Yeah thats all I do with mine, and occasionally clean off the driveway etc. Amazing how good a job it does and it uses bugger all water.
Mine only cost $65 and it has a 1yr warranty which i thought was ok. Not the greatest most advanced one out there, but its fine for what i need.

I have one called a "lightening" it works at 1800psi and 10 1/2 litres per minute.
Mine has a brass pump and auto cut of when you release the trigger. Some of the cheaper ones have plastic pumps and no auto cut off. Basically, you get what you pay for !

I got a karcher K.20 which was around $600. It does the job, ideal for paint removal.

Thanks guys I bought a GMC $97 one fron Bunnings today, It works well, I already cleaned my AU, the mini and my bike with it. It cleans the driveway pretty good as well.
I like having new toys!
