Decision time ref: washboy

I've had Raimondi skipper and didn't love it, the water sits to high in it as the grid is high.
Karl Dahm is the business, I have 2 of them and can't fault them.
I wash everything with the KD.

i cant understand why ye dont cut the grid if its too high.
i have a KD and love it but if i thought i could impove it i would ,without hesitation

Simple Alan, the Raimondi grid sits on the edges of the mould !
Its not like the great KD where the tray sits on base.

I never use the grid.. swish and rinse.

o i see. you could cut away some of the lip it sits on or some of the grid to let it drop down . then bolt 4 legs on to keep it up a bit.

I've got a Genesis washboy which I've had for several years I wouldnt finish a floor without it. I think they're on offer at my local CTD for about £20 plus vat.

Now that sounds a more realistic price for a bucket & sponge

Karl dahm wash boy for me had it 7 years now, another roller would be handy though!

 

[afright]

I think they could improve the KD by putting a lip either side of the rollers to stop water dripping on to the floor.

Hey all, Thought I would update you. Colin at Kwik Split has looked after me. After dithering for to long now purchased the Raimondi Pull rapid (has 3 rollers), which you guys have thought would be good on the Karl Dahm. Also Purchased the Floor levelling system so overall a couple of new bits of kit to report back on shortly.

Well done , look forward to your report on them .
