Karcher is a well known brand when it comes to electric pressure washers; however we had to rate their popular medium-duty unit quite poorly (see below). On the other hand, they also offer some interesting models for lighter cleaning jobs – so take a look at those, with ratings, prices and reviews:
Medium-duty electric
A bit less powerful but with a nice 4-wheel design – very easy to move around (dragging it behind you) and use.

Offers the most pressure but also many disadvantages – it’s expensive, prone to tipping over and the build quality isn’t good.

Light-duty electric
An inexpensive and extra lightweight unit for basic cleaning tasks around your home. Only there’s just a siphon tube for detergent, no tank or bottle.
