Bought this pressure washer last year from Homebase and used it once before storing carefully away for use this year. I have just prepared the pressure washer for use because I planned to clean the patio furniture.
The pressure washer worked for a maximum of 5 seconds and then nothing. I have checked the fuse and electrical / water connections etc to ensure that evrything is as it should be. I decided that the washer was at fault and started to look for a reset button but none found. I then looked on internet only to find the terrible reviews for this product (lesson learnt look at reviews before buying). I then looked on Homebase web site only to find that the reviews there are also terrible. Why does a Company like Homebase sell rubbish like this, it will do nothing to promote customer satisfaction. I buy many items from Homebase evry year but will think twice in future. Washer is not under warranty any more so my loss. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

An absolute waste of money! A Dreadful Product! Could not recommend this product. Our first purchase was faulty so we returned it immediately. The replacement functioned normally for two or three occasions & we stored it away until this year. Just connected it to hose & large quantities of water leak from inside the housing from the machine itself!. Instruction manual does not tell you how to open casing and therefore cure of serious leak is prevented. We were influenced by "RAC" name which is prominent and needing to buy a pressure washer that could wash down cars and our patio, had confidence in the supposed endorsement! I'm going to return this to Homebase today! AVOID AT ANY PRICE!!!

Same thing has just happened to us. Got pressure washer out to clean the patio for the summer and cuts out after five seconds. My husband has spent almost an hour trying to get it to work. I decided to look up the product and amazed to see all these negative reports. We are dumping it!
