The Karcher T350 Patio Cleaner, is it effective?

A comparison between using the Patio Cleaner and just the standard wand set to high. This is with the Katcher K5 and the cleaner that comes in the box if you buy the Premium Full Control Home Plus version.

This is with a very dirty section of paving slabs and using Karcher's Stone cleaner.

It looks lie the patio cleaner is quicker but doesn't quite clean as well. If you have a large area to clean with mild to moderate dirt it'll probably work well and it's less messy as it doesn't kick up the dirt.

For me, the biggest benefit of the patio washer which isn't mentioned in the video is that it is much 'much' cleaner than using the wand which sprays all of the muck and dirt it's cleaning up onto anything and everything within 3 metres, including you, doors, windows, patio doors et al! The patio cleaner attachment keeps all the dirt and grime underneath the round cover and just lets it dissipate in a controlled fashion. By the time you finish cleaning patio slabs or a deck with the wand, you need to use it on yourself to clean you! With the patio cleaner I use it in my flip flops and shorts and hardly any clean up required. For me, that's worth the price alone!

I think for block paved drives like mine the patio cleaner is best because not much sand gets removed from the joints.

I've had mine years and it's never let me down. Used once/twice a year for cleaning our patio and it does the job nicely. Wet the slabs and put some cheap bleach on it and spread the bleach. The next day use the T'Race and it does a cracking job.

The K4 with the T5 patio cleaner works great with or without the detergent, also a lot quicker than the lance only.

Good video my friend. Trim off the excess blank footage at end though. Saved me from buying the patio attachment. I'll just use the turbo lance.

The patio head cleans without damaging the stone, the standard head can split stones if not careful

I just replaced my very old Karcher (about 10 years old and still working ok), with a new K4 car and home model. It came with one of the round yellow swirling thingies, that attach to the Lance for cleaning patios etc… I specifically got this for doing my block paved driveway, which I constructed myself and finished 5 years ago… it has not been cleaned since then and looking a bit grubby… First I weed killed a week ago, the day before power cleaning, in got down on knees and scraped all the joints free of moss where it had grown in some areas, removed dead weeds, and swept it off… I then used the swirly device attached t8 the Lance on high power, and I must say, it did a pretty good job… I found the best method of use was to cover areas in straight lines back and forth fairly slowly several times working roughly a square metre at a time…. My driveway has a slight incline so this helped clear a lot of the dirty water into the driveway drainage… on completion in ‘water swept’ the driveway using the other Lance I got in the set, with an adjustable power setting, using the setting just slightly below full power, and this washed off the remaining dirty water and sand that come out of the joints of the block paving…I washed it all into the driveway drainage channel which I would clean the next day… after it started to dry out you could immediately see the difference, it looked almost like new… so the next day, as it had been warm and sunny, I re-sanded the drive by sweeping small amounts of sand over the block paving and into all the joints affected by the power wash, and lastly, cleaned out the driveway drainage channels and catch trough…it now looks like it did shortly after it was completed 5 years ago, so I’m very pleased with the Karcher ‘swirly thing’ and would recommend it for drives and patio cleaning…it’s helps get the job done without blasting dirt and grit everywhere…and does a good job of used at full power, and at a fairly even speed…👍🏻

Nice video! I find the patio cleaner is worse than the standard attachment too. Where I find it does work best is in on my concrete garage floor because the cleaner keeps the water spray to a minimum, which is great for not splashing the walls or my electrical sockets.

Great video, just saved me £60. Won't be bothering with the patio cleaner !! Why there are 26 dislikes on this video is beyond me

[woodyone]

Thank you got the post, just saved me £90, glad I watched how it worked now.

[vimtohasatoe]

Brilliant demo very professional and great TV voice lol

You're halving the pressure with the patio head since it has two spray tips, HOWEVER, if you don't let the patio get to black in the first place it's a great tool to keep things clean and it's very quick. Even works on outdoor furniture.

Thanks for the video. You've saved me time and money

[Helen-sound]

Thank you .
Erm, maybe check it all that black screen and washing fx at the end after the hideout finishes.

[davidbarlow]

Yes but you don’t get everything drenched if you use the patio cleaner

[Rain-Dirt]

Two questions:
- Was the patio cleaner also at full power?
- Have you tried changing the little spraynozzleparts inside with different ones?

[alastairjones]

That’s odd you found the patio cleaner head hard to move around.. I’ve just tried my new K5 with the same attachment head and it was super easy to move, it glided over the surface like a hovercraft and cleaned my patio as well as the lance.

I bought the k2 and the patio cleaner that came with it did wonders on the concrete back yard and cleaned thoroughly without using foam, considering this was published in 2020 and karcher model is different I can’t understand why the patio cleaner did worse that the wand

[sameerpattni]

Thanks. A very useful video. Decided to stick with the lance on its own after seeing this

[irishRocker]

Thanks for the short clear video. Wanted to know if it would be handier than the standard attachment so this will save me wasting like 90euro.
