Winner: Comet Static 1700 Extra


The Noise

  • K1322TS: 68 dB
  • Comet: 80 dB

The Kranzle is nearly silent compared to the Comet. If noise matters, this is a no-brainer.

Winner: Kranzle K1322TS


Build Quality

Both machines use brass and durable internals, but Kranzle’s industrial-grade components and proven track record set it apart. The Comet is well built, but not quite at Kranzle’s level.

Winner: Kranzle K1322TS


Circuit Compatibility

  • K1322TS: 15A compatible (barely), recommended 20A for foam cannon
  • Comet: 15A compatible (barely), recommended 20A for foam cannon

Winner: Tie


Foam Cannon Use

The Comet has slightly less GPM but more pressure, which still results in solid foam output. That said, the K1322 edges it out due to higher flow when paired with a 1.25mm orifice.

Winner: Kranzle K1322TS


Price

  • K1322TS: ~$1122
  • Comet Static 1700 Extra: ~$749

The Comet offers serious value for the performance it brings. Great cleaning power for $350+ less.

Winner: Comet Static 1700 Extra


Final Verdict

  • The Kranzle K1322TS is quieter, more serviceable, and built like a tank.
  • The Comet Static 1700 Extra offers more pressure and better price-to-performance.

If you want long-term reliability and peace and quiet—go Kranzle. If you want punchy power at a better price—go Comet.

Overall Winner: Kranzle K1322TS
