When it comes to value the Bosch pressure washers do have a little bit more, either they are slightly higher in pressure compared to the similar Karcher model, or they also tend to have a longer hose or an extra attachment thrown in too.

They also now have a LED trigger gun in their ‘Full Control’ range which is new for 2016.

A fixed lance can’t be adjusted, though you can move it nearer or further away from the area you’re trying to clean. You can also buy models with a variable pressure lance, where you can twist the nozzle at the end to alter the power of the spray – rather like a hosepipe attachment. This lets you create either a powerful narrow jet of water or a gentler, broad spray. If you're considering buying a pressure washer, but you're not sure you would get the return on investment that you need, then the short answer is that you can use your washer all across your outdoor space to great effect. Includes a superior range of accessories to work with such as the pressure adjustable lance and the dirt-blaster lance. Thanks to their concentrated water jets, pressure washers will save you valuable hours on the most heavy-duty tasks, as well as being incredibly satisfying to use on dirt and grime.
