I'm a master detailer 16 years of experience I will be using this tool with bottle adapter to spot clean truck frames It's a perfect option if I Only get one minute with a 2 litter jug of water that would work great when Preparing a frame for paint
The 2L bottle attachment is perfect when using the misting kit to spray high concentrate solutions on. Covers an area quickly, so volume isn’t a problem.
I got this tool to clean patio furniture without having to lug out my AC power washer. The power seems great for small tasks. I enlarged the opening of a big laundry detergent bottle (maybe 2 gallons) and use that in place of the bottle. The bottle can be usable to clean off one piece of furniture at a lower power setting, but the two gallons tub works well for me. I thought of using the squeegee for cleaning ground mount solar panels, but not sure I want to use any pressure on that. The handheld extension seems like it might be the best for me. I was always using the extension wand, but you helped me to understand that it might be easier not to use it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these tools.
I've got all the accessories you showed other than the squeegee, because they have a limited life span if used a lot (or left out in the sun), and there are far better stand-alone squeegees out there. For windows, I'd use the sprayer with an appropriate nozzle attacked to the flexible wand (or wand and extension combo). I was surprised about how good the Foamer was--I've got a 'better' one for my larger pressure washer, but it's a pain to set it all up for just a single car wash, and it's not noticeably better than the one shown here. Its bottle usually holds enough for 2 large cars (with me transferring the excess to a separate, less leaky, container for storage), and I use a small funnel to pour into the container. What you failed to mention is using the brush with the wand, and that does make the brush a whole lot more useful.
One of the channels, the guy loved the bottle most of all. He wasn't always doing a full pressure wash. It was wash off a tool after doing gardening or wash off the door mat. He showed that it was just barely enough water for a doormat or for shoes. But he didn't have to get water because he hung his machine with water in the bottle.
The chemical sprayer kit is one you did not show... It is the kit you would use for a 2 liter bottle or with a gallon of Roundup weed killer or Ortho bug spray containers, utilizing the included large mouth container cap adapter for yard spraying. A suggestion... cutting the time to 10 Minutes or less in multiple videos for each accessory. Thanks as always for your content.
I got my 40v and love it. I made mine into normal quick disconnect instead of that Ryobi one though. Will try that extension hose for sure! Thanks for the demonstration.
Here is an idea, connect the brush to the 6 foot hose and then you can use it just like the squeegee. I am sure you would have come up with that sooner or later after trashing it here on the video…the extra quick connects are used on other equipment…the end going away from the machine can be attached to a number of non ryobi things as the other end is the same as a hose end….
I love your videos and I Love Ryobi tools but I personally think you should use and understand the workings of these new attachments and tools before you try and demonstrate or review them for us,
Another channel said that there is an attachment to attach to gallon-sized bottles, like distilled water bottles. For when you are on the road, that seems like it would be fabulous.
I hope you guys are well-compensated for this”how to” video on all the attachments cause Ryobi just throws all these attachments in the box w/ little to no explanations on best uses and connection options. When faced with small jobs like removing bird poop or bug splatter off my car, the increased portability provided by these attachments will make the difference between getting the job done vs. not pulling out my full-sized pressure washer due to inconvenience and time.
I bought one a few months ago and I was so thrilled with it because it was perfect for washing the winter salt of my car using a bucket of soapy water. But it broke (motor seized) after just three uses. It's too cheaply made. The motor whines for a minute before it managed to suck the water up the hose. I returned it and didn't dare try another one. Buyer beware! Epic Fail!
I had the same problem, but then I saw you have to screw the connection piece clockwise to tighten it. It will come loose & the machine is basically trying to suck water out of a broken straw.
You can use bottle wash to get rid of bird crap. No need to get the hose out and it will cut through it. Also some chemical or salt could be washed off your vehicles.
Try taking the wand off the power-head when you use the flexible wand. I also sometimes use the nozzles attached directly to the power-head. I bought the new kit which comes with two of those accessories (brush and wand) plus an extra wand and nozzles.
You would use the 2 liter for chemical/cleaning/liquid waxing and misting and for other reasons on low. Super multipurpose product. Maybe you guys could make another video for other purposes for it. Thanks.
I have a lot of Ryobi tools and I love most of them. The biggest waste of money I have thrown away is when I get into their cleaning products. The hand held power washer is a waste of time - my contractors hose with a good nozzle blasts far harder than either one of them. And while I loved the power scrubber (not shown in today's video but I am sure you know what I mean) enough to buy a new one when the first one broke - there is a major design flaw in them where the triangle shape plastic lock tabs eventually wear down with use - when that happens the tool is useless. The small scrubber is just a pathetic little joke so even though I am a Ryobi fan - their cleaning stuff is lacking big time.
I have seen people use the bottle as their daily go-to just for things like getting bird poo off of their car or rinsing their shoes before getting in their car after a muddy hike.
Maybe you can add a solution in the 2L bottle, spray on low for low pressure soak. Come back & Power Rinse with regular water supply. (Ryobi's video showed using this set up to wash a dog) That Brush can connect to that Hose as demonstrated in Ryobi's Demo Vid!
Camping,washing dishes,canoes,cleaning fish,you may own a trillion dollar company and your at the top of the largest sky scraper in the world,come to find out can't get water pumped that high,pay a little Xtra money to clean the out side of the windows
I think you should attach the brush to the flexible hose.

How did you never try putting the brush on the extension hose?! And use the former with it?
I've got all the accessories you showed other than the squeegee, because they have a limited life span if used a lot (or left out in the sun), and there are far better stand-alone squeegees out there.

thanks for the comment
Can you share how exactly you did that?
Here is an idea, connect the brush to the 6 foot hose and then you can use it just like the squeegee. I am sure you would have come up with that sooner or later after trashing it here on the video…the extra quick connects are used on other equipment…the end going away from the machine can be attached to a number of non ryobi things as the other end is the same as a hose end….

How can I attach my foam cannon that is not from the ryobi brand
2 liter bottle, use for quickly removing bird crap off windows or spots on vehicle, as my yard has lots of trees that we park under
I think the brush would work well with the extension hose
Agreed
I like the flexible extension,I bought it for cleaning behind air conditioning coils close to a wall
I'd like to see the foamer and the shower head attachments in action for cleaning a pet.
For the next video read the brochures that are included and be prepare for the presentation.
Another channel said that there is an attachment to attach to gallon-sized bottles, like distilled water bottles. For when you are on the road, that seems like it would be fabulous.
Thanks for the review! I wonder if there is a way to use the brush screw on quick-connect as an adapter for regular pressure washer tips?

Very helpful I got to get that pressure washer 👍🏾
The 2 liter/gallon connector is for going to wash something small thats far away. i use it to clean tools on jobsites
I used the pressure washer to take showers when the power goes out. You could also use it for camping showers.

Good ideas

Home depot has the 6' wand on clearance for $11

Does the brush connect to the end of the hose like the squeegee?
Yes
I have seen people use the bottle as their daily go-to just for things like getting bird poo off of their car or rinsing their shoes before getting in their car after a muddy hike.
For me, the bottle is for dog's muddy paws after he went in the river on a hike and before I let him in the car.
when will all of them be available in Australia.
Did you try adding the brush to the hose?
It would be nice if the on switch could lock on.
The 2L bottle will be perfect for my mountain bike wash down before I throw it in the back of the car after a muddy ride
Is that the Ryobi 40V 525 CFM Blower?
3x Motocross beeing washed by 3x cordless powerwasher... I won't see anything more american today xD
haha its a good life!
Maybe you can add a solution in the 2L bottle, spray on low for low pressure soak. Come back & Power Rinse with regular water supply.
(Ryobi's video showed using this set up to wash a dog)
That Brush can connect to that Hose as demonstrated in Ryobi's Demo Vid!
Great thinking,you just added a new tool,w/o adding a new tool that you didn't have to buy, thx,I'm giving it a try
Doesn't work, it doesn't suds up
Am I the only one here thinking, check the manual before you post a video?
You can lock the trigger 😂
Carry extra water bottles
The brush is supposed to hook up to the 6’ hose
Camping,washing dishes,canoes,cleaning fish,you may own a trillion dollar company and your at the top of the largest sky scraper in the world,come to find out can't get water pumped that high,pay a little Xtra money to clean the out side of the windows
This video is giving me a headache. Super high color sat and blurry
check the settings on your device. looks good on this Apple MacBook Pro
Spot Car Bird shit cleaner…. Not a proper wash… just a small clean to get off bird shit before it eats into your paint
Maybe figure it out before making the video.
naw that is part of it
