Karcher K5 Pressure Washer

[@tlrdavis2793]

I have watched so many of his videos. You can tell that he is genuinely excited about his new pressure washer because you can see the slight grin and higher energy level that he has on the entire time he is unboxing the pressure washer.

I was impressed with my purchase in April 2024 from Amazon uk of the Kärcher K 5 Classic Home Pressure Washer, Pressure: max. 145 bar, Flow Rate: 500 l/h, Area: 40 m²/h, Water Filter, Weight: 5.6 kg, high-Pressure Gun, Dirt Blaster, Spray Lance, Home Kit. Used it once to clean the front and back garden limestones and my Audi. It works well and the speed of cleaning was superb. Thanks for your sharing of your K5.

[@wouterkolkman]

Thanks for your video! I just received my K5 and found the instructions a bit lacking detail. It looks like a major step up from the K2 I used over the past couple of years:-)

Di water filter vessel between outside tap and pressure washer, allows you to safely wash your car under a hot sun, Without panicking about water Marks. Your car will look cleaner too, as all the mineral salts will be removed. If you live in a hard water area it will be especially noticeable. Nice motor!! The k5 is a great washer the motor is encased in aluminium, unlike cheaper versions that have plastic bodies,which are more prone to freezing and a very bad day.

Great advice, thanks very much.

[@Dave-wm2xg]

@@lords-electrical your very welcome. Your videos are excellent, with just the right amount of information given in layman's terms, So anybody can fully understand.👍

So I've only used this pressure washer one time. kzbin.infoUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP The one time I used it, it worked great. I recently had new siding installed but kept the old gutters and small areas surrounding my house that weren't replaced so they looked horrible and dirty because of the new siding. I needed to get it cleaned asap. When I used the pressure washer, man it just melted all the dirt and grime that was on those areas of my house. I used that krud kutter soap and it was over after that. Easy to assemble, feels durable, very simple to use. Also, I purchased a used one to save money and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. I want to get more use out of it so I think I'll be washing the cars and update this comment as time goes on.

Dang, a Civic Type R?! Nice nice jam jar!!

[@davidraynorsnow]

Had a k7 ten years great piece of kit

[@ludosys4903]

Please do a review on the Type-R 😄 We have 2 black and 1 “titanium” (very dark brown) colored cars, I feel your pain to keep them nice and shiny especially since I have to clean them 😂

[@lords-electrical]

That would take me ages to talk about the Type R. Not a bad idea though 😁

Why does no one mention the cheap and frustrating Karcher bayonet interlock system for swapping out attachments, just took off main lance yellow insert left on trigger. Removed with long nose pliers, fitted karcher foam gun leaks from interlock and yet another yellow nozzle left in the trigger wish Karcher would sort out bayonet fitting. Have loads of attachments but hate to change them as you don’t know if they are going to disconnect or connect correctly. Complained to Karcher’s who sent a pack of yellow inserts with a range of o-rings with unintelligible diagrammatic instructions.

I’ve got the K7, and I’m very satisfyed with it..

[@ashleyvinning6333]

I just bought one after my previous 5.7 lost pressure after 12 years. I am frustrated with it as the cable management is appalling there is no wheel to reel in the high pressure hose and you apparently have to just wrap it around the unit. Backward step unless i am missing something!

[@yesterdayschild1418]

Can you give me your thoughts on the hose and is it a real pain in the butt because of the kinking so many people complain about? Also, does the standard hose wrap up neatly and hang nicely on the back?

[@lords-electrical]

Must admit, the hose is not a great design, i have seen quite a few people that have purchased another hose to replace it. Also i find it doesn't wrap up nicely on the back, it just coils up and can be a little frustrating. I am still really impressed with it though as far as the performance goes.

[@peterwesterlund]

That amazon link took me to the Reolink camera

[@lords-electrical]

You are correct, i have sorted it now, Thanks so much for letting me know.

[@Nick-xu7wm]

I always enjoy your videos.

[@Steveuploads]

Can it suck from a bucket like the K4, does it come with a hard suction hose that clicks onto the washer and with check valve on’t other end.

[@Dolfandad79]

Nice video and that's a sweet car!!

[@suerushton3709]

Why is the solution not cleaning my slabs when using the solution to get rid of stubborn stains Anyony help and advise me please?

[@bscott77]

My heart sank when I thought you were going to use the ‘swirl master’ rotating brush on your black car. Really pleased to see you didn’t in the end. In terms of foam lances, the karcher ones are poor, if you are going to buy a new one anyway I’d look at a proper detailing one, it will be night and day compared with this one. The karcher shampoo is also not really a foam product itself so you can pick up lots better than that. My only other advice in on the surface cleaner head, brush away any small stones before you use it or they end up flicking around inside it and breaking off little bits of yellow plastic 👍🏻

[@davidraynorsnow]

Agreed paid 50 for one was great

[@lords-electrical]

Great advice thanks very much 😀

[@fanboy15able]

Love seeing this guy in sweatpants lol 😅

[@davidraynorsnow]

Bad quality. Mine stopped working after few years. With little use. I have cared for it all the right ways. Very expensive, happy in the beginning, angry and sad now.

[@oliverhawkins4099]

I do this for my bike every weekend and don’t get 2k views. Cheeky little joke

[@faisalmahmood1908]

Looks like utter crap from Karcher again, look at how that long 10m hose curls up as you use it. Poor quality, cheap plasticy parts. Most people don't know bad quality, until they see proper good quality, I would recommend looking at Ava pressure washers, they come with proper hoses and minimum 10 year warranty (or 20 years for top end models) and don't cost much more than the K5 / K7.

[@lords-electrical]

Must admit the hose is a nightmare at curling up and very annoying.

[@faisalmahmood1908]

@lords-electrical ye I honestly really want to buy a Karcher but they keep screwing up their products by cheaping out. At least they offer 5 year warranty now.

[@faisalmahmood1908]

@@lords-electrical well I just ended up buying this exact K5 lol. I tried my friends K2 and the hose isn't as bad as it seems, I've tried the Aldi / Lidl pressure washers and their hoses are on another level of crapness. I wanted to buy an Ava one but they are never in stock and still have new company teething issues. Given Karcher offer 6 year warranty now, I'm happy to finally give them a try.

[@Simon-fr4ts]

Cringe car.

[@lords-electrical]

It's not to everyone's taste

Thanks for another great upload.
