Any experience with the Karcher Foamer attachment?

It was only $14, so I figured I'll give it a try - any experiences out there? I know the container is small, my back-up is the foam cannon from AG.

I'd grab the foamer from home depot for about the same price, it works great if you are into lots of foam. I forget what its called now....
 
i think i saw that somewhere and passed on it because of the incompatible attachment - the Karcher is a bayonet style. it' can be a PITA to see what attaches to what
 
Got it free with my Karcher, its OK but I found that when foaming my RAM truck, I need to refill it twice. No adjustments on the thing, so you have to experiment with the mixture. Make sure to use it with a foaming shampoo, or otherwise you are just wasting product. I tried it with CG Citrus W&G, Megs NXT and Megs Gold Class, and it was mediocre at best, and that's when I filled the whole container with shampoo, no mixing. By the time I got myself a foaming shampoo, I already got a Karcher HD pro foam lance.
 
Honestly, if you already have an AG foam cannon I would stick to that, there is no comparison in the quality of thick clinging foam.



If you don’t have a HP Foam Cannon, then the Karcher attachment will work in a pinch.

i was going to order the AG foam cannon as my back-up, trying to understand why it cost $120 for the thing. anyways after the heads-up on the HD foamer I stopped by there and got it for $9.97 and a wand attachment for $15, can wait to give it a try!

Yea, I've heard that thing is legit for the money for sure. I've got a crappy little "foamer" that came with my AR Blue Clean 118, but its junk. It actually takes the place of the pressurizer wand thing, so there isn't real "pressure washer" pressure behind it to make the really cool clingy stuff, just sort of works like a Gilmour but not as well. I love the AR, but I really wish I bought a Karcher now. I really feel like for a cheap pressure washer the AR is built way better, but their bayonets are proprietary and you can't get anything to hook on to them unlike a karcher.
