Just noticed a group buy on eBay starting today for a Bosch Pressure Washer AQT 33-10 - 1450PSI from Supercheap for $99 with free delivery. Looks like there is a limit of 400 and the deal runs till the 24th.
Edit- Seems confirmed that the 15% off code also works on this purchase! Use COLLECT15 at checkout!

I have this washer and it still running strong after 3 years
Thanks mate.
Go with the Gerni. I went through 2 Bosch AquaTac 110s having endless pump slowdowns and nozzle failures with just infrequent domestic use. The next warranty unit eventually failed on the inlet side, while not even running, from just the pressure from the garden hose! 'Muck plastic' housing had 'Made in Italy' on it, surprisingly. Apparently it only needed a metal piston and/or cylinder to qualify for a 'metal' pump. Bosch had stopped importing, so no parts or even advice. Bought a Gerni (130?) from SCA and it runs rings around the Bosch. Larger, quieter and a pleasure to use. Doesn't stop to cool down, easy-swap nozzles keep working and the pump hasn't blown its casing.
It fits Karcher accessories, which is good. And all-metal pump.
Hi, would anybody comment on the noise level of the machine? Just wish it not to be as loud as a standard lawn mower… Thanks
Straight from the Bosch website;
The A-rated noise level of the power tool is typically as follows: Sound pressure level 85 dB(A); Sound power level 97 dB(A). Uncertainty K= 3 dB.
Maybe someone can help break that down to laymans terms?
Try this,
http://www.sengpielaudio.com/TableOfSoundPressureLevels.htm
It's rated between a diesel truck from 10m away and a disco speaker from 1m away.
I consider both of these sound volumes fairly loud, but not unbearable for my hearing.
uncertainty k=3dB….so it is 85dB…but can be twice as loud (88dB)
If you stand next to it talking to someone you would definitely need to raise your voice.
To be on the safe side…hearing protection is best to be worn with anything over 80dB
All machines generate sound when they are in operation. The propagated sound waves cause small changes in the ambient air pressure while traveling. A sound source produces sound power and this generates a sound pressure fluctuation in the air. Sound power is the cause of this, whereas sound pressure is the effect.
To put it more simply, what we hear is sound pressure, but this sound pressure is caused by the sound power of the emitting sound source.
The dial tone of a telephone is 80 dB, inside a car in city traffic is about 85, the same as this machine.
Anything over 80dB will damage your hearing. If you use it for work, is mandatory to wear hearing protection.
it's completely quiet when it's off.
Brings it down to $84.15 with collect15 code
No click and collect on this one so no stacking the 15% off code
The Code applies successfully though…….
it does… plus cashrewards too.
But i want the plus votes haha
Picked one up even though I was a bit hesitant after reading the reviews at amazon.in which seemed to be missing parts.
Seems a good deal with the 15% code!
Does anyone know if this can be used with karcher telescopic lance? I've got some part of my house that's pretty unreachable.
Here's the link to the lance:

Would the Karcher K2.090 Pressure Washer - 1600 PSI be a better buy for $98 (less click & collect and cashrewards)?
Dont waste your money on this. Had one before and returned it. Its of very poor quality. Get this instead for an extra $40 from bunnings http://www.bunnings.com.au/gerni-1-4kw-classic-110-4-high-pr…
Can someone tell me how this item compared to this one at Master? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-AR-Blue-Clean-Pressure-Washer…
(was $89, they increased to $99)
No wheels dont bother. Spend the extra $40 and get original gerni from bunnings http://www.bunnings.com.au/gerni-1-4kw-classic-110-4-high-pr…
I had this bosch one before and now i have this gerni and this is so much better.
I think https://www.masters.com.au/product/101022111/bosch-pressure-… is a better deal with fresh10 code.
Works out to be $126 for more powerful machine with car kit.
Depends on where you live though. Burnside store has em, not sure about others
edit: used click & collect. think there's extra for shipped.
Do you know if this comes with a karcher adapter for accessories??
I got the Karcher 1.4 from Bunnings which was on sale last month. Was a bit disappointed…thought I would be able to clean my gutters with it but the pressure is too weak.
I think this unit has plastic pump instead of alloy which is not long lasting.
says all-metal pumps in the description
Shucks… Just bought myself a worx from Masters. Same specs.
Hi If i buy this as a present for my father does anyone know if you can return if he does not like? Thanks.
If anyone is interested, this is a bargain:

Those who purchased this bosch from SCA.. the karcher drain kit should fit this bosch with the provided karcher attachment?
I purchase the 35-12 from masters last week and rather than importing the bosch drain kit from amazon.de i would rather buy this http://www.bunnings.com.au/karcher-pipe-cleaning-kit-high-pr…
I think it will work just by looking at the pictures..??
Confirming that COLLECT15 actually resulted in delivery by courier…
and Cashrewards was pre-COLLECT15.. so the full $99.
Has anyone received this yet, can someone post a photo of the karcher attachment they received?
My karcher attachment was missing from the box. Anyone receive theirs?
Now that you mention it mine was missing too. How do we go about getting it replaced?
supercheap uses the one of worst courier - couriersplease. I still haven't received my item yet and keep delaying the delivery. I shouldn't have bought this if I knew they use this courier… No more supercheap from online for me.
Is it any good
