Review on Karcher 17663610 Twin Sweeper Yellow by Bill Howard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for what it is

I bought the Karcher because I have an uneven asphalt driveway that is constantly covered in tiny pine needles. And I mean all the time. I'll clean up the driveway and it'll be covered again in a few hours. I used to clean my driveway with a blower, but that caused more problems than it solved. So I decided to try this. First, it was very easy to set up and use. There's nothing particularly complicated about that. I will say that there is a small design flaw that may be unique to my situation: if larger debris gets stuck in the rear brushes, they will no longer pick up all the needles, leaving pinstripes instead. I have found that in this case you need to remove the container and clean the large debris from the brush. Then it will work fine. It doesn't work 100% for me. This takes a few passes and leaves a few pins, but I think I made a good purchase. I'm sure if you had flat concrete surfaces it would work much better and be a five star purchase.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Modern
