Karcher K7 Corded Electric Compact Pressure Washer 180 Bar New 2019 Model 240v

Product Information

So what are the differences? The compact version is more compact, it is the same spec as the full control counterpart. So the engine is the same, in terms of accessories you get a lance, however, the compact version is more basic and doesn’t have the visual settings of the full control version. Depending on which model you are looking at, they all have the same spec. For example, if you were looking at getting the K5 Pressure washer, there is no difference in performance whether you go for the home, premium or compact. They all have a 2100-watt motor, giving 145 bar pressure. They all come with an 8m hose and have a flow rate of 500 litres per minute. So the internal power and pressure are the same, whichever model you choose. This system performs beautifully. It’s much easier than using a separate detergent bottle, and you can also adjust the ratio at which the machine mixes the shampoo with water, meaning that you can decide how soapy or watery you want the detergent to be. Spray lances are always within easy reach and everything can be compactly stored on the device once cleaning is complete.

The LCD display, along with the bluetooth connectivity, is another feature that Karcher has put into place to make this pressure washer easy to use.

The Premium Smart Control versions connect via BlueTooth to an app to assist you with choosing the right setting. With all of that extra power behind it, it’s hardly surprising that this pressure washer did a fantastic job !These power washers are equipped with a reel for the pressure hose. This is the difference with the power control and smart control versions. Karcher Power Control (formerly: Full Control) Every single model comes with a different range. There are the Premium versions, Power Control versions (formerly full control), Home Kits, Car Kits, Compact versions and, for the top models, the Premium Smart Control versions. Karcher Premium That said, although 180 bar may be its maximum, this pressure washer provides a little less than that when you have it on its strongest setting. However, it comes with a boost function that you can use to give yourself an extra 15 bar of pressure whenever you’re struggling with stubborn dirt, which is very useful.

The fact that this machine has a suction hose helps too. It means that you can use your pressure washer pretty much anywhere that you can transport water to since you’re not limited to only using a tap. Same motor, pump & warranty as the K7 Full Control, just easier to transport, easier to store & much better value for money! It’s clear that Karcher has strived to make this pressure washer as easy to use as possible. With its large and sturdy wheels, along with its telescopic handle , this machine has great manoeuvrability. This is just as well since it weighs 17.76 kg when it’s empty, which would be difficult for some to lift. Its weight increases when the machine has water running through it. There is an optimal Kärcher high pressure cleaner for every need. We have rounded up Kärcher’s 5 models and created a guide on what they are great for and where they stand compared to their other models.
