We have a 16’ GX, 02’ LX, 12’ Tundra and 4Runner as well... great Lexus/Toyota rides
@@thomasharris5151 Yes, the GX is built on the 4Runner, how similar are they on the inside, and is the Lexus GX more luxurious than the 4Runner?
The Lexus GX isn't just a luxury version of the 4Runner, though. It's actually a Lexus version of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, a vehicle similar to the 4Runner but sold in markets outside of North America... it’s a true luxury V8 suv that competes with and is better than its peers.. plus has better resale value and is a reliability giant..! The newer LX and GX are close but the lx is certainly “better” but I’m not sure if it’s $30k more better... a $70k GX460 (bought ours certified for $30K) is a real value!!!
Love the 4Runner with 400k and runs like new!!!!! The tundra is perfect as well(GX and Tundra have the same engine)... the older LX470 is a luxurious workhouse that will not die and still rides as good as many newer suvs and has all the comforts you’ll need...
Enjoy the GX as we are....
@@jeffostroff hey Jeff. The dewalt 20v power cleaner kit, is live on the home depots website. I just ordered mine today.
Geesh,I can't figure out how to sign up for the drawing.🤔
I've used this sprayer several times now on brick pavers, a wood deck, patio, and a driveway. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX It has performed as expected on all surfaces. For larger areas like the decks and patios, I think I will be looking into a surface cleaner attachment to speed up the job, or at least make it a little easier. Hose and sprayer connections are tool-less, tight, and quick. I used the yellow nozzle on the concrete/brick surfaces, and the pressure was adequate for cleaning those surfaces.I am disappointed that these units are still being shipped with a nozzle storage holder that allows them to vibrate out of the holder way too easily and become lost, but I don't want to knock off a star for that reason. The functional part of the washer works very well, so I would recommend this product.
Awesome vid and I have got to compliment you. You are probably the only dude on the whole of you tube that actually looks at a manual.
I Appreciate that thanks!
I really like the DeWalt Power Cleaner test and it looks like it just might be a great tool and actually save you money if you go through enough car washes--I personally like it! Great video and I am glad I found your channel!
Right on Dauntie
This is a terrific video. I wasn't sure I needed a power washer until now. I'll be buying one of these with the link provided. Thanks Jeff!
We are working on a follow up showing high mode vs low mode.
Thank you so much for the review. Thinking of getting one for my 18 wheeler to freshen it up in between washes. It’s a full time job keeping it shiny and polished
Glad I could help!
Nice honest ( no hard sell) review. Good job. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Finally got the Ryobi 600psi power washer today. Works much better than the DeWalt when using a bucket (no hiccups in flow at 5ft head) AND you can use hot water and other chemicals with it. Did my front deck and vinyl railings with two 4Ah batteries on mid-flow setting and 15 deg nozzle. Worked great. So far, so good!
Can't wait to score one!
@@jeffostroff Today I used the Ryobi to clean my Morton building doors and gutters, and around the house. Unlike the DeWalt, this sucks water like a beast. 5 gall bucket on the ground, me up a ladder with the power washer 11ft up. Never hiccup'd once. Ran on full flow today with the 15 deg nozzle and got through 16Ah of batteries no problem. Even a 9Ah fits in the O-ring sealed battery case. Really pleased! Ryobi hits it out of the park yet again.
Looking forward to your review sometime.
Hi Jeff. Just picked one of these up at the HD in West Kendall. You might have thought about this already but I have done a temporary work around until the community can develop a more elegant solution for the connection. What I have done is left the clear plastic connector on the power unit so I can marry the power head to both the included siphon hose and a garden hose. My work around involves involves the black plastic connector which is included to attach the garden hose. I have taken one of my brass Gilmour male quick connects and screwed it into the included black plastic. To be safe I also used Teflon tape on the brass. I noticed that once the connector was securely screwed into the black plastic, the DeWalt plastic connector "locked" into place and no longer rotated. I believe if the black plastic connector is allowed to swivel you will get leakage.
Another idea is to use a double female connector on the power head and then attach the Gilmour male directly to the power head but then the challenge becomes mating the siphon hose to the Gilmour male. Just some thoughts. Love the unit so far. Cleaning screens and windows, and light wall cleaning work.
I need to try something like that. BTW, I found the pressure when using the siphon is terrible, it's equivalent to using the Dewalt in low pressure mode
I used for my job for less than an hour, not impressed at all. The plastic quick connect snapped right away. I couldn’t finish the job with because of the way they made this thing so you cant hook a hose directly to it. I’m returning it over a plastic quick connect. Cmon
Thank you for this review sir. It make me more confident to buy this product. much appreciated your effort.
Glad I could help
Great video Jeff.
I've been looking for a new gun to replace my best up one
Glad to help Roger!
I picked this up when I first saw it and I will say it does a good job for quick washes and simple cleaning. As for the foam cannon it sucks I used my other foam cannon you can adjust and it does a much better job. I wont say its shaving cream like for that I use my gas pressure washer but I would say it compares at about 50% which works when you just need to do quick car washes without all the hassle of gas one.
Thanks for the feedback on yours as well Pedro
I haven’t taken mine out of the box yet but can tell that you can easily attach your quick connect to the supplied DeWalt hose connector.
Yes it works on the one side but not on the bottom of the sprayer
Great informative video. Thank you for that! Could you post the link to the California Dry Blade please?

iT WA SIN THE VIDEO DESCRIPTION ABOVE
Mid way thru...subscribing! Great thorough review!
Welcome aboard!
Love the video. I’d love to see a regular foam cannon hooked up! Seeing that it has the quick connect on the factory neck.
Yes sometime soon I do plan on ordering a soap cannon to try out and see if it will work with this low level of 550 PS I, most of the soap canons want about 1000 PS I minimum
@@jeffostroff That's the same issue I'm seeing. the non-adjustable tip on the nozzle on the foam attachment looks like it can be removed. it has 2 ears that can be pressed to remove. I'm going to try and remove it and come up with an adapter.
Great Review looks like a Green Works parts , The wand/tips/soap bottle plug in like my GreenWorks washer.
I should review on of them some day also
Found your channel a few weeks ago what a wealth of information! Being late to the party whats the story in using a Lowes coupon in home depot. And wear are you getting the coupons?
Thank you !!

great stuff Jeff thank you
Glad you enjoyed it Iggy1
great review Jeff
thanks Michael!
You know I want to buy this thing so hard.and I don’t want to get it tell I see your review on it. And I am waiting for you since last week. This is how much I trust your reviews Jeff. Thank you sir 👏👏
Glad to hear.
I live in a rural area and have well water which is full of minerals even with a whole house filter so i figured id get a tank and fill it with spot free water from the carwash so i can wash the high country at home. Also gna use it for hvac purposes like cleaning coils, blowers, and mini splits.
Some of the professional car detailers in many people who have boats and are real enthusiasts of car care , will often install those giant filters on the outside of their house next to the hose to filter out all of that stuff
@@jeffostroff Deionizers.. Due to the hard water where i live, there is no way i would wash my vehicles without one.. If you attempt on a dark color, you have insta spots no matter what.. now with one of the deionizers, I can wash and let it dry on its own.. no spots.. dirinse.com/product/d-i-rinse-pro-100-system/ is like one i have. Highly recommend for pros or the occasional washer if you care anything about the paint.. if not.. then yea, prolly not worth the expense. I even use the water from it for my humidifiers and anything that i need water for.. keeps them nice and clean with no build up on them.
@@kilthro wow pricey filter
@@jeffostroff The resin isn't cheap but it's rated at x gallons on a scale depending on your water hardness PPM... I wash my f150 weekly and use the water for the entire process not just rinsing among other things and one take of resin lasts me about a year.. so if you arent using it weekly or for big jobs, you can get 1.5 yrs + easily if your water isn't off the charts on hardness. min is ~250 PPM and that's mid of the scale ... IF your PPM is lower of course the resin lasts a lot longer.. I dont mind paying the price since it minimizes swirls, spots, and speeds up the process overall. :-)
We've had that out in long island NY home depot for about a month now but i have the 3800psi gas one that works incredibly well
Yes, that will plow through anything.
Great review bro!!
Glad you liked it Mike!
Great review! Looks like just what I would need to apply a bucket of cleaning solution for my vinyl siding. Question is how high would this reach? I have a 2- story house with a walkout basement and had difficulty in the past trying to wash the top area of the siding and the gutter.
Looks like about 6 feet of good pressure beyond the tip of the nozzle
Have you used it with cleaning solution for house cleaning? Did you use the soap container or mix cleaner and water in a bucket and siphon from that? Thanks
Thanks for the review Jeff! I just dont see that tool holding up. Being someone that has been around car detailing for a while, all those plastic connection points will not last. Maybe if the unit is rarely used, but no way i would waste money on that. I even noticed the holes in the shroud around the battery.. Not a watertight compartment.
Yes probably not up to the rigors of pro work
THANK YOU FOR THE INFO BRO 👌👍🏼
Any time!
Nice one thanks Jeff!
Great video. Is it possible that it wasn’t foaming properly because you added water to the mixture and the soap settled to the bottom?
I was able to fit my 9.0 amp hour battery in there. Haven’t used mine yet though. Also, I believe the 12 amp hour is the same physical dimensions as the 9, so the 12 should fit.
I should try a 12v if I can ever get my hands on one
@@jeffostroff I have one cuz I have the laser level. It won’t go all the way in to any of the 20v tools cuz of the plastic from what I remember. I’ll check tomorrow since I have a job where I’ll probably need my laser level.
That quick disconnect they use looks just like the Quick disconnect on my electric AR power washer.
I've been using my DeWalt Power Cleaner for a week now . . . cleaning the flat roof of my home and my solar panels. Overall, I'm thrilled with how it works, but the door on the battery protective housing is bound to break . . . very weak and flimsy. Really DeWalt???? The soap gun also is poorly made . . . no adjustability and the soap is depleted in less than a minute. I also wish the trigger had a lock to keep the trigger activated. I depleted 3, 9-Ah FlexVolt batteries working up on my roof over the course of a couple of hours. My hand was cramping from continually squeezing the trigger. Other than those issues, I am completely satisfied with the DeWalt Power Cleaner . . . the power is perfect for my needs and run-time is perfectly adequate for most jobs (my roof and solar panels is a big job!)
thanks for the feedback!
Great video, now I just need to know when we will get this in Australia.
Hopefully you won't be waiting too long. We are also working on a follow up video with more testing in high mode
U picked up that dewalt pump sprayer also 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes I did
I know as soon as I buy this they are coming out with the next model! 😄😁
That always happens!
He he...XR Brushless and 650 PSI...I can already see it lol
Try the foam cannon on the end of the 2 feet lance rather than straight onto the gun. I do this on my Worx Hydroshot and I get good foam. The lance helps increase the pressure and reduces the volume of water emptying out the cannon. I can do a Mercedes station wagon with 3 coats of foam with a 1litre cannon.
Yes we have already been filming this over the last few days and we hope to have a video up next week about this a follow up video we used the greenworks soap applicator, not a cannon, more like a soap gun, but shoots great pressure soap suds because it has a quarter inch quick connect that plugs right directly onto the end of the wand. But the bottle that comes with this kit does not plug onto the end of the wand you have to remove the wand and it plugs onto the end of the housing which is ridiculous there's no pressure
What 's your opinion between this, power cleaner and the Worx hydroshot ? Thanks
A little disappointed you didn’t show us the capabilities in high...other than that, your review was excellent..."right up to the moment you got shot."
Was not enough time, I plan to add it in a follow up video maybe next week, where we make a shorter video showing just the testing on high and low
@@jeffostroff I was just looking for a reason to do a TopGun quote...great video!
hahaha same. that could be the reason why the soap didn't worked well
Mine came with a second quick connect for the garden hose. It's like the one that came attached to the siphon hose.
I'm in the middle of coming up with a hack to replace with brass quick connect.
@@jeffostroff come up with anything? Only thing holding me back
Good review of the washer on its “Low” setting, but why though? I would imagine most people would leave the tool in “High”. The foam attachment might have worked a lot better in “high” also. It would have been nice to see a couple fence planks done with the “high” setting. I would never use this tool in “low”. Because of the non-thorough testing this is your first video I’ve seen that was unsatisfactory. It’s as of you made the whole video and forgot their was a high setting.
I got 2 other great videos, one filmed with tests in high setting, and another testing with foam cannons

📺 WATCH: ua-cam.com/video/5XNLNlLjit0/v-deo.html Can DeWalt Power Cleaner Work With High PSI Soap Cannons? Car Wash Tips
I was hoping, being Dewalt, this would be a significant upgrade to my Hydroshot, gpm wise. It's not. At all.. 😔
Thorough review! Glad I watched it instead of just impulse buying. Thanks! 👍👌✌
Doesn't yours do 750 PSI?
Thank you for this video
If you do any more tests with it you should try using a higher soap to water ratio. I got the ryobi with no soap gun in the box and just saw the dewalt in Home Depot yesterday lol can’t believe nobody leaked this product to me
I bought another sup gun to try on this
Watched for couple mins and then spotted it was on low sat grinding my teeth for you to spot it for rest of video, my understanding of how soap guns work it that pressure difference from in front to back of tank creates the vortex that draws up the soap so would like to think it would foam better on high setting as well as every other cleaning feature would be enhanced.
We have wrapped up filming on the other video where it is in high mode on several other tests. This video was getting too long.
Great video. How was battery life?
We will be doing battery life in a follow up video next week
These are great for people like myself that live in the crowded city that don't access to a driveway are water hose and you want to detail your own ride 5 gallons of water is all you need and a quiet street LOL
Still waiting on my Grainger order to process! I guess they got tired of cancelling and just riding it out😃
That whole thing from Grainger was a joke. At least they canceled mine next day and did not leave me hanging
I have well water so the filter is useful for me. My battery door broke the first time I used it, I'm going to put marine grade velcro on it.
Is this 1 Dewalt quieter than the others & how long does chargd hold & how long does battery last before buying a new 1?
You should get about a half hour of continuous use out of it with 6 ah Flexvolt battery. I recorded video yesterday for another upload we are planning with different soap foam applicators, and washed my whole car, with it, applied foam soap with it, and still had 2 battery bars left. It is no louder than Ryobi or Hart
I was wondering if the gun being set on low had anything to do with the suds forming. Just a thought.
We will be shooting more video next week testing these other modes
I'm really interested in this and am curious to know did you ever try sudsing the car on high mode???
Hmmm, now I'm still on the fence on which cordless pressure washer to buy. I had the Ryobi but the first box was missing one of the wand parts. The second one did a good job but the connect parts started leaking after the first week. Ryobi felt flimsy and I've been eyeing DeWalt (even though I gave all Ryobi One+ tools). Now, I'm not entirely sure.
Dewalt has twice the power. I seriously doubt that Ryobi is putting out 300 psi
That my friend was pretty cool thank you so much for the video 🤟🤟🤟🤟💯💯💯💯🇵🇷🇵🇷 that is exactly what I need for my car thanks again.
No problem 👍
Hey Jeff. I have the Worx 20V power cleaner. It’s very similar to the Dewalt and Ryobi. Have you used the Worx? Thanks.
I have Not try to that 1 yet anxious to do another comparison sometime soon between them
I purchased one last week . The low setting is useless in my opinion . The high setting does pretty good would buy it again for light and small jobs . Battery hungry tan thru three 5 Ah batt in about an hour.
Yes, we will do further studies on it next week
Shouldn't leave it in potential freeze temps either as there will always be some water left in it and the internal plastic parts will crack, having watched some other YT teardowns of similar tools
I always spray it until no more water comes out, and when I remove the wand, shake it out, can't be that much water left inside.
If I didn't already have a Greenworks electric model from Lowe's, I might consider a battery model, but I don't think this was hands down a great buy. The soap gun flow is about the same as my Greenworks 1700psi ($99). Both look sad. I would return it if I were you. On another note, I've never seen the inside of a rim that clean before and Pearl White was the best color Lexus ever came out with. I remember that color on the sedans and coupes back in the 90's when Lexus first came out. Can you add the link for the California Squeegee, that thing did the trick!
I did not expect much with any of these soap guns so I'm not really that disappointed especially since I already have a real professional grade soap gone with quick disconnect that I used for washing my cars with anyway . But overall I was happy with the way that it was able to clean up the concrete there and it's a great way to rinse off the car
@@jeffostroff You should also link your professional model, that thing really blasted some foam. I meant to say before thanks for the review! The only good thing about the Dewalt is you have plenty of batteries. It would be nice if a company could create a battery or electric power washer that rivals the specs of a gas powered one. My electric model cleans the pavement well with the turbo tip like you did.. I just wish I could cover more area faster. By the way was that Lennox A/C the Costco special? How has your system been running?
4 pack of Craftsman tape measures ringing up @6.49 at Lowe's in Palm Beach. (Military & Okeechobee) Also, found Kobalt gloves for 2.49. (In M,L, & XL)
Dang my last livestream they only 2 pairs of XL left, no medium
Jeff, didn’t know you did videos on washing cars. Will definitely be checking those out. But why the need to dilute the soap in the bottle, especially to that extent, if the power washer is pushing water through there anyway?
That's the instructions of nearly all concentrated soap gun soap manufacturers. They all specify 2 oz foaming soap to 8 ounces of water in the soap gun reservoir.
@@jeffostroff ah okay. Figured.
@@jeffostroff try out a different soap canister attachment like the one in the video I commented about earlier 👍🏻
@@jeffostroff wait you read the instructions???!!!! 😄👍
@@thetoolmat8632 lol yes I always do for the videos
Where is the link to your car cleanup channel? I just ordered the DW Power Cleaner and battery from Grainger. We will see if the cancel this order?? Thanks for the videos!
The CarBuyingTips.com channel is here: ua-cam.com/users/carbuyingtipscomvideos
My DCPW550P1 arrived yesterday. What do car wash soap do you use for your cars for use with a pressure washer?
My 2 favorite soaps are 🛒 Blackfire Pro Detailers Choice BF-100 Car Wash, 32 oz. amzn.to/39JFZss
🛒 McKee's 37 MK37-800 Xtreme Foam Formula Shampoo: amzn.to/36yIV9l What's cool is both can be mixed in bucket 1-3 ox per 3 gallons water, or mix in your foam gun, 2 oz to 8 oz water. Watch for next week we are showing you some awesome new foam guns that plug onto the end of your Dewalt power cleaner, that are light years better than the piece of garbage that comes with it.
@@jeffostroff Thanks. Looking forward to it.
Dewalt needs to come out with a FLEXVOLT 120 volt MAX power washer like the miter saw.🙏🏽 I don't know if I should buy this for now😫
The Ryobi 100 PSI is a good compromise at $99
16:25 Does your 21" wide attachment that you mentioned fit on this Dewalt Power Cleaner? If so, could yo share what the name of that item attachment is? Thank you
It won't fit, because it is a 4 foot tall surface cleaning unit with handle bars, meant to connect up to the 1/2" pressure hose coming off the big gas powered pressure washers. This Dewalt Power cleaner is a 1/4" quick connect.
Hi Jeff!! Can you do comparison between Worx 725psi vs Dewalt 550 psi pressure washer?
Maybe one day if I ever score the Worx I'll do a comparison video
There's a Worx 725psi like this?
Please review some of the gas pressure washers available at HD. Thanks!
When someone buys me one, I'll do it!
What is the sound level like - loud, droaning, gets tiring, etc.
The volume is not bad it's not really earsplitting but I can see where people who have sensory issues to certain sounds might be bothered by it . This is coming from a guy who doesn't mind the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard LOL so I really have no problem with it
Is it ok as long as it has a 20V battery, no matter how many AH it is? thank you.
whats the best buy between Ryobi EZ clean vs DeWalt Power Cleaner DCPW550B 5 AH 500 PSI
Without a doubt the DeWalt I think is the much better buy and one of the best reasons is that the tip on the end of the DeWalt can be removed in it as a quarter inch connect quick connect and so any adapter or tool or foam cannon that you want to buy to wash your car with all of them will fit on the end of the Walt but they cannot be put on the Ryobi that is a big design oversight on the Ryobi part. Also the dewalts prayer being that it goes as high as 550 even though the pressure is not as great when you siphon it from a hose through a bucket, it is still more powerful than the Ryobi sprayer. However Ryo be is supposed to be coming out with a 600PSI sprayer that I am curious to see how well it is designed and whether or not they changed their minds on it and decided to put the quarter inch quick connect on the end of the wind that's what I am waiting to see.
Hi Jeff, great review! Do you think you could attach a 3rd party soap cannon to this?
I doubt it but will try the Hart/Ryobi version. But if you can find a standard 1/4" fitting bottle, it might just work.
For your vehicle washing/cleaning...Zep-O-Shine...a tad pricey, but it's the same stuff UPS uses for all their trucks...
Hands down THE BEST.
And you used your squeegee to get the water off??? With Zep-O-Shine...there is no water left, it all runs off!
I wish you had used all the different tips, and more use of the low/high speed switch.
I doubt that is true about the water running itself off completely. And especially here in Florida where we have a lot of minerals in the water you really need that agitation to scrape it off so that the minerals are completely removed off of the surface of the paint
@@jeffostroff I had a 1980 Olds Toronado with a completely faded/primer finish...and the water just beaded up...
I'm in FLA too...
I saw your Ryobi and Dewalt reviews. Besides the price, which one do you recommend the most?, in terms of pressure, performance, and battery life.
Without a doubt that DeWalt unit is much better because the Ryobi unit is only 350 PS I and I am very doubtful as to whether it even really puts out that much it seems to me that the Ryobi unit is the equivalent of the dewalt’s low setting. And the wall has that high setting at 500 PS I that gives you much more noticeable pressure. both units totally stink at siphoning water out of the five gallon bucket a lot of times they lose prime trying to do it and also since you're not connected up to the 60 PS I garden hose you lose that tailwind of having that little bit of extra pressure right out of the get go there's no pressure of water coming out of a 5 gallon bucket
My next tool 👍👍
you got that right
Awesome video! We’re you able to fit a female quick connection?
I'll wait for the 60v version
Would love it if this was a 700 PSI.
Nice car I mean nice video I would like to know at wich Home Depot I can buy it they don’t have where I live
Yes, Home Depot, just put it online: 🛒 DeWalt #DCPW550B 550 PSI Power Cleaner Tool Only homedepot.sjv.io/5XGNL
🛒 DeWalt #DCPW550B 550 PSI Power Cleaner KIT, Batt: homedepot.sjv.io/QRXQ3
Hey do you know if the 8amp battery will work for this tool?
I'm surprised you liked the turbo nozzle, in my experience with a few different power washers ( elec. / gas) I usually call it the joke nozzle. For me if I want power I use the most concentrated and then work my way up based on need. They have all ways been the worst for me. I am getting one of the Dewalt sprayers maybe it will be different? Great video
Yes I have found that the Turbo nozzle depending on how close you put it will give a little bit more concentrated energy, whereas those other replaceable tips that you put on there all they do is they fan out the water from 5 degrees, 20 degrees, or 40 degrees for example. So it gives you a wider fan Anna better rinse in the Turbo mode but the Turbo mode in my opinion scrubs better
The "turbo nozzle" is an amazing tool for specific tasks.
Use it vs a standard nozzle for cleaning pavers or cleaning concrete, black and white difference in performance and speed.
How fast does it go through 5 gallons of water? Would it rinse down a whole car?
about 10 minutes to go through the 5 gallons
What's the best pressure washer for $125 or less in your opinion Jeff?
There is none worthwhile below $125. Those 320 PSI units are only good enough to wash cars boats windows, etc.
@@jeffostroff I'm considering the sun Joe spx2598 max from Walmart no kidding. It's $80 special buy comes with patio cleaning attach, soap gun, it's weaker when comes to suds ...2000psi if you get a chance to look online lmk
I ordered it to clean trex planks on balconies..its post construction so they are dirty and dusty.. Do you think this will work
As long as they are not too badly stained it should work ok. Use the hose option not the siphon, it is weak. The hose option gives you 60 PSI more power to start with
Just found your channel looks like your here in south Florida with the rest of us peasants lol
Awesome neighbor!
I don’t recommend blasting your condensing unit with a pressure washer unless it’s on a very low setting . You don’t want to bend or disorientate the very fine fins that are all along the tubing . They play a key roll in helping to expel the heat and subcool the refridge rent . Air must be able to cross over . I only mention this because I can’t tell how many times I’ve come across customers who completely destroy there units by squashing the fins in .
This is a low pressure machine is nothing to worry about it didn't affect them at all
What about this power cleaner vs, Worx Hydroshot wg630e ? Thanks in advance for your reply and advice..
Never used the Worx, I bet they are all in the same class.
I think the tool is perfect for mobile work. Onr wash on paintwork is what I would do. That dirt you collected while drying, not a good idea, you just added scratches.
This is a really good video. Pointed out all the little petty annoyances of Chinese products without bias. In the end, I think I'll pass on this product.
Wait until you see us testing it next week in high mode, it might change your mind
all this time and effort of a nice review video and you forgot the 'high' setting 🤨
No we are saving it for another shorter video that we are making today to show the difference between high a low setting on sidewalks, and on foaming the car for washing, and removing bugs.
@@jeffostroff Maby it is just me but I can't finde the video :)
@@copyrightvideos1 We will be uploading that video next week
@@jeffostroff Thanks, keep up the great work
How long does the battery last?
Just use Chemical Guys Mr. Pink soap in your foam guns. It works great and you can order it from them in large containers of quite often it's available at WallyWorld.
Been using their honeydew
👍Nice video!
Thanks! 👍
Can you hook it up to the regular garden hose?
Yes, that is where you get the water supply from, it connects to the hose with the included black plastic hose adapter.
Have you tried the high mode and if so how much better did it preform?
Will be doing these tests next week
@@jeffostroff sweet really hoping it does better. It didn't do bad. Definitely looking at getting one once they drop for detailing my cars
Great review, however I will not be buying one. Once you use 1000 psi or higher, it’s hard to go with anything less other than standard water-hose.
Yes that is true. I wish they had battery powered 1000 PSI!
Have you compared the worx hydroshot?
Have not bought the worx yet
If you have a walk-in shower, these devices are perfect for keeping them clean. You can draw water from a bucket or use the clean water from the toilet tank (note: not the toilet water that you urinate or poop in. Lol)
Good idea!
Show it on high power
Will shoot another shorter video maybe next week to show high and low and effect ton soap suds, side by side use with Ryobi Hart.

Picking one up in the next day or so...will also be picking up a big roll of Gorilla tape !
I finally wrapped up filming the new video scenes with it
Do you think it’s good for detailing ?
Yes, I used it to hose off my car during car washes.
Did you try the soap test in the high setting.
Yes, we made a follow up video and showed high testing
You can buy a hose end car wash foam sprayer for $20-$40. What does this do they don't?
Hey Jeff cannot find the Silicon water scraper that takes the water off the car , please can you list the product!!!!
California Car Duster 20105 Clear Dry Blade amzn.to/2Nyb3D7
Sorry I have to say you can also get a female to female adapter.
yes I still have more research to do with these
