He ain't even mention the $100 foam Cannon

Upgrades are needed across the board no matter what. Either buy a $100 pressure washer or a $700 one. That’s the difference. Upgrades are need for both in most circumstances

My pressure washer was $650 and the stuff that’s included honestly shouldn’t even be included. The hoses are insanely stiff and the guns are super cheap. That being said the price I paid was extremely fair for just the pressure washer itself so I guess it’s a bonus.

Buy kränzle and then upgrade.

Over the life of a printer, you'll spend on average 10x more on ink than purchasing the machine.

Basically when your gma gets a boob job!

Yo for real

Yep exactly

I'd agree, except Karcher actually makes solid pressure washers. More like a Charger or Mustang with a maxed out engine but absolutely trash finishes. But I'd rather have a Charger engine/body and upgrade the finishes aftermarket if I want to, than have a Nissan Leaf or some shit with suede seats and premium sound. Sleepers are trash and everyone knows it, and I'm not putting a 4.0L V8 in a goddamn subcompact.

Boomer really said box Honda cards.

True, but surely people who detail for money would also invest in a pressure washer that costs more than $140. These expensive upgrades would go well with a higher end pressure washer for a professional detailer. Home use, maybe doesn't need a $140 hose.

@@tren133why do you need a expensive washer to wash a car ? I have an expensive one and is a waste to only do cars. You don’t want to take the paint off just the dirt

@@Nojail101 People pay big bucks for professional tools not necessarily because it performs that much better. Pro grade tools are above everything reliable and consistent. That's what you are after if the tool is your money maker. Saving $300, $500, even $1000 on the upfront cost versus this cheapo $140 consumer grade pressure washer literally means nothing to a professional detailer, since performance and convenience of use aside, that consumer grade crap washer is gonna crap out on you after a few months of constant daily use, and just one day of lost income due to the broken tool will have cost you more than the money saved on the tool itself. Home users, do whatever you want. Buy a cheapest possible washer with zero upgrades and it'll still sort of work. Buy a more expensive one and trick it out with these upgrades if you want, etc. But the pros will buy the more expensive tier tool, because their livelihood literally depends on it.

@@tren133 I agree with you ! I said for detailing cars you don’t need any thing crazy ! My machine cost 600$ it just came out. Runs off 2 20 volt batteries ! It’s perfect for detailing. I was saying why buy a 4000 Psi washer for just cars ? Mine was more then most pressure washers and it’s perfect for cars

Even as an enthusiast it makes your life easier especially a wall mount/reel. People who say shit like this is too expensive clearly dont have a passion for detailing or they are so used to buying the cheapest shit they can find regardless of what it is.

Actually just the hose cost 140 LOL, and the stupid nozzle guard is another 40 bucks! I thought I splurged by buying a 50 foot Flexilla/Uberflex hose for $65, but $140 is just ridiculous.

Kobrajet hose will last decades vs a flexzilla or uberflex will last a few years max..if you cant afford then it is what it is but it aint that much..$150 canadian for a 50 foot mtm kobrajet hose with quick connects. Not like its 500 dollars..yeah when you compare a 150 dollar hose to a fckn shit pressure washer that was the same price it seems off but still@@tren133

I know right.? Pretty sure I’m not going go hit my car with the nozzle tip wand. 🤣

They reduce pressure

@@sargonoshana2324 By how much? Is it enough to matter detailing cars?

No.@@annagraham6204

A better washer still would need the same upgrades…

I bought a 600$ craftsman 1500 psi 1.2 gpm runs off 2 20 volt batteries. lol. I still need to upgrade some of the stuff. Plus the batteries are 130$ each. I love it though

I don’t think you realize that Karcher makes top notch equipment, it’s only us as North Americans that refer to them like they’re Great Value.

I bought the new Active Premium swivel stubby gun for $80, and I've been really impressed with it. Look really nice too.

Yes. That ryobi is perfect for car detailing. Upgrades are great but for that entry level Karcher these suggestions are plain stupid. The gun and nozzle alone are over $200. MTM makes good stuff but the aqualine you’re mostly paying for the color. Dumb.

We bought a $600 pressure washer and still had to do the upgrades. It's like buying a better vehicle. You can still upgrade everything

Most pressure washers don’t come with this stuff anyway, I did all these mods aside from a nozzle guard for like 70 bucks

Never heard of a pressure washer that comes with a swivel gun, nozzle guards, or a true kink free hose.

do you know where I can get the adapters to convert them?

@@Reaper-gx8qd Not sure why responses keeps getting erased. lol. But check MTM Hydro Parts. They really really good 15mm fittings. Be mindful of you need a male for female fitting, depending on your hose to gun setup. The video even shows the MTM spray gun as well.

@@ONI1013. Thank you, I’ll be sure to check.

This not true of the K1700 model which uses standard 14mm quick disconnect fittings. Other Karcher models however, do use the oddball fittings you mention.

Orifice size. Smaller usually gives u more psi, but u need to ensure your pressure washer can handle it. I just use the 4.0 Nozzle guard varient.

lessgooo 🚀

No make no sense

We also have a $600 pressure washer and we made the same upgrades. It's like buying a 2023 Supra. You can still spend a ton of money to make it perform better

They all come with the same wand type gun,you still need to upgrade to a gun without the wand to make it more maneuverable and practical,the stock hoses are stiff,and slow down your work,it’s all about efficiency,you certainly don’t need it if you’re a DIY or do here and there side jobs.

True. This particular one I have and it’s not an issue but the suggested upgrades are ridiculous. MTM makes quality components but the acquline you’re paying for color. A color that’d look like trash with yellow.

Those are garbo. They have many issues still. I got one and it only lasted 8 washes before it started to surge. I got a refund and I'm just going to go for a AR630

the craftsman electric pressure washer is good too

@@jackhinson9284 once you try the active 2.0 and you see how much water is actually being pushed out compared to the Rio bees and Craftsman pressure washers you'll never want to go back

what lol

@@propercareusa every price you listed is double of what is available

U can buy another for 130 dollars after those 100 hours I’m sure u made ur money back

That is unfortunate. My K1700 is going strong after 2 years of weekly use (winters aside). the inlet fitting chronically leaks ever so slightly, can’t seem to keep the connection tight for long. otherwise it is great. I don’t have any of these upgrades yet, just making do for now. not sure if the shorter gun is better to get first or the more flexible hose. Not springing for everything at once.

Yep! I have plenty of other videos saying the same thing. These are just the specific upgrades we've made to our 3 pressure washers 🙌🏽

@@propercareusa I think another thing to look at is 97% of people who watch your videos are probably just casual enthusiast but if you are running a business then I can see those upgrades worth it

bro what

what did he saayyyyy

Dead 😂

Lol why pay more though. Always better to buy from the source. Even OG says something about better by going to the source.

You should definitely upgrade the hose but just get a $20 sooprise short gun instead of a $120 one

🤔if your friend doesn’t know and he lives in Africa how the hell would we know 😂unless he buys it in Europe and ships it to Tanzania would be less money in shipping.🤷🏻‍♂️

i measured 1.2 ish gpm with a 2.0 orifice. This output @ 1000 psi. I registered about 700-800 psi with a 3.0 nozzle and got closer to 1.5 gpm.

Those are garbo numbers.

Has more than enough to detail vehicles which I think most viewers are interesting in using it for

@@pullingthestrings5233what’s Garbo numbers?

you still wont get a short gun or a foam cannon included with your pressure washer.

@@ShrimpCracka but you can’t order any pressure washer with a short gun or a foam cannon anyway. So what’s ur point?

Seems like you're good at math.

lmao

We also have $600 AR pressure washer and did the same upgrades on it. Everything can be upgraded to something better. You can buy the Kranzle K1322TS pressure washer for $1000 and it doesn't come with the hose, wand, or nozzles 😅

even our $650 pressure washer we make these upgrades
