Interested to know if anyone has used the Staun water pressure jet that they advertise in this months 4WD monthly? I am thinking about getting the one I can hook onto my compressor.

Cheers,

Dave.

I can't see how these would have an advantage over a small pressure washer. I'm not knocking any products here, I picked up a small pressure washer for $99 and it has given excellent performance. I like the fact that water is used very efficiently (pressure washer) ie with the wand trigger on/off. I've never used the staun product, but in these times of water restrictions, the staun looks like it may use more water due to the on/off tap and the complication of the compressed air as well. Also you would have the weight of the standard hose (containing the water) and the weight of the air line, I just think in the long term I would get sick of it.

i see your point troy but for those people that already have a compressor its mighty handy as those cheap $99 HIGH PRESSURE CLEANERS dont last long (ive bought 2 already) these staun pressure cleaners a pretty robust and have no moving parts so not much can go wrong.

the attachment that curls back is really usefel for those hard to reach spots too :armsup:

With a Water Tank / Pump and decent Air Compressor on board (or Co2 :D) you can use on the trailer, great for cleaning the mud from rims/wheels lights number plates etc for the ride home

I love my Massojet :)

i have the standard model, without the air comp addition, just plugs straight in to the hose, i have found it great with all the mud, cleans out wheel arches well, under sills and chassis without gettin on your knees,

doesn't the standard one (no comp) have the curled bit for getting under guards etc easier, and the comp one is straighter making easier on panels ????

i'm thinking of getting standard one because i've already got pressure cleaner. its bloody good for getting mud etc out, but because is high pressure leaves fine silt like dirt everywhere that i got to use normal hose to get rid off.

The Air and Water gun Deluxe has the short straight (panels) and the bent section for underbody / chassis

Air and Water Gun has only the straight Section

The hose only massojet comes in two lengths, 600mm 900mm..

I have the Air and Water Deluxe, and generally use it only with the hose, no compressor (as i have a $149 Kaercher)
