I've seen a few threads about this already but I'm looking for a new pressure washer

A Nilfisk C110 sounds ideal but all of the snow foam lances I can find, including THIS don't say they have a Nilfisk attachment

Any ideas? Or is it the same as one of the other brands

Cheers
 
The C110 is a top piece of kit - nicely priced and certainly does the job.
I bought good snow lance, attachment type as post above.
Well worth the cash - metal motor as opposed to plastic motors on many similarly priced washers.
 
Great pressure washer for the price! Paid £45 for mine about 6 months ago and it's still going strong. Bought a lance attachment over at detailing world which came with a bigger bottle than the one from CYC and looks a bit more sturdy.
 
To anyone with pressure washers, make sure you house them in an insulated place over the cold Winter months. If they freeze, the internals can crack as water expands and its game over. I learned the hard way having been caught out during the snow last Winter.
 
I have a Nilfisk C120 and it hasnt missed a beat. I do find the Snow Foam lance a bit of a gimmick though, particularly the mess it makes on the drive in winter!
 
Got the C110 too and can't fault it. To save your washer through the winter months run the motor with the water off to empty the pump of water.
 
Is there much better than a karcher for the price? I told the Mrs to get me one for crimbo as i really can't think of anything else. Plus there down to £150 in Tesco.
 
I bought the Nilfisk C110.3-5 AUTO 1400W Cycle and Auto Pressure Washer last week, its excellent. I was told that they are far better than the karchers, and highly recommended.

Just type Snow Foam Lance nilfisk into google and it brings up loads of sites . . . .all around the £45 mark.

Or make sure its drained.
 
already stuck mine in the external combi boiler cupboard with a frost protector. (External cupboard has a thermostat set to a cooler, but warm enough temp to prevent the boiler & pipework from freezing)
 
I can't believe I still have not bought the snowfoam addon that SoliD has yet :p

My Nilfisk is "about" 3 years old now and I paid £41 for it brand new and to this day it has not skipped a beat. Such a good piece of kit. People I know have bought Karcher units long after I got my nilfisk and they've all had problems or failed completely!

Mine has been in the shed all year for the entirety of the 3 years so the cold weather doesn't seem to affect it at all. Serious business!

not sure on the model, but one they had at £160 is down to £80 at present, along with tescos spend over £75 and get a tenner off, means they can be had for £70. A guy at work just bought 10.
 
I've got the same one, it was left to rot for a few years (my dad bought it for a one time use thing ages ago), worked first time when acquired it
