    Nilfisk's "Centennial" power washer is at a fairly good price of €125. Not much stock around - check argos here

    It has the usual "xtra" accessories

    Extension lance.
    Dirtblaster lance
    Pressure adjustable lance
    Wash brush
    Patio cleaner
    Detergent bottle

    But what struck me was the improvements over the c120 6-6 extra

    520 litres/hr vs 440
    8m hose vs 6m
    Built in hose reel vs none

    It does not have a drain cleaner

    Might be useful if someone looking for a pressure washer at the moment

    Anything major in the difference between the one above and this one. I can't see there being much in the difference with only €15 in the difference.

    I've been waiting 2 weeks for that one to come into stock in my local hardware shop. If that one is much better then I might snap up the last one in Argos in Castlebar tomorrow :cool:

    The model in Argos has a more powerful pump, longer hose (an extra 3 meters), a hose reel, the patio cleaner is handy keeps the mess under control if you are cleaning drives, patios decks etc.

    The extra power and longer hose would be worth the investment and a definite upgrade to the c110.

    It also comes with a wash brush that I would not use on my car, and certainly would not admit using it a detailing forum... :)

    Bought one of these in Homebase for €110 last year on one of their 15% off everything weekends. Very good power washer and nice accessories.

    Reserved it anyway, probably will go back tomorrow and get it. As long as it doesn't turn out to be a dud like the lidl one, it should be all right!

    I have the same one (different name but same spec) and I've had the lidl one too. The quality difference is night and day. You won't regret buying it.

    The big advantage of the patio cleaner is that it keeps the nozzles at a constant height which gives you a consistent finish compared to using a lance.

    The fact that the spray nozzle rotates means its a very even finish too.
