Argos has reduced the Kärcher K 2 Classic Pressure Washer from £90 to £75, according to multiple reports. The compact model features a Quick Connect trigger gun, 3m high-pressure hose, single spray lance, dirt blaster, and water filter. Shoppers can get a 2-year guarantee with an option to extend to 5 years by registering within 28 days. According to the Daily Mirror, one Argos shopper described it as an excellent pressure washer that was more powerful than their older, larger model, making patio stones sparkly in under an hour. Another customer noted it was their second Karcher K2, with the first lasting 10 years, proving solid and dependable. However, some users mentioned minor drawbacks, such as no storage for the cord or lance when not in use.
Aldi is offering the FERREX Small Pressure Washer for £34.99, undercutting a comparable model at Argos, the McGregor Pressure Washer, by £45. The Ferrex model has a 1400W motor, weighs 5kg, and includes a 3m high-pressure hose, two rotating high-pressure nozzles, a 200ml detergent tank, and splash protection. The McGregor Pressure Washer at Argos retails at £80, has a 1400W motor, wheels and handle, and various nozzles, and holds a 4.5-star rating on Argos.
In addition to pressure washers, both retailers offer cordless lawn mowers. The Ferrex Cordless Lawn Mower, designed for lawns up to 200 m², has a cutting height adjustment of 25-75mm, cutting diameter of 330mm, a 35-litre grass collector, and a 20V battery. The Einhell 33cm Cordless Rotary Lawnmower at Argos is £160, £80 more than the Ferrex model, and has an 18V battery and a 30L grass collector capacity. It remains unclear how long the Argos 'Top 100 Deals' promotion will last or whether the Aldi pressure washer and lawn mower are still in stock at most stores.
