Bosch Aquatak 110 Plus Comfort

Advantages: Hose reel, well balanced, detergent tank, the king of its family.
Disadvantages: Accessories/additional lances etc are hard to find, but are available.

...Bosch bring to you the King of their pressure washer range, the Aquatak 160 Pro X! (If the title doesn't excite you then the specification certainley will) The ''Rolls Royce'' of the Aquatak range, its stylish body holds the 2800w heart, producing a maximum pressure of 155bar creating a 570ltr per hour water flow like no other Aquatak system. No job is too big (nor small) for the 160 Pro X. Now the many features include, a hose reel, (no longer do you have to wind the high pressure hose up by hand and it spring back to life in your face), simply wind it back up onto the reel and voila!, nice tidy storage. The detergent tank is removable as well, a little tricky but none the less it can be removed, i am not sure as to why people may want to remove it (pouring detergent into it is fairly easy) but it has that option to be removed...

Advantages: screw feed, robust
Disadvantages: can turn wet/oily leaves into a jamming poultice

...I first bought a 'cheap' £80 shredder that had rotating blades like a food processor. I spent more time stripping it down and unblocking it than shredding. I returned it and saw the Bosch with its screw feed. Twice the price...but I needed a shredder to compact my hedge cuttings to a reasonable level. I got the Bosch...easy to assemble, well balanced, simple controls. I started with a small branch, a finger thickness....grabbed, autofed in, and spat out the other end in small pieces. Wow, this thing works well. My wife and I then fed in larger branches..if it goes in the hole, it gets chomped. All the branches went through..relentlessly....the occasionnal block sorted out by a quick reverse. The only problems we had was with really oily leaves...they can pulp to form a sticky poultice that doesn't eject unless you put something... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use and well made.
Disadvantages: A tad more expensive.

..., cutting off the water supply, or anything else that I’m sure I’d been set up to do, and I was suitably impressed with myself as a result. Despite the amount of pipes and strange shapes I had to fit the boards around, I found it pretty damn easy using my new jigsaw. With a maximum wood cutting depth of 68mm, there is very little I need to cut that is any thicker than that – especially with the sort of jobs I will probably use the tool for in future. (eg. shelving, wooden flooring, furniture repairs etc.) If I need to cut any great big thick pieces of wood – perhaps to build a full sized replica of the Cutty Sark or something – I might get a saw with a bigger range, but for the moment, my Bosch PST65PE is just the ticket. *********************************************************************************** SOME USEFUL FEATURES FOR ME ARE...
