Ava Master P80 UK Review - Better Than My Karcher K7. Powerful, Well Designed, Great Results!

[@PadmaDorjee]

Brilliant review Russ. They are sold through another company here in Australia and although expensive, its value is ten times the other brands. Thanks for mentioning its a family business of 15 people because I love supporting family businesses so I will buy one today. Cheers Mate.

[@RussellPlatten]

It is a great pressure washer! :-)

[@daveb3363]

I think car care products now sell them

[@AdamAus85]

So 15 people in Norway, that means a factory in China to make them? I can't find the damn answer on this of course. At least Kranzle are upfront about where they are made.

[@meteora8888]

Dunno about the Masport branding in Oz and the pricing. Not readily available to buy so wonder what the support is like. If bunnings sold them, that would give them a chance against karcher in oz

[@sandybeach6743]

We’ve not long purchased one of those and yes it far exceeds Karcher in power and quality. One negative though there needs to be instructions on how to put it together, as there are none. If it hadn’t been for your videos we would have been at a loss of how to get it working. 👍👍👍

[@BobTaile]

Hi Russell we chatted some time ago (maybe another of your vdos) after my Karcher was stolen. I bought the V90 and waited while AVA fixed the fuse issue - which they have done. Thanks Russell, you are quite right this AVA out performs my Premium KARCHER and is way more user friendly and easier to use. I'm still waiting for Tone at AVA to let me know when the Patio Cleaner is back in stock - but they didn't take the Karcher version and this fits. Anyway, thanks a lot Russell. Much appreciated

[@RussellPlatten]

I am glad that you are happy with the washer. I used mine a lot in the spring and summer, without any issues. It is good that Ava customer service is friendly and supportive! :-)

[@kilbofragins2820]

Hi, did you ever manage to sort out the fuse issue. I was looking at the P80 but am put off by this electrical issue.

[@humansrants1694]

Is it worth adding the bottle and using Karcher stone cleaner spraying the cleaner all over the stone then pressure washing after that?

[@RussellPlatten]

I find that the water pressure alone is fine. I do not use detergents. :-)

[@peterhansen9781]

Hi Russle I see you've done review and test the Ava P80 and the Karcher k7. I currently have the P80, and I need a patio cleaner. Apparently the patio cleaner from Karcher fit the AVA P80. What is in your opinion the better patio cleaner head.? Should I buy Karcher T7 or the ava patio cleaner premium. Thanks for great reviews 👍

[@RussellPlatten]

I would go for the cheapest Peter. There is not a lot of difference. :-)

[@peterhansen9781]

Great, thank you 👍

[@PauloHeaven]

Thank you for your review, that looks like an excellent machine. I came accross a comparison between a lots of pressure cleaners, and it came out on top here too. The problem is, I can't find them anywhere in France, unfortunately. I'll have to go with a Karcher, it should still last a while.

Great review. Do you know if P80 would suck the water from butt tank or a bucket? If not would a gravity fed water from a butt tank suffice?

[@RussellPlatten]

I had a look on the Ava website and saw this: avastore.co.uk/product/ava-self-priming-hose-w-check-valve/ If you read the description, it states that all Ava pressure washers are self priming, so you would be fine. :-)

[@sebna]

@@RussellPlatten thank you very much for speedy reply and finding this accessory which after further investigation indeed confirms that AVA Evolution or Master series will suck a water from any source :) I cancelled my K7 order and ordered Evolution P80 :) - my preference would be P90 but they don't currently sell it on UK market due to fuse problems and it would be too much hassle to get it from continent (I am in IRL). Looking forward to giving it a spin. It has a quite a workload ahead of itself. Lets hope it will last. One more time many thanks for getting back to me. Top man. Subbing in appreciation :)

A brilliant piece of engineering. I had three failures of Karcher k4 machines (which I think are rubbish) I had very poor response from Karcher and all they offered me was a standard repair at £161. Ava seem brilliant and made to last. Can you confirm if the P80 will draw from a barrel. I believe they do..

[@RussellPlatten]

Yes, all Ava pressure washers are self priming. Here is a link to the self priming hose accessory and in the description it states that fact. avastore.co.uk/product/ava-self-priming-hose-w-check-valve/

[@jcc6664]

Thank you. One more thing, I have read about these models blowing main 13a fuses on a regular basis. Have Ava sorted this problem out. I also can’t see this P80 model on their website. Has it been discontinued?? Thanks again. John

[@RussellPlatten]

My P80 only blows fuses if it it connected to a socket on a spur or via an extension lead. If I connect it to a socket fed by the ringmain (two 2.5mm cables) it does not blow fuses. Since I figured this out, it has not blown a fuse and I have used the pressure washer a lot. I ended up buying the HP Hose Extension so that I did not need an electrical extension lead. The CEO of Ava told me that they had figured out the cause of the issue and hoped to have it rectified by the end of 2021. I have not heard from him since, so cannot say for certain that it has been addressed. As far as I am aware the P80 is still available here in the UK. :-)

[@jcc6664]

Hiya great review I’m looking at getting a karcher k7 compact and looking at the operating pressure the Ava is only 110 bar where the karcher is 145bar, if you’d rate them on cleaning ability alone which one is better? Thank you

[@RussellPlatten]

The K7 was quoted as 160 bar when I purchased it in early 2021, it is now listed as 180 bar on the same Amazon product page, very strange!. The Ava Master P80 is 160 bar. They both clean well, but the Ava is a better machine in my opinion. It is designed with a lot more convenience, has no fancy gadgets, the attachments are better and it has a way longer guarantee. The K7 compact is the best version of the K7 in my opinion as this has no fancy gadgets too, but I personally would pick the Ava. :-)

[@protester2474]

Thanks Russell, I already have a hose and stubby gun for the karcher that’s why I am leaving towards it as I’m not sure Ava will work with after market stuff just yet

[@VeterisVulpes]

All these manufacturers love to only mention the "max pressure", but the devices are never able to reach that pressure. They should be obligated to mention the "working pressure", but you can only find these in the small prints. The "working pressure" is the realistic pressure. For the Karcher K7: the working pressure is 160 bar (16 mpa) 180 bar (18 mpa) is pure marketing. For the Ava P80: the working pressure is 130 bar (13 mpa) 160 bar (16 mpa) is pure marketing.

[@Purewalite]

I'm constantly wrestling with the hose on my Karcher K7, it's a real pain on a machine at that price range. This looks like a good alternative.

My P70 has started making a loud noise after I let go of the trigger think it was after adding the extension hose but also notice water is leaking at the tap end.

Not sure what is happening there. Contact Ava of Norway customer support, they may be able to help you. [e-mail] :-)

[@micdev42]

Hi Russell. Another really helpful review, thanks. I do have a question about the K7 comparison though. The K7 is specified as 180 bar and 500 l/h. The AVA Master is 160 bar and 600 l/h. You reckon the AVA performance is superior. Is that because flow rate is more important than pressure? I'm looking for a good quality pressure washer mostly for DIY patio, path, paver, greenhouse, conservatory cleaning so this review - and your K7 review - are very timely. I also like the idea of the 20 year warranty and the fact that AVA classifies its spare parts as "non-profit" (or something similar).

[@RussellPlatten]

Yes, the flow rate is better for large areas and the pressure does not make a lot of difference at these higher pressures. :-)

[@anonymousbullet7407]

I deal with ultra high pressure washers for desilting. I can confirm the psi doesn’t make much of a difference, it’s the flow rate that matters. The better the flow rate, the better the outcome you’ll receive. Most companies advertise high psi to sell, stick with high flow rates and you’ll be fine 👍

[@RussellPlatten]

In my opinion, you cant go wrong with Ava washers. The Go P55 is a very portable washer with plenty of pressure and I use this for most jobs. The P80 is better for large areas and I use this every spring for all of my paving. The P55 is the most versatile and is very easy to use, just pick it up and go. For large areas the P80 is quicker. Both machines will get the job done! :-)

Hi Russ. Can you tell me if you can adjust the pressure on the gun/lance on the p80. Cheers.

[@RussellPlatten]

Ther turbo nozzle is high pressure and cannot be adjusted. You can use the nozzle from longer distances to reduce the pressure, but it is not designed for softer surfaces. The Vario nozzle has two pressure settings 20° and 60°, these two nozzles cover a wide range of applications such as wood, car washing and facias. You can also use both the nozzles simultaneously for a low pressure pressure spray. :-)

Russel I’ve just watch another KZbin channel which has done a review on the p80 they state that a 15amp slow blow fuse is needed! Any thoughts?

[@RussellPlatten]

There is no such thing as a slow blow 15A fuse for a 3 pin plug that complies with British Standards. They are not available. Ava told me that the problem with fuses blowing is pretty rare. I found that the fuse would blow if I used the power washer on a socket with only one 2.5mm cable supplying it. If I plug it into a socket on the ringmain with two cables, there is no issue. It also blows fuses if plugged into an extension lead. I just make sure it is plugged into the ringmain. Ava are supposed to be bringing a modified P80 out for the UK market pretty soon. :-)

Hi did you ever sort the problem with Fuses blowing? Mine is doing the exact same thing and AVA are blaming my power supply?

[@RussellPlatten]

I found that the fuses only blew if the socket the pressure washer was plugged in to was on a spur (only supplied by one 2.5mm electric cable). If I use a socket on the ringmain, (supplied by two 2.5mm cables) the fuse does not blow. It will also blow the fuse if used with an extension cable. I just run the pressure washer cable through a window and plug it into the ring main. :-)

I believe there is a little bit of false advertising when you put the K7 Compact to the test. When testing with a pressure gauge straight out of the output of the pump I got a Maximum of 2150PSI (148 bar) before it trips out the pressure switch. 8l/minute MAX (480l/hr). Don't get me wrong its still a very powerful unit for an electric single phase but I don't like the fact that all these electric units never really put real specs and get away with it

[@RussellPlatten]

I can only compare it to my Karcher K7 by actually using it and in my opinion it is a better machine. I do not have the equipment to check the discharge pressure of the pump and would not even consider stripping the unit down to fit a pressure gauge. :-)

[@SamFerlauto]

@@RussellPlatten no need to strip down . You just add a gauge with 3/8th quick connect inline. But yes your right its got very good washing power regardless of the psi and l/min. My beef id that the industry put out fake ratings to make it more marketable.

I decided to purchase a 15M ava high pressure extension hose to allow me to wash all the areas I needed to. The P80 never blew a fuse. If I plug it into a 30A ringmain circuit through a window, it is fine. It only blows fuses when it is plugged into a spur off the ringmain or an extension lead. To be safe, the P60 will be fine! :-)

Hi does this power washer have to change the 13amp fuse in the UK for a higher fuse thanks

[@RussellPlatten]

It is fitted with a UK 13 amp plug David. :-)

[@1oldson]

according to their site, if your home electric supply drops to 218v then fuse can blow. in this case they say swap fuse for 13amp "time delay" fuse. sometimes called "slow blow"

I have a Karcher K4 full control and it's pretty crap in all honesty. All plastic parts and the water outlet L bend broke on me less than 2 months from new. When it comes time to upgrade I'm not even going to look at Karcher ever again, but instead will be looking at AVA and Kranzle. Karcher used to be a reputable brand, now not so much.

[@RussellPlatten]

So far I am impressed with Ava. :-)

[@Dg-zj6jo]

you sold one cheers

[@RussellPlatten]

I am going to be using mine again today. It is that time of year! :-)

[@abebeshiferaw5345]

Are you using any chemical?

[@RussellPlatten]

No, just water. :-)

[@peterwood3108]

Better still, when cleaning patios, its far Better, spraying a patio cleaner, such as wet and forget, as you dont bugger up the pointing, or the surface of the flag. But water is free, chemicals arnt.

Sorry just bought one of these, what a pile of junk. They must be paying you well to praise this bucket. . Its cheap and nasty and customer support is crap. £540. Wasted due to you and others sponsored reviews..
