Item ( Bosch Pressure Washer) arrived safely and was assembled in no time. Tried it out on a patch of blockwork and hey presto – it works far better than my old one.
only for dermastic use ALL Pressure Washer Motors are BUILT to A RUN TIME, exceed and BURN OUT OVER HEAT … NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE as CHEAP Domestic short run use 🙂 .. Commercial 4,000 upwards Go ON ONON ALL DAY 🙂
Borrowed this from a neighbour and felt I needed to get my own Very pleased with it did a great job on patio and driveway yet to try cleaning car with it I’m sure will do a great job
All looks robust and pretty well made. Haven’t used it in anger yet, so time will tell, but by registering with Bosch, gained an additional year warranty. The registration online was the most difficult part, a Bosch now use a OneKey service, together with Siemens, Neff etc, and it wasn’t at all clear how to register at first.
TOP TIP, the washer comes with a clear plastic water filter which mounts on the front of the machine at the water inlet via a screw thread to the reverse, and with a ‘Hozelok’ type O ring connecter to the front.
It doesn’t look especially robust if the washer were to topple over, so the easy solution is to go back to the tap where the hose connects, remove the existing connecter – if it is of the ‘Hozelock’ type – and screw on the filter at that point where it is less likely to be damaged. Then screw on the former connector direct to the water inlet in the front of machine and you’re done.
Not too big and bulky, easy to store away when not in use. Would recommend this fantastic pressure washer for cleaning the decking, windows, car & patio tiles. Also had a separate soap dispenser compartment.
Comment:
On Initial assembly, the lift/push/pull handle auto clicks into position but moves moves between one inch backwards/forwards when pushing/pulling the complete unit.
This should be locked solid making a one piece unit as only 2 wires/stops lock this item up and this movement may increase when the unit is pushed around when pressure washing.
is this movement standard and covered by the 3 year warranty
Thanks
MANAGED TO SET IT UP WITH OUT FOLLOWING THE PICTURE INSTRUCTIONS LOL UNTIL I GOT STUCK
I AM IMPRESSED WITH IT SO FAR , just want to pressure wash EVERYTHING
Only one little grumble is the hose is not very solid looks like it might not last hope I am wrong.
I liked this jet washer a lot . It is very powerful . Somebody spilled a lot of paint in the patio and it dried and became very hard to come off but the jet washer took it off well as if it was exist . Thank you to Bocsh jet washe
So far I love it but time will tell.
Decent job by Bosch, recommended.
Simple to use and very powerful
From opening the box to using within 5 minutes.
Easy to understand instructions in plain English.
My best mate has now ordered the same one.
It’s a great power washer used it on car,walls of house and patio
Used this for car washing and found it easy to use and great pressure adjustment. Shampoo bottle worked great and covered the car in soap easily. Better than my old Karcher k4 with easier to fit attachments. Nice big wheels and stands upright while using.
It came on time and it met my expectation. Water pressure was good .
Never would have considered Bosch for a power washer always bought karcher. Amazing lightweight and so easy to assemble and use.
Definitely recommend
Light weight and easy to use. Still has power though and after two previous yellow ones breaking quite quickly we went for the cheaper option. Fairly pleased and brought the accessory to make other accessories compatible with this Bosch so that saves replacing the T racers etc. Will see how long this one lasts.
After owning several karcher washers I I thought I’d try a different manufacturer. What a difference, great little washer, loads of pressure, great lance with 3 built in nozzles that you rotate to select what you need. Bonus, it comes with foam attachment for washing your car.
Versatile for cleaning patios, decking, footpaths, car, mountain bike etc.
Light easy to use, good value for money and extended warranty if you register the washer, recommend.
Easy set up. Cheap plastic feel. Hopefully will be more strong and durable than I feel now it will be lol.
Excellent pressure washer. Easy to assemble and use. Worth spending more money to get better wash than entry level 100/110/120 or Karcher K2/K3.
I. It a lot of Bosch products. This is good quality. Not issues but n build, assembly or quality. But compared to marcher, I think marcher wins. It’s because Bosch have tried to clever with the lance and put a rotating head instead of a change of lance like marcher do. Yes it’s simpler and less hassle- but it doesn’t feel as secure or robust as having an one price lance. That’s my only conce
The Bosch pressure washer is excellent for it’s price, easy to use, great not having to change tips depending upon what you are cleaning and lightweight. The only negative would be the size of the detergent bottle which is quite small.
So bit of a faff to get it all together but once you do it’s pretty simple to use and has a couple of settings for and attachments. Currently use it to clean the cars and the patio, both it does very well so would recommend
Deffo holds its own against the more expensive ones on the marke
I added on a half inch Hozelok 15m hose onto my order with garden tap adapters to boot and one of these fits snugly onto Bosch inlet which was great as Bosch don’t seem to supply that adapter with the 125 now.
Then for the outlet I added on a 6m Bosch hose extension. Basically car washing has become an absolute joy now and I just use the fan jet (not rhe rotating jet and deffo not the pencil jet) nozzle setting for a good solid car washing experience.
Folds away nice and compact and is light enough to pick up and take where want it. but the nozzle is really stiff to turn if you want change the jet pattern.
This little machine lifted 20 YEARS of mildew, grime and sun baked dirt off these sandstone and granite slabs. Blasted it off without any issues.
Did not expect this product to be quite as good as it is. Extremely lightweight, to the point I was worried it would be a poor performer but was assembled and working in minutes and the pictures speak for themselves.
Definitely recommend, especially for the current price.
I’ve had Karchers all my life but this model is the same bar pressure as the K4 and almost 100 cheaper, so I thought I’d give it a good go and I’m VERY IMPRESSED with it, mainly because the wand you get with it has 3 modes on it, rather than having to change the one over with the Karcher model.
So with that, it’s much lighter, still does the same heavy duty work and is quieter too.
Bosch are onto a winner here!!
As expected, wasn’t any better than the Karcher lower powered machine.
Instructions were non existent, had to go on youtube to see how the brush fitted.
Would recommend as it was a good price.
Before and after photos of a bit of my patio.
Quite hard work, but really good result. Once dry I’ll brush off the loose stuff and see whether it needs going over or not, but I think it doesn’t.
Very adequate power for the job, or windows, or garden furniture, or the car. Fails to remove ivy root marks off painted bricks. The motor does not overheat; glad I got this rather than a less powerful one.
I needed a shower and hair wash after using it – the crud gets everywhere.
The reduced price was good. This one is more powerful than my old one and cleans well
Easy to use and works as should. Used it quite a bit in last 2 months I’ve owned and seems good quality product. Only issue I have is that the holder for hose could have been made better and is quite easy to mildly deform the hose as the hose is longer than expected(did like that) . Also the connector between hose and machine is awful have a hard time unplugging the hose after use and plastic clip cover where you unplug has come off not a big thing but annoying. Still would buy again as none of the issues really effect use but personally find it better to keep the hose out of holder.
Can’t give it 5 stars as not perfect but if could would value the washer at 4,5stars
Got this pressure washer for my hubby he is well pleased with it thanks.
Good value compact lightweight. Does the job well and the three way nozzle is a winner!
I’m very impressed with this pressure washer. The 135 bar pressure is ideal for cleaning a large car. Works very well with my PA foam lance. A good upgrade on my older AQT. Be sure to release the pressure in the machine after use to avoid damage.
Best power wash i have owned…cleaned drive and patios in less than half time of previous washers..jet is wider clears bigger area spot o
So far so good. The product is compact to stow away, and practical to use. Provides good pressure for cleaning my car and front garden paving. Confident with the product brand and pleased with the purchase.

Cleared a patio very easily. Used the soap dispenser to wash a car and bike, good results.
A bit pricey but easy to set up and that bit of extra pressure makes all the difference
1) Very powerful and tears through concrete dirt
2) Lightweight
3) Mid Budget range

1) I really wanted this mainly to snow foam the car. This is where i would only give this a 2 star….However don’t despair, there are accessories that you can buy to get this back to a 5 star product. The Wash bottle that comes with the jetwash is useless if you want really good snow foam. It is Way too small (as per previous reviews), and does not allow you to alter the snow to water ratio, so the foam is really watery. Because the bottle is so small, is gets used up within a minute, and just about covers a small car. I bought 2 additional accessories (from Amazon) to remedy this. 1) a Decent 1 litre foam lance bottle with a 1/4 inch quick release nozzle and adjustable water ratio. But you also have to buy 2) An adaptor to connect the bottle to the jetwasher that connects to the quick release nozzle and jet washer. Having these now results in great thick snow foam
2) There are a lot of plastic parts as opposed to decent brass fittings, and i can see these easily breaking at some point.
I would recommend this jet washer, but be aware of the really poor washer bottle that you’ll have to replace with the above if you want really thick snow foam.
Not the cheapest but does the job. However a bit of a fiddle winding the pressure hose for storage.
Great for cleaning small drive and also for cleaning car once you get use to the bottle with cleane
Easy set up. Good powerful keys for patios, bricks and vehicles. Excellent purchase.
Pretty powerful jetwash, I’ve used to wash my car and have cleaned so paving too. Works really well
A very good pressure washer indeed does the patio a treat!! Great purchase
I have a on going problem with the 3 heads that you can use to alter the pressure on the nozzle from new, allowing me to only one have a side jet that operated. I emailed the service department and so far have had no luck in getting a new part to replace it, even giving the the replacement number. I have supplied with all the details they requested including a photo of the nozzle and have had no response from them since. Even allowing for the pandemic this is a very poor response’s and is still on going with me now having to write again, not being able to use the main jet for my large patio.
Over the previous few years I’ve borrowed other well known makes from friends, which struggled with some of my surfaces. So this year I decided to buy the Bosch, with a little more power. It’s great. It could not be easier to do the minor bit of assembling (basically lifting the handle and push fitting the hose and attachments.) All of its operation feels positive and strong. The multi pattern jet wand is simple to use too, just a rotation with good click into the new selection. The car washer liquid attachment is easy to use too – but it does get through the liquid quickly, water it down a bit first. I’ve used it to clean my mountain bike and my wife has used it to clean a lot of patio.
I’ve bought it only for my car washing. I had wanted the acquatak 120 but few buyers said it wasn’t that powerful enough so I went for this acquatak 125, and oh my gosh!! It is far too powerful for what I’ve intended it for.
I’ve overlooked it initially because it’s all plastic, foldable and very light yet appeared robust too. Look, this is a quality AGGRESSIVE MASTER BLASTER for car cleaning! I live upstairs and it’s so light to lift. It is kept over a shelf.
Knowing how to use it for car cleaning is paramount to avoid damaging car paint work. You could watch YouTube on how to use any pressure washer on car if you’re a novice like myself.
I think those with small outdoor surfaces that need cleaning would not regret. With that mentioned, if you’ve got an extremely large outdoor surface to clean than please go for a more expensive one that comes with so many cleaning accessories to handle such demand. While this is very powerful within its class, it comes only with the basic (a water cable, soap dispenser, gun, adjustable nozzle to select spraying pressure and a lance – that’s it).
I do recommend this one. Thanks
Powerful machine really happy with the product easy to use
Great bit of kit used it to clean the moss off the drive used it on both my car and motorcycle. I am very pleased with my purchase.
I’m pleased with this purchase it will do everything I need for home and car cleaning
Easy to assemble but no info in manual on how to change nozzle settings.Detergent bottle runs out very quickly.Powerfull washer though
Not quite as powerful as I would have liked but still pretty good.
It does what it says on the tin. It’s cleaned two cars, the patio, front path and driveway so far. (had to buy the brush separately). Everything else worked well.
Used straight away to clean concrete that was black and slippery .it did a great job.only worry is that all the parts are durable as they are plastic seems ok
Had Karcher products previously and both lasted only a short time – this is cheaper to buy and does the same job!
Like the car shampoo bottle. Easy to operate and works well. Very pleased with it. Tidied away well
It would be easier and quicker if the head was a little bigger covering wider area.
Excellent product, far superior to my last one (Nilfisk), should be expected as Bosch was more expensive. The extra power mm akes all pressure washing tasks quicker and easier.
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Very happy with this pressure washer, have had less powerfull units in the past but it is worth spending a little more and getting more pressure.
So easy to set up and use , cleaned a concrete yard that had thick black staining and moss growth from years of neglect with ease . Very pleasing resul
It was very easy to assemble and I used it in minutes. I have used it to clean my drive and car and I fully recommend it. I have no faults it does what I want it to do no problem.

Very impressed with the overall build quality and it certainly is high pressure!
Very efficient, clear instructions. I don’t have another washer to compare it to, but this one does everything you need. Decently long electric cable too.
Easy to use, good product. Not the easiest to manoeuvre
I bought this in the hope that it would strip the stain off my decking before re staining and it did a marvellous job. Used it on all the settings and very impressed. I would recommend anytime.
First time used Pressure Washer and it is a great buy. Always relied on Bosch products and they haven’t let me down again.
Really easy to assemble, light weight and very effective… couldn’t believe how powerful this kit is. Would definitely recommend
Using it to clear algae of footpath and patio area. Does the job. My only reservation is if you find working around the level of your feet, the hose pipe and pressure “pistol” Pipelines are awkward to attach. Good value.
Pros
Good enough for most domestic work
Lightweight and compact
Easy to use
Cons
Pipe to gun easy to kink
Clips for locking in the pipe are fiddly
Folding the pipe from unit to gun not easy
Everything has its own storage, easy to use, good sturdy build.
This was a good price and especially liked the fact that you do not have to attach to a tap but could use water from another source. Hower, spray nozzle is a bit fiddly and does not always work properly.
So far I’ve nothing but praise for this unit, it’s s lot better then our previous presher washer by karcher although to be fair to them it was fairly old.
Easy to use, packs away small and great multi use attachment means no changing lances all the time.
Does a good job cleaning our paving slabs and pleased we bought i
Great pressure washer, I have previously owned Karcher pressure washers and this one is better and cheaper than the equivalent Karcher.
Bought to replace a broken Karcher, very pleased, it easily outperforms it’s predecessor.
it works very well. Good rotating nozzle gives quick and easy change.
The unit comes with a 3 in 1 head which gives you a pencil jet (thin & powerful), Rotating jet which is like the pencil but it moves around in a circular motion and the standard fan (this is the least powerful to be gentler on items like your car). This head is extremely handy as you have no changing of heads for the different types, you just twist the end into the selected jet position.
You also get a detergent dispensing bottle/jet – the jet on this is of a fan type as well. I used this attachment with some Autoglym polar blast pre-wash snow foam and it foamed pretty good. The bottle in my opinion is rather small and is used up in the space of a minutes use. There is no control to make the mixing faster or slower which would have been nice. Over all I was happy with the performance though, the bottle lasted (just) to cover my 4×4 in foam.
The power cords is about 5m in length, the wand hose is 7m in length which is decent for a pressure washer. The lance is in 3 parts which store in clips on either site. They fit together by a push and twist connection. I found the 3 in 1 head quite stiff to push on but it does go and I suppose it is more likely to prevent leaks than if it was a little more loose.
One part I am not a big fan of is the connectors for the pressure hose. They are push fit which is fair enough but when you have finished using the washer you have a tab that you need to push to the side to release the connection. If there is any water pressure at all in the pipe then these tabs are extremely hard to push to release the connection. I had to use something to lever the tab to release the pipe connector. Next time I will make sure that I empty as much of the air/water from the pipe before trying to disconnect the pipe!
One feature that may be of use to some is the ‘self priming’ facility. To use this you need to buy the self priming kit, it does not come with this as standard. It allows you to use non mains water supplies like a water butt, bucket etc to supply the water. The kit is essentially a pipe with a filter & back flow suppressor that you connect to the machine and submerge the other end into your water source. I doubt I would ever need/use this but you never know and I can see the usefulness for some situations where a mains tap is not available.
It also actually compacts down quite small. The handle moves down (like a lot of washers) but it also folds back so the total height is the height of the main body.
A word of advice: Bosch have two fitting types for their accessories and buying them is a minefield. There are ‘AQT’ fittings and ‘Aquatek’. Although this is an Aquatek model do not get Aquatek accessories. This washer takes the newer AQT type fittings (they are the same as Black & Decker pressure washer connections). I bought a show foam gun from a local shop so I was able to take my lance in to check the fitting. The Aquatek will not engage fully as there is a collar stopping the accessory going all the way in. The Black & Decker/AQT fitting worked perfectly.
If you register on the Bosch website within 28 days you also receive a full 3 year Bosch guarantee.
The downsides I see are small overall which is why I gave it 5 stars and recommended.
