I bought this thing for 57 with the understanding that it would be body only as I already have worx batteries. Instead I was sent the set worth 100 with the extra nozzles, bag and hose!
It admits that it can’t handle prop cleaning. But it can and it will.
You can use it as a watering can on shower mode, different spare widths and power, H/L power mode for when you’re just cleaning up or cleaning a bike that you don’t want to blow the grease out of.
It will finish a 2L bottle fairly quickly but that depends on how you use it as there are wasteful ways to use it and conservative ways of using it of course.
However, fill up a bucket, pit it within 3m of your work area and attach the hose connection, it clips onto the bucket and has a float so that it stays in perfect position.
I could go on and on, this thing is a god send.
Well done WORX!
And no this isn’t fake, or sponsored. Just
Love the product and happy it’s as good as I wanted it to be.

Light and portable no tap required
It’s light and portable which is main reason for purchase , really brought to take mt biking so can wash bike off before goes in car. It’s quite powerful, nothing like a normal jet wash but does the job. Also easy to use on car garden if water is hard to connect to which i do. Full charge last around 20- 30mins
I live in mid terrace so no access to water to the front of my house to wash car ECT.. this bridges that gap well rather than run hoses through my house. To wash my car I can fill a barrel from my water butt, so saving water also, it rinsed the car well but struggles with stubborn bird poo ECT, so still used brush. I used 12L of water in this unit to wash a car so wouldn’t bother with small bottles as will empty that too quickly to wash anything really. So overall I am pleased as no risk of hoses through my house and love saving the water also by using from water butt.. as an off grid washer its good but wont replace a mains water and electric pressure washer at all.

Great for small jobs
Bought this to clean a greenhouse and polytunnel on our allotment site which is off the grid. Really easy to set up and use with either the bottle adaptor or placing the hose into a bucket. Mild cleaning fluid in the bottle, rinse off with clean water from the bucket and the job is done. Good for cleaning bins, inside and out plus handy for chasing fat pigeons off the TV Ariel and messing bins lids 🙂
I really love this for washing the car when space is tight, no piped water, and no electricity. You can’t go wrong! I tried it out today. One battery charge was enough to do the wheels on very high pressure. Charged it up again and just did the whole car. So, I`ve bought another battery. Should be good to do my coupe.
It` does`t pretend to be a “Pressure Washer”.
It`s just great. You know how much water you`re using…. if you`re on a Metre. Just take the buckets out!
I`ve had pressure washers before……really difficult to use ….omg….by the time you have assembled the electricity, with extension cable, then taken out the hose and attached it to the water supply……. I lost the will to live….it all got tangled round the car. Not nice when its minus something in Scotland!!
This is great!
Top quality - immensely practical
This unit equates to having high power water hose access, literally anywhere, without the need for mains electricity or a mains water supply. Charge the battery, fill a bucket or soda bottle with water, and wham…you have a jet washer…any place any time. The pressure output is not a match for the high power mains operated units….but if you require a unit that can deliver up to ten times the pressure of a conventional garden hose, this is the unit for you. Really well engineered nozzle…just what I was looking for to clean my car and the outside of the house. A++++++++
Great produc
It works aswell as can be expected for a cordless jet washer. The pressure is a bit low but, it does the job
Excellent Tool
Very pleased with this cordless pressure cleaner. Most excellent for car washing, window frames and general jobs. Battery life is good enough to complete cleaning my SUV and then have more left over.
Still use a Karcher for heavy duty jobs like cleaning the patio and driveway, but the Worx is way more convenient – no power cables and it’ll run happily from a bucket of soapy water!
Highly recommended!
Great bit of kit.
I purchased this on a whim (when it was on offer) as I was fed-up with faffing about setting up my pressure-washer every time I wanted to clean my car or motorbike. A great addition to any garage, easy to set-up and use. I can snow-foam, wash and rinse my car on one charge of the 2.0Ah battery with enough left-over to wash the suds of my driveway (approx. 4hrs to re-charge). The collapsible bucket is just the right size to carry and will only need filling 2-3 times per car.
Sturdy enough to take the odd knock or being dropped, my only suggestion would be to either purchase an additional battery or go for the 4.0Ah version as this will give you plenty enough charge to maybe do a regular sized patio or decking. However, if you just want something for small jobs without the fuss of hoses and extension leads then you could do worse! It came with a mesh carry bag with makes it totally portable, I often take mine down to jet the saltwater off my dinghy after a sail.
I was gonna return it!
As in the title, after first use I was sure I’m going to return it, mostly due to lack of preassure and buy much more powerful corded one.
Next day after bad weather pretty all day it was time to wash it again, took Hydroshot out of the box and 10 minutes later my van was shiny again.
I think I discovered what it was actually designed for! After about 50 washes I simply love it! It is not perfect due to flimsy hose mount to the bucket which jumps out quite often during wash (gonna have to fix it myself). Don’t know if it works better with original bucket as I only have basic version.
After I ceramic coated my panel van I wash it almost daily (its spring now) it takes me about 10-15 minutes and 2 15l buckets (on a quick wash I use only one).
Not sure of battery time as it never run out during wash. I even tried to run it out once by washing my pavement but after a couple of buckets gave up… I fully charge it after every use and only use turbo mode.
It works well with Worx foam cannon (avaliable to buy elsewhere).
The gun’s power its adjustable and there are two lengths of the lance – very handy although most preassure is with long extension.
I have to say that there’s enough preassure to wash a car (I had my paint damaged at a car wash previously due to high preassure!).
The gun is pretty light and very portable.
I don’t have a tap in front of my house and was running dirty hose through it previously. I just take a bucket with me.
Now is the best part… I’m having a water catch system installed in front of my house for 25 and will use soft rain water for free!
I already save a lot of money as I was paying at least 15 to wash my van outside only. My van is black and I like to keep it clean so by washing it 3-5 times a week Worx Hydroshot have paid for itself long time ago.
It’s so portible I even planing of taking it with me on holiday.
This is longest review I ever done and hope will help people make right decision.
Worx Hydroshot shot its perfect for washing cars and super portable. If you after a high preassure buy more powerful one.
Overall very happy with the purchase and glad I didn’t return it!
Easy to use
Use my worx ,cleaning my car easy to use portable take it any ware battery life is good , good selection of extra parts
Not As Powerful As I Was Hoping For!
I done a fair amount of research and thought i would give it a try.
The kit is very good and comes with everything you need to get going, other than a full charge of the battery. I was never expecting it to compete with a powered pressure washer, but i did expect a marked improvement over the standard hose pipe…….i was wrong, the increase is marginal.
I gave it a try on my lightly soiled car and it seemed like a huge amount of effort to remove the surface layer. I tried the various lances and settings but no real difference.
In the end i gave up and resorted to the garden hose and a sponge.
I really wanted it to work well, but it didnt meet my expectations, maybe a higher voltage would increase pressure, i’m not sure. The worx range is a sound idea, but i do believe in this area, its certainly not a jack of all trades!

Great bit of ki
I read many reviews before purchase many good some bad, most where about lack of pressure, after setting up I found the most likely cause of this lack of pressure, the supplied hose has a filter on the end which you put into your bucket or whatever water supply you have chosen, I found that this caused the end of the hose to float (often above the waterline) so I have attached a small weight to the end (fishing weight or similar) now all is good and I have a good pressure at least until water supply comes to an end. A good quality tool and has already proved useful compared to a large pressure washing machine which is not as mobile and requires tap and electric mains.
Really impressed with this tool, sure it’s not the power of a mains pressure washer but it’s still got its uses.
So far I’ve used it to blast away 6 months of dust and dirt from my bike which it did with ease. Also used it to clean our balcony windows/facade that constantly gets covered in dust and the table and chairs. Most recent use was on the grout lines in the shower at our rental apartment which were black in areas which even scrubbing with a brush wouldn’t remove.
The washer has two modes of power (low and high). The low mode isn’t worth bothering with unless you’re watering plants or something light. I used the high mode for all of the jobs mentioned above which worked very well. On high mode the included battery will last for nearly 3 mop buckets (10L per bucket) full of water before it’ll need charging. This was more than enough to do both sides of the external balcony windows (9 in total).
Can’t fault this jet washer for its convenience, portability and power. Really useful if you don’t have the convenience of a outdoor tap.

Good for purpose I bought it for.
As many have said not as good as a mains powerhose, so don’t buy it if that is what you require. However, if you need it just for cleaning your car (actually the lower pressure is a plus here) or general hose down use this is perfect. You don’t have the cumbersome electric power cord wrapping around the seemingly inflexible water hose attached to the power hose machine. You only need a bucket to take as your water source anywhere you need it. Why 4 star cannot comment on durability.
A useful little piece of ki
We have the normal Karcher jet washer in the shed but it can be a bit of a faff to set up just for a small job (like washing out the wheelie bins) so this is excellent. I bought the larger capacity battery and it last for absolutely ages. I also bought the “pop bottle” connector. This enables you to fill a 2 litre plastic pop bottle with water and wash using just that. The water pressure isn’t as high as the Karcher but its good enough for many jobs. The collapsible bucket and hose work very well. I am very happy with my Hydroshot which I have now had for a few months.
Tools and customer support you can trust..
Hubby`s 3rd item from the Worx range, He loves them especially the interchangeable long life batteries that fit other tools in the Worx range. Customer support was absolute fantastic, no call waiting , clear and concise and understand their own products. Hubby said Worx will be his tools for life..
As for the Hydroshot He loves it for his building maintenance, lightweight for getting up ladders (goes where pigeons leave there droppings). Third of the power of a cable Jetwasher so windows can be cleaned without cracking and paint flying off surrounds..
As for home use , vehicles cleaned in minutes as you don`t need to unravel long hose pipe and trailing power lead, even stands at back door and waters the plants and lawn with the low nozzle setting..
Nice one Worx !!!!
Ok this solves the problem of no water supply ie hose connectors
It is what it is a small but powerful jet wash
And I found the mess factor to be low ie my big jet wash is powerful but you end up like you’re swimming
With water and mess everywhere
This jet wash takes longer but it’s much easier to use and seems quite heavy and strong like most worx tools
So use it for those hard to jet wash places like flat balconies or difficult to reach access areas
It will take ages to jet wash big areas but much more convenient
If you’re having a water fight it would be unbeatable

Good portable washe
Spray not quite as good as an electric power washer but cleans car well. Battery seems to last and not long to charge; I just wish there was a standard system for batteries across manufacturers as five different battery tools so 5 batteries and chargers!
I received mine with a missing soap bottle, but amazon as always were very helpful and tried to source a replacement but could not and instead gave me discount twards my next order to the value of the missing soap bottle.. THANK YOU!!
Now as to the item in question….There have been a few mixed reviews regarding this item…. And I can understand why..
If you expect it to be like a normal pressure cleaner then you will be disappointed.. especially when using water from the bucket. But thats to be expected, if you think otherwise then again you will be disappointed..
BUT if you understand that it is a handy portable low pressure cleaner for light work that you can use anywhere where there is no mains tap then it is a ideal little gadget for cleaning rinsing your car, motor bike, patio etc….
Also please keep in mind to those that said it worked fine then pressure dropped and was not working properly… There is a small filter in the gun itself.. where the hose attaches to the gun… unscrew the orange connector and inside there is a filter… which can block up easy as it did to me..just remove the small disc filter and rinse it and all be ok again. as the with the filter on the end of hose that goes into bucket… clean regularly… for me its ideal and handy… I RECOMMEND IT!
Compact and ligh
Compact box small yet powerful machine good battery life
Battery can be used on other worx machines also
Light ideal for jobs which you can’t get to with a water hose
Effective to wash a muddy MTB
This product is ideal to wash a bike. Being battery powered, the pressure is good, but not too high, so it won’t blast grease away from bearings and other moving parts. A muddy MTB can be washed with something like 10 litres of water. I use two old 5 litre mineral water bottles to take water with me. Great equipment!
Great piece of kit .
Great little pressure washer for waxing cars etc ,but do recommend purchasing the soap bottle to go with it (9-99).
2 settings high and low pressure ,I use it on high pressure on the car ,and it does a great job,probably use about half a bucket of water ,very economical.
Saves dragging the hose out ,then the bucket,and rinsing off ,I find it easy work to use ,I would recommend it ,battery probably lasts about 15-20 minutes .price has gone up since I purchased it !!!!
Ideal for Car and bicycle washing
Bang on for my needs.
I’ve not got a patio so one of the “normal” pressure washers work but I don’t really need that power and it can damage paintwork and bearings (on bikes) so this portable unit is ideal.
It has enough pressure to remove dirt from a car but not enough to damage bearings on the bike, winner. The fact that it’s battery operated is ideal for mountain bikers who drive to a trail get dirty and can at least wash the bike before going home.
The only complaint is the price, yes you can get a refurbished Karcher K2 for 45-50 but you need a plug and you shouldn’t wash a bike with it.
If you have a patio/block work/drive needing cleaned buy a Karcher.

Expectations......
This works perfectly for my intended use, car washing, garden furniture etc.
If you expect a battery powered item to blast very heavy grime or algae off your patio you may be disappointed.
It’s not under powered but not the one to buy for anything that needs real blasting.
I find it has enough power to clean a months build up on my car with no problems, this isn’t industrial strength IT’S BATTERY POWERED !
I would say if you plan to wash a very large van or clean his and her cars I’d buy the larger battery, mine has never run out washing and rinsing thoroughly but it would not last for a second car or motorcycle.
Not for stubborn stains
It’s the nuts , if you want a real jet was buy one but for keeping on top of general cleaning great. I use to disinfect garden have 3 dogs put a little disinfect in bucket and way you go . Battery good for full on 30 min all good . It won’t remove stubborn stains but buy cheap second washer for that great product.
Very useful tool
For a cordless device this is pretty good. It is so easy to get ready, compared to a mains power washer.
However, it can’t equal the output of a mains one, which is usually about 1500 watts – this is more like 250watts, so it takes longer to do a job.
It is really good at cleaning alloy wheels, you just have to spray on a bit of cleaner first. You can also do the whole car, a small area of paving , or a boat deck. Again, it is much better if you use some liquid cleaner, whereas a mains unit’s higher pressure might do the job without it.
Where it really scores is on convenience of use. A bucket of rainwater goes quite a long way, and you can also use hot water if needed. If you get the pop-bottle adaptor, it is completely self -contained – although 2 litres of water doesn’t last very long – very useful if you need to go up a ladder. Because it uses water so economically, you could use it in a drought without getting in trouble; and in winter you don’t finish up with water everywhere like with a mains washer, and you don’t have to worry about getting your mains electric cable wet. You could even use it indoors, if you’re careful, e.g. to clean a shower area. Because it’s so easy to use, I do things “as and when” rather than waiting until it’s worth getting the Karcher connected up.
So like most gadgets, it’s “horses for courses”. A few words of advice: don’t use dirty water, or you’ll have to keep cleaning the filter, which is very small. And get a spare battery, the bigger the better, if you want to keep working with it for very long. I got a 6 Ah one, and I haven’t managed to run it down yet.
Mobility
Have found it very useful being able to set up quickly with the buckets of water
Only used it for car washing plan to try it on other jobs too
The service was good & the produc
I was very pleased with my hydroshot pressure washer, I love it because it’s cordless & of course it depends what you want to use it for, I have arthritis quite bad, but I’m happy with my purchase, very handy & it does what you want it to do
👍👍 Does what it says it does
Does the job Cleans the car well. No good on dirty rims though need to use a brush!! But what can you expect from a battery run presher washer. Im still very pleased with it I cant wait to use on the static carava
Purchased this primarily for mountain biking, which it does very well! battery lasts long enough to hose off 2 bikes thoroughly, my only snag was I planned to use the 2L Bottle adapter and wash off 2 bikes with a couple of 2L bottles but that dream soon died – this thing can drain a 2L bottle in about 15-20 seconds.
What I’ve done is purchase a 25L jerry can which I keep in the boot of my car with about 10L of water in it, heavy enough that it wont fall/spill and then just put the included hose into it & I’ll probably use the same method for car washing etc as well rather than running the garden hose around.
Admittedly you won’t be ever be cleaning the patio with it, and perhaps if your car is exceptionally filthy you’d be better off with a powered pressure washer – but for regular cleans etc this thing is brilliant, I’ve also used it to hose off my windows/doors and even blasted some particularly stubborn dirt off the bath…. not many pressure washers you can use indoors!

Not enough Pressure
Bought this because can use same batteries as my other Worx tools. Also more convenient when washing the car than dragging a long hose out which keeps getting kinked. The only drawback is there is not really enough pressure to remove stubborn dirt from car I get more pressure from my normal hose pipe.
It's ok for car washing
Does what it says which is to pump water from a bucket through the nozzle. It is not a jet wash and does not have pressure as such but for washing a car it is fine. I bought the additional 4.0 battery for more power. Washed 2 cars using the soap dispenser and it took 3 black builder buckets of hot tap water per car (1 for prewash and soap foam, 2 for rinsing and wheels). Also washed the engine and wheel arches. It’s portable which is good, the reason I bought it is because all my local hand car wash places are managed by pillocks and poor migrants on 50p per car wage who scratch your paintwork with the zips on their clothing and miss out parts of the car, I’ve had a few arguments with the pimps and decided to wash myself.
great product, ideal for 'on the go' projects
Bought this for use on our boat as we have no electricity onboard. My husband loves it and has recommended it to many of his friends and family. He put the hose straight into the river and I also pointed out that if there was water in the boat at any time he could also use this to pump that out!
Easy to use, light weight and portable…thoroughly recommended!!
Good quality.
Good idea, good quality.
Could do with a bit more pressure, but hey it’s a portable battery operated jet wash.
Dose what I need it to do.
Great Purchase
It may not have the full power of a mains pressure washer but it is excellent for when you can’t be bothered with all the hassle associated with a plug in unit. Ideal for washing the car or conservatory or keeping the yard and driveway clean. The big advantage is the flexibility for keeping in the car, with the use of a 2 litre bottle it is perfect on the low pressure setting for rinsing off the the dog after a walk in the woods (The Dog Loves it) . It won’t replace a high power unit but it is much more convenient and has many more uses. If you have a larger car or a 4×4 and want to get up around the wheels etc, you will probably be advised to keep a spare battery.
Good power and versatility
A little expensive but this is a fine pressure washer with decent power. I bought it to clean my golf trolley of mud during the winter muddy months. Bought a 5 litre jerrycan for this job. Haven’t used it for that yet but have used for other things and I am impressed. Battery only lasts about 15 – 20 minutes before needing a recharge, however that is plenty of time to do what it was bought for. Probably enough time to wash the car thoroughly too. Adjustable pressure speeds so can also be used to wash off muddy pets after their walks. Recommended.
I found this unit easy to manage and use with the minimum of preparation. I have used it successfully for cleaning my wrought iron gates and washing our cars. It does not have the power of a mains powered pressure washer but this is compensated for by it’s ease of use as well as it’s mobility at home and on trips away when you only need a bucket of water to enable its use. This is presuming the battery is charged.
Having read the reviews, most were about washing cars and bikes. I used it today to wash our Goldie after a beach walk.
If you have a dog that loves mud and water, then this is a really useful addition to carry in the car. The beauty of this is that the pressure is high enough to wash the mutt down, with hurting them. Certainly the plant watering setting can be used on the head. I found the 40 degree angle setting idea for washing him down.
It won’t remove everything, but certainly makes him more presentable to take home!
No quite a pressure washer but very good.
Perfect for what I needed, car, general cleaning. Just remember it’s not a full on pressure washer but not too far off. A 4 ah extra battery would be a good addition as the 2 ah is only just enough to properly clean a car.
Quite impressive
AS long as you get this not expecting immense pressure that’ll rip the skin off your fingers you should be happy! It’s more than good enough to clean the cars, I’ve washed my decking with it, cleaned rubbish off of concrete etc. The battery lasts about 20 minutes – it’s a great solution for not trailing wires around, or if you don’t have an outdoor tap!
Good quality and easy to pull apart for storage and put back together to use
I got this and I was presently surprised how good it is when fully charged I had time to wash the car and still time to do the windows on my house I connected to my hose but if you do it from the bucket it works just as good all you need to do is keep filling the bucket over all well worth the money
Don’t purchase jet nozzle
It works very good but one thing you should not purchase is the super jet nozzle as it does not work at all the houseing that should under pressure just does not marry together just sprays water all over the place
Whilst its true the power output from this is less than a ‘conventional’ pressure washer, probably about 1/2 power, I find that a soap coating, leave for 10 minutes, sponge all over then rinse off, throw a leather over afterwards and it works a treat. I have a new(ash) Mini Countryman (For size comparison) and it’ll do three whole washes on one charge with the standard battery. I managed a wash on just one bucket of warm water and the car was a proper tip to start with, so well happy, its also great for watering your plants etc and can draw water from a water butt too, but the extra 2L water bottle adapter for a fiver and you’ve got a pretty awesome piece of kit. 4.0A non original batteries are on eBay for about 35 if you need more power or longer running. Great bit of kit, now…Anyone want to buy a Karcher ?

suitable and practical
My van is a sprinter XLWB, costs me 17 to get it washed at my local wash place.bought this as I was spending 17 every week. after brooming with my telescopic soapy broom,all I need is my worx to wash the soap.bucket of 20L clean water to rinse just leaves 1 bar battery left with all water gone that’s exactly 18mins at full power.
After 6 washes I’ll have got my monies worth,. Power is fine I mean you can’t put a price on practicality,shoots decent.
Only downside if you wash your car make sure total run time doesn’t exceed 20mins otherwise you’ll find yourself with a dead battery and still a half-washed car.
Good Pressure Washe
Very good for cleaning the car.I found it best to use washing up liquid as it lasts long enough to wash whole car.The Halfords Shampoo liquid ran out after 3 minutes.The spray itself works very well, not too much pressure,that would possibly damage paintwork.The battery lasted long enough to soap car and rinse.As I have to wash 2 cars I bought another battery.I am going to use it occasionally to clean my windows and surrounding frames and also to clean my roof guttering .I also cleaned my muddy boots which worked really well.
brillia
bought for my husband. he loves it.
brilliant tool to wash a car or just pavement outside my house. good battery life. he loves it. he tries to force me to use it, not amused. i prefer him to wash my ca
A great battery operated pressure washer for light to medium tasks
If you need a portable pressure washer for light to medium tasks, then this is perfect. Washing cars, cycles, etc are ideal use cases. I used it on a bike and my car and happily got 30+ mins of run time. However, if you’re looking to clean your patio or driveway, then this isn’t really the right tool for that job. In tests, it is indeed powerful enough to clean the bricks and slabs, but the battery will not last the whole job. Better off going for a mains-powered pressure washer on those occasions.
GOOD PRODUCT
Yes just what I needed! no wires to fall over— have got an outside water supply so that’s a bonus. Pressure GOOD great to get rid of all the muck picked up under wheel arches. Easy to use. Just attach to my hose and off I go—- love it.!! Yes I give this a 5. Being a Sagittarian I love gadgets !!!
The commodity of doing a jet wash clean without a source of water nearby is excellent!!!
Bought with a certain intention but the possibilities of his use is quite diversified…
I state this because by living in a building, there was no better option to clean the balcony from my uninvited pigeons
The only remark to say is basically the capacity of the battery provided (no more than 15min).
Very good for car cleaning. Not having enough pressure to damage the paint work. You can have it working anywhere without messing about with extensions. Very pleased with the whole setup.
If you buy this thinking you can blow paint off a panel or clear a large house of lichen then you are going to be disappointed and should go for a mains-driven, mains water-supplied power washer by Karcher or similar. If you have no water or electricity supply, the area you want to clean is smaller, and you are happy to take a little bit longer then this is for you. I received it this morning, charged the battery (it took about three and a half hours from flat, probably be much quicker from only part-discharged) and proceeded to my garden to clean the floor of my rabbit run. Chucked the hose into a nearby water butt and started; I finished a three metre by one metre run in about ten minutes. It was so much quicker and easier than a bucket and a stiff brush and was very economical with the water.
Try to keep the washer going as it takes a good moment to pick up the pressure again after stopping with a full hose.
All-in-all this serves my purposes admirably and I am pleased with my purchase.
GOOD: portable, quite light, adjustable spray, no faf with hoses (but you can connect it to mains water if you want to), easy to store.
LESS GOOD: If you want any power, you really have to keep it on the narrowest jet setting.
It is what it says – between a powered spray and a power washer. You can lift dirt off many surfaces (I used it on the car/wheels) and it is OK but NOT as potent as a proper power washer. 4 stars, because it would be nice to have just a little more power for the car washing so you could blast dirt with a slight fan spray.

A worth while tool for convenience.
This is not a power washer but is great for remote washing down where no power or mains water readily available. I use it for washing down a motorhome using two buckets of water with appropriate cleaner in one and rinser in the other. Produces a spray of water without causing damage to mastic seals. A bit expensive for the job but the convenience makes up for the cost.
It’s a pleasure to use.
I put the hose into a bucket of hot water and clean my bicycle.
I’m looking for other things to clean, like windows or even my teeth. I haven’t tried that yet.
They make wonderful Christmas presents. Jesus would have used it for the cleansing of sins.

NOTE: I HAVE GIVEN THIS EQUIPMENT 5 STARS ONLY BECAUSE IT DOES THE JOB I BOUGHT IT FOR.
If I were to use this pressure washer for cleaning the car, even at maximum pressure I would rate it as 2 stars. It DOES NOT get the muck off even when pre-treating car with a traffic film remover.
If I were to use this pressure washer for cleaning paths, drives and patios I would, if it were possible, give it a negative rating. It didn’t do anything but wash the loose dust off my patio. The ground in dirt remained even after treating with a proprietary path/drive cleaner first. I understand there is a nozzle which can be fitted to give a similar effect to a well known ‘dirt blaster’ but I do not have one so cannot comment.
Superb cordless pressure washer and ideal for washing our motorhome which is stored in a secure compound. As there’s no water to use we take a large bin with some water in it, shampoo and a container of hot water and bobs your uncle! Shampoo the motorhome, including the top and then power wash it off. Fully charged battery did the job and still had charge left in it. If you bear in mind that it’s cordless, so not as powerful as a mains unit, nevertheless it works very well indeed.
I highly recommended this product. Have cleaned a couple of cars and our windows thus far. It makes light work of both and the soap dispenser certainly gives a good coverage.
. Spray
. Soap
. Rinse
Job done and the battery easily lasts on a full charge.
Had this cordless washer for a little while and so far used it to clean my shed roof, refuse bins and of course my cars. I can honestly say that it is pretty true to its own marketing write up. Doesn’t replace the jet power washer, use it for jet washing lighter cleaning jobs. If access to hosed water source is not possible and connecting to mains is unavailable , this tool is perfect . Cleaning a medium sized car I’ve used approx 2 ten litre buckets of water! That’s to initially to wet the car/ foam the car with a foam dispenser bottle/ then rinse off. The pressure to clean a car is quite adequate . So much easier than sponging the car etc. Reckon I can wash 2 medium sized cars on one full charge of the battery. The only gripe is that you better have all the water you’ll need for your job at hand, otherwise you’ll be going back and forth to the tap to fill the bucket , and that’s irritating. Learnt that on my first few jobs !!! Happy shopping
If you expect a high power pressure washer when ordering this, prepare yourself for disappointment.
If, on the other hand, you are after a portable, capable and versatile machine for washing your car, motorhome, boat, caravan, motorcycle etc without ready access to a mains water supply or power source, then this may well be as perfect for you as it s for me.
I bought the standard Hydroshot without all the accessories as there were several I wouldn’t have used, instead choosing to buy the soap bottle accessory, the 4.0ah battery and a fast charger instead.
Charging with the regular charger is a fairly slow process, even with the regular 2ah battery supplied, but once fully charged I found it was sufficient to rinse, soap and then rinse off the car. Pressure using the finest nozzle setting was good enough to get most heavy deposits off. On with the soap bottle and I covered the car in a layer of snow foam; whilst this didn’t produce a thick mass of foam like you’d get with something like a Karcher mains powered model, it still covered the car in a satisfying and efficient layer of foam. Rinsing off was a piece of cake and there was still life left in the battery.
I’ve since used it to wash our motorhome from top to bottom, thoroughly clean my motorcycle and various jobs around the home. Although I have a nice Karcher in the garage, I find that I’m using it less and less. The Hydroshot isn’t so powerful that it’s going to cause damage to the motorhome, force water under window seals or blast grease from the motorcycle bearings. It packs down small enough that I can take it anywhere and use safely on almost anything.
In short, I love it and I’d not want to be without one again.

Amazing power for a battery powered device. On maximum power with narrowest jet width – this pressure cleaner easily removed DRIED gloss paint from concrete patio slabs.
OK so the battery does not last long at high power but wow it’s impressive while it does!!!! It’s NOT a pressure washer but works where mains powered device will never be able to access and works impressively well
Love it!!

Good desig
I Use this for washing bird mess etc off my patio.
Pressure not much more than good hosepipe but with much less water and no faff with hose pipe. Can move easily to various parts of the garden. Battery reasonable in duration
Does what I bought it for.
Bigger battery
Only used it once so far and it’s ok, probably better with a bigger battery.
Depends what you use it for.
Far cheaper than anywhere else I tried.
I am really pleased with the performance of this product. I read various reviews before purchase as I have no access to water so I was interested to know how this product worked drawing water from a bucket for example. The pressure of water jet produced was good. I primarmily want this product for car cleaning and for this it performs well. For other pressure washing jobs I can’t comment. I did purchase the 4ah battery as well as the battery supplied does limit run time to about 30 minutes

Good for light use!
Good for light use! it isnt powerful enough to clean patios or decking but does a good job on cars / motorbikes / Push bikes etc. Very easy to use and great accessories. I bought to use on my dirt bikes after track days before loading them and it works just fine.
4 stars so far. Will update in a few months time. Read the reviews of all the previous purchasers. They have it well covered. Great for cars and motorbikes (which had been my intended use). Battery takes a while to charge from new but lasts well. Batteries/charger can be used with other Worx products (hedge trimmers, chainsaws, mowers, etc.). Ideal for my needs as I ride a bike all year round. NOTE: that the max inlet pressure is 0.5 barg. Average water pressure in our neck of the woods is 1 barg at the property boundary.

I was a bit sceptical about buying this product but I watched numerous You tube video’s with the mixed reaction they were giving in the end I thought the only way to find out if this product would do what you want is to buy one and find out all I wanted it for was to wash my Peugeot Partner and general window cleaning etc I think the standard battery is a bit limited so I purchased 2 x 20v 4ah Batteries and it makes all the difference you are not worried about the battery running out before you are finished and I do believe that the larger battery gives thr Hydroshot a bit more power the foaming attachment works great with either a little washing up liquid mixed with water for the window’s or snow foam for the car the short and long lance work well but I think the brush is a little to soft I have not used the Folding bucket the Clip provided for holding the hose in the bucket keep’s on coming off so I purchased a small spring clamp from Wilkinsons for a 1 and that works far better just keep 2 buckets of water available I am really pleased with the purchase the Variable spray patterns are great and handy from a spot water shot to a nice soft water broom pattern if like me you were a little sceptical don’t be buy it and try it youself not a cheap option with the added batteries agreed but good if you have no water supply close to where you want to work and also to have a portable put in the boot of the car option I hope this review help’s others to make up there mind about the Great Worx Hydroshot.
Bought as a gift for my Son in Law he had parked his car under a tree and had quite a lot of bird poo on the front, he was outside cleaning his car shortly after unpacking this gift. He loves it and felt the need to tell all the male family how good it is.
Received this today, bought it as we can’t have a hose pipe so to wash cars/ bicycles means lots of trips wuth buckets of water, so my husband used it to wash his bike after a muddy ride and was very impressed, ths detergent bottle doesnt hild much not sure if it will be enough for car have to see how it fairs, on the whole really pleased would recommend
Used this onces or twice now doing windows and small jobs around the garden I have to try it on the Car yet so that will be the test for me. Originally purchased for use cleaning down my boat, as there is no close Water pipe, also no Water tap where I park the Car.
I have purchased another battery as a back up.
Smaller type jobs ideal don’t think it’s powerful enough for Patio slabs though.

It works
I didn’t like not having the option to buy the battery at same time thought it was with it but then it was my mistake. Great piece of kit saves me getting all the other tools out only need a bucket of water and away you go. Really pleased will purchase later another battery.

Washed my car really well and it’s a fantastic idea to be able to just use a bottle of water or any standing water. Great not having to trail a long hose . Ok it’s not good enough to do the pathing slabs or decking but it’s just right to clean the car and windows. Only lasts 20mins I would recommend a second battery and maybe the fast charger.

Can’t get hose out to my car so this is a brilliant product.
It does not have the power of a pressure washer (doesn’t claim to be one)but it does have good enough pressure for rinsing my car which is what I bought it for.
Very happy with purchase.
What an amazing bit of kit. I have a penthouse appartment and unfortunately can’t run a pressure washer for car/Camper/motorcycle cleaning. This solved the issue. Draws water from anywhere, produces a sensible pressure for automotive work, not so strong that it can damage paintwork like a mains power washer.
Combined with the snow foam attachment it is an amazing cleaning tool.
It is perfect when away from home too, ideal for the camper or giving the bike a proper clean after track sessions
Pleased with this, not as powered as would have liked but expected this from previous reviews. However its great for washing down decking as no tap outside. Uses water quickly though so find refilling bucket so often a bit of a nuisance but has made things easier as we have four dogs and cleaning is esssential.
Word hydroshot - better than expected.
Worx hydroshot. Surprisingly good power and very easy to use right out of a bucket of water. Battery has lasted a good 20 minutes and it’s still going.
Recommended…
Excellent, very glad that I purchased this item. Very versatile. Perfect for cleaning the car and worked superbly dispensing the snow foam using the accessory bottle. My only problem has been trying to register the extended 3 year warranty. Worx UK initially would not accept my Gmail address as valid. I had to register the 3 year warranty with Worx USA (who would accept my Gmail address? But probably not valid?). But at least I’m on Worx records. I finally got Worx UK to accept my Gmail address and register my warranty but only after the 30 day period for the extended 3 year warranty had expired! So they have only given me the standard 2 year warranty. But I will persu this further. You cannot register the item without the serial number, which you can’t find until you receive the item. Worx use date of purchase for warranty registration, but they should take into consideration dispatch and delivery dates. Part of my order has only recently been dispatched, well beyond the 30 day registration period already !
Men are a funny lot aren’t we…dont need a map I know where we are going and didn’t read the instructions the later being the case with the worx hydrology!
So having excitedly unpacked this box of awesomeness I hurriedly ran outside to wash the car.
As the tension built as the water slowly ran towards the spray gun from my bucket of water you could cut the excitement in the air with a bread knife..then like a drunken Romeo after a Friday night out the excitement gave way to disappointment as a pathetic spray erupted from the nossel.
What???? This is crap..but hang on there were great reviews what had I missed ???
A quick YouTube search and there it was…push the HIGH POWERE BUTTON!!!
BOOM A JET AS POWERFUL AS NIAGRA FALLS CAME SQURITING FROM THE HYDROSHOT!!!
BRILLIANT so a clean car, gutters and caravan have ensued since getting it.
It’s not going to be as strong as a main power washer but then it’s not meant to be.
All in all 9/10 for an easy to use versatile jet wash….REMEMBER TO PUSH THE HIGH POWER BUTTON WHEN YOU USE IT
Attached photo of my newly washed car! See other reviews to see what polish I used. Hope this review helps and have a fab day
Happy overall except for short battery life!
Happy overall with the hydroshot, it is powerful enough for most applications, although, as it states, it will not do heavy duty cleaning. My only complaint is the 20V 2.0AH battery that is included, takes a long time to charge and will only last for about 20 mins of continuous use. I have now bought the worx 20v 4.0AH battery and this seems to last a lot longer.
I bought this recently to wash the car as i get back ache doing it all by hand now and i must say i am very impressed with it. It’s never going to be as powerful as a plug in electric one as it’s only run off a battery but it does have 2 settings and it’s completely portable and that’s where it’s usage comes in. It took me approximately a quarter of the time to wash the car compared to the old bucket and sponge etc. A quick wipe down with a chamois leather and job done. I went for a plastic fold down bucket from a different seller and that would hold 20 ltrs. I only half filled it and i still had some water left over at the end.
I will certainly be taking it on our touring holiday as all i need is a charged up battery, somewhere to fill the bucket and away i go. Anywhere at any time.
Will do the job but the battery will not be ...
Will do the job but the battery will not be able to cover a big car (bmw 5 series) wash + foam + wash. But will fit different battery brand as well. I have a guild battery that is identical whit worx one that fit.
Its not a pressure washer, so don’t expect it to match a Karcher or similar mains powered unit. Its a very fast water jet that works better than the hose, and will get rid of the muck, just takes a bit more time. That’s all I expected though, so I am happy as it saves me trawling out the Karcher for all but the muckiest job. For a battery powered jet washer, its great.
Great tool, im use it nearly every day and takink with me in car when i going for bike ride. I bought it for 129 and not regret it. Now its full set only for 105 what its great price. Its also compatibile with Erbauer 18V tools from Screwfix and they come with quick charger what is also compatibile. 18V and 20V tools have are absolutly same power because 20V its when its battery fully charged and 18V its nominal voltage. Its marketing 18V and 20V.
Brillant product, great power and usefull on the go
I am a landscape Gardiner and its verry usefull for cleaning up at the end of the day. Also at my house I have spring water so it is great for cleaning the car.
The only noticable draw back is battery life. It is well worth having a few bateries as it lasted about half an hour on the battery they supply.
Buying this because of living in a flat, great product great for light cleaning, not a jet washer!! But for a battery powered power washer it is great very light and easy to store foam cannon is my favourite thing it does as helps when cleaning the car as it lacks a little bit of extra power.
One piece of advice is invest in a second battery from worx get the 4mh 20v. As battery life is not fantastic, found myself rushing to finish rinsing my car off before the battery dies.
It is a fantastic bit of kit if you are like me and live in a flat and want to clean your car this is definitely the solution, for get the price buy it.
