Default Pressure Washer info required

Has anyone had any dealings with, or know about Champion Pressure Washers?
They are petrol engined professional machines, Im considering one for a new venture, business wise, but cant find any reviews about them anywhere.

Thanks Rav, first link gave a few reviews, but need more than that before making any decisions, especially as those were U S reviewers, need to know if UK based owners have had any trouble and what they are like for getting spares.

Just been on the cleaning forum, and spoke to a pal who repairs these machines, both say Chinese trash , and not too bother with them.
No more reviews required, Rav, thanks for your input though mate.

Richard.
I did maintenance on all sorts of pressure washers and floor scrubbers for nearly 10 years. Watch out of Chinese copies of Honda engines and cheap pumps.
Go for a Cobra with Honda engine or something with a Speck, CAT or Interpump... pump and nothing else. Even Karcher use rubbish pumps now.

You have no idea of the rubbish out there. Forget reviews, staff often do them for a bung. Listen to those that service them.
Chinese Honda copies last 6 months if you are lucky, the same goes for the pumps. U.S. and Italian pumps are the best.

I'll give you a ring sometime this morning Trev, but it might be from a different number, as where Im working today is terrible for mobile coverage. It ends in 393
