If i had looked at the review section on the sites? I would maybe not buy a rac pressurewasher. But i did and although it developed aleak out of warrenty by 2 monthes i contacted heikal?? and by return they replaced free the part so hats off to richard packman. And no i dont own any shares. Before we comlain about these on line companies we should give them the chance to solve the problem? (read more)

Written on: 12/02/2011
Bought My RAC HP094 last year, only used it about 4 times then it would not pump water instead water gushed out from inside, as I could not find the Garantee and had owned it for just short of a year, decided to have a look inside and found that the pressure switch had broken away from the housing this could not have been done by myself as its safe inside the cover so I imagin the water pressure must have broken the switch.
My old Karcher lasted 20 years wished I bought another Karcher instead.

RAC HP021 Pressure Washer has too low a water flow to remove stubborn dirt around patios. After about 6 - 7 uses it quit with a puff of smoke and a burning smell. A definite waste of money. (read more)

Written on: 20/10/2008
RAC HP021 only supposed to work when trigger on lance is held.
After 20 minutes use had left it for a few minutes when motor started up on its own, with smoke pouring out & strong smell of burning. Had to turn it off at mains connection.
Took it back to Argos who immediately gave full refund.

“At fifth time of use, just stopped working....”
Written on: 27/05/2008
At fifth time of use, just stopped working. Unfortunately 4 months out of guarantee. User Guide offers only cause as "overheat cut-out, wait 15 minutes". It did seem like electrical fault, so I checked cable, fuse, etc. but it never revived, and no accessible parts or spares. Telephone help line doesn't answer. Woolworths still sell these, price looks cheap but not for so little use. Avoid. (read more)

Written on: 22/05/2008
The RAC HP021 Pressure Washer was a waste of £79.99, can't believe ARGOS are still selling such a poor brand. Jet attachment broke and the pipe has now split, not bad for 5 uses over 1 year. It's also very heavy and by design the weight breaks the front cover very quickly. (read more)

I found this review very helpful because... same thing happened to me the hose split after 3rd time of being used. Argos should take note of this. With pressure washers you often only use at infrequent times so it can be out of guarantee before you find a problem even though ive only used it for a short time.
