i seen this petrol one that seems to be a decent price. https://www.parkerbrand.co.uk/petrol-pressure-jet-washer-6-5hp-engine-3100-psi
what you guys think? or should i stick with electric? and if so whats good value for money that will work with my nilfisk accessories.
I use a diesel one at work and having all the different size quick release nozzles is great

This is the one I use at my work place (it very powerful) https://www.sealey.co.uk/product/5637193932/pressure-washer-290bar-900lhr-10hp-diesel

you seen the price of that one? shame i cant transmit a slap to you through the internet.

Bluecube: i gathered they would be chinese ones since the are priced far lower than anything else i have come across. i can see on that site too that you can get spare parts for the washers. i dont need any snowfoam dispensers since im just gonna use it for block paving cleaning. i used to have one of those round patio cleaner thingys that attach to the nilfisk and it rotates and cleans the floor. do those sorts of attachments fit to these petrol powered ones?

also how much run time am i looking at one that petrol powered one? it has a 3.6L tank.

Obviously, you’ll have your own opinion on the flat surface cleaners but in my experience, they’re a complete waste of time on these low powered pressure washers. You’d use either the green or yellow nozzles which spray a fan of water and do a quicker and better clean. To answer your question, I seriously doubt that the Nilfisk parts will fit anything but Nilfisk pressure washers.

Off the top of my head, you’ll get about a couple of hours run time from a full tank and constant use.

Just an update i got a petrol one in the end. A power king 250. Very impressed it made short work of the block paving. Full tank 3.7l it runs for 2hours or more and was enough to finish all the work i needed it for.
Very noisy but has crazy power. Somehow i find maintenance the fun part. Oil changes etc
