Product Information

The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Corrective action Power & Performance: The main factors I tested for power and performance were each pressure washer’s bar pressure and motor type. Adjustable pressure settings are a must, so models with high, low, and “turbo” settings that range from 5 – over 100 bar pressure were rated the highest. I was also looking for models with brushless motors, as these are the best you can buy. Furthermore, I assessed each pressure washer’s flow rate and nozzle and spray patterns – washers with variable spray settings from 0 – 40 degrees were rated best, as these improved the versatility of the tool. Finally, if you will be doing a lot of window cleaning with your cordless power washer, you will benefit from a longer reach. In this case you should look for a washer with an extension lance. The design of this machine is quite different to many pressure washers. It’s made with a low centre of gravity, making it less prone to toppling over. It’s compact enough to be set on a table or stored on a shelf if needed.

Weighing 9.2 kg, this compact Yard Force pressure washer is sufficiently portable. It has a neat build and a large carry handle. I can see myself taking this camping to clean plates, wash off footwear, and clean the car window screen after a trip down a wet motorway. Basically – gentle tasks that don’t require a lot of power. Remember: battery life only refers to the time when the washer is on. Washing the car might take a total of 30 minutes, but you may only sporadically use the power washer for 10 minutes of that time. It comes with a range of accessories, including: an extended gun, a gutter lance, five nozzles, a rotary brush, a fixed brush and a patio cleaner unit. There’s also an integrated 1.2L detergent tank to give your cleaning an added boost. One feature that makes this pressure washer a lot more versatile is its ability to draw water from a standing source as well as a tap. This can come in exceptionally handy if you don’t have a tap near your driveway (although you will still need access to a mains power source).The hose is 6 m long, and the power cable is 5m, so you should be able to reach around cars and across small patios. If it does need moving, there are built-in wheels to help.

If you want to take your cordless pressure washer in the car, and hose down your mountain bike or dog after a day of fun in the great outdoors, consider a smaller model which can be transported easily.Some models are better suited to hosing down the bikes after going down a muddy trail, whilst others might be too powerful for this job. Equally, you might be keen to remove dried-on stains, in which case you’ll want a lot of power.

The fact that the battery only lasts for 10 minutes of continuous use is a bit of a let down. You have to be quite methodical with your approach to tasks to make sure you get the most done in the available time. This is the compromise that you need to make when it comes to powerful cordless pressure washers – if they’ve got a lot of power, running time becomes limited.

Of course, there is still quite a different between 1 kg and 4 kg, so bear in mind what jobs you’ll be doing and how long you’ll need to hold it for. Considering its price tag and power output, the Yard Force High-Pressure Washer is the best pressure washer to buy on a budget. It’s priced a lot lower than competitors with similar specifications and offers good performance overall. To remove small amounts of algae from patios, you’ll need a washer with at least 25-bar pressure . Be aware that cordless pressure washers are great for general cleaning, but if your main aim is to lift stubborn stains, you may need a mains-powered machine with around 100 bar pressure. Also, other cordless pressure washers at the same price tend to come with more accessories, which I think Wesco should look to include to provide more value to the consumer. The main benefit of going cordless is the unrestricted access it brings. Save time unravelling the hose pipe and extension cables and opt to clean better under pressure.
