Thanks for recognizing all the efforts I put into making my videos, but also in staying connected with my viewers. I'm the only big detailing channel that personally replies to KZbin comments on a daily basis. Don't get me wrong, it can get overwhelming, as you can imagine with over a million subscribers sending me thousands messages every day on all platforms, as I can spend up to 4 hours every day just to reply to KZbin comments. It does take away precious personal time or time with my family, but I try my best to stay connected with my viewers. :)

Hi Pan i also have the active 2.0. Did my research and base on all of what i saw pulled the trigger. I’ve used pressure washers before to get things cleaned around the house but this is a first for me since i just recently purchased a brand new car (2023 Tesla Model Y performance). I have this paired to a Mckillans short gun with swivel, Uberflex 50ft hose and MJJC V2 foam cannon and it absolutely exceeds my expectations. Also IMJOSHV KZbin video on it was a huge help (i copied his setup lol)

[@Yielar1]

Thanks for the video review Pan! I just ordered the Active 2.0 and I'm just waiting for it to arrive so I can test it out. Do you know if the Active 2.0 would work in a mobile situation pulling water from a 50 gallon drum of water?

[@Spirited282]

Myself i have a Karcher 1700 Cube but if it goes for sure i will pickup an active 2.0. I have the exact Kobra hose you show along with MTM Hydro wand and foam canon that was part of a bundle on carzilla. Thanks for reviewing it Pan, seems like a great unit

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks!

[@onlysevere293]

I should’ve researched them before wasting my money on a Ryobi. I should’ve bought the best (Kranzle). My next will be a Kranzle.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah Kranzle is the last pressure washer you'll ever need. Either my K122TST, or if you're mobile, they make the same pump in a super compact unit like this: bit.ly/3Fw4xp8

[@andrewburt4838]

Any Canadians compare the Active 2.0 to the Simoniz Platinum 2300 (model XE32)? Listed as 2.0 gpm with an induction motor

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Hi Andrew. The first generation Simoniz 1800 was made by Active. It was the same as the active VE52. For the Simoniz Platinum 2300 pressure washer, I haven't heard any info suggesting if it's made by Active or not. But it doesn't look anything like the Active 2.0 The Platinum 2300 if anything looks closer to the pump design of the Active 2.3 But how knows which brand makes it for Simoniz.

[@1powerequalsgod]

I would like to get something like this that small and lightweight an is very quick to setup since I’m at different worksites. I wonder how long the on and off switch will hold up.

[@skipper_mtb6644]

Has anyone managed to source one of these in the UK?

[@markschlager591]

Hi Pan. Would this work in Australia? One of my mate just told me about this pressure washer using 60hz while we use 50hz in Australia? Is this accurate?

[@jean-marc1662]

Au Québec, vous pouvez l'acheter chez Passion Detailling qui se trouve à Ste-Hyacinthe. Je viens de la changer car ma Karcher Cube m'a lâché. Elle est vraiment smooth à l'utilisation et en plus moins bruyante que mon ancienne. À date, aucun regret à l'achat.

My opinion is the ar630tss hot is the best electric pressure washer better design pump ceramic pistons , steel valve , viton seals and better price on paper and real test outperform the Kranzle

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Opinions don’t matter unless you have actually owned or tested both. Real world testing does. Ask Matt Moreman from Obsessed Garage which one he’d pick. Kranzle all the way. He has tested all the pressure washers pretty much, and even sells both Kranzle and AR Blue. ;)

[@Leo-cl1xq]

@@PanTheOrganizer That’s funny Matt test the ar630tss and he accept that outperform the Kranzle even on his website they say it look at the description for the ar630 you will see it and see the video clearly do betters numbers

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It's not just about numbers Leo... A car with 700hp is not necessarily "better" than a car with 500hp. It can be faster, yes, but there's a lot more to it than just raw speed. The Kranzle is better built there's no doubt about it. It's not even close. Anyone who has tested both (like Matt and I) can attest to this. Is the AR Blue good? Yes absolutely. Is it better than a Kranzle 1122TST or 1322TST? Absolutely not. I'm guessing you own an AR Blue?

I bought the simoniz version of the ve52 last year (they go on sale for 230). I upgraded to an sgs28 wand, pf22 foam cannon, 50' flexzilla hose, and added a 4.0 25 degree tip from princess auto (i find 25 tips the sweet spot for using a short gun), and I couldn't be happier! I use it for my mobile detailing side gig and have no issue washing even large dually trucks with it

[@tufftimesbc]

I’ve got the same Simoniz pressure washer (Canadian Tire) with similar upgrades. I’ve had it for over a year and I’m quite happy with it.

[@ken_kronhaus_photography]

I have this as well. I am very happy with it. Great flow. Shaving cream foam with my MJJC pro foam cannon. Great customer service as well. Am on my second unit. Bought my fist in December. Didn’t really get to use it till the spring. Not long after, it started cycling on and off while washing vehicle. They replaced the unit right away. Really appreciated their support. I would highly recommend this pressure washer.

[@nomad509]

I was an early adopter with the VE52 and still love the unit despite it's flaws and I'd drop another 350 dollars on the upgraded version if I was using it often. The grey KobraJet hose and Ultimate OG accessory package is the best car washing experience I've ever had. The Active 2.0 is on the must have list next year!

[@jacirisser1623]

I really appreciate the level of research, detail and passion that you put into your work.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

[@photog1529]

I'm by no means a professional detailer...I just like having a clean vehicle. After purchasing a new vehicle, I recently got into the 'personal' detailing and was looking for a pressure washer, preferably electric. Rather than splurge on a premium unit, I decided to give the Ryobi 1800 a try, even though the flow was only 1.2 gpm. For a cost of $95, it is performing very well. I'm using a McKillans swivel and foam cannon, and this setup makes plenty of foam, even with a 30' flexible hose...no problem in that regard. I did need an adapter to convert the Ryobi water out threads to the McKillans, but other than that not a single issue. Very satisfied at this point.

Thanks Pan for this informative video. As a strictly, "driveway detailer" only, I've been considering an electric pressure washer for a while now, but just wasn't sure about which make? You've taken all the guess work out of it for me with this demo. I think this will be the one for me, if I can get my hands on one, and I love the fact that it's a Canadian made product! Again, thanks for your time in researching and demonstrating this product for us. 😊

[@PaulCammisa-e7l]

Hi Pan...love the overview of the Active 2.0. I bought mine in March 2023 and can tell you it has been absolutely amazing to detail cars. It's also great for more sensitive items such as composite decking, and summer furniture. Thanks again!!👍

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing!

[@JoseJose-kl7bj]

i recently got mine, about a month ago, used it like 10 times already... but another thing i used it for, was for my house windows, i have DI water, and the pressure is perfect for windows... i use my gas water pressure for the rest of the house... for whatever reason, it didnt cross my mind for cleaning the summer furniture, imma have to use it for that...

[@kosd5293]

Great video as always Pan! I have this unit wall mounted OG style coupled with a cobra jet hose and active short gun / 4.5mm nozzle. One item I disagree with slightly is opting for the tool only. I bought the full kit from actives website and it was only $20 more than the unit alone. I think this is worth it to have an additional gun/hose/nozzle/foam cannon for portable use. I can disconnect my unit from my wall mounted set up using the quick disconnects and take it on the road with the accessory kit for washing things at my parents home. Just something to consider for those that may benefit from that versatility for a small up charge.

[@peterfiedler2813]

I have the Active 2.0 and purchased the tool, not the kit. It is fantastic and does everything you report. I'm a big OG fan and have added some of their quality connectors, Mosmatic swiveling gun, and MTM PF22.2 foam cannon. I'm waiting for the 5.0 orifice kit, but OG is back-ordered. I'm also using Koch Chemie products and getting fabulous results. I'm not a professional detailer, but I have been detailing my cars for nearly 3 decades. I keep upgrading my equipment as the science behind car detailing changes...or becomes more complex! Thank you for your excellent videos and attention to detail. I've learned many things from you and appreciate that you share your knowledge with car enthusiasts in Canada and the USA. Your previous tip on waxing the inside of the shower glass has amazed many of my friends who now follow your channel! Keep up the great work, and thanks again!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for the positive feedback Peter! I appreciate the support.

[@peterfiedler2813]

Quick question, Pan. Besides the Koch Chemi AF, is there another product you recommend for a generic "maintenance wash?" I can only find the 1.32-gallon bottle of AF. It would take me 10 years to go through that much! LOL! I use GSF for my pre-wash and then hand wash, but if I want to get "stuff" off the car, is there another product that will fit the quick wash scenario? Many thanks for taking the time to reply!@@PanTheOrganizer

[@PanTheOrganizer]

There are a few higher alkaline pH versions, some only available in big formats: Bilt Hamber Auto-Foam (pH13), Bilt Hamber-Touch Less (pH12), Koch Chemie Super Foam (pH12). But some available in smaller formats: CarPro Lift: bit.ly/3DTIpTL Gyeon Foam: bit.ly/3qkwpYw Gtechniq W4: bit.ly/3qlE7lb All three of these are safe of coated vehicles. But for regular weekly washes, continue with Gsf.

I'm for one appreciate the level of presentation you place into the products you demo, I trust your word and have placed an order on the Active 2.0,.. can't wait for it to arrive.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for the positive feedback! At its price point, I have yet to find a better pressure washer. Only step up from there is like an AR Blue or the best of the best, Kranzle. But you'd be paying 2-5 times the price.

[@blake8297]

This thing is legit. Its cool that the company worked with Matt at Obsessed Garage and they back it up with a 2yr warranty. I bought one and am very happy with it. It couldn't fit the price point any better, good job Active! I'm using the 4.5 tip and like it the best. I like to stay close to 1,000psi to help remove the grit along the lower portion of the car and in the fender wells.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

[@aaronmelson2887]

The Active 2.0 is perfect for me. I'm not a professional detailer. I like to detail my own car and my family so i don't need the Kranzle, even though that is an awesome pressure washer. But the cost and the gpm of the active is more than enough for me and what I do. I have a gas pressure washer as well that's about 8 years old and works perfectly. It's good for cleaning my driveway and even the bricks on my house.

This seems kind of pricey compared to something like SunJoe but having the unit be so small is really appealing.

Having something small like this, I would actually use it.

Hi Pan.. Just finished installing my new 2.0 on the wall with shelf mount and cox hose real and 75 cobra jet hose. One thing as a note to others is the unit has a kick to it when you initiate the gun ( you can see this in the video) I had to devise a hold down system for the unit so it did not kick off shelf. Very happy with my investment!

[@5abivt]

Decent unit been using mine for over a year. Power cord is long and good. The hose that is included will not even go around a car.. is about 6-10 feet too short . For a product aimed at the car enthusiast that’s an oversight imo. I have to pick up and move the unit, hose and power cable . A bit more length and it would’ve been perfect. My unit routinely revs up and loses pressure and makes funny noises. I’ve since replaced it with a Japanese built unit and gave this one to my dad.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing your experience. What "Japanese" built pressure washer are you using?

[@brian4828]

Awesome review as always! What really gets me with these consumer grade power washers is the limited number of hours they are rated for. 200 hours just doesn't seem to be that long of a time especially if it's used on a regular basis.

[@Stainlessautos]

In terms of detailing, I would be shocked if you used more than 10 minutes worth of water. So that’s 1200 washes…. Theoretically at least.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Exactly. It should last a long time. Before my expensive Kranzle, I had a Karcher K5 (rated 100 hrs) and even after ten years it was still working just fine and I wash way more cars than the average person.

[@timkinley1779]

It is built to a price point. Most consumers buy based on price. People aren't interested in things that they assume should be cheaper in price... regardless of the quality.

[@johnthebimmerman1406]

@@PanTheOrganizer same here, I have a K5 for over 10 years, and still going strong. A 3 hour job cleaning the concrete driveway once a year, and washing the car once or twice a month, weather permitting. I always prime it first, and use a 4mm nozzle.

I own this pressure washer, and it is amazing. Just make sure you have a high-quality water supply hose. The one currently on my reel has a tendency to kink and starve the pump.

Now: I hate things that don't work well, so I'd pretty much convinced myself to spend $350 on the Active 2.0 pressure washer rather than the $100 (less my 5% discount at Lowe's) Craftsman, disposable, model. But then I find, in order to make the Active pressure washer great for detailing, which was only the Original Purpose for it's design, I need to replace the lance with a swivel gun, I need to add some quick disconnects (not a huge deal), and (since I bought a "real" foam cannon from Griot) I don't need the included foam cannon either. I've watched a few reviews (not all) of the Active 2.0 unit, and before the review ever started the reviewer had already replaced the wand with the "proper" swivel gun. It seems what I really need is nothing but the Active pressure washer and four nozzles, (were it available) for $249; then invest $80 in their swivel gun, and $50 in an Uber Flex hose (and I already spent $99 on the Griot Foam Cannon), still for a total investment of a little under $500, not including tax. Maybe I'll just go back to the disposable Craftsman! It seems, if we could do it, paying $249 for a bare-bones Active 2.0 pressure washer rather than $100 for the (essentially bare bones, since I'd not use its accessories either) Craftsman unit would be a no-brainer, every time!

I've had my 2.0 for about 2 months now, and I love it. I had recently tried the Pro Flow from Chemical Guys after my old washer reached the end of its life, and that thing broke after 3 uses and was overall pretty cheap even though the kits from CG and Active 2.0 are the same price at $350. I also got the Active wand as well as upgrading the hose to the 50-foot Uberflex, and the MJJC foam cannon and I have been blown away by how wonderful it works and just how gratifying it is to use. It is well worth the money especially if you can find it as just the washer. I really can't recommend it enough. Great stuff as always, Pan!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Its not normal for the bigboi to break that easely. I use one at work for detailing and it has a lot of cars behind it now and still going strong.

[@billmongiello4885]

i'm kinda new to this so don't laugh at this question...i got this "Y" type adapter that you plug into the output of the gun, one part of the "Y" connects to the nozzle and the other to the foam cannon and there is a slider valve that switches between the two so you don' have to keep changing between nozzle and cannon...have you ever seen these and what are your thoughts on them...i haven't used mine yet but it seems interesting

[@Azantys]

Unfortunately here in Canada Carzilla and TOC are only selling the whole kit, which I don’t need as I have all the upgraded accessories including the active gun based on your recommendation. Maybe the dealers make more on the kit 🤷😂

[@larrycox6614]

Almost a year later to watch this, and now version 3 is out; albeit twice as expensive. I have a Class C RV and was told to be careful using pressure washers on them. After a few hours of viewing different professionals talking about flow rather than pressure, it was obvious in which direction to go in order not to damage paint schemes and decals (low pressure/high water flow). I personally visited and watched a couple of Truck/RV washes, and they really put the pressure to those rigs. Since I can't control what they do, I continued to search for a solution. This system fits the bill nicely. You are terrific in your detailed review/testing videos; really appreciate that. I've decided to go with washer only, and then separately buy hose, cannon, soap, etc. Should make for a great investment for keeping my vehicles clean.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It’s not version 3. It’s a completely different model called the Active 2.3 I have a video review coming on it soon. Completely different pump but the noise is almost unbearable. So the Active 2.0 at 2 gpm is a better value in my opinion. ;) Welcome to my channel.

Pan, thanks for the video and all your content. I’ve learned a lot from you. For your Canadian viewers - I would love to see a comparison of this pressure washer with the Simoniz 1800 PSI, 2.0 GPM from Canadian Tire. I understand it is made private label for Canadian Tire by Active and looks to have similar specs. It is also very affordable! Cheers.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

The Canadian Tire Simoniz version is made by Active, it's called the VE52. The VE52 was the first generation. The VE52 was a great machine, as long as you don't modify anything (changing hoses, nozzle orifices, etc). It wasn't meant to be modified. Hence why they released the new Active 2.0 You can hear one of the owners of Active talk about the VE52 and why they came up with a new machine in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXq9aK2rZdt9mNk The Active 2.0 is a totally new machine.

[@waxmanvids5015]

Love mine! I run 4.0 tips with the blue mtm mozzle guard..so sweet

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

UPDATE: Active sent me a brand new replacement unit under warranty. Solid customer service. I do want to consider buying this pressure washer but I’m a little concerned because I’ve had nothing but trouble in the past with Simoniz pressure washers (made by active); including the Simoniz ve52. This one looks promising so we’ll see

[@faithstormer1976]

Been using it for a while now and I’ve had no problems. It’s very easily portable and has more than enough power for foaming and pressure washing heavy dirt off of a car.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

What issues were you having? Matt (Obsessed Garage) met with the owner of Active and he explained the issues they were seeing with VE52 is people were upgrading hoses to longer ones and using different guns and orifices/tips and that would fault the units. The VE52 wasn’t developed to be modded by people for detailing. So that’s why when they developed the Active 2.0 they used higher quality components allowing for modding.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

@@PanTheOrganizer My previous Simoniz units had various issues all within a year including total stop systems failing, units turning on but not building any pressure at all. All were being operated with the factory accessories. My Karcher k1900 has been solid since I bought it a few years ago. I am working with Simoniz customer service right now to see if they can help me out my Simoniz VE52 since it’s still under warranty.

[@markghazal3790]

Was wondering if you had any experience using the CR Spotless only with the snow foam cannon and final rinse? But first rinsing with tap water to preserve the life of the CR Spotless filters. Was concerned if I may have water spots from first rinse. Or does the Deionized Water get rid of that? I have hard water with over 500 TDS. Thanks!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yes I usually do the first rinse and foam stage with normal water. I only use the DI water for the final rinse, where it counts most.

[@g.dubyou6263]

Great video, Pan. I found myself watching at the beginning, hoping you would cover all the bases, and I wasn’t disappointed. The most impressive one and I’m glad you mentioned, was the cleaning units. I heard you talking about the GPM, and found myself asking if you were going to mention cleaning units. Fantastic. I’ve had my 2.0 since launch day. It’s been flawless for me. I’m a weekend warrior. I have a whole host of tip sizes, the 50ft Kobrajet and PF22.2 foam cannon. I switched off of GSF, because it was leaving some film residue on my PPF, that I had to IPA wipe to get off. Really disappointing, as I loved the GSF snow foam capability.

Thanks for the positive feedback about my videos. 😁👍🏻

[@murtaghslawncare5861]

Can I use that grey hose you recommend for a 5gpm and 4,000 psi. Or can you suggest a good power hose that I can use. Wrecking my head trying to decide what hose to buy for power washing concrete driveways etc. My budget is v low as I am in a start up situation. Thanks Love your video

I purchased the Active 2.0 from the Obsessed Garage website after watching his hardcore review videos. I use the OG spec Mosmatic swiveling sprayer, wand and nozzles and High-Pressure 100 ft Hose w/ MTM Stainless Steel 3/8" Female QD Couplers. This makes for a killer setup for about $700 USD. This set up replaced my 2 year ole cheapo Karcher set up which is still chugging along. The water output of the Active unit is OUTSTANDING compared to the Karcher. I have owned the Active 2.0 for 3 months now. My only complaint is the unit is so light it tends to tip over when placed on top my detail cart. I have to strap it down with bungee cords. I will have to figure out a bwtter way to mount the Active unit on the wall of my garage. I'm so glad that you are reviewing this little unit Pan. You're such a high quality car detail aficionado!

New to the channel and enjoying your videos. Recently, I became more interested in car detailing. But, i live in South Texas, and we're under severe water restrictions, so i was wondering if you have any recommendations on what i can do to wash my car since the restrictions doesn't allow me to use a hose to wash a car in my driveway. I do have access to multiple automatic car wash locations as well as one manual car wash. My current thinking is to get some quality products and use the manual car wash but im not sure if thats cost effective or if ill be allowed to stay for an hour+ to "detal" my vehicle exterior.

A hose wash (or pressure washer wash) is always the best solution. The next best thing, if the car isn't covered in a thick layer of mud, is a rinseless wash.

Hello Pan. On your recommendation I purchased this washer. Now I am attempting to connect it to a hose reel that came with a short supply line with 3/8” male fittings on both ends. One end will screw into the base of the hose reel to supply water. The other end I want to connect to the washer where the water will come out. But I am completely confused on what connections to buy other than the 3/8” socket to M22-14mm fitting which goes on the washer you provided the link for in this video. PLEASE HELP! Thank you.

I have no doubt regarding your detailing knowledge. Regardless I am loosing confidence that your channel is of much help to me… I have been detailing my cars for many years the old fashion way, but I have finally decided to purchase a pressure washer - RYOBI 1800, for less than $100 - along with all the required accessories. For me, spending over $300 for the entire kit is all I am willing and able to spend. However, your channel seems to address mostly professional detailers or people willing to spend for the latest and greatest. I wish I was in that position but I am not and thus I am finding your videos less than useful.

11 kg or 24 lbs is compact? Hmm...Not sure whether PAN got this right, as he is lifting 11 kg with his left hand as if it is a toy. Either Pan should be Arnold or it is 11 lbs to begin with..

It's compact in its size. The definition of compact is "closely and neatly packed together; dense." So yes, it's quite compact for a pressure washer as it's physical size is small. As far as weight, I find it lighter than most high quality pressure washers, including my Kranzle which weighs in at 80 lbs. So by comparison, yes the Active 2.0 is much much lighter. And with its practical handle, the Active 2.0 unit can be hauled around as you wish. If its weight is too much for you, I don't know what to say lol.

I was interested in purchasing the Active 2.0 Pressure wash but do you think it’d also be ideal to use for concrete & roofs in addition to car detailing?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Not sure, as I don't use my pressure washer for those purposes. My guess is you'd need a much higher powered machine for commercial tasks like that (3000+ or more gas powered pressure washer). For washing cars, we don't want anything beyond 2000 psi.

This video features a review of the Active 2.0 pressure washer, which is recommended as the best value option for car detailing at $350. The video discusses its specs, design, accessories, and performance, including a demo of the product in use. The reviewer also shares their upgrade options and overall verdict on the product

Good review of my review! 😁

Do you prefer this hose over the blue UberFlex everyone raves about? I like that this one has the quick connects built in but the UberFlex does seem lighter and more flexible?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Both are fairly equal in my opinion. Don’t overthink the moment and get the less expensive one.

[@CarolCityCane305]

Pan wanted to ask you what’s the best pressure water that doesn’t require maintenance maybe electric for a mobile detailing vehicle …and do you need a water pump to connect it to the water tank? Is that needed

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I don’t operate a mobile detailing business so I can’t give you advice in that. Perhaps reach out to mobile detailers on channels like Top Class Detail or Miranda Detailing.

[@Austin-xl5tz]

I can’t find just the tool anywhere. I’m in the US. All I’m able to find is the kit with the hose and gun included

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Did you check my links? Here: amzn.to/3XRDg7K That comes with the hose and gun. It seems there’s no other way to get it at this point in time.

[@darrenpang1318]

Uhhrghhh, this just doesn't cut it. I live in Malaysia, and my pressure washer is (way) better than this thing by far: My specs: - 130 BAR (1885 PSI) - 11L/min (3Gallons/min) - Comparable weigh with this one Costs: USD 55.

How well does this do for cleaning driveways? I would like to have my pressure washer be versatile enough to do both car detailing and driveway cleaning.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I haven't tested this for that purpose. For detailing, we don't want anything over 2000 psi. If cleaning driveways is part of your livelihood, perhaps look into a more powerful gas powered unit with higher psi. But make sure you can adjust the pressure lower when detailing cars.

[@amill1563]

Wow, awesome price. Matt really sells the good stuff.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

At that price I have yet to find anything better. Time will tell if it’s also reliable.

[@rchung5]

Even though convenient, I don't like hoses with built in quick connects because I like to put a water shut off on the hose that makes changing accessories easier without having to turn off the unit: shut off the water flow from the hose, release the water pressure, then change your accessory.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. How did you discover my channel by the way? Welcome to my channel.

[@hgodtx]

So confused...i dont see any diff between the 1st and 3rd links. Tool only vs kit. Explain me?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I think Amazon updated their listings. You used to be able to order just the pressure washer unit itself with no accessories. Now that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. It comes with all the accessories including wand and hose.
