I did a test of this vs a garden hose. ua-cam.com/video/-PMcW0dn8WE/v-deo.html
Would this be any good for a bicycle cleaning service...so there might be up to 50 washes per week? Thanks
Hank's Small Engine Repair u
Thanks for the demo and comments. I just bought one and am about to try it.
Just used the 40 volt model to wash the family tombstone in remote location...perfect for this application...did the job.
Kenneth Wallace very good idea. Thank you
I have one and like it. I use it to clean of window screens,trims and it has just the right pressure not to damage things.
It is good for camping ⛺ to wash stuff.
We took this to the graveyard and washed off his parents tombstone. And it did a great job in a matter of minutes! It's a really handy little tool to add to any man or woman's tool shed!!! Love it!!!
I like that it cleans without water flying everywhere.
I am a big fan of the Worx range of tools. As someone who likes some bang for their buck,this product review has sold me. I would only be using it for cleaning my mountain bike,cleaning gardening tools,and I think this would be a great tool for people that like camping. I just love the fact you don't need a dedicated water supply,just a bucket and a nearby stream and you can get the job done. Fantastic!
Dummy!
Sucker!
@@7Longoria no need to be an asshat. Don't you have something better to do? If the dude wants to buy one, worry about your own damn life.
Thanks for review! This review helped a lot!
Works really well for mobile detailing for my company.
Was wondering how it would work for this application, wouldnt need to worry so much about stripping off paint, does it work good to apply the presoak cleaner, have you tried the new 2x20 version?
Great Video !!!! and Thank You for your time and consideration for Us.Continued Success !
Thank you! THANK YOU!! I saw what I need to know!
As a truck driver I think this would be great to keep in my side compartment and pull out to clean off my windows from bugs or my rims.
Will this work on fiberglass tub and shower with mineral build up from well water
That's a nice idea👌
It's rubbish lol
Well done.. thanks!
..just ordered 2.. refurbished (eBay).. $39 each. 👍
Looks pretty useful. Good review
It looks like it would be great for cleaning a car. Not enough pressure to hurt paint or seals. I saw it on a infomercial and they have a foam cannon attachment for spraying detergents.
I just want it to wash the salt off my car with the two liter bottle attachment. Any recommendations on that? Arctic air keeps me from having the garden hose ready
I brought the hydro shot perfect for my needs as I don’t have an out door tap
Good review video, thanks... I just might buy me one of those now. Appreciate the time you spent making this video and sharing it.
+Bng210 glad you liked the vid. This is a great tool some people just think it can do more than it was designed for. But for me I love it
Appears to be a good thing as a hose enhancement or when u don’t have access to a hose like when camping but it ain’t a power washer
I guess if I receive one as a gift it would be ok but don't see myself buying one. The only use I see for this is camping, some sites are often so gross when you get there. Or to keep muddy shoes from getting in the r.v..
Nice! I've been looking at these, thinking about buying one.
+Alan Marshall it's worth it
Hank's Small Engine Repair I just ordered one off Amazon
Plan to use mine to spray my apple / pear orchard (eight trees). I have no power or water out there. In the past I ran a regular power washer powered using a small 1000 watt generator and put my solution in 5 gallon buckets and ran a small sump pump to feed the solution to the pressure water. It was quite a bulky contraption. I’m hoping with this I can just have an extra battery and a few 5-gallon buckets of fruit tree spray and knock the job out in no time. This way I can spay more often with soapy water also and kill off all those pesky Japanese beetles that get half of my fruit!
Good idea 👍
Great honest review. Using it for its intended purpose not as a petrol or electric high pressure cleaner. It’s a pressure cleaner that’s portable to do simple cleaning tasks where there may be no power or water tap to draw from.
Ray Longoria you may need to relook and listen to Hanks review before telling people they got ripped off.
Not for heavy duty work but just good enough for normal washes.
Worx a subsidiary or positec tools corporation headquartered in suza China and USA operations controlled in Charlotte north Carolina.
Did you just use detergent .I know on my vinyl siding I used bleach and dawn dish detergent together
Looks like a good toy for the summer pool party
Nice review, very helpful. Thanks!! : ))
I must have some good pressure because my hose looks more powerful than that I think I'll just get a pressure attachment
I want one of these really bad
Bought this and returned it within a week. Very weak pressure with the 20volt. I was hoping for better results. Just being honest.
I have had no experience using this product but from the videos I’ve seen, the 20v model runs a bit stronger with the 5Ah battery.
Just watching this video and seeing how weak it is, def will NOT be buying it.
Thanks for this vid. One question. Do you know if the 40v makes a difference in power or does it just last longer?
Off hand no, ive not had a chance to mess with one yet
Definitely a tool for very specific use. There are definitely times when I would opt for it over my gas or electric washers. It's such a pain to drag out the machine and the water hose. I may have missed it but was that pure water? Does Worx mention using Purple Power type cleaners in the water? Thanks for sharing this one Hank
+Charlie Zellner yea pure water. Not sure if purple power would be a good idea or if it's ok or not. Big thing would be to run pure water thru after your done if you use regular soap. Not sure if you can mix anything else in the water but I'd be worried about the internals gumming up with old soap left in and not ran out.
My worx hydroshot won't draw water from the 20 foot hose they provide. the directions say I need to get the air out of the line first . I followed the directions for that . the machine goes on but no water comes out and I had the machine on for 50 seconds. Any sugestions
I just received it and tested it out but it wouldn't suck the water
I think these Worx pressure washers make great birthday gift for kids between 5 to 12 years old to play with in summer! Almost like advanced boost-up water gun👶
thanx dude nice video, very informative... I'm not wasting my money on this thing unless it's about $50.00
+5065ca if you have other 20v tools from them you can buy just the sprayer and wands but no battery I believe it's around 70. Wait a while and order a refurb unit off their eBay store. That's how I've bought their stuff I've gotten more than half off of what I have bought buying refurbished their tools.
Hank's Small Engine Repair great advice I think I'll do that thanx again
Any idea how far / high this will push water? I'm considering getting one to spray some flowering crab apple trees with fungicide, and later on with a hormone to stop fruit set. I would mix the product in a bucket and put the siphon hose in the bucket. The spray will need to reach the top of the tree - so about 35 feet vertical and about the same horizontal. Neither my hose-end or pump sprayer reach that far.
Definetly not... only good for maybe 5 feet or so
For small jobs like cleaning fans, car rims and tires, bird poop from windows, outdoor chairs if you dont have access to a hose its ok.
Do you still use this ? Is it okay after you have had it a while?
Ever try this to clean some nasty shower in the house? I wonder how good it would clean the grout lines etc.
I’ve done it. I use the water from the upper part of the toilet as the water supply. Worx great to clean the 🚿 shower.
Interesting.
Might want to use deck cleaner first prior to Hydroshot.
I agree but wanted to see how it did on it's own.
Hi, I used my new one today had just enough 5 gal. of water to do my 2017 Sportage. Half way through the handle was getting alittle warm. Called them up and said that happens as long as it doesn't get to hot. Nobody tells you that. :-(
rachael9372 I’ve never had that issue
Thanks for the demo. But I was quite intrigued by it at first now that I saw it in action it not worth investigating in this product. 🤔
It is impressive in it's total lack of performance. Waste of money, if someone does not have a pressure washer, better to use a bucket and sponge, after all that's how we all used to wash our cars.
Donde puedo conseguir repuestos para worx 305.1
Nice review but interested in why didn’t you use the word soap dispenser as it was so filthy? I got a hydro shot just the other day and it came with one, it’s great for cleaning my work van where there is no hose.
I find using snow foam and leaving it for 5 mins or so then blasting it off works incredibly.
My Hydroshot broke after 6 months.! I have only used it 3 times. Lucky Worx have sent me a replacement, but I have to pay for the shipping ($16). Not happy!
I'm thinking this might be good for shooting a couple of gallons of distilled or deionized water on the car after washing with tap water, so spots don't form. ???
Just dry ur car with a decent micro fiber and you wont get water marks save urself some money
I live in an apartment and don't have a water hose hookup. This will be perfect to wash my car drawing water from a 5 gallon bucket. Does this washer have enough power to wash a car with ?
it has more than enough power to wash a car, you may need another battery though just in case
how is it now? did you encounter any problems?
Is that a quick disconnect right behind the spray head?
I believe so
Yes, it has a quick connect , disconnect connection.
Could you compare the usage to a standard Garden Hose ??? So we can see the difference?
In the usage video yes that will be done
Will a more powerful battery give it more PSI?
Don't know but it'll run longer.
Important: Worx Hydroshot emits a high-frequency sound which may cause incontinence. Worx Hydroshot should not be used before 8am. Do not taunt Worx Hydroshot.
Hiya, can anybody tell me if you need an adapter of some sorts to connect to the garden hose? Or is everything needed already in the box?
The orange male connector at the bottom can be unscrewed and then the garden hose can be screwed directly onto the machine.
Ok I'll try that thanks for that!
Krist Novoselic from Nirvana is now doing pressure washer reviews on UA-cam.
Ha you aren’t the only one to have said that I’ve gotten that quite a bit on here. That or officer barbrady from southpark
Great review, no nonsense or foolishness, a straightforward first demonstration with some specs. Next try the that soap accessory on a car and with degreaser on a engine block just to see how much it would take off. Also do you think it would take off caked on grass on under side of a lawnmower deck? Thanks for sharing.
+Job38 Four I haven't tried the mower deck yet and do want to try the soap accessory for sure. I'm not sure it would work that well on caked on grass but fresh cut it should do fine
Has anyone used this to clean cracks in a driveway prior to sealing? I have a 425ft driveway so this could be useful
You’d be better off using a normal power washer for that
How does this do for screen printing would you guys recommend haha not really needing to do the mold on the sides of homes any time soon just enough for Screen printing
Please, does anyone know if this would be good for washing vehicles? Thank you
I’ve used mine for that and it’s worked great
Hank's Garage thank you
Save your money. Get yourself a Nerf Super Soaker or decent hose nozzle. Even the "Hydroshot" TV infomercial superimposes a "cartoonish" much stronger stream.
MediaWatchDawg hh
Koja je cena❤
seems a little pricey when you can get a cheapy pressure washer for a few bux more. but eh, for light jobs.. why not?
+paradoxdesigns it's good for quick jobs where you mainly don't have a dedicated water supply.
Any way to have this connected to the wall to get more than the allotted time on the battery?
+Gotallofthem1 not that I am aware of
I'd like to use this to wash my car, and there aren't too many vidoes of people using it.
Would you know if I can attached a foam cannon to this to foam up a car?
Thanks
+Gotallofthem1 They sell an accessory that soaps an attaches to the wand...check out the website
Yes I did see that; but that attachment appears to be pretty weak compared to others I'v seen. Either way I ordered the unit and it should come in soon, hope it works for my cars washing.
I know they say on there website, that you can't use anything other than water with the unit. I wonder why that is, I don't see how using some soap can mess anything up especially if you clean it after ward by just running some water.
Gotallofthem1 ..I actually like it a lot..I think they don't want you to use anything solvent based because what it might do internally..I saw a demo on qvc where the lady said that a little soap in the bucket of water was fine..just be sure to run clean water through it..the idea that you can draw water from any source makes it unique..just don't expect pressure washer power..I even made a hack that you can screw a 64 oz soda bottle to it with a piece of plastic tubing to draw the water out
nice that a pressure washer
+Ed James yup
Subscribe to my channel please
I BOUGHT THE POWER WASH TURBO ATTACHMENT TO MAKE IT MORE POWERFULL AND THE WINDOW WASHER WIPER FOR GLASS PANES NOW IM SET ON MY TROLLEY TO GO ANYWHERE WITH A WATER BUTT FULL OF WATER
Why are you yelling
It's funny in the commercial it has it stripping concrete clean. Nope that ain't gonna happen!
Don't bother - the battery only lasted about 30 minutes. I'm very disappointed It took almost 3 weeks for it to arrive.
My garden hose has more pressure than that!!!!
Stop lying because that's the point of this product lol
Nimrod detected...
Yeah right, Ur installation must be fancy pressurized 😏
Just bought one,power is weak
Can you spray chemical through it like bleach?
I wouldnt, you are atomizing the liquids by doing so, might not be the best thing to breath and easier to get in your eyes
20v battery lasted about 20 minutes for me when I was cleaning the awnings of my house. NOT worth 120 bucks
Pretty weak power too
@@xavierortiz2690 were you expecting a pressure washer? And did you remember about the high/low switch?
I've never seen a pressure washer that won't remove paint lol
+JR The Hyundai tuner 2000 yea it's pretty nice
Even this *will* remove paint so beware!
you should of treat the dirt with some chemical before hand you could get a lot of better result
+bekir kurt yes I agree. Under normal circumstance I would have run a degreaser over it first. However I wanted to see what the limits of this tool were so I opted to not "cheat"
nice review but people dont know what to expect from products like this it has never been made for to replace power wash i am definitely getting one this week and let me tell you the purpose i am getting it for i am gonna use it to detail my car i live in an apartment i dont have a reach to free flowing water i can wash my car using waterless wash but cleaning wheels my biggest problem when i try to detail my car this is gonna be perfect solution for that give me another example for spraying some kind of solution or distilled water out of a bucket faster or stronger than this yes it may not have the power of a power washer but there is nothing better or stronger when it comes to applying some kind of solution out of a bucket thanks for the review brother
Not very good. Poor pressure. It's back in its box and being returned to Home Depot.
What can I do ?
Luis Argumedo You can start with learning language structure.
Ya think it would work on freshwater algae
Looks weak, i guess the only selling point is garden hose type pressure from standing water
don't think it has enough power to power wash siding
Dmitri Chergibayev Well first of all you need a power washer to power wash siding LOL. Nobody ever called this a power washer. Except for people who don't pay attention to the commercials for this. It is called a "portable power cleaner". See the battery? It says 20 volts. A lot less than a 120 volt powered washer. And way less power than a gas powered washer.
It's probably good enough to clean the bird shit off your car, maybe bug impacts.
Good enough to soft wash with though
@@cydonianman ..ba hahaha!!!!!
good video but convinced me not to buy one
Don't waste your $$ on this junk~!
@@Omisslewis1976 Hey! I just throwed away50 with my 4July's coupon on this 💩!
😭😭😭
@@jairocuriele5864 DAMN!!! Sorry dude see if you can return it! I returned mine! It is not marketed a fancy HOSE attachment it is marketed as a power/pressure washer which is neither! I have more pressure in my hose!
Price?
Google
Just got one , battery doesn't even last an hour
Rand Sp3c of course not.. no one with common sense would expect it to
Got one of timer Does not work for me .Not happy with it .
Jenny Mcbride well if it doesn't work for you I am sure you are still within the return period.
This would be perfect for an apt that has no water to wash a car I'm moving into a apartment that has no where to attach a water hoes so this makes life simpler
Jonathan Miller it'll work just fine for that job as well. May want to get another battery though. They are cheap on eBay
Not worth the money be better off just getting a pressure washer. You can get an electric pressure washer for around a hundred bucks.
The whole point is its portability. If I go mountain biking in the middle of nowhere and the bike is covered in shit at the end of a ride, I can use this to clean it before putting it back in the car!
IMO, this is a waste of money. I do like their battery powered edger, though.
I bet on its softest power you could use it as a camp shower!!!!
Or at a wet T-shirt contest! 👍
Yup....worx for me hahaha!!
Buy another battery....charge time is 5 hours.
You did not use the soap bottle
Nolan Bronsard it wasn't included with mine
Hank's Small Engine Repair I bought the bottle I think you show it as option
It’s not a power washer. It does what it does brilliantly. You have no taped water source and want clean something down..like a bike after a ride it’s perfect..want to clean your drive..then get a proper power washer...great bit of kit for what it is..
Wow i thought it was a pressure washer Smdh nvm , i guess I’ll get a little pressure washer then
anyone ever had the idea turning one of these into a flamethrower, buy getting the 2 liter attachment and filling it with gasoline?
ha probably not the best or safest idea, the whole unit is plastic and would likely melt it
true, but that's why it gets lit about 6 inches away from the nozzle
B1 Battle Droid the gas itself will melt it. Gas will eat through some plastic. If you did this, it is possible the whole thing plus you will go up in flames 🔥. I would recommend strongly to not do it. Some years ago myself and some friends used expensive battery operated squirt guns as a flamethrower. The plastic held up pretty good with the gas, we thought! 10 minutes in having a blast, my friends hands feet and clothes were on fire. He got burned very bad.
If you don't have anything better to do with $119 than use it for a flamethrower, how about giving it to me, I could use it.
seen a super soaker turned into a flame thrower. no melting. after a couple hours the fuels did cause some leaking where components were glued together. 20-30 foot flame
Basically how long till some kid realises this can be put in a can of propellant and becomes a flame thrower.
Go back and read B1 Battle Droid's comment.
Your garage door is well dirty I wish my girlfriend was that dirty
Just have her roll around in the dirt outside 👍
I’ll properly will find her like that tonight she’s of out with her work mates last time she was that drunk she was trying to crawl into her shoes
LOL
@@hanksgarage_ Man, you know everything! :-)
It would be more time consuming just filling that water.
Bought one of these and wasn't impressed. You need a bucket of water to use this, and it has a float that sucks up the water through the hose. Pressure isn't very good and would be okay for light duty. Maybe washing a car or some patio blocks. As far as washing siding, this is not adequate. It will take off the top layer, but not powerful enough to remove the bottom layer that is clinging. Also, it's only as good as how much water you have in your bucket, then you need to fill it up again.
I think ive shit my pants with more pressure
happens to the best of us
Can I shower with it? I’m very filthy.
May as well be rubbing your mickey off whatever you're cleaning
As long as you’re not within 1000 feet of a school 👍
@@hanksgarage_ HAHAHAHA!
Вообще ниочем
