Cleaning performance score
Each cleaner is tested on a sandstone path. This is a tough test, allowing our tester to rate how well the pressure cleaners clean the path. He uses each cleaning nozzle supplied and times how long it takes to clean with each. The fastest time is used as the basis of the cleaning performance score.
enter value/s in increments of i between 35 and 95
Ease of use score
We rate ease of manoeuvring, taking into account hose length, unit weight and ease of wheeling. We also assess ease of cleaning; checking the length of the handle/lance, vibrations and trigger comfort.
enter value/s in increments of i between 62 and 84
Year tested
Due to a change in test conditions, models are comparable according to year tested. We may retest models from previous tests to bring results in line with current conditions.
Weight (kg)
The measured weight, including the hose, gun, lance and attachments that are stored/attached to the unit.
enter value/s in increments of i between 4 and 28.2
Length of hose (m)
The length of the hose from the pressure cleaner's body to the nozzle.
enter value/s in increments of i between 3.07 and 12
Claimed water consumption (L/hour)
Manufacturers' claimed water consumption. We state the 'working' figures (not the 'maximum' figures) as noted in the manufacturers manuals. These figures can also be referred to as 'rated' or 'nominal'.
enter value/s in increments of i between 246 and 520
Claimed operating pressure (psi)
The manufacturer's claimed water pressure at the nozzle, in psi (if we don't have this figure, we convert the claimed operating pressure in bar to psi). We state the 'working' figures (not the 'maximum' figures) as noted in the manufacturer's manuals. These figures can also be referred to as 'rated' or 'nominal'.
enter value/s in increments of i between 972 and 2000
Claimed operating pressure (bar)
The manufacturer's claimed water pressure at the nozzle, in bar. We don't measure this. We state the 'working' figures (not the 'maximum' figures) as noted in the manufacturer's manuals. These figures can also be referred to as 'rated' or 'nominal'.
enter value/s in increments of i between 67 and 138
Water delivery (L/min)
How much water the pressure cleaner delivers per minute.
enter value/s in increments of i between 4.1 and 8.7
Detergent bottle
Whether the pressure cleaner comes with a detergent bottle. This is used to hold the cleaning detergent which the pressure washer mixes with water before dispersing. When we test performance, we only test using water in order to provide directly comparable results, but a detergent may help for some types of stubborn stains.
On-board tool storage
Whether the pressure washer can store the various tools/accessories
Rotary brush
Useful attachment for paths and patios, sometimes an optional extra.
