    I've had a Worx hydroshot for almost 3 years and as long as your expectations are kept within the tools limits you'll be very happy with it Is anyone using cordless pressure washers like this one?

    Re: Is anyone using cordless pressure washers like this one?

    I wanted to let Klasse chime in first as I knew he's got the closest experience to what you linked.

    I recently researched the topic and ended up picking up a (no longer sold) Greenworks unit. I went that route because it has a higher pressure than a lot of options while still having similar GPM. I also already had a couple Greenworks tools so I didn't need to buy any batteries.

    If you're already in the DeWalt ecosystem and like Klasse said you've got your expectations in line with how that type of unit performs, then I think that one would be a great option.

    If I didn't get the one I did, I probably would have gone with SunJoe's offering that's rated at 1196 max psi (800 or 650 continuous, 2 pressure settings) and 1gpm. The high end Works Hydroshot Ulta was 725psi/1.1gpm last I looked. Good specs, but with the Works I wasn't crazy about carrying all the weight in your hand VS a bucket fed floor model though.

    I've used my Greenworks a bunch. Pre-rinses in the garage to get the grit off before doing a Rinseless wash, some minor clean up around outside the house when I didn't want to hook up my normal corded pressure washer, as well as using it to clean some area rugs I brought outside (pre-rinse, spot treat, rinse, extract). Worked great!


    What are you looking to use one for?

    Re: Is anyone using cordless pressure washers like this one?

    I have a Hydroshot I bought at least 3 years ago. I bet the 40v version is much more useful. I use mine for a DI water rinse later in the season when my DI resin starts to lose it's mojo. I buy 6 gallon DI water jugs from my local water filtration shop. The Hydroshot hose drops in and sucks it right out. I'm sure the Dewalt does this too. It would be really nice having this Dewalt setup because I have a ton of 20v Dewalt batteries lol.

    At first I was wondering if you meant the Hydroshot Ultra I mentioned, but looks like they have a non-Ultra rated at 450psi that's dual battery too.

    Tool weight of 6.9 lbs on the dual battery Hydroshot, 9.1 lbs on the Ultra. Quick google shows the DeWalt at 9.93lbs.

    One other factor that led me to go with the Greenworks - now it's no different than using a regular pressure washer weight-wise.

    I suppose it's building to a price point - at HD: 450psi = $205, 725psi Ultra = $389.

    Re: Is anyone using cordless pressure washers like this one?

    I bought the worx Hydroshot about 18 months ago with the big battery hoping to use it to apply Hydro SIO2 products to my wheels in my garage which is does not have a water source. After trying it a few times I relegated it to my detail closet, and I use it to clean the wheels on my scooter. It’s just too much hassle to apply Hydro products, I have to fill a big bucket and carry that around because I don’t have enough reservoir using a bottle attached to it, if you lose the prime to syou have to go through all sorts of directions again to get the prime back, it’s a veryWell-made product, but it didn’t work too well for me. However the worx battery system works great on the sawzall and leave blower tools which I use several times a month.
