Cordless pressure washers are everywhere in ads right now, often with big promises. This page sticks to what PowerBlast actually is, what you get, what it costs and — just as important — what it isn't built to do.
PowerBlast at a glance
| What it is | A handheld, battery-powered pressure washer gun |
| Power | Rechargeable lithium-ion battery (charger included) — no outlet needed while you work |
| Water source | A bucket, barrel or tank through the inlet hose with filter, or an outdoor faucet |
| Nozzle | Multi-pattern: straight jet, fan and shower |
| In the box | Washer gun, battery, charger, extension wand, nozzle, foam bottle, inlet hose with filter, user manual |
| Price | $69.99 for one kit, less per kit in 2- and 3-kit bundles |
| Guarantee | 30-day money-back guarantee |
How it works
The pump, motor and battery are built into the gun. Drop the filter end of the inlet hose into a bucket of clean water (or connect it to a faucet), pick a spray pattern and pull the trigger. Because it doesn't need an outlet, you can use it in a parking space, at a campsite or at the far end of the yard.
What it's good at
- Washing cars, motorcycles and bikes — use the foam bottle for a pre-wash
- Rinsing patio furniture, planters, garden tools and BBQ grills
- Muddy boots, camping gear, kayaks and pet kennels
- Light dirt, pollen and moss on patios and paths
What it isn't built for
A compact cordless washer doesn't have the output of a large gas or corded machine. It won't strip paint, remove deep oil stains from concrete or clean a whole driveway in one go. It isn't for hot water, bleach, solvents or flammable liquids — use cool, clean water and mild car shampoo only.
How much does it cost?
| Bundle | Total | Per kit |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kit | $69.99 | $69.99 |
| 2 kits | $129.98 | $64.99 |
| 3 kits | $179.97 | $59.99 |

Safety first
Wear eye protection, never point the spray at people, animals, electrical outlets or wiring, and keep a safe distance from car paint and soft wood. Read our pressure washer safety tips before the first use.
Our take
PowerBlast makes sense if you want quick, outlet-free cleaning for cars, bikes and outdoor gear. If your main job is blasting stains out of a big concrete driveway, a larger corded or gas machine is the better tool.
