Ok, have read loads of different articles on loads of different sites regarding these two portable pressure washer and just as i think i have made a decision up pops someone giving my choice a slating...

So it a last attempt to finally make a decision, which is REALLY the best?

I think your over thinking this one, buy whichever you can get cheapest as they are both decent enough. I own the Mobi 15ltr one and it helps wash my bike down after a muddy ride, a decent if over priced bit of kit that's definately not worthy of a debate!

Nomad are the same people that used to do the Dirtworker aren't they? If thats coreect and there's nothing else in it I'd go Nomad based on the excellent customer service I experience concerning my Dirtworker.

I've had a Mobi and a Dirtworker.
Both worked well, DW a little better but not a lot in it.
Mobi packed up after around 15 months, DW still going strong two years later. Would go for a DW.

Dirtworker (Nomad) here too, few years old now, admittedly it doesn't get abused much, but still working ..what 4years down the line.
That and DW will still supply spares, needede a new nozzle last year after I let the original freeze, great service.
M8 has a battery Mobi, and there nothing in it (water) power wise.

Had a little blast with the Nomad today and i have a question for owners of the 18V jobby...When using it the motor wasn't making a constant noise but more a pulsating one! Is this the norm?

Update - Went to use it for the second time today and guess what? The hozelock end is faulty. Rang the place where i got it and they were very appollogetic and have sent out a new hose straight away. Anyone else had a prob as the guy on the phone said he has never had a problem with this before.

More to follow......
