- Hello and wellcome.Today i got this Wilks Usa RX 550i electric pressure washer for review.
Slightly disapointed on patio cleaner.
Compared to other electric pressure washers thi was tricky to use due to the lack of push and twist attachments.Could not get foam spray to work.
Good points. Great reach and gutter cleaner performed very well.

I've not done loads of power washing but used to have a Titan. It was good for a cheap unit it died. Then got a k2 which is ok for a small unit.
I think the scrubber is meant for patios with decking. Here in Australia, most new decking is made with composite material that can be badly damaged with very high pressure, probably the same in America. I haven't used my scrubber yet, but i thik it would be a nice soft wash for my patio deck.
That’s so much for this video
Titan seems to work best up to yet on the ground, from your tests mate.
In Australia this is the exact same but it’s called Jet-USA on the front so now I have seen this with 2 other names but exact same machine.
Just some info. based on experience doing surface and pressure cleaning as part of the services my business provides, not "hating" at all.
The idea of the surface cleaner is not to scrub the surface, and move it slower (any type) and you'll get a better result. My 5000psi unit wouldn't clean concrete very well with a surface cleaner moved at your speed.
Wand cleaning on concrete, 25 degree works best, but there is a "sweet spot" for each machine in the distance the tip is from the surface, I have this machine and a 5000psi petrol unit, the Wands are too short for that to be comfortable when you're 6 foot tall, I run a short extension so I can stand upright while having the tip the appropriate distance from the surface.
Give those things a try.
I bought one to clean a 20yr old motorhome that had not been cleaned on roof for perhaps 10yrs. It made the roof look like new, removed the black spots and verdigree, unbelievably good. Choice of nozzles great. A note on video, a pressure washer can only do so much, you do need the right cleaning solutions on the job too!!
Thanks.Thats fantastic.For some reason my cleaning solution was not spraing at all.Do you know what could be the issue?Thanks.
@@frankluxobzor7393 I used a separate pump and spray to apply mine. Yes the solution was not coming out of mine either, I took the nozzle off and let it run then the cleaning solution came through the line 👍 then used biggest nozzle to apply
262 bar I never seen machine like this one
Buy an adapter to go to from m22 to 1/4 inch female npt, make a review on sewer jetting with hydro jetter hose and nozzle.
Could you possibly look in the casing and show a video of what pump is inside? I’m tempted to buy one but want to know if I could replace the pump if necessary, cheers
Hello sorry i dont have acess to this pressure washer as this one was borrowed for this video.
@@frankluxobzor7393 no problem, thanks for the response !
Why this machine doesn't come with a spray bottle?
Patio cleaners are designed to be used from side to side pal, the angular hinge is just for if you’re working on a slope, that’s why it kept tipping when you pulled it back towards you
Thank you.
Of course
Hello wanted to check , how does the detergent work, I made it full but it doesn’t goes mix with the water, thanks
Hi.I had the same issue whilst filming this video.You wil notice in 2nd half of this video.It clogs up inside i guess because soap was left in over long period of time.Shame on this issue.
I also can’t work out how to make the detergent come out.?
You didn't show where to connect water main supply and that's what I wanted to know 😮
Can you attach a dirt blaster as you need that to remove the plants etc? Do they do that sort of lancet?
Hi i need to ask.Wil get back to you
Hi i did not find any named dirt blasters for this model specificaly at this moment.
Hi, I’ve bought this washer and twice when I’ve got it out of the box, the unit is covered in a yellow liquid/lubricant. Is this right?
Hi.No deffinetly not.
All I want to know will this wash be able to be barrel feed for water or is it water mains only
Hi.This is not for barrel.
Hello I have one of these machines and I have lost the manual. I cannot figure out how to change the lances. I am using the one that has the rotating spray but I don’t see how to change to the lance that uses the coloured tips or the patio cleaner. I must be overlooking something. 😳
The lances screw on. Halfway down there will be a connector that you unscrew.
@@Justprint88 see my Link for the manual
Try the t 7 plus with karcher adapter
Is there anywhere to get parts for the 550i, my patio cleaner only part is split,
My only guess is ebay.
@@frankluxobzor7393 tried it, tnx
I can't understand why the path wasn't being cleaned because it seemed to be producing a lot of pressure and flow. Weird.
If that dirt has been there floor ages you need an industrial machine I believe. Or rub chemicals first
He’s also using it extremely fast back and forth, it’s not a broom
You are welcome to check my other pressure washer reviews.I am using same speed.
@@frankluxobzor7393 yes I will take a look, I only mention because it’s designed for side to side and normally I have to use really slow with pressure washer 😂
I have got one and it has been nothing but headache...leaks from lancer, lack of parts, poor quality stops and die due to air lock etc etc...
will the round patio cleaner work on the roof tiles?
No it will only work on flat surfaces
Good honest review , was going to buy one until I saw your review . Thi g looks good but in reality performs absolutely crap doesn't take anything of with the scrubber and pressure jet is mediocre
Think you need to look at the user rather than the machine
@@lewisirving5421 100% 🤡
All the accessories make it too expensive for me
f me powerfull the floor cleaner looked crap
Hi.Yes i was little disapointed.
Cant things properly on this viedeo
Thanks for your review, i definitely won't be buying it it's rubbish,
I wouldn’t buy Wilkes full stop petrol or electric ⚡️ had 3 of there machines all rubbish.!😡
Surely if the first one was rubbish you wouldn’t buy another…after all theres 100s makes to choose from
Very expensive pressure wash
Yes.Very.
@@frankluxobzor7393 have review level entry pressure wash
