Karcher K 7 (1.168-502.0)
 | Expecting restock A professional tool in the recognizable corporate style of the German brand Karcher for both active home use and commercial use. The pace of operation of the aluminium high-pressure pump is set by a 3-kilowatt water-cooled asynchronous motor. At maximum speed, the Karcher K 7 produces a water jet under pressure of up to 160 bar, providing “pumping” of about 600 liters of water in 1 hour. There are practically no tasks of an overwhelming format for a washing unit with such data. Out of the box, the model is equipped with a Vario-Power nozzle with a wide spray pattern and a mud cutter that produces a narrow jet under high pressure. The device also uses proprietary Plug'n'Clean systems (replacing detergent in one hand movement) and Quick Connect (quick connection of a high-pressure hose to a...mini-wash). To prevent the power cord from getting tangled underfoot, the unit has a hook for hanging its excess. The model turned out to be large (97x40x46 cm) and heavy (19.2 kg), but a 10-meter long hose comes to the rescue of the user. |

I initially took the cheapest budget car carrier. It turned out to be really pop. I already spent money on the second device and took a charged one. There is even nothing to compare them. The first one didn’t draw water from the vessel, the nozzles were crap, and it was weak. The power is simply immeasurable. 160 bar really makes itself felt. It's scalding that the bad one is at its maximum. You don’t have to worry about it at all, it washes everything as it should without any strain. Still belongs to the category of professional car washes. Well, it doesn’t take that long. Still, eating three kilowatts is not my first baby, who has consumed absolutely nothing. But there are still a lot of advantages, although they are quite expensive. The attachments are good, everything you need. I wouldn't buy anything else in particular. The hose is long. There is no discomfort due to its lack. Around the car he is enough for me. It takes water from the container well, let alone the water supply, from which the cheap ones take the norm. What else, it’s assembled perfectly, the material is good, the design is awesome. Works great. Everything is on well-thought-out latches and there are regulators for the same pressure and jet. Such. In general, there is nothing much to discuss here. Karcher is also not budget. 5 in one word. Weight, price. |
I have a fairly large house with a swimming pool and a three car garage. Therefore, when I needed to buy a high-pressure washer, I immediately remembered Karcher's equipment. This company is the market leader, and their products are a model for comparison. Picked up one of their high end household models. The power of the jet is just fantastic. Not for nothing in the manual and on the stickers on the case more than once they warn that the high-pressure jet should not be directed at people and animals. I don't know what a person can feel, but I managed to damage a tyre on a car. Live the century - the RTFM century (read the user manual). It was just written there that the distance to the tyre should be at least 30 centimeters. The standard outlet pressure is 150 atm, so be careful and even better reduce the pressure with the Vario Power nozzle. But if you use this power wisely, then it washes any dirt and not only from the car. Concrete, asphalt, brick, tile, durable plastics - it can wash absolutely everything. The only thing that turned out to be too tough for her was a plaque of hardness salts on the walls of the pool. Another advantage I would like to include is a long ten-meter high-pressure hose that is durable, a brass pump protected by filters, and a water-cooled electric motor that allows you to work as long as you need. For some reason, in the descriptions of online stores, the equipment of this expensive sink is called rich. But, in my opinion, for such money, there should be something more interesting in the package than two standard nozzles and a liter of detergent. They put at least a jet tube with a swivel nozzle, or something. But no, we will sell it separately, for $32. Goons, damn it. |
Purchased for a private home, the first task the washer had to tackle was cleaning 6 pallets of natural stone before laying. Test passed with flying colors! When cleaning concrete, it removes overgrown grass right from the root. The weight of the washer is pleasing, stands in place like it's rooted. The general opinion is this - the heavier, the more reliable :) Immediately bought a coarse water filter and a foam generator. The original filter is unjustifiably expensive, 2 pieces of plastic + a mesh - 400 UAH. Ordered a foam generator on AliExpress for about $23. It's indispensable for washing cars without it. Of course, you can use chemicals from the original container, but this way it practically doesn't foam and slides right to the ground. Power, high-quality materials, high-quality performance (as with any Karcher device) The price for a device that seems to be needed, but it seems possible without it - is expensive! A flimsy connector for connecting a hose, the absence of a coarse water filter in the kit. The hose reel comes only in a more expensive configuration :( What kind of nonsense? This is a piece of plastic that is simply necessary for the careful operation of the hose  Yuriy Gryshchenko: use Karcher K 7 few months |
"Charged" version of the household "Karcher"
The high pressure washer Karcher K 7 can be classified as an advanced and well thought out model. It has excellent technical characteristics. For example, its 3000 W motor is water-cooled, which guarantees protection against overheating if the water inlet does not exceed 60°C. Moreover, the pump is made of aluminium and provides high performance (600 l / h), which allows you to clean up to 60 sq.m. surface per hour, according to the manufacturer.
Adjusting the jet to your taste
The Karcher K 7 minisink has a water pressure of up to 160 bar, which makes it easy to cope with dirt on concrete and stone with the included rotary nozzle. However, the high pressure of the jet can damage some surfaces, such as the car body, so the set also includes a Vario Power jet nozzle that allows you to adjust the width of the "fan" and the water flow in a wide range (from 20 bar to maximum). The swivel head also has a MIX position for spraying detergent. Chemistry supply can be regulated by means of the handle on the case.
Underwater rocks
It is worth mentioning separately the detergent supply system. The Karcher company takes care of its customers and tries to convince them of the quality of its auto chemicals, which, by the way, is really of a decent level. For this, a system based on Plug 'n' Clean cans was developed, designed to supply washing liquid. They have a unique triangular shape and special caps that prevent other cans from being used in the Plug 'n' Clean slot. So that you can immediately try Karcher chemistry, a liter can of universal detergent is supplied with the minisink.
Another unpleasant moment associated with the use of the Karcher K 7 minisink is the high pressure hose. Although it is quite long (10 meters), it can sometimes cause inconvenience. This is due to the fact that the hose braid is made of hard plastic, and it constantly tries to twist into a spiral. Unfortunately, there is no special drum for convenient winding of the hose. You may eventually want to purchase the more flexible rubber braided hose found in the Karcher accessories catalog. There you can also find full-fledged foam nozzles for mini-washes of this brand, which allow you to use not only car shampoo, but also active foam for washing cars.
