Higher flow is better for initial dirt removal and rinsing. I switched from a 1700/1.2 Greenworks unit to a 1200/1.8gpm unit and it is much better. Produces more foam, too if using foam cannon.

This Ryobi kit is a budget-friendly high flow pressure washer aimed at auto detailing, where the 1.8 GPM output helps with rinsing, dirt removal, and foam cannon performance. The included foam blaster is the main automotive advantage, and the price looks strong versus what it has sold for elsewhere. The hose and gun are the weak points, with the hose described as stiff and hard to store. Reliability concerns also come up, including oil leaks and Ryobi pressure washer durability worries, so it suits light to moderate detailing more than bigger jobs.

Common Questions (4)

The included hose is stiff and hard to wrap or store, and the gun/hose setup is described as underwhelming compared with other detailing kits. Common upgrades include a Flexzilla or Uberflex hose and a better gun or foam cannon.

Yes. The 1.8 GPM flow helps with initial dirt removal and rinsing, and it produces more foam when paired with a foam cannon or upgraded foam blaster. It is aimed at automotive cleaning, but it is still relatively weak for bigger jobs compared with gas washers.

Yes. One buyer paid $150 for the unit without the soap refill, and another noted it was hard to find in stock at MSRP when it first launched. The current $139 price with the 16 oz detergent refill is therefore favorable.
Lorenzor champ305 jaws8241 snak3y3z1001
It can work well for detailing, but reliability concerns are real: one report says two units started leaking oil by month 4, while another 1.2 GPM Ryobi ran for 5 years with only a hose replacement. That makes it a decent value buy, but not a guaranteed long-life machine.

I have this and it's great because of the 1.8gpm flow rate others have mentioned. I'm sure this is the first time this unit is on sale as I bought mine last year when this model first came out and it was hard to get (very popular in the detailing community because it was by far the cheapest high-flow pressure washer).
That said, Ryobi has a terrible reputation for their pressure washer reliability so be aware.
Also, Greenworks has a new high-flow unit that just came out: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Greenwor...BGEALw_wcB

Why not just use the Ryobi 40V pressure washer that adjusts to 2000, 1500, and 1000 psi settings? Better all around pressure washer.

How much?

I have had this for about a year it works well for auto detailing with the higher flow rate. The hose thats included isnt great its too stiff and difficult to wrap and store. Any recommandtions on a better replacement hose? Also a quick connect on the hose would be a nice upgrade.

Product Description:	The RYOBI 1.8 GPM Automotive High Flow Pressure Washer is ideal for automotive professionals and car enthusiasts. With a design that prioritizes an increased water flow of 1.8 GPM, this high-performance pressure washer achieves a deeper more effective clean than other models. The shortened design of the stubby trigger handle provides less vibration than a standard trigger handle, creating a comfortable one-handed experience while also allowing you to stand closer to your vehicle. The specialized automotive nozzles can attach directly to the trigger handle and feature a dome design and protective overmold enhancing durability and precision. The 15° nozzle offers a concentrated spray for tough stains, the 25° for general cleaning, and the 40° for a gentle rinse. The included foamer delivers thick soap to clean dirt and grime effectively. The included 40' hose is 2X longer than a standard hose, making it easier to reach around your vehicle without constantly moving the pressure washer. This pressure washer is also great for cleaning patio furniture, driveways, and other outdoor tasks, making it a versatile addition to your collection. Additionally, the RYOBI Foam Blaster Detergent soap refill is best used for removing dirt, grease, oil, grime, road film and stains caused by algae, mold, and mildew. This product is formulated for use on vinyl, wood, brick, stucco, concrete, cement, asphalt, fiberglass, tile, stone, aggregate, metal, plastics and vehicles.
