Karcher has a good reputation for creating easy-to-use products that make the dull old chore of cleaning easier and faster so you can spend more time enjoying your home than preening it. The SC 3 EasyFix is a compact steam cleaner that can be used for a whole host of tasks thanks to the wide range of included attachments.

The K7 Premium Full Control Plus Home is the most powerful pressure washer Kärcher have to offer, with a single multi jet lance that can be adjusted for all types of cleaning. Suitable for cars, pools, patios, walls, home facades, bikes, garden paths, gardening tools and fences just to name a few.

Let’s face it, cleaning sucks. It can hard, physical work that no else appreciates (they would certainly notice if it’s not done, however) and it seems to always need doing. The very least we can do to vanquish these tedious chores is to ensure we have the right tools for the job.

This time of year, we seem to have an endless stream of guests who want to come over, eat our food, and drink our booze. On top of the hassle of feeding and talking to them, we need to pretend we don’t live in absolute filth by cleaning the place. It’s not just the inside we have to worry about, with all the outdoor Christmas lights and plastic reindeers we like to make sure the whole place is spotless.
