Really disappointed
on April 9, 2020
Posted by: Swanky Detailing
Gender:Male
I bought this Karcher 1700 based off a bunch of recommendations, but I can say my experience has been rather lackluster. My first one broke down after three months. Just wouldn’t start all of a sudden, i made sure to follow operating guide religiously. My second one has the same problems as the first. Frequently drops in power while I’m using it and I hear hear the unit trying to keep pressure but while I’m squeezing there is barely any pressure coming out at times. Again, wish I went with a different model or brand altogether due to this experience. I’m a mobile auto detailer and half the time i have to wait for the unit to start working while I’m on a détail.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor Quality hose and Wand
on April 8, 2020

Unit was used only 2 times for a total of 2 hours. Hose started leaking at wand joint when using the turbo nozzle. Gave a fair instead of poor rating because it was cleaning nicely before it starting leaking.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have had the opportunity to try a few different pressure washer at this price point, I am using it primarily to was my cars, This exceed my expectation and its really easy to roll out and setup and get the job done. I have only used it a few times, but it works flawlessly

Bought this unit 2 1/2 years ago. Worked great until this year. Had a leak from inside the housing. Contacted Karcher and supplied all the requested information and they sent a new one. No hassles. Very satisfied

Great Inexpensive Electric Pressure Washer
on February 2, 2020
Posted by: WOP_Drive
Gender:Male
I use mine to wash my car. It does the job well; however, if your water source sputters occasionally (like mine), the Karcher 1700 tends to "burn-up" for a few seconds emitting an electric odor before going back to normal. Of course, I cringe when this happens and wonder how long my Karcher will last under these conditions.

Almost had to return it
on August 20, 2019

Very easy to assemble, no tools required. Worked for about 10 minutes, then would not keep running. About ready to return to store when I tried cleaning the 15 deg nozzle. Had to clean it twice, then worked perfectly. Should be a warning in troubleshooting section. Unit easy to use and did a fine job on brick pavers.
I would recommend this to a friend!

YES!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was stoked to be receiving the K1700 Power Washer! Truth be told, I had always wanted one! As soon as I got it, my first task was to wash the side of the house that had a bunch of gunk all over it. It did amazingly well! With ease, it took all of it away. I also used it on my car and car mats, and it does small tasks perfectly as well. I am a fan of this product, and now find myself trying to look for things that might need washing just so I can use it! It is easy to use, fairly light weight, and wonderful!
I would recommend this to a friend!
