Electric Pressure Washer - 160 BAR

Product Information

The only thing that slightly hinders this is the relatively short mains cable. Using an extension lead or buying a hose extension can provide a bit more flexibility. This pressure washer doesn’t come with all the attachments of larger, more expensive machines, and it doesn’t have a detergent tank, but it delivers a good compromise between price and quality. While we invest a great deal of time designing tools that are robust and made to a high standard, like all machines, at times they do fail and we like to make things straight forward and easy for you to understand. By using the different nozzles, jets and lances, this pressure washer can clean gutters and cars, and even strip moss, algae and grime from paving slabs. In fact, the finest jet is so powerful that it can visibly ‘write’ on grubby driveways. How much bar you need depends largely on the area of application. We have therefore created a table below where you can see the tasks and our recommended bar figures. But be sure to read the whole article so that you can understand our recommendations. Recommended pressures (bar) table Area of application

The first thing to consider is the amount of pressure you need. For jobs around the home, a mains-powered pressure washer will be suitably powerful – there’s no need to mess with petrol models. To compare the performance of two pressure washers, you can look at their cleaning units (CU), which takes both pressure output and water flow rate into account. By considering these factors, you can select a pressure washer with the right balance of power and efficiency for your outdoor cleaning tasks. Hose Length and Storage Design: As design is such a fundamental element of a pressure washer’s usefulness, we tested the durability of the models’ overall designs as well as the materials each part was made from. Models that felt sturdy and stable and were made from high-quality materials were ranked higher than those that felt flimsy. Hoses reinforced with steel and metal fittings, for example, were rated highly for their durability. The E160 includes a 10 mete Ultraflex hose for increased flexibility & protection, which is easily reeled in & stored using the integrated hose reel, while telescopic handle ensures optimal storage & mobilty. Ideally, an electric washer should have a pressure range between 1,800 and 2,000 psi for optimal performance.When it comes to car cleaning, look for a lower pressure setting of around 80 bar . Using as low a pressure as possible will avoid damaging paintwork and causing rust. The Bosch EasyAquatak 120 is powerful yet compact, owning a niche in the market as a very lightweight pressure washer. Exclusive to Cleanstore, the Nilfisk Excellent E160 is a highly mobile, efficient, reliable machine, currently the most powerful pressure washer in Nilfisk's domestic Excellent range. Working at 1800 W, the K4 pressure washer can spray 420 L of water per hour with 130 bars of pressure. As a result, it’s slightly less powerful than the K5 model (145 bars) but still capable of performing well to complete domestic tasks. Karcher’s range of home pressure washers varies to quite an extent, going from basic and budget-friendly to top-of-the-line and high-tech, which is where the Karcher K7 Premium Smart Control Home Pressure Washer sits.

We tested various vastly different pressure washer models in terms of their design, power, ease of use, versatility and value for money. We also assessed each model’s portability and extra features as additional tests. Here’s how we tested these key aspects of each pressure washer: Coming with a dirt-blasting lance, complete with a rotating head, the K4 is well equipped to clean dirt from tyres or wheel rims. It also has a water butt attachment to help cut water consumption, a patio cleaning attachment, patio cleaner, vario lance, and a spray lance too. Can handle water that’s up to 60°C in temperature, which is hotter than most other home pressure washers can tolerateIn the following paragraphs, we’ll dive deeper into each of these factors to help you make an informed decision when choosing the best pressure washer for your needs. Pressure Output and Water Flow Rate In terms of accessories, the Wilks-USA RX525 comes with lots of options – there’s a brush head, gutter-cleaning attachment and five different spray-nozzle attachments. This pressure washer lends itself to completing lots of different jobs and is competitively priced for such a well-equipped unit. In fact, I’d say this is the best pressure washer for included accessories. This Wilks-USA pressure washer can also achieve a maximum pressure of 262 bar with its first burst of water, which is extremely powerful. However, it isn’t capable of producing this level of pressure continuously, so it’s more realistic to call it a 155-bar pressure washer. The Nilfisk C110 Pressure Washeris a compact machine that delivers more cleaning power than you would expect from such a small, reasonably-priced pressure washer. It’s one of the best pressure washers if you want a powerful all-rounder that’s also budget friendly. This is because you can maintain a greater distance from the surface to be cleaned and still achieve sufficient cleaning performance due to the higher pressure. With a higher distance, the water jet is distributed over a larger area and you can therefore make much faster progress. However, this also depends on whether the delivery capacity is sufficiently dimensioned for the pressure. Delivery rate more decisive than pressure

As you can imagine, this means that the pressure washer performs exceptionally well. With that amount of pressure, there’s nothing around the average home and garden that this machine wouldn’t be able to clean, especially with the addition of the boost function to give you an extra 15 bar of pressure. The Plug n Clean detergent system worked impressively well too – the convenience of being able to slot a shampoo bottle in rather than having to fill (and refill) a separate container helps to get the job done much more efficiently. Weighing just 4 kg, it would be easy to not expect much from this little machine; however, Bosch have in fact created a small pressure washer that can still dish out 120 bars of pressure and clean for hours. Thanks to how most of the product is already assembled in the box , this pressure washer impresses from the get-go. You simply need to connect up the lance, gun, and hose before you’re ready to get started – most other models require you to attach handles, wheels, reels, and more. Given that this is a budget option, there aren’t as many ‘thoughtful touches’ on this machine as with more premium pressure washers. For example, it isn’t possible to store the accessories on board, and the mains cable doesn’t always store perfectly neatly over the plastic hook.bar and 360 l/h flow rate is what a pressure washer should have at least for normal household use. However, if you only want to clean your bicycle and garden furniture, you can get by with less. However, if you need the pressure washer for larger tasks around the house, you should go for one with more power. What are the benefits of high pressures? For a powerful pressure washer at a reasonable price, the Wilks-USA RX550i Electric Pressure Washer is one of the best pressure washers to consider. It’s up there with the most powerful washers, yet doesn’t cost quite as much. The Excellent E160 comes complete with a Tornado nozzle for general washing & rinsing, a Powerspeed nozzle that increases cleaning power for stubborn soilage / marking such as mould spots & a foam sprayer with detergent bottle for the application of detergent in waste reducing, cost effective fashion. The working pressure, on the other hand, is measured from the outlet of the pressure washer pump. However, it is still reduced or increased by the piping in the unit and the accessories. The working pressure is approximately 10 % – 20 % below the maximum pressure. Its Plug n Clean detergent system makes life so much more convenient, although you can only use Karcher detergent bottles for this
