Water Jet Power Washer

I was first looking into a real pressure washer because we have a lot of concrete in our backyard, driveway and walkway. What I found is that they were either overkill for what I need, expensive and bulky, use a lot of power. On the other hand the smaller, less expensive pressure washers seemed like they would be great. However, when researching the smaller ones I read too many complaints of plastic pieces breaking, hoses that you could not just buy anywhere breaking, units that had the motor or pump go bad so I really wasn't interested in spending the money on something a lot of people seem to have issues with or that might not last.I knew it wouldn't be anything like a real pressure washer but was looking for some sort of alternative like maybe some kind of hose attachment that could create a high powered stream when I clean my concrete every 6 months to a year.Today I put it to the test. My car's Windshield Washer nozzles were barely working and water was barely coming out. I already used compressed air that I blew into the hoses, temporarily fixed the issue but it came back. I figured there was something in the washer bottle plugging up the pump causing this to reoccur. Unfortunately, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to remove the windshield washer bottle. I removed the attachment bolts and it wouldn't pull down from underneath or pull up from the top due to other things in the engine compartment that were in the way.I figured I'd blast a lot of water down the filler neck of the windshield washer bottle hoping any crud in there would overflow out the top. I was going to use the regular hose attachment then had the idea to try this since I just received it. I was able to stick it down the windshield washer bottle filler neck pretty much to the bottom, used the stream fitting and blasted the thing. All kinds of crud from over the years came overfilling out the top of the filler neck. I just ran it for a while, blew compressed air into the washer nozzle hoses then blasted more water with the attachment and watched more crud come out, which fixed the issue.There are others like this but most are made of plastic and I read break easily. This one seems well constructed and so far seems pretty solid. It also included a couple of extra o-rings which was nice.Now was the real test to clean my concrete after. I typically sweep because it works better and doesn't waste water although requires more work. I am not one of those people that like to waste a million gallons of water hosing down their driveways and backywards every week like a lot of people but once or twice a year I do like to give it a good spray down. I used the attachment that fans out the water spray in a line and I thought it worked pretty well. It moved dirt and debris very well, washed off most bird droppings etc. The key is also to hold it by the handle and keep the nozzle close to the surface so it gets a more powerful spray.Overall I thought it worked pretty good. In fact after I was done I realized I actually also had a slight leak in my hose so the water pressure through the nozzle wasn't even as high as it should have been but it still seemed to work pretty good to me. Let's be honest, this isn't going to have the power of a powered pressure washer but is a pretty good inexpensive alternative if you don't really need "that much" pressure and aren't doing super heavy duty washing.

I purchased this the first time 4 years ago. The valve has started leaking and I recently ordered a second. The "new" unit is one that was returned by a previous buyer (how do I know? The blister pack had been stapled back to the cardboard without checking the unit or correcting the owner's problem before shipping it out to me. This unit will not thread onto a garden hose more than two turns making it unusable...period. My original unit (4 yrs old) worked well and works well now except for a blast of spray from the on/off valve when I open or close it. I use mine primarily to wash off cement patio and screened-in back porch. I also use it to spray off vehicle. Although I do not want to bother to return this new unit (hassle), I will and I expect to receive a 'real' new unit along with many mea culpas. Don't know if this is Amazon's fault (if unit was returned to them?) or the manufacturer (unit was returned to them?). I love Amazon, but one 'aw s***' cancels out ten 'att-a-boys'!!!Update: I returned the item above and re-ordered it from Amazon. I received the second one today. Ran out to the hose and tried to connect it. Same problem. It leaks from the connection at the hose and it leaks from the threaded nozzle at the other end. The unit will only screw onto the hose one turn. That just won't come close to seating the washer resulting in lots of play at the hose end. All I can think of is that this was a bad manufacturing run at the factory. My original unit from 4 years ago worked and works fine for what it is intended to do. When the on/off valve started to leak I had hoped a new unit would work as well. This is not a pressure washer in the modern sense of the word. But who wants to set up and drag a gas or electric pressure washer around for common everyday jobs. Hope they can get this figured out and correct the flaws.

I have read some very mixed reviews the Ontel WJET-MC6! After buying one of these simple little units I can see why. The on/off handle is a stock hardware item found many compressors and pressure washers. The Engineering on this nozzle is great. It narrows from a standard hose diameter to a very small diameter hole to increase the pressure of the water pressure available to a fine focused spray. The simple physics on this unit takes a given volume water and forces it through a very small hole to act as a force multiplier. If you start with low volume and pressure, this unit has no pistons or compressor devices to produce a paint peeling stream.My home is almost 90 years old, but the water is unimpeded and normal for a home of this vintage. My results mimic the product demos exactly. If you live in an apartment or townhouse with high water demands, your results may vary from the usage of your neighbors that share the same system. It is just a nozzle and that is what I wanted. If you have low water pressure, you will be better off buying a motorized sprayer at a significantly higher cost. Too much pressure will blast the paint off a car or motor home if the paint is chipped or worn. Great straightforward design and good quality parts that performs as advertised if your water system holds up its end.I bought my unit weeks ago from Amazon. I'll get another one for the front yard too. I hope it suits your needs!

I found this looking for a different item and after reading the reviews decided to give it a try. No, this will not take the place of a real power washer but that isn't what I needed for simple chores. It's good for washing the deck or the front door without being so powerful it chips the paint off as the BF did when he went crazy with his real power washer and now the front of the house has to be repainted. It's great for rinsing the 2nd floor windows, which is my primary use. There is no motor so no gas involved, just the trick of focusing the water stream. It's inexpensive enough that it's worth trying it out as long as you know what you are getting as many other reviewers have noted. I like mine just fine, although I haven't had it that long so i cannot comment on how durable it is.

I like the water jet. I use it in the milkhouse on the dairy farm. It has enough pressure to wash down the walls and equipment and saves bringing in the pressure washer. I wish I could find this product instore.

Sadly this was not comparable to any sort of pressure washer, I wish I could say different, this is my honest feedback, wish it had worked better.

Works great but too bad I couldn't get another onr from Giant Tiger for $10 !
