I've had my eye on this little baby for a while now. Did a bit of research and decided that 1400W of pure, awesome cleaning power was EXACTLY what I needed. Long hose, long wand, enough attachments to keep the boredom of cleaning at bay and light enough to move around without the need to lift weights for five years beforehand. Gerni has a metal motor which means it can be repaired rather than scrapped and is a wholly owned Australian company to boot! Ticks ALL my repurposing/shopping local/sustainability loving boxes.
Last summer it rained. A lot. All the time. As a result the pavers which have the house surrounded are now mostly covered with a dark green coloured mildew/moss/mould/alien growth and are patiently waiting surrender by the inhabitants. (Some may say it's Army Green which would work in perfectly with my theory that the pavers are dressing in army camouflage in order to lay an ambush. This would also explain why the cat has taken to walking across the roof rather than the pavers.)
Now that the dog has moved on to greener pastures and summer is just around the corner I thought I'd spruce up the pavers/general outdoor area in preparation for the bbq/pool party season. So after a morning coffee with Bob & Cynthia I popped into the auto shop on the way home (who would have thought you could buy high pressured cleaning gear in a male dominated domain???) and picked one up. I got a bargain!! Not only was the price reduced to under $200, it came with a handy dandy attachment thingy with a spinning arm designed especially for cleaning pavers. Blow me down! Gerni must have women/men who realise that women use Gerni's/magic, mind-reading elves working in their design department!
So with a spring in my step and high hopes I set off to repel and conquer the invading army. OH MY LORDY!! With a simple wave of the wand the pavers emerged one by one shaking off the shackles of inhibiting mould and emerging fresh and rejuvenated. *Sigh* I love my Gerni.
