ᐅ Pressure washer—but which one?

Hello everyone,
The time is slowly coming when it’s possible to clean the driveway and the terrace.
I’m already thinking about a pressure washer, but which one would be suitable?
It’s clear that Kärcher is the market leader and very good quality.

What alternatives do you have and would recommend?

Kärcher: if you buy cheap once, you get cheap quality.

In the price range of 100-150€ (approximately $110-$165), I also ended up with Kärcher. However, these are quite plastic-heavy machines. I don’t think these devices are top-quality; it’s more of a German thing, the term “kärchern.” Mine also overheats sometimes, so you have to let it cool down for about half an hour before continuing. If you want to spend more, I would rather take a look at Nilfisk.

Check with the manufacturer of the paving stones and terrace slabs. Many advise against using a pressure washer.

Kränzle is also highly recommended. With Kärcher, you usually have to look at higher-end models to get a pressure washer with high-quality and durable components.
As @haydee already mentioned, using a pressure washer is not suitable for all types of patio slabs.

I agree with @rick2018. You can't go wrong with Kränzle. I recently got a Kränzle tst 1152. The quality is top-notch, and it is more than sufficient for typical household use.
