Absolutely. 33 is sufficient for most car and bikes with daily urban usage and rain grime and dirt cleaning.

If you have a hardcore 4x4 with snorkels and heavy lift suspension then you. We'd at least 120 bar to clean.

I use 37-13 plus to clean my nexon

How is the noise level of the 37-13 under use? Does it come with a Drain cleaner attachment?

I use it on a 5A socket sometimes with an adapter, works fine. Since, you don't keep the machine on for more than 4-5 minutes at a time, the wires get time to cool down. Though not recommended, once in a while for short burst it's fine i guess.

Guys, can you suggest something good if budget is not a consideration. Want to use on larger SUV's and also office commercial pickups.

If you want a Robust machine then look at the Karcher K3 and K4 series pressure washer. They have a water-cooled motor and last long without troubles if they are taken care of.

Wow! That was fast. It's a good machine. Just take care that it is moved around with care without sudden impacts. Also verify that the water is flowing out of the gun when the trigger is pressed before turning on the motor. This will ensure that there is no air in the system and the motor will not run dry. This is for the main thing that you have to ensure every time you connect the pipes and stuff. Nothing conks off the motor faster than running it dry

My personal preference is Karcher and Bosch simply because they have their service centres every where. Easy to get parts and service when required.

You can get Karcher K2 for 7-8K and if you can stretch your budget then you can go for K3 premium which has a water cooled motor. I have used my K3 for 6hrs straight and the motor was not even warm during that usage. All Karcher products are made in Germany and only thing which is Indian is the power cable. Karcher does not send the unit with Indian power plug size so the original one is removed in India and fitted with the Indian power cable.

Sir, do let me know how the FJ6 performs. I am a bit apprehensive about it's ability to get the thick foam.

It is very average. I have purchased a dedicated foam lance and it is far better than the FJ6

Guys,

I am looking to buy a pressure washer for my Rapid. Zeroed in on Bosch. What is the difference between Bosch AQT 35-12 and Aquatek 130?

Between these 2 models you should go in for the Aquatek 130. The 130 is the newer model. Bosch's new naming convention is a 3 digit code instead of a 2 digit hyphen 2 digit model # for e.g. 35-12.

Some of their older models that are still being manufactured and sold. But these will eventually be replaced with newer models.

To add to what R2D2 Sir has already posted, AQT 130 is a 130 bar machine compared to 120 bar for 35-12. Comparable machine to 35-12 would be AQT 120. Also, in addition to the nomenclature, the units on the newer models sound much more refined compared to the older machines.

My friend purchased 37-13+ a week before I got my AQT 130. There is a significant difference in the way both sound.

Thanks for sharing this info. Comes in handy for my Karcher K2

I was under an impression that the machine was faulty when water started to come out of the gun even before the machine was turned on.
