    I currently own a gas powered pressure washer and I'm now looking for an electric one, I'd like to go with Karcher as well so I'm also curious on the feed back :computer:

    FWIW I went through two Campbell Hausfeld pressure washers in 8 months. I finally said screw it and spent the extra $50 or so on the Karcher. I got the 1800psi electric version and I've had it for 6 months now and have yet to have an issue :thumb:

    Also: I did some research on the steamer as I found out that a few months ago they had one. It's seriously underpowered for the price, and you'd be better off with vapor steamer that can be had on ebay for ~$600-800 that puts out a lot more PSI.

    I'm interested in some feedback as well. I've been looking for a good electric Karcher OTC and it's damn near impossible to find one here in Edmonton :(

    I am on my second Karcher electric. My first was a 1200 psi model. Very entry level and surprisingly it last me almost 8 years lol. I upgraded to the 1500 psi model and couldn't be happier. For what I use it for it's perfect. I really don't have the need fora gas powered 2300 psi model etc.

    I think it got my Karcher on sale at Walmart for $99.00. I have since gotten all of the connectors for my foam cannon etc so I am good to go :)

    my current karcher is a small one, maybe 1200psi? its leaking now so i need a new one. i saw an 15-1800 psi one at sams club for around $160. I just don't want to buy a karcher and have the same problem happen with what is going on with mine now. but at the same time i dont want to drop 600 on a camspray

    I have a 1500psi electric, I picked it up at Lowe's or HD I think for around $100. I don't know if you'd need anything stronger than that, it works great with a foam cannon as well.

    My 1800PSI unit from OSH was around $160-180.
