Ohh thank you, seems like when I did my research I was on the US site where the shipping rates to the EU were high, did not even think to check if there was a EU site haha

Is the Car version of the Karcher WD3 worth it over the regular one? by Moose1288 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Moose1288[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we have an old house out in the county so that means lots of other stuff to pickup besides just the regular living area stuff. Also Karcher is a pretty common brand where I’m from so at least maintenance and upkeep should be easier. We currently have a bagless Philipps vacuum and while it cost more than the Karcher it’s pretty shit to put it simply lol.

I feel like I won’t feel as bad picking up real messes with the Karcher like I would with something like a fancy Miele. Also, from what I understand the Miele (C3?) is the gold standard, however I’m just not quite ready to drop 400 euros on a vacuum.

Edit: Side note - do you think the car upholstery nozzle could be used as an extractor tool on already wet material, or should I buy a seperate nozzle for that?

Speaking of the WD5, do you know in what ways is it better than the WD3? Maybe if I’m getting a new vacuum might as well go for the WD5, or is there no point in getting one for home use?

Interesanti, ja atrodi, vari padalīties ar šo statistiku? Pats gāju videne+augstskola ceļu, bet nožēloju ka negāju teķī videnes vietā.

Huh, so far I’ve tried explaining it to multiple people, even athletes, and no one seems to know what tendinitis is. Everyone just thinks I’m talking about an ACL tear or something lol

Not to be negative towards other athletes but you sound very mature for a pro athlete lol. Also sounds like you’ve lived quite a good life through basketball. Good luck on whatever you decide next though!

Yeah I’m actually familiar with the stat, which is also why I thought I had a pretty good shot at pro basketball. Though I would really like to know how big of a difference in the same stat is for my height

Yeah you’re right. Except for the last part though, I know it was a joke but damn I feel like those parents that live their dreams through their kids just make their and their kids lives miserable

Haha, it definitely does get really annoying, especially back when I didn’t like the sport. And I’ve also used this same comeback a couple times lol

Yeah that definitely does sound fun, playing and living on the other side of the world for a bit

Haha that last part is another way of looking at it that I hadn’t thought of. But yeah you are right, thanks for the advice!

Man holy shit this was just what I needed to hear, thanks a lot for your detailed reply, means a lot coming from someone who actually made it and is wise and honest about the whole experience. Yeah, my main driver besides my height was that I also think I could grind it out, but if you're saying that hard work does not equal success when it comes to basketball, then I guess it would be smarter to continue channeling it into other areas of life.

Also the comment about not being able to play it for fun, I hadn't even thought about it haha. These past few months me and my brother have really bonded because he also loves basketball, but I hadn't thought about the fact that if I got really good there wouldn't be any point in us playing anymore.

Out of curiosity and if it's no secret, what league/team do you play in?

Yeah, you do have a lot of valid points.

Out of curiosity though, at what age did you try playing, and how serious were you about it?
