I’ve used a couple of pressure washers over the years, so I thought I knew all there was to know about pressure washers when I decided to buy a new one for my dad (after his old washer stopped working) . Well, I went online and started my research. Actually, I just wanted to buy a reasonable pressure washer that would help the old man keep his patio and walls clean because he is very strict about cleaning, but I ended up looking online. Ultimately, I settled on the Bosch Aquatak 115 plus pressure washer, and while it wasn’t exactly cheap, I was pleased with its function and still am (in fact, I sometimes “borrow” it without the man’s consent!). Below are the reasons why you should consider getting one too.
Highly efficient cleaning action
The Bosch aquatak offers good nozzle performance for a couple of reasons. Let’s talk about the engine first. It comes equipped with the powerful Bosch series motor (1700 watts) and this is the juice that powers the extremely efficient assembly. The motor makes the machine ideal for cleaning cars, walls, terraces, boat decks, bicycles, etc. Second, the aquatak’s nozzle provides optimal water pressure release and regulation for even the most difficult tasks, thanks to the various lances.
The vario jet fan power lance allows you to adjust the nozzle from a wide fan mode to form a jet stream. Trust me, this really is helpful. The flexi jet power lance also allows you to clean places that are normally difficult to reach and clean. Finally, the Bosch alloy pump provides the robust water pressure (115 bar and also a maximum flow rate of 380 liters per hour) necessary for high performance. Additionally, there is a pressure adjustment knob that allows you to adjust between low pressure (for gentle cleaning) and high pressure (for rigorous cleaning).
easy maneuverability
Bosch definitely had customer needs in mind when designing the aquatak. This is clearly evident in the upright light’s design and ease of use. The aquatak weighs only 7.2 kg and yet is equipped with 2 strong wheels. These features mean you don’t have to stress when using the aquatak because it’s portable and very easy to handle. My father is an elderly man and I was interested in getting a pressure washer that would not put more pressure on him and so far there have been no complaints from him. In addition to all this, the aquatak also has a couple of hooks to hang the hose and other accessories, making it more convenient for use and storage.
Other features
In addition to the features described above, the Bosch aquatak 115 pressure washer also has other features that make it a good choice. These include:
· Automatic stop system:This ensures that the pump and motor last longer, as well as reducing water waste (very economical if your water bill is high). Environmentalists will love this!
· Integrated detergent tank:This is another feature that contributes to the efficiency of the aquatak. However, the detergent tank only dispenses at low pressure, a smart one if you ask me.
· Extra brush and lance:The aquatak also comes with an extra brush to clean hard to reach places. The flexi jet lance and the rotary lance are also useful in this regard, as they make it easier to clean even the most stubborn dirt.
drawbacks
I noticed a couple of drawbacks. First of all, don’t lean on the brush attachment because the stem is thin and weak. You will not have any problem if you avoid leaning on it. My dad leaned on it and the attachment broke so now he can’t leave the brush in the pressure washer. However, this does not prevent its operation. Also, the rotary lance is quite powerful, so don’t use it on painted surfaces.
conclusion
In light of the points discussed above, I will recommend Bosch aquatak 115 pressure washers to anyone who needs a powerful washer that will get the job done quickly and efficiently. You will not regret buying this machine because you will get good value for your money.
