Other than getting the hose connector turned around (watch out for that one), the machine is simple to put together and use kzbin.infoUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP . And very nice, too. I'm surprised at the power-it's more than we'll ever need, and we've not even used the most powerful setting yet.I've cleaned off a dirty concrete porch to get it ready for sealing, started to clean siding, and I know this pressure washer will be terrific for cleaning tools this fall.The only issue we had is we had turned around the hose connector, and it leaked. Once it was on correctly, though, we had no problems with the connection. Just remember that the end with the green knob goes towards the hose. It's obvious now what we did wrong, but not necessarily obvious at the time.

You need to think outside the box.. I agree for car detailing use I will use the regular pressure washer and garden hose. What I really got it for and to touch on being efficient is cleaning my large glass and tile shower. I use the the Ryobi scrubber brush to clean the tile and this pressure washer with a bucket of water to rinse the walls down. It really beats trying to fill your hands and throw the water or a cup and toss the water on the tall ass walls to rinse cleaner off. Hell I suppose if your up for it toss it in the toliet tank for a water source and even eliminate carrying a bucket around. Window washing or other household tasks this works great.

I own a different brand portable pressure washer and it is a great tool to have. It's important to note that it was meant for people without water or power outlet available. Mine also comes with a soap bottle (waiting for a better one in the mail) which with a good dilution ratio gives enough lubrication and suds for the dirt to be pulled for hand washing.

I just picked one of these up for winter salt removal, way to cold in the northeast in the winter to have an operable garden house, this will allow me to simply bring out a bucket of warm water and hit all the problem areas like wheel wells, rocker panels and wheels several times a week without having to go to the car wash. I'm thinking this is prob one of it's more useful purposes, honestly.

I’ve used the hydro shot for a little while now. Our filtration system for our well water makes our water pressure absolutely abysmal. I originally got this for use in the winter when the hose bib is turned off. I do find myself using it a lot more than I thought I would, mostly with my rinseless washes. I tend to use my pressure washer to give my car a thorough rinse and then pull it in to the garage to finish up with a rinseless wash. Sometimes setting all that up can be annoying, so I’ll mix up the 4 gallons of rinseless solution, siphon that through my hydroshot to get a better rinse than my garden hose can give me, and have a little less to clean up. It’s a pretty niche market, that’s for damn sure.

Be careful connecting the hose directly to the device; that's a lot of torque for the plastic fitting on the sprayer to handle. I broke mine almost immediately, and I was trying to be careful. I think it would be safer to connect the sprayer to the siphon hose and then connect the siphon to the garden hose. I hope that makes sense.
