$413.20 up to $639.96
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.

"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.
