Score: 68/100
Greenworks 2100 PSI Pressure Washer
Score: 72/100Rankings
The Greenworks 2100 PSI Compact Electric Pressure Washer is a corded unit designed for medium-duty residential cleaning tasks, featuring a 13Amp universal motor and a 25-foot hose with a reel. Its key strength is the PWMA certification and compact storage design, making it convenient for home use. However, it is heavier than cordless options and users report it feels weaker than gas models. It is best suited for homeowners prioritizing electric convenience and ease of use over heavy-duty power.
The Ryobi RY18PW22A is a cordless 18V ONE+ pressure lance designed for portable cleaning without mains power, delivering 22 bar of pressure and 182 L/h of flow. It features a 3-in-1 adjustable nozzle and a 6m siphon hose, allowing users to draw water from buckets or lakes for on-the-go tasks. While it offers significant power for a battery unit, it is heavier than some competitors and requires manual scrubbing for heavy mud. Professional reviewers praise the Ryobi RY18PW22A as a powerful mobile unit that effectively matches its paper specs of 22 bar and 182 L/h for mud removal.

Professional reviewers, including MBR, praise the Ryobi RY18PW22A as a powerful mobile unit that effectively matches its paper specs of 22 bar and 182 L/h for mud removal. They highlight the ergonomic rubber grip, safety lock, and sturdy lance as positive design elements. However, critics note that the 2.661 kg weight and 88x37cm size make it less maneuverable, and it is not as aggressive as mains washers, requiring brushing for heavy dirt.
Everyday users commonly praise the product for its portability and lack of setup hassle, making it ideal for washing cars, bikes, and patio furniture. The siphon kit is frequently highlighted as a key feature for camping or remote locations. Recurring complaints focus on the heavy weight causing arm fatigue, shorter runtime on smaller batteries, and the need for manual scrubbing for tough jobs, with some users feeling it is underpowered compared to corded units.
