Looking for a small pressure washer and saw this on Amazon as a special deal. Excellent bit of kit with all the extras and a very good price. I would highly recommend.
Very impressed of how powerful it is. Cleaned patio very quickly and easy. Was shocked. Expected that it will take much longer to clean all. Haven’t tried brush attachment for windows. Planning to wash car with it as well.
I decided to use a pressure washing to clean some bits around the garden, windows and cars. I used today for my patio and wow, the slabs they look brand new. Very pleased so far!
Great little pressure washer that cleaned up years of dirt and made the garden look like new!
Everything fitted and clicked into place where it should. It is however, a bit loud and the rotating attachment caused the machine to be louder so I just stuck with the standard one.
There are black spots under the bushes that couldn’t be removed and will need a patio cleaning solution.
Overall, extremely happy with this product!
I use this for cleaning my patio and paths and it does a great job. It’s not one on wheels, but it’s pretty lightweight and easy to move around with. Would recommend.
Can’t tell you how impressed I am with this little machine. Packs a punch and far better than my previous home pressure washer the K2.
Don’t let its size put you off. My flags have come up a treat toady.
I had always said I wouldn’t waste water by using a pressure washer. What changed my mind was the fact this washer self primes so can draws direct from water butt. I have 4 water butt’s, perfect. I did have to shorten the hose pipe as the pressure washer could not draw a Hoselock 25 metre reel but OK with 10 metres. It easy to set up and use but wish Bosch included the patio cleaner as part of the kit. It’s lightweight and compact. I do recommend. Photo is patio stones not cleaned for 20 years. I have lived in my home 10 years and until today had never known my patio has red bricks! I watched 2 utube videos comparing this Bosch with another well known ‘yellow’ make, this Bosch came out top on everything tested and I concur.
I bought this to replace a Karcher that let me down after 2 seasons. It’s better than the Karcher in almost every respect. It’s small, sturdy, doesn’t fall over and provides plenty of power.
All attachments are secure without being a pain to get on and off. Nozzles are very easy to adjust. Simple operation and no leaks.
Has blasted 5 years worth of dirt off the patio in no time at all. The foamer attachment does it’s job where others haven’t in the past. I also bought the 6m extension hose to go with this. Which is needed to get all the way around the car without having to pick the unit up and move it. Well worth it though and works a treat.
After weeks of looking into this and a karcher K2 I chose the bosch. I am soo impressed by the ease to put together and the power of the machine. Super easy to use with great results. I’ve used the karcher K2 a few times but this Bosch 120 model is far better! Better results and better value for money! It’s compact and tidy, not at all heavy and great to carry around if needed.
I purchased it product as I needed a lightweight power washer I was not disappointed. I’m able to use it on my own and it’s easy to move around. I’ve had no issues with it and low power. I’m able to keep everything neat and tidy. Would recommend this product if you’re looking for something good value for money well made easy to use with clear instructions and very lightweight for its size. It’s actually quite powerful. Very pleased that I purchased this produc
I love how compact it is to pack away and move around. But did find the soap bottle to be way too small and the patio cleaning attachment was not massively effective. But the washer in general is very good otherwise and cleans patios and cars with ease using the lance and brush.
My husband got this, and I use it often to wash the car , I haven’t even used it to clean the patio. It’s very high performance and I love the way it packed away, compac
Easy to assemble and parts fit on to the jet washer neatly for compact storage. Powerful jet, have used it so far to clean my bins and drain pipes. Foamer works nicely to wash the cars. Be aware of too close to your car it could damage the car.
Cons- it is pretty loud
This is a very good power washer for the home and garden. It packs away neatly, has good power for its size and is very easy to set up. The hose is a good length and it manages all of the common jobs very well
Packs a punch.Easy to put together. Compact and easy to use.Not too noisy.
Cleaned my patio slabs in double quick time.Did not need detergent.
And a fraction of the price of Kercher.
It looked like my patio had not been cleaned for 16 years! I tried the patio attachment but ended up using the fixed nozzle. This did the job when held 4-6 inches from the patio slabs. This is my first pressure washer and I would appreciate better instructions for assembly and especially the identification and use of the attachments. As I understand it the fixed nozzle is for heavy duty jobs like slab cleaning and the variable nozzle is for less demanding tasks such as cleaning the car. I will update this review when I try the patio attachment again and use the foam nozzle. As far as I can tell Bosch does not recommend or supply car washing solutions. However, once assembled I found the washer easy to use and no problem to move about. So I am happy to recommend it.
Well what can I say so light easy to use no lugging around a heavy limpnof plastic you can use this lance in one hand and the unit in the other just one small niggle you only get the soft nozzle if you want a bit of power you have to get a different one
I clean my house down once a year plus’s the pathway and this seems to do the job, powerful enough but not to powerful light and easy to move. Extended the length of the hose to the lance, I like the easyer movability.
Excellent Product. Excellent Service. I got the Bosch 120, it’s compact but very powerful, my Son used it on my back garden concrete path, that had a few stubborn stains, were plant pots had been standing for a long time, it zipped through them in no time, I am so pleased with the results. Easy instructions to follow, and it has a place for everything, to roll and clip in for storage. Well worth the money. Thank You.
Had two Karchers, neither of which lasted as long as anticipated, and according to their reviews, the quality of Karcher washers isn’t what it used to be. I have many Bosche tools so thought I’d give this a try. It came with a handy set of attachments, including a patio cleaner. So far so good. It’s done a great job of the patio, car, motorhome, and facia boards. The pressure is great, clearly, I’ve not had it long enough to comment on its longevity.
I bought the entry level model and this little pressure washer is absolutely perfect for what I bought it for, which is washing the car.
It’s small and easy to move around but don’t be fooled, it packs one hell of a punch!
It comes with the lance and 2 spray attachments, I found one of the attachments gave absolutely perfect pressure for washing the car, not to gentle, not too hard (afterall we don’t want to be blasting the paint off the car now do we!) The other attachment is very high pressure however and perfect for blasting the wheels.
Whilst I initially bought this for washing the car I couldn’t resist having a go at the paving flags with the high pressure attachment and I found it great for that as well!
In fact I ended up doing the wife’s head in as I then turned my attention to the bins and basically anything plastic like storage tubs etc which are now all spotlessley clean.
I actually Prefer this to the old karcher I used to have which was twice the price – nice one Bosch!
I wanted something reasonably prices for car washing to replace my knackered karcher.
This looked like it would fit the bill and although I have only managed to use it once (due to british weather) so far I am impressed. I have only used it with one nozzle (the one that gives a wide spray jet) and it did a great job. It handy to be able to store all the tools on the washer. I still have the old karcher lance and jets so I may purchase the adapter. Nice.
I will start by saying that I hadn’t used a pressure washer before, I would advise making sure you know what you’re doing before getting “stuck in” as I did. A few problems encountered (due to my own negligence) that were actually answered in the manual you get with it. Would maybe advise watching a quick video of someone setting it up, too.
With that being said, once I got going, it was Bosch as usual. I’ve bought a few of their products recently; the electric drill + accessories, their stud finder for wires and metal behind walls, just to name a couple. Consistently I am pleased with the sheer thought that goes into their products.
There is a place for almost every accessory you get with this compact machine, to be stored on the machine, which is the first thing I was very happy about as I live in a smaller property and space is at a premium, I won’t have to worry as much. I do wish there was some way to reliably store the 5m long high-pressure hose that comes with it, but in the end I resorted for a reusable silicone cable tie, and to hang it on the coat hooks I have.
The machine itself is very sturdy, well designed, and compact. I did think it was a bit loud when I turned it on, but after I did my due diligence in learning how the thing actually works, I learned that it’s the noise it makes as it is “priming” and afterwards it only makes the noise as you have the trigger depressed and are actively washing with the machine.
The pressure is good and made my paths, bins and just about anything else I could find (it was fun), much cleaner and brighter (see photo). Feels like I’m in total control of the machine when in use and I don’t have to worry about it being flimsy or not being able to take a few knocks. And there’s also the handy lock on the trigger (underneath) so that you don’t accidentally receive a high-pressure hit to the eye whilst changing the nozzle, I would suggest using it, I can’t imagine that would be fantastic to experience.
All in all, I’m genuinely looking forward to the weekend, I have been asked to lend it to someone, but plan to offer to just clean what they want cleaning, for more practice with the machine and of course more fun. So satisfying to watch the dirt melt away, and even more so to then be able to admire how clean your paths are for days and weeks afterwards.
Wonder what my next Bosch purchase will be… (All my own opinion and in no way sponsored, that’s how you know it’s good!)
I will add a tiny little caveat, in case you didn’t glean it from my opening; I haven’t ever used another pressure washer so I will point out that it’s pressure vs. other machines, I couldn’t comment on. The reason I am so amazed could be that at best all I have to compare it too is my cold tap on full.
Thanks for reading!
As a homeowner who takes pride in maintaining a clean and tidy outdoor space, I recently acquired the Bosch High Pressure Washer EasyAquatak 120, and I must say it has proven to be a reliable and efficient cleaning tool for various tasks around my home.
First and foremost, the EasyAquatak 120 lives up to its name by offering straightforward setup and operation. The assembly process was quick and hassle-free, and the clear instructions provided in the manual made it easy for me to get started in no time. I appreciate that Bosch has designed this pressure washer with user-friendliness in mind, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced users.
One standout feature of the EasyAquatak 120 is its compact and lightweight design. Moving it around my property is a breeze, and I can easily store it in my garage without taking up much space. Despite its size, this pressure washer packs a punch when it comes to cleaning power. With a maximum pressure of 120 bar, it effortlessly blasts away dirt, grime, and debris from various surfaces, including driveways, patios, cars, and garden furniture.
The adjustable nozzle is a useful addition, allowing me to switch between fan and rotary jet settings to cater to different cleaning tasks. From gentle rinsing to tackling stubborn stains, the EasyAquatak 120 offers versatility that is highly appreciated during my cleaning endeavors.
I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet this pressure washer is during operation. As someone who values a peaceful environment, the minimal noise produced by the EasyAquatak 120 is a definite plus. I can now complete my cleaning tasks without disturbing my neighbors or causing unnecessary disruptions.
Another commendable aspect is the build quality. Bosch has clearly prioritized durability, as evidenced by the sturdy construction of the EasyAquatak 120. It feels robust and well-made, giving me confidence that it will withstand regular use and serve me for years to come.
While the overall performance of the EasyAquatak 120 is impressive, I noticed that the hose length could be slightly longer. Although it’s adequate for most tasks, having a bit more reach would be beneficial for reaching distant areas without constantly moving the unit around.
In conclusion, the Bosch High Pressure Washer EasyAquatak 120 is a reliable and efficient cleaning companion that delivers on its promises. Its compact design, ease of use, and powerful performance make it a valuable addition to any household. Whether you need to clean your outdoor spaces, vehicles, or garden equipment, this pressure washer gets the job done effectively. Despite the minor quibble with the hose length, I highly recommend the EasyAquatak 120 to anyone seeking a high-quality and user-friendly pressure washer.
Does a good job of cleaning our patio / slabs of stone. I prefer using the jet spray than the attachment designed to clean the patio though, as it seems more powerful and I can direct the dirty water in the direction I wants whereas the patio attachment leaves dirty water around it. Only negative point is I bought it on offer during the Prime days and now realize the original price displayed was inflated :-s
Even though I’m a visual learner, I’m not a fan of Manuals which are solely diagrams especially when some of the components (nozzles) look very similar. Also, according to the manual, this pressure washer is not suitable for using on vehicles on some nozzle settings. So make sure you’ve got the correct nozzle and setting.
The washer is powerful enough for me to clean ‘the green’ off my Indian Stone patios and paths and does a good job of removing bird droppings from those and metal garden tables and chairs.
The washer is super portable (though the power lead could be longer) and stores easily with built-in holders for the gun, nozzles and hose. You’ll have to find a separate home for the wash brush and patio attachment.
Good alternative to some of the more expensive brands. Easy to use and move around.
Only problem with this is the hose lead far to short can’t even do the full length of your ca
Powerful lightweight tidy little unit. Easy to clean and store.
The jet washer is powerful enough for doing the,patio and top floor house windows.
Amazing, very powerful for a little machine, happy days, brought my patio and driveway up like brand new
This is a lightweight little machine that cleaned my patio perfectly
Highly recommend. Easy to set up and use. Compact. All attachments have a place to clip into when you put it away.
Does exactly what it says, easy to assemble and move. Pretty powerful for a little thing.
For 60 i was not expecting much but it works like a dream. I can’t imagine a better one for sub 100/120.
I used it to clean the greenhouse, garden furniture, paving and childrens plastic toys in the garden. Easy to assemble and so easy to work with.
I purchased this in preference to a cordless pressure washer, due to the monumental difference in power – 20 bar v 120 bar. It is to complement my “yellow” power washer, which is a bit cumbersome to get out every week, just to clean the car. I am sure, this pressure washer will get more use and is a very handy compact size, for its power. Bosch is a brand you can trust and I have been very pleased will all my Bosch products – well made, durable and good value.
This little machine packs a punch and did a great job of bringing my patio back to life. Lightweight to move around. Can’t fault it.
Replaced my old faulty karcher and every bit as good.Only problem my patio brush (karcher) needs a adapter to fit the Bosch still cheaper than buying a new Bosch one.Overall 5 star.
I got this Bosch pressure washer for my sons birthday, he tells me it works very well with excellent high pressure and the quality build you’d expect from Bosch.
Bought it for my car as the hosepipe wasn’t blasting muck off. Convenient to store, use and enough power getting dirt off the car.
Thanks
A bit tricky to set up but brilliant once you get it going. Nice long lead and hose and works very quickly on paving. Not at all heavy to move around.Not tried other things yet.
My pressure washer off over 30 years gave up, so I borrowed my grandsons karcher after 10 minutes I stopped and took it back to him, rubbish. Read the reviews on a bosch the machine is magic I’m well pleased
Wasn’t too difficult to put together once i got the hang of it.. super easy to use one handed and im disabled! not too noisy and cleaned the nasty moss from my back yard.. nice machine for the money
This is an absolute beast of a tiny machine. Easy to assemble and works a treat. It is really lightweight but packs a punch (learnt the hard way accidentally putting my finger in its way). couldn’t recommend it more highly
This thing is about the size of a decent sized briefcase, weighs under 5kg, yet is still pretty powerful. I wanted something for cleaning my paths, exterior walls, windows, etc., and washing the car. Haven’t found a use for the detergent nozzle yet, as it’s no good for applying car shampoo because it discharges too quickly, but the other two are very effective. It’s surprisingly powerful, especially given the size, and it packs away into a very compact unit for storage. I bought the hose extension for cleaning the car, which was inexpensive, but honestly this thing is so light it wouldn’t be too much of a hassle to move the unit instead, if you’re on a budget. It’s easy to assemble, everything clicks together simply and perfectly for use. Comes apart just as easily too. The unit seems well constructed,
as you’d expect from a Bosch product. Hose and power cable are pretty standard (if a little generous, if you get it on offer like i did) at this price point, though I use a weatherproof extension cable and the hose extension pretty much all the time. No regrets buying this, pretty much spot on for domestic use. Thoroughly recommended.
pleased with this , was doubtful at first if it would be better than my Karcher washer and was pleasantly suprised when I used it, a lot cheaper than some brands so let’s see how long it will last . Very happy with it so far.
Found assembly tricky as instructions aren’t the best. Didn’t help that one of the nozzles was harder to attach than the other. Once assembled though it’s straight forward and easy to use and does a good job of cleaning bricks and clearing weeds (and grass with some insistence). Has a decent reach on the hose and easy to move around with too handle. All in all happy and would recommend.
When the package arrived I did not expect a full kit soap bottle patio hover craft car brush and two lance nozzles. These things were not itemized in the listing and, considering the 70 price to good to be true. I did not have great expectations of the performance for such a small lightweight tool. I assembled it in a few minutes and connected it up to the mains. When I pulled the trigger I expected disappointment My my paths patio and block paving drive have not been cleaned for about four years. I am delighted to say I was very wrong. Being so light it is almost effortless and quick to blast away all the crud leaving the slabs and joints really clean and bright. Patio cleaning has never been a favorite job whatever you use it is wet messy and the clean up after groan. In all I rate this dinky but powerful washer better than my previous well known and three times the price machine that was condemned after only three years. If this this lasts as long at the price I will be happy
Got this to clean my patio, decking and paving. The patio cleaner was easy to use one it was assembled and help to speed up the cleaning process, along with the extra nossel that gives a circular spray pattern had the job done in very little time.
Unit was easy to assemble using the instructions and pressure was great. Have not used the brush or bottle yet.
I was able to clean all my patio area and drive, easier to handle than my older stand up one with wheels. Easier to store, I keep in the house, don’t want any water in it to freeze and break pressure washer which happened to my old one. A lot easier to handle and store, a well known make.
Bought this pressure washer to clean my filthy patio . The user guide was poor and the assembly pictures ( no written instructions) weren’t that easy to follow . Once assembled I tried it on one slab on my patio and the result was excellent looks like a new slab. I have only rated as 4 stars because of the user guide but would definitely recommend
Instructions bit vague but once worked out, easy to use
Bought this to replace a karcher that just died after relatively light use, was always a pain to store with cable and hose all over the place. This all packs into/ onto the unit and carries and packs away nicely. Only used it once but worked great for cleaning van. Will have to wait and see how tgis one lasts …
I had a Karcher which died and as I’ve used a lot of Bosch tools in the past I thought this should be good. In practice it works as expected. I’ve used it for car cleaning and patio cleaning plus blasting algae off metal patio furniture. My only real complaint is that the tools are not as easy to fit and remove as my old Karcher. Other than that, it’s fine.
Great little jet wash.
I bought this to wash my motorbike and car.
I chose it because it come with a snowfoam attachment and is not a massively high pressure jet wash.
So firstly. The pressure is perfect for car washing and light dirt removal from patios. So for the money top marks.
Snowfoam attachment is nit adjustable so you have to use lots of chemical to produce a good foam. It works but could be better.
Design. It’s great. It’s very compact and pack’s away well. Top marks.
So why the but…….
The hose is ridiculously short. It isnt even long enough to wash a motorcycle without moving the machine. It basically forces you into buying the extension hose that is only 6m for 17quid.
Not the end of the world but realistically would I have been better off buying a more expensive jet was for the combined cost?
Very pleased with my purchase. Usual Bosch quality for the price point. Came in generic “frustration free” packaging. Unit was relatively easy to assemble. Had to check manual to understand what the different parts of the lance and heads were for. Very happy with the “free” accessories. Patio paving stones came up a treat. Only switched it on to test it but ended up cleaning the whole patio for an hour as it was that easy and satisfying!
Overall really good pressure washer. This is my replacement to the first one as first irder was faulty product however amazon replacement service is very good.
I am satisfied with the product and cleaned my driveway today and machine worked really well. Attachments with pressure washer are very handy which you don’t get with karcher in basic K2 model. Machine looks solid and very compact. Overall I can recommend this product to everyone. Comes with 3 year warranty. Happy day’s
I owned a bright yellow washer, but it let me down. Time for a change and I opted for a Bosch. It’s always been a great brand and a firm favourite for household white goods. I bought this and I am really pleased with its design and performance. It’s light, easy to carry around and works really well. Cleans up my two large patio areas quickly and very efficiently. I like it a lot. Good value and a really good item, easy to store away too.
Washing off patio prior to applying sealant when my old Woolworths power washer exploded. All the new ones seemed to be very expensive until I discovered this one. It does a great job. It has auto shut off and it very much easier use than my old one. From being neatly packed away to starting work takes only a couple of minutes. I’ve used it to finish the patio and to wash the cars. Its brilliant and less than half the price of similar (yellow) models.
I ordered an extra hose as the picture does not show it comes with one. Also the brush doesn’t have fitting instruction and took a while to work out… But it’s a great bit of kit would recommend
There comes a point in a man’s life where the progress lines of domesticity and realising you have to start buying more mature toys coverage and in moment of clarity you realise you don’t need a hoverboard, airsoft rifle, drone or a BMX like you had as a kid.
No, you need to unleash your suburban inner God and embrace the pressure washer. After literally seconds of research I realised this was the boring midlife tool to go for. It was more compact than others, had some good reviews and plenty of accessories so that you could not only wash stuff, but wash stuff in a slightly different way. Amazing.
Instructions aren’t up to much but then again I’m a man with a new tool, I would rather break fifteen of them than bother reading them. Anyway, it’s pretty good, it’s not mega load, it’s compact and easy to store, the accessories seem fine and I used it to clean a car – wow it totally cleaned the car.
Would I recommend? Yes of course! Am I happy I bought it? Of course not – who tye hell gets happy about buying a pressure washer, if anything I feel a little more dead inside and as though I’m on a slippery slope that leads to lead blowers and ride on mowers.
Anyway, yes it’s fine buy it.
I’ve purchased Bosch products over the years and as with this pressure washer I have yet to be let down. Admittedly, this is my first pressure washer purchase but in little time I managed to fit and power through a good clean of my patio and driveway. A few cautions are needed although nothing complicated to defeat the ease, efficiency and power of this pressure washer.
The all-in-one kit arrived neatly packed in a single box, by following the guide I managed to proudly fit it together with my first ‘serious’ cleaning machine. The main strength this Bosch pressure washer has over its competitors is the size of the main unit, similar to the size of a briefcase which can be easily held, moved around stored away. The main rod comes in half, requiring the other end to be attached as shown by the guide. Once fitted, the very end of this rod can be changed according to the type of cleaning you want with the provided ends. This also includes the patio cleaner. Initially, I found the fitting difficult, the red button needs to be pressed while fitting a chosen end into the slot. I realised I just needed to apply some additional force when holding the red button to allow the end to securely slot inside. The patio cleaner was a little more difficult, you need to unscrew the stick’s red cap all the way as the arrows suggest. Once done you can then slot the main rod, while pressing the red button, into the patio cleaner stick and screw tight. My description may still sound confusing to some but honestly, anyone can figure this out with enough time on their hand.
Onto the main function, there are few key things to note: the hose attachment and turning on the machine. You need to have a hose-end connector that allows you to securely clip onto male house spouts as you may find on your garden tap. This connector end will allow you to then connect your hose pipe to the machine, into the only connecting slot/spout on the machine. I turned on the tap and suddenly noticed leaking. Do not worry! After some panicking I would have to buy a whole new connector set, I took some time to closely read the manual and learned some leaking is perfectly expected. The water sprays out a little but not to the extent of gushing out. Finally, turn on the machine and get ready to wash away. Oh no, now the machine has turned off and the washing rod does not press! Again, do not panic as I came to realise the machine will kick back into action each time you press the power washer. The power washer rod also has a safety button on the bottom which once pressed will unlock the trigger for use. Phew, some complications to get over, I recommend reading the manual more closely than I initially did.
Cleaning with this machine is quick and easy, even for a beginner like me although patio/driveway users need some caution. I attach the desired end and press the trigger to get cleaning. The water projects at high pressure, in a neat straight line or with other attachments at a wider angle for deep cleaning. I managed to scrape off remnants of paint, cement and other dirt with a small spray. The patio cleaner works particularly well in scrubbing through like a brush against large patio tile, bringing out a puddle of dirt and grime to push away into the gutter. However, new users are warned do not to use this power washer against the grout! The high pressure is enough to blast away weak grout and will leave you with another job at hand. The best use is to clean each brick or tile if you notice the same. Otherwise, I had a blast cleaning the patio and driveway with this briefcase-sized power washer. The cable is long enough to move around flexibly and with the provided hooks, tidy away when done.
For the long-term use and trusted quality of Bosch, this power washer holds tremendous value for all types of garden users.
Amazing product for cleaning of patio slabs and pressure washing garden furniture and items. The only reason I’ve given it a 4 star rather than 5 is the car shampoo attachment which doesn’t actually foam as it’s supposed to and it finishes really quickly. May be I’ll get a separate snow foam attachment. But need to check compatibility. The general quality of the pressure washer itself is amazing and as expected from a quality brand
This is a good enough washer. It’s cleaned my paving slabs up nicely so it’s got plenty of power. It’s got some faults though. To start with the instructions are terrible and of the sort where you get lots of pictures but few words. One mysterious picture might make you think that you’re supposed to put a straightened paper clip in the nozzle to break a seal – you don’t and presumably this is how you clear it if it gets blocked but can’t really see that happening. I had problems getting it going as it kept stalling and the instructions led me to believe the hose I was using was too long or had pressure problems but no; instead it didn’t tell you it might have been supplied with the red cut-out button needing a reset before starting.
Once going it’s fine. Don’t bother to put the soap box on the side unless you’re using soap as it just falls off all the time. The hose holder also comes loose and drops off too easily. My main gripe is that even with the hose rod in its holder there’s nowhere to wind up and store its hose so you’re likely to trip on that carrying it around.
4 Stars as a fairly new purchase and need to see how it fares long term. Easy to use. When I first turned it on the nozzle was blown off and this was because I had not firmly ensured the connection. Once correctly locked in the nozzle remained in place. Good level of cleaning power. Metal connectors on the hose are a good decision from the manufacturer as I have used previous washers with plastic connections that broke. So far I am impressed
I went for the slightly more powerful version as it wasn’t that much more expensive, I feel that was a good decision. It is lightweight and you can carry it around when using it. It has a powerful jet and does a good job. A few people have mention in the reviews that they feel it is vital to get the extension cable for it but that’s not been the case for me.
I use it for washing my car and the hose is sufficiently long from the garage tap to the power washer so that any additional cable length is definitely not needed.
My last washer, as mentioned previously, was a Kasher and wasn’t portable. Honestly, it is good not to have to constantly stop washing every couple of minutes to move the heavy Karcher into position…I don’t miss that! No, this Bosch washer does an equally good job, is much lighter and is much easier to use.
Very pleased.
It has a good range of accessories and not used all of them yet. The round patio cleaner and the rotating nozzle work well. Just one word of warning don’t point the rotating nozzle upwards when pressing the trigger as the pressure of the water slams the ceramic internals together and smashes them. I had to buy a new nozzle as this happened to me, so now I always point it down before switching on.
This is a big improvement on my Karcher that lost it’s power. Hope this doesn’t go the same way. It does seem quite loud though and I’m going to get some ear plugs. I ordered the extra length extension going by other reviews but I find the one with it long enough. Suggest trying it as it is first. Also ordered the brush but I’m not keen on it, just seemed to get myself very wet and not much pressure coming through to help clean. The detergent nozzle is good and gives a wide spray of pressure. Great for taking my rubber backed mats outdoors to clean.
I am really pleased with this pressure washer. It is very compact compared to most other makes, so it is easy to move around. It is very efficient and powerful, I have used it twice since I bought it and the last time the car had a lot of mud under the wheel arches which it removed with ease.
I haven’t used the special patio cleaning attachment or fluid dispenser yet.
Pressure washer without unnecessary extras.
I bought this to clean our patio slabs and glad to have chosen this item, It has a reasonably long mains cable and lance hose. The water is connection is a standard hozelock fitting. Two nozzels and a small detergent bottle are included.
So far i have only used the adjustable fan spay nozzle and the pressure ( not adjustable on this model) sufficient on the narrow setting to rip out mortar from between the slabs. Adjusting the nozzle to allow a wider fan reduces the pressure and still enough to really clean the slabs back to ‘as new’
For such a small unit the pressure is incredible and should be used with care when starting to clean anything otherwise it might cause damage. I would advise caution when using it on any paintwork, start with the jet wide initially.
The motor and pump are a little noisy. This is completely unavoidable for a portable unit, simple physics dictates that it will generate noise.
This is yet another Bosch product that we have recently purchased, and another that is well designed and constructed. Thought has gone into every aspect of use, from assembly out of the box to storage.
The 70 i paid for this washer makes it is a bargain compare to the larger more expensive models,, and to be honest most people want something that just does the job.
I have to admit, I am very happy and surprised at the quality and performance of this pressure washer.
Out of the box it was a cinch to set up. Once that was done I connected my water supply and tested for leaks – there were none, everything fitted together tightly.
It isn’t cumbersome and it’s easy to carry with the integrated handle. I first used it to clean my 40 year-old well worn patio which hasn’t been done for I don’t know how many years, and even then it was done with buckets of water and brushes. It took ages which is why it’s not been done since.
This pressure washer did a wonderful job of it, and it took half an hour in total. I can’t wait to try it on the car next week.
It has two heads, a narrow spray head for things like patio cleaning, and a wide one which I will use on the car. It is so simple to use – connect it all up, plug it in, turn it on and then press one of the small buttons under the trigger handle and pull the trigger.
It is surprisingly powerful for such a small unit. Not so powerful that you will need two hands of course, but It surprised me with the amount of gunk it easily shifted off the patio. Seeing the clean area after seeing years of black was a revelation.
A bit noisy, but that is a small price to pay. It packs up for storage easily too, all the components including the pressure hose are stored on the unit, everything in one place.
I love it.
I’m very impressed with this pressure washer. I got the EasyAquatak 120 and it is very powerful. It’s also fun to use but messy – you will get muddy wet trousers and shoes. It’s amazing how it removes the dirt from paving stones. It’s also good at removing moss from between stones, on driveways and on walls. It’s also good for cleaning outdoor rubbish bins. It’s so powerful you have to be careful not to damage anything by getting too close with the water jet. If you use it for example on a wooden decking that has a thin glazing on it, it’s so powerful that it will strip off the glazing if you allow the water jet to get too close. I’m not going to use it on my car until I have more experience with it. I think I will order the water pipe extension that can also be ordered on Amazon. I use ear plugs when using it, as it’s a bit noisy. Note that it only makes a noise when you depress the trigger.
Delighted with this product. Tiny, weighs next to nothing and works like a dream. Weve lived here 11 years and have never cleaned the big, industrial grade council house slabs out the back. They’ve been down probably 20+ years. Assembling the machine was very easy, but the instructions are pants. Well, the FILTH that flowed out of these slabs. Disgusting. But equally, so satisfying. Fabulous bit of kit, priced really fairly and I’d thoroughly recommend.
Never having had a pressure washer before I have no comparisons to make. But I’m very happy with this model. It is light and incredibly powerful as well as being easily portable. If I was to be critical I’d say that the soap dispensing attachment dispenses far too much soap at once with no obvious way to slow it down. But the car cleaning attachment does a great job of removing dried mud and sheep droppings from the cars. The more powerful path cleaning attachment cuts through any muck on the paths. Just be very careful not to use the path cleaning attachment on the car or it will cause damage to the paint- it’s that’s powerful.
I am very impressed with this little but powerful pressure washer. It’s light weight and compact. I have used it twice so far and it does exactly what I envisaged. Bonus point is 3 years Bosch Warranty when registered.
I have several bosch branded products and they never disappointed me.
Only negative about this product is that it only comes with 5 meters of hose which is not enough for safety and convenience reasons.
I have to pay extra 15.99 to get hose extension which is also available on Amazon. It is one accessory that you can not afford to live with it. As if you washing the car, you will have to keep moving the Aquatak unit to reach back of the car. Problem is that even electric wire is 5 metres in length. I would definitely not recommend using Electric extension as water will get everywhere. You rather invest in longer pressure hose.
Apart from this, I really love this pressure washer.
I’ve come from a Karcher that was 4x the size of this unit, wanting to save some more space in the shed I chose this Bosch as the power output was nearly the same as my old model.
This pressure washer works really well it’s extremely compact with all attachments being on board and the whole thing can be packed away onto a shelf.
The variable Lance is great for washing the car and jobs which require less pressure and the dirt blaster is great at cleaning through slabs etc
The only slight negative is that it’s louder than my previous model.
This is my first pressure washer I’ve ever owned. I was caught in between buying a Karcher, Nilfisk, MacAllister, Bosch and Yardforce. I’m glad I went for this. I keep distant from the car though when using the washer, as I feel the pressure is really strong, except there is a stubborn dirt that needs blasting off. It is easy to set up and use, easy to carry as it is light weight. One disadvantage though is that the lance hose isn’t long enough, so you could find yourself carrying the unit just to reach the other side of the car. Used it to wash 2 cars simultaneously without any qualms or niggles. I’d reccomend it definitely.
Previously bought Karcher Jet washer and they kept going wrong so decided enough is enough and a change to a new brand! Bosch is a very reputable brand I decided to give this a try and very happy that I have as this is a very good product and at an excellent price too!
The Jet power of this product is easily as good as the Karcher and this nice a small to move around too, much more compact than the Karcher model. I would love to see a slightly longer cable as it is a little too short and therefore you’ll need an extension lead trailing around with you but to be honest that is the only fault with this product. Small, Compact but very powerful!
