Wouldn't touch another Karcher.
I've had two of 'em and both have failed with the same fault just out of warranty. Inlet to the compressor starts leaking and water P's out of the casing. Uneconomical to repair because it has to be returned to an approved repair agent and costs almost the same as a new one. You can't even attempt a diy fix because you need special tools just to get the casing open.
Like you, I now have a Nilfisk that's lasted about four years so far without a problem.
