Nilfisk E 145.4 Bar Pressure Washer - High Performance Power Washer for Patios and Car Cleaner (2100W)

I have given this 5 stars because it is in my opinion a very good, well-built (mostly) machine. My local Nilfisk repair and sales company also think it is a good machine. I had my first Nilfisk (different model) in 2000 and it lasted without any faults until 2019 when I purchased this unit (from Amazon) as a replacement. There are a lot of one star reviews on here which mostly seem to be about a specific fault to do with the machine cutting out when being operated. I didn't see those comments when I ordered mine in July 2019. I have developed the same problem. I contacted Amazon last week and they pointed me to Nilfisk in Penrith. I phoned them and gave the details of the fault. They thought it might be the upper part of the handle, which they said contained a pressure valve, although I have now been told by my local dealer that the pressure valve is actually inside the machine body. The new handle they sent arrived yesterday and the machine still failed. I phoned Nilfisk back and they asked me to 'securely package' it and they would pick it up by courier for repair under warranty. The problem is I don't have the original packaging and Nilfisk were rather vague about the packaging requirements when I asked them. In the end I phoned my local Nilfisk dealer and he said as long as I had the invoice they could repair it and make a warranty claim on my behalf.I took it into my local Nilfisk dealer yesterday and they are repairing it free of charge, under warranty. If you have a similar (or any other) fault with this machine it might be easier to just do as I did, but I should stress that I checked first with Nilfisk before I took it to the local repair shop. I think the fault only affects a few machines, but that is based upon something that was told to me by Nilfisk.To recap, the machine itself is fine, and I have no doubts about Nilfisk general quality as my last one lasted 19 years. I looked at several other makes of pressure-washer here on Amazon and there seems to be problems of varying types with those too. I guess it's just the times we live in! Nilfisk are generally good.

This is an excellent pressure washer. I have used the yellow brand for many years and they have all failed or had problems at some point.This is simply the best one that I have ever used, including the ones in petrol stations. It is very sturdy and the accessories are the same. The output pressure is fantastic and it was "almost" a pleasure to clean the block paving :-)I use it mainly on my motorbike and car and it does a great job of both. It makes cleaning alloy wheels super-easy. My friend was here last time I was using it and he was so impressed he ordered exactly the same model.I really can't recommend it highly enough. I only wish I had bought one years ago.

The first one I got from Amazon died after 1 day of use. Thankfully Amazon replaced it quickly and the new one is going great. If it stay going for a year I will update my review to five star.Its a very powerful machine, and the way it manages the hose and power cord and accessories is very smart.

Our old 110Bar unit had packed in. It was 5 years old perhaps with plenty of use. However a lengthy patio cleaning day using my neighbours patio attachment killed it off with the pump sounding as if it’s mashing nuts and bolts!So, bought this 145Bar unit as an upgrade replacement and wow was it worth it. It comes ready assembled, it weighs almost twice the weight of the smaller unit and it packs a punch. !I attached it to a newly acquired Patio Cleaner attachment and I was happily cleaning away ingrained moss from the patio very easily and without getting soaked myself. The other amazing feature is how quiet it is for a powerful pressure washer. I was so eager to test I had it up and running in less than 15 minutes and quickly cleaned the patio, in the dark (not recommended) using my torch to guide me!! Madness, but such satisfaction looking at the patio the next morning :-).

I bought this preassure washer to replace an older one that was not ag good as it use to be. Its more or less put together in the box. I have used it to wash the cars and my patio and its a very powerful machine and more than capable of the jobs I use it for. The only bad thing I can say about the Nilfisk 145.4 is the hose is a cheap plastic one that will kink very easily. I already had a better replacement hose as I have come across this problem before on my last machine. I would recommend this preassure washer but just be aware the the hose may cause problems depending on how often you use it.

Appalling quality. The hose on the E145.4 is dreadful, it does not straighten and always wants to coil back making it impossible to work with. Nilfisk have provided me a new, softer hose, but this is impossible to fit correctly without water shooting out everywhere.. It can only be fitted one way!!?? Makes no sense. Now I have no PW. Loved the brand as previously owned the E145.3 for 7 years before age related failure. Not again. Will be writing to Amazon and Nilfisk demanding my money back, I have lost total faith in this product and the brand and will never buy Nilfisk again.

Nilfisk 128471186 Excellent Pressure Washer, 2100 W, 230 V, Blue.Read lots of reviews of pressure washers. There are always a few bad reviews for whatever you look at which makes it hard to choose. Chose the Nilfisk its superb. It is a quality product that I am sure will last for years. I have used it to jet wash all my paths and patio works like a dream and takes all the hard work out of it. Hose is plenty long enough to not have to keep moving the machine. Its on wheels so easy anyway. Also bought the adapter for car washing and the washer bottle which I filled with Autoglym PB002.5 Polar Blast, works a treat on the car. No hesitation in recommending.
