Things that break prematurely

First high power jet wash....alledgedley the best, a Karcher. Burnt out in 18 months.
2nd.... B & long Q's own jet wash. Lasted 4 years granted, but it's problee only had about 20/30 hours use in total, and THAT has now coughed its' clogs today.
Doesn't appear to have burnt out, but it's stopped workin'. What do i do? Strip it down and look for a loose wire, and waste hours looking for a fault, or chuck it on the tip like the other one?
Checked the fuse, and waggled the plug, but nowt.

It's simply NOT good enough that these machines last so short a time.

My first husband only lasted 6 years before burning out  This second one is proving to be much more robust

Is it or That wears 'em out?

I have had a Karcher for about 18 years.  Admittedly not heavy use but after the first year or so... it wouldn't start without a little help.   So... I drilled a hole in the handle to store a 4" nail which I used to spin the fan.  Once I started it, it would run OK for the session until the next time I wanted it.  It was irritating but predictable, I never bothered to replace it for the sake of a ten-second start up routine a few times a year.

On the other hand you could do what I do and run the vehicle through the local car wash once a month and have it valeted once a year. Another effective alternative is a bucket and sponge.
Why do you have to complicate everything with these "must have" toys when you know they don't ever work?
Barnum had it right ~ One born every minute.

You haven't seen the crud that gets on my vehicles after a trip down 'The Swamp' have you?
Bucket and sponge?

Now get back in your kennel with a nice juicy bone, and come back out when you know what you're talkin' about. OK?


GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Uhm ~ You are not the first person to own an off road vehicle and use it off road you know.
A garden hose with adjustable nozzle was good enough for my purposes but it's your money.

I used mine for outdoor washing facilities and paths, roofs and stonework, pools and caravans - indispensable.

You make him sound like a vacuum cleaner.

You mean that BM is the Dyson of sexual partners?

[Nick]

Our Dyson is useless. It looks at dirt but lets it go.
