It was listed for $269 but I got it for $249 and got them to throw in a suction hose to use with a bucket (if we ever get water restrictions again). They had cheaper models but I got this one cause it had a longer hose (7m instead of the normal 4m most of the cheaper ones had) and it came with a couple of attachments. I think the cheapest one was $89 but it had a short 3m hose and no attachments at all other than the trigger gun. The first 'proper' model was $132 (on special, normally $149).Can you use normal car detergent or do you have to use the fancy foam stuff in the lance? Edited 20/08/12 01:13 AM by PookeyMaster
