.

Most likely a rubber 0-ring. Stick a new one in a a bit of PTFE tap on the thread and she'll be mint!
