18 most popular high pressure washers

It is necessary to note a number of shortcomings. The main thing is that the basic package includes only a short 8-meter hose, a long hose, additional nozzles and a coil for winding are purchased separately as accessories. In addition, due to the crank drive of the pump, the level of vibration and noise in this model is quite high.

The motor power supply is a single-phase, 3.2-kilowatt motor that drives a brass axial pump, protected from overheating and running “dry” by automation. Along the length of the hose, the Kranzle sink becomes the record holder - its reel holds as much as 15 meters of flexible hose. It should be especially noted that the supply of detergent is carried out at the pump inlet, and not by the high-pressure injector - thanks to this, washing becomes simpler in design and more economical.

However, there are a number of points that will make the Stihl pressure washer not the best choice.First of all, it is a way of storing the hose - although it is 12 meters long, it must be disconnected from the pistol and the feed nozzle for winding onto the coil, which is not so convenient. It can be an unpleasant surprise and half the guarantee - only 12 months versus 2 years for Karcher.

The most expensive device in the ranking of the best household mini-sinks, but its characteristics match the price: its pump is capable of developing 150 bar of pressure and pumping up to 500 liters of water per hour. At the same time, it is equipped with a flexible 9-meter hose with the possibility of fast winding onto the coil and an ergonomic gun.

On the other hand, for household mini-washing it would be desirable to operate without connecting to a pressure water supply network, with which the RE 128 Plus has obvious problems - if necessary, water intake from the container is the instruction manual directly prescribes the use of an external booster pump. The standard external foam generator is ineffective - emulsion rather than foam is sprayed.

A good household appliance with the possibility of water intake from the tank without a strong loss of performance. The maximum pressure is 140 bar at 450 l / h, the power of the electric motor is 2.1 kW.

The car wash has a convenient retractable handle for transportation and quite a decent hose length - 8 meters, for storage of which a reel is provided. In addition, the kit includes curved nozzles, allowing you to conveniently wash the wheel arches and the bottom of the car. The main disadvantages are a rigid standard hose (plastic casing), high noise level during operation.

Wash is not easy, but here is a plus: the weight hints at the fact that the manufacturer did not save on metal, but for equipment working with high pressures, this is important. The maximum pressure here is not as high as that of competitors - 120 bar, but you need to consider that washing can work on it for a long time without triggering the protection. The advantages include and automatic shutdown, not forcing the three-piston pump to idle, wasting resource in vain. The activation itself takes place gently due to the operation of the Easy Start system.

The hull design is convenient for frequent movements - reliable wheels. High shipping handle. The 6 meter hose can be wound onto a reel.

What is not very convenient is the lack of a built-in detergent tank: it is poured into the tank on the froth nozzle itself, so it’s too hard to work when fully filled. But it also foam well.

Apart from this, the equipment of the car wash is not bad - there is a mud brush, two slotted nozzles on the gun. The length of the hose is enough - it is 8 meters.

A productive pump for little money with good build quality is what will clearly serve as a good recommendation for a new family of Swedish mini-sinks. At the budget price, we get a device with a convenient body and a drum for a hose (seven meters in addition), and we can wash up to 460 liters through ourselves in an hour, which is just an excellent result compared to competitors for the same money. The maximum pressure is 125 bar, the operating pressure is 95. And this is with a motor power of 1.5 kW — what is not an option for the summer resident? It washes efficiently, the electrical grid does not load ... However, it will not be very convenient to take the car wash to the dacha - it, like all models with an upper drum, is too large in height.

It is worth noting that the maximum height of the samovsos is limited to one and a half meters, so even in the deep well to throw the suction hose is not worth it.It is better to provide a normal barrel, especially since it is not difficult to drain 100-200 liters of water for the PW 125.

One of the lightest models that hit the Hitachi mini-car wash weighs only 8 kilograms, and this is taking into account the 10-meter standard hose. Alas, ease of use here has a reverse side in the form of a low resource - it is quite problematic to fit a multi-piston axial pump in a brass body and a water-cooled electric motor into such a weight-and-weight framework, so silumin and a simple motor are clearly used here.

Anyway, the AW130 pump can develop pressure up to 130 bar, although you should be careful with it - many owners of mini-sinks note the tendency of the silumin casting to crack under the influence of water hammer. The kit includes not only a crevice nozzle, but also a mud brush.

This high pressure washer has deservedly gained popularity - it has a fairly high price-quality ratio, decent performance, and it’s convenient to handle.

The pump traditionally for this class is made of aluminum alloy, capable of pumping up to 375 liters of water per hour. The maximum pressure is 165 bar, although, as with all aluminum pumps, they should not get carried away and work on a more benign mode (90-110 bar). The motor is 1.9 kW, which, in principle, will be a balanced solution for household washing: with less power, the motor will be overloaded, with more power requirements for the power supply network will increase, which in the country, for example, may become critical.

Conveniently, the manufacturer has provided a drum for coiling - most of the time household washing will be carried out in the closet, and so it is more convenient to store it than with a multiple-bent hose on the side hook. The hose itself, however, is a bit short, but if you wish, you can pick up an analog (mount similar to the "Champion").

Of the minuses, it is worth pointing out the low efficiency of the regular foam generator - of course, it is ... but this can be the end of its description. It is worth considering an option with an external foam generator, if it is often required.

The Danish company Nilfisk, although founded more than a century ago (and, by the way, was the first to launch an electric vacuum cleaner into the European market back in 1910!), Is still not as well known in our area as its neighbors in Scandinavia. However, the production of amateur series is still located in China, so it’s worth talking about “European quality” with a certain degree of skepticism - of course, the status of the brand obliges toughening quality control, but it’s likely that a more affordable “pure Chinese” will last You are no worse. By design, this model, we note, is very similar to the “Calm” RE 98, the differences are in the presence of a drum for winding the hose and increased pump efficiency: here it is capable of delivering up to 130 bar, pumping up to 440 liters of water per hour.

The foam generator tank is not in the case, but is fixed on the nozzle, but now it is not very effective. Many amateur models are “sick” of this, but from a company with a decent history I want something more. In transportation, the Nilfisk-ALTO Compact C 130.1-6 X-TRA car wash is not very convenient - it affects the height and decent weight, it will fit into the trunk except for an SUV or a minibus. Taking into account the weight, you should pay more attention to the wheels - they are plastic, you should not blithely roll the car wash on the pavement or even the stairs.

Gun - composite, can be extended to a decent size. Interestingly, there are two nozzles for it, in addition to foam, one with a smooth pressure adjustment serves for the final cleaning, while the second one (Powerspeed) has only one mode of operation: “blow all the money”. The second pleasant nuance: if you look closely at the handle for transportation, you can find a needle that can be pulled out of it to clean the nozzle, which is convenient to hold the plastic retainer. And always on hand, and losing is difficult: a great solution.

According to the owners, this household sink complies with the manufacturer’s specifications. With its help, it is possible to wash the car and cope with the territory cleaning work. The device creates good pressure at the exit, when using the main water supply system. The fence from the autonomous tank is valid, but the quality of the jet, in this case, is lower. The standard washing nozzle is equipped with a water spray adjustment system, which allows it to be used for different types of work. General complaints of users boil down to complaints about the obviously insufficient length of the five-meter pressure hose, the futility of the foam nozzle and the unsuccessful design of the hose storage drum (you have to disconnect the gun every time).

Like many models of this price segment, Denzel car wash diligently mimics the more expensive and well-known brands. Well, since we are talking about the best mini-sinks, then what can we “mow”, besides Karcher?

However, this business is already familiar, and we will not quibble. According to the characteristics, the car wash, presented under the own brand of World of Instrument LLC, is not bad - a 1.8 kW motor inspires confidence in the declared maximum pressure of 150 bar. Work from a water supply system and samovsosy is possible. The pump, of course, is made of aluminum alloy, but this is not bad for a budget model - it could be plastic.

The delivery set does not strike with an abundance of accessories - as a matter of fact, apart from a hose with a single nozzle, there is nothing in it. It is supposed to wind the hose on the side of the bracket, there is no drum. However, for the lower price segment this is normal, here it is worth more to be interested in workmanship than in the abundance of accessories.

Compact model capable of self-pumping.It is very difficult to use this mini-wash to remove the strong contaminants due to the low working pressure — only 70 bar, while the regular foam generator is practically unsuitable for contactless washing — the device needs to select better nozzles.

On the other hand, with such a low price, not plastic, but at least a silumin pump is used here, which promises a more or less acceptable product life. The main advantage (in addition to the low price) is a very small size, making it easy to transport the Huter W105-G in the trunk of a car.

The machine is very middle class. Drive 1.7 kW allows a metal pump with ceramic pistons to produce an outlet pressure of not more than 11 MPa. People who have purchased this unit and have encountered any problems after the expiration of the warranty period, complain about the lack of spare parts. If it were not for this problem, it would be possible to give a higher estimate to the aggregate. Its completeness includes four nozzles - they have a special compartment. There is a "thermal" to protect the engine from overheating. For storage of a reinforced high pressure hose on the body there is a coil with a convenient handle for winding.
