i was interested in this but their company is so unresponsive to emails and general questions. if they cant even respond to a general email of when they expect their product to be back in stock, i cant imagine how poor their customer service would be if you ever needed to do a warranty claim. ive emailed twice now asking when they expect to be in stock and nothing. ended up just buying an active since they didnt say anything.

Buy a high pressure garden hose nozzle with soap dispenser for $5.99 (or splurge and pay $11.99). Probably will give you more psi.

Bought it cause of the good reviews but regret it now. It can't run off generators or power stations because the GFCI plug on it trips. I haven't found a solution yet other than maybe changing the GFCI to a regular 3 prong plug but I'm not sure how safe that is. I can't find a single youtube reviewer that has tested the thing for mobile applications, which is where it fails.
@CarsWithKeav14 сағат бұрын
There have been a few mobile guys I know who have changed to a 3 prong non-gfci and it worked. Change it to a standard 110 ground plug. Should be just fine as the generator should have built in protection as well.

I still have a good hand nozzle for my wheel cleaners but have considered the solo as an option after seeing your review videos. Couldn't believe the 260 stopped spraying and when the 460 fell right after and shattered my jaw dropped. I'm so glad it still works and at least now you have a charging cable for it. Expensive charging cable though. Lol I did purchase the rechargeable foamer found a seller for under 30 that was shipped via prime but the price fluctuate so much you have to catch it at the right time. Last i checked it was a dollar less than when I bought it. Lol Still have to test it out but I got it based on your videos and have no doubt it will work well. Thanks for the great content as always.

I was debating on whether or not to get the cheap battery foamer that you reviewed a while ago. The product and the sellers either have bad reviews or the zero reviews, and they are all coming from China with long delivery time. Now here comes the battery sprayer with no foam. Solo has way better reviews and they are US sellers which means faster shipping. Now the question is do we really need the foam on the wheels?
@CarsWithKeavКүн бұрын
The China sellers will eventually have inventory in the US and will have quick delivery times. They did at one point, but the demand is exceeding their ability to keep stock in Amazon warehouses so they have long delivery times. Early reviews I don’t take much value in. I actually don’t look at reviews that often as I have a lot of products I love that have bad reviews because people don’t know how to use them. Like DI resin people blame the resin for them not knowing their water is bad quality. When it comes to foam its not really ever needed it’s just nice to have especially for wheels and tires to see where you last sprayed or brushed. Foam is more lubricitive most of the time as well.

@CarsWithKeav2 күн бұрын
Giraffe will work just fine. These are built to last decades and if any issue can be rebuilt. Products like Giraffe are disposable and not made to handle commercial volume. The other thing would be performance there is much more flow on these and would equate to better rinsing efficiency especially for a detailing business. For a homeowner it’s not needed it’s a want and many of us want better products. Many choose what they spend extra on say like coffee you don’t need Starbucks, but many choose it. Only difference is in the end if you sell the Kranzle years later it’s still worth at least 50% of what you paid for it.
