About this deal

This is a lot of pressure washer – and for many people, it will be too much. It is great to have all that power when you need it. And with the attachments, you will be able to do a professional job in any condition and on any surface. Conclusion Wasn't one of the listed fittings, but the customer services folks were able to help me find one that did fit. Despite being based in the United States, Wilks are serious enough about looking after their UK customers, that in addition to offering a 24-month warranty, they also have a free to call UK based support line for all queries & support. OK, at just over 22 Kg most domestic users would consider this to be a heavyweight cleaner despite the fact it’s sold as “lightweight”, although to be fair, it’s relatively lightweight as far as commercial pressure washers go, and it’s a pretty compact unit too, considering the beast of a motor that sits inside. At 94 cm tall and just 32cm deep and 36 cm wide it will fit neatly into most shed or garage. The K4 is perfect for cleaning patios and driveways because it comes with a surface cleaner, stone detergent and a range of lances and brushes.

It’s very clear that this pressure washer sits in a premium category above the likes of Bosch and Karcher. The build quality both externally and internally combined with the power output make it stand out. You will pay more than the entry-level machines but it still represents really good value for money. Features and Benefits The flat spray of the 15° nozzle got right into the corners and cleaned a slightly wider section, but the turbo wand was the ultimate tool for the real ground in dirt and grime. It really made the most of the 3,800 psi or 262 bar peak pressure level.

One pressure washer that has all of these things is the Karcher K7 Premium Full Control Plus Home. You wouldn’t believe how many driveways we cleaned (for free!) to be able to tell you that this is the best pressure washer for cleaning your driveway and patio. A yellow 15° high pressure nozzle is the ultimate patio cleaning flat sprayer in my opinion. You can focus the jet on a small enough area to clean off all but the most stubborn bits, but it can still work fast. It’s not a good idea to use this nozzle on your car or motorbike though. It’s a bit too aggressive for that.

Wilks-USA RX550i Electric Pressure Washer 3800 PSI with Patio

The Wilks-USA RX550I unit comes with a 26-metre-long pressure hose (2 hoses supplied, 1x 18 metre + 1x 8 metre), so you can leave the machine a long way from where you are working and not need to move it around. At full flow, the pump uses 522 litres of water per hour or 8.7 litres per minute. Noise The range of nozzles that stow nicely away in the body of the washer transform this big beast into a flexible tool that can be gentle as well as powerful. A less expensive jet washer is only good for blasting concrete, while the Wilks can clean off my car paint without destroying the clear coat on top as well. Some people say that the true cost of owning a house is having to look after the garden. For a lot of people, cleaning off a dirty patio or manky garden furniture is a job that’s either left to the professionals or forgotten about entirely. And that’s because doing it by hand is a painful and thankless task! Scrubbing down a sooty garden wall is no one’s idea of fun, after all. Although my first impression of the Wilks USA RX550i wasn’t good, thanks to a useless manual and a few swapped out parts, it was thankfully just a temporary blip. Once I’d fiddled with all the parts and worked out what did what, I found this to be a very useful tool to have around.Overall, this was a disappointing start. It shouldn’t be too much to ask for a proper parts list and a bit better manual for a pressure washer that has so many accessories and a whole lot of potential. Unless you’re already familiar with pressure washers, it could take you a while to get to work. When you are buying a driveway or patio pressure washer it’s handy to get as many accessories included as possible. Most of the pressure washers on this list come with suitable extras that make them perfect for concrete cleaning.

Wilks-USA RX550 Highest-Powered Electric Pressure Washer

This powerful pressure washer gets its grunt from a massive 3,000 Watt copper wound induction motor. You get a maximum pressure of 262 Bar that drops to 155 Bar working pressure. It’s a fair drop in pressure, but this washer did everything I asked of it so I’m not complaining. I have owned a variety of pressure washers in the past, including a K'Archer R5 and the RX550 appears to surpass them all. So far, I would say I am delighted. Whereas in the past I have had to buy attachments separately, the RX550 came with everything I need - in the box. Some of the attachments will never be used such as the extension hose. If you’re looking for a realistically priced pressure washer which is capable of delivering the kind of cleaning power that you’d expect from an expensive commercial model, but at a lower price than many of the premium brand domestic cleaners, then the Wilks RX550i is definitely worth a look.The quality of the wands is fine for DIYers. I’ve seen a higher quality gun and slightly better fittings on professional level pressure washers, but they cost a lot more that what you’re paying here. The threads on some of the wands take a bit of starting to connect, but once they’re on they hold nice and tight. The hose length is the next thing to look for and this one really is just a convenience extra. A petrol pressure washer will normally have a longer hose but the electric pressure washers, especially the ones offering high pressure, normally have a slightly longer than average hose length. You also get a couple of brush attachments. One standard brush and a rotary brush which is good for cleaning headlights & alloy wheels. Wilks USA have obviously thought long and hard about how to get around the weight problems their RX550i is having though. The included 8 m hose is fine for getting around a small patio on its own, but the real gem is the extension hose included in the set.
