Karcher K1700 Electric Power Pressure Washer 1700 PSI TruPressure, 3-Year Warranty, Turbo Nozzle Included

The media could not be loaded. This product turned out to be a US only product (I’m in the UK and purchased it on the UK Amazon site). There was nothing within the advertisement that suggested that this was in fact a none UK/EU product.I became concerned when I realised it was going to take such a long time to arrive so I contacted the seller to check that it would be ok for the UK and on a UK plug. The seller said it wouldn’t be a problem and that it would work fine with a plug converter.When the pressure washer arrived I read the instruction manual and it was clear that it wouldn’t work and possibly either break the device or my electrics. After getting professional advice in this it was made clear that it would need a step down device powerful enough to bring the voltage down from what is used in the UK to what is commonly used in the US. This would be a large and expensive box which would be needed to achieve this.When I went back to the seller they said that they often get this problem and then suggested that they send out another Amazon product which was also a step down device but a gravely underpowered one for £10 which would not work and would most definitely break the pressure washer and possibly cause a fire. I informed them that it wouldn’t work and they asked what would as they didn’t know about these things. When I explained what was needed they offered to put a nominal amount towards the solution to which I accepted.I then purchased the needed product, paid an electrician to fit and after it still didn’t work. So £187 extra out of pocket to fix the issue I then proceeded to send the product back to the seller when I had no other option.The seller pulled all the stops on attempting not to refund me as requested by myself and Amazon representatives.They claimed I sent the product back to the wrong address.They claimed the have paid me my refund in full which they had not.This is still an ongoing issue to get my refund. Karcher EU have also stated that these are produced for the USA market only and shouldn’t be used outside of the US as it would be extremely dangerous to do so.FOR YOUR SAFTY AND SANITY DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS SELLER !!!!!
