Hey guys, just picked up a brand new Karcher K7 for $200 off at a closing sale. I've been using a cheap electric one that barely cleans my driveway. Is this thing worth the upgrade? Seems like a beast but not sure if i need that much power.

Nice find Bob! The K7 is a solid prosumer unit. If you're doing driveways, siding, or even a car, it'll save you time. Plus it's got a longer hose. I use the K5 on jobs and it's great. $200 off is a steal—grab it!

Just make sure you don't go overboard with the pressure. I've seen people etch concrete with a nozzle too close. Read the manual and use a surface cleaner for large flat areas. But yeah, good deal.

Check the flow rate too. High pressure means nothing without enough GPM. The K7 does 600L/h I think? Should be fine for most home stuff. If you're meticulous, you'll appreciate the adjustable pressure.
