    Amazing what a bit of competition can do.

        • @vjknight:

          They had heaps better deals/sales when they were not in closing down mode.

      Yep, they beat the Aldi washer by $1.

      This, but also, u will more than likely actually get stock of this and be able to purchase. Aldi is like an apple event. Camp out the night before for opening -_-

  • Damn I could buy 4 of these for the price of the Gerni from SCA.

    • … that potentially uses the same generic plastic pump assembly anyway :)

      • +3

        Gerni uses aluminium pump.

        • Yeah nice… I should've just said 'generic pump assembly' as I assume most of these cheapies just run similar internals… no that there's anything wrong with that of course! I've had a $99 Karcher for many years and it's still going strong :)

      I'd support ALDI - Bunnings would never do this otherwise.

      • +14

        The problem is that most people (me included) would prefer Bunnings availability and most likely superior warranty, e.g. on the spot swap.
        Shame about Masters indeed even though their normal prices were always higher than Bunnings for stuff I always wanted/needed.

  • how good is the pressure on this? can it really clean my concrete and my deck?

    • +2

      The ALDI one is better right?

      Working pressure: 1522.5psi/70bar
      Flow rate: 6.2L/min
      1400W
      Working flow: 5L/min
      Max. flow: 6.2L/min

      • I'd take any spec on these with a large pinch of salt. As long as the two washers are within 20% of each other they're likely to be indistinguishable in real performance.

        As a previous poster states, many of the internal components are likely to be similar.

        • +3

          Ozito has a plastic pump, whereas the Aldi version has aluminium pump.. so not quite the same.
          I think I will rather wait and get the Aldi version.

          @luminair:ally pumps will corrode in time the plastic will not

    • +14

      I have a cheap plastic one and a petrol one. Main use is cleaning the grime off brick paving.

      The plastic one can clean perfectly well, but you have to use a really tiny stream so it takes much longer.
      The petrol one can clean with a wider stream. But you're still not going to be able to clean a whole brick width at once unless you get a really expensive one.

      I have this model and bought it specifically to clean my concrete slab and pavers.
      I was lured in by the patio cleaner attachment but realistically this is not great at cleaning unsealed concrete that has a lot of crap baked into it.
      The normal adjustable wand will do the job, but it requires a lot of time and patience.

      I paid about $90 for mine around 1 year ago but for $48 it's well worth it.

  • Will this be able to effectively clean windows on 2nd level of house? I'm guessing at this price point maybe not…

      Of course. Just use it on a step ladder. 100% safe.

    You know what would be nice Bunnings?

    Click and effing collect. How hard could it be.

    Will still get one, but not happily.

    • It would be hard. Got to constantly do inventory stock check just to make sure you have one available for every single Bunnings store

      • +11

        Software has been doing that for ages. No one has to sit in front of a computer and manually update stock levels.

        • +61

          @Scab: lol

        • +1

          So what happens when 20 people click and collect the washer, and 20 people walk in store and grab the last 20 washers from the floor? Will Bunnings need one person in every store dedicated to immediately pulling store stock off the floor the moment someone clicks buy on the website?

        • +3

          @Scab:

          To be fair, if he is from Centrelink, chances are an IT project to manage anything simple like inventory levels will cost $17b and still won't work properly. ;)

          @eug:

          Gee, I dunno, maybe they could run it the way every other store does.

          Pay, it gets picked, goes off the floor, gets picked up.

          You get a confirmation or apology email once picking has been completed.

          Rocket science this is not.

          @eug: As with EVERY other store doing click and collect, confirm the order after its been processed before notifying the customer.

          If every other enterprise can, they can.

        • @eug: Hmm! The same way that all other businesses who have C&C option do it?

        • +1

          @MorriJ: Clearly none of you guys were around when Masters and DSE were doing it with cheap deals like this. C&C works fine for regular items. It didn't work with cheap deals. Remember that this thread is specifically talking about this cheap washer.

        • @MorriJ:

          As with EVERY other store doing click and collect, confirm the order after its been processed before notifying the customer.

          Right, then when the customer gets the inevitable message 4 hours later saying the item is no longer available because 20 other ozb'ers walked in and bought them all before the staff could retrieve them off the floor, they'll end up spewing and complaining on OzB about how their C&C is useless.

          If every other enterprise can, they can.

          Yeah, look at how DSE, Masters, and OW fared. It works fine for normal everyday items, but when it comes to good deals like this, it's a lot more hit-and-miss.

          If it's a really good deal, c&c has no chance with how it has been implemented so far. Stores will need to reserve bargain stock for C&C purchases out the back or put on a dedicated staff member to retrieve stock off the floor immediately if they want to avoid disappointed customers.

      • Masters did it.

        • +4

          Worked out marvelously for them

        • Yh click & forget

        On the contrary, keeping stock for stuff like this easy.
        Big bulky items, hard to steal, hard to lose, easy to count and it's not like they sell them by the masses on a daily basis either.

        Stock is automatically updated on their database when it's sold, received or damaged. How do you think they know when to order more, and how many to order?

        They only need to do a manual stock count every once in a while to ensure the data is correct (because things do get stolen/go 'missing'). And that's as easy as scanning the barcode counting the 10 boxes on the shelf, and the 12 you have out the back and adjusting the count to 22.

        • and it's not like they sell them by the masses on a daily basis either.

          For regular everyday items sure. But we're talking about deals like this.

        • +1

          The problem with bunnings is that there is no "out the back". 10 items in stock, 10 items sell online. 1 guy walks into warehouse and takes an item off the shelf. Check out staff tells guy "oh sorry, we're out of stock, I can't sell you one of these". That would be a customer service nightmare when the customer can clearly see a bunch on the shelf and is standing there with cash in hand.

      it's in the pipeline.

    • Would you be one of those clients, who drives to the timber pickup, to buy a roll of sticky tape ? Hate when that happens. Bunnings Chatswood is such a bad place because of all this lazy people. I've switched to Belrose if I need to buy timber, even if it's quite a bit further.

    • Depends on how much of their business comes from these sorts of shoppers. I always see plenty of tradies picking up supplies on the run and similarly always mention "oh good there's a Bunnings/Mitre10/etc near here".

      Click and collect won't work if everyone pre-buys everything from the shop.

    Really lol, its like bunnings is watching ozbargain comments.

    • +1

      They are :)

  • Damn makes the decision a bit harder. Was going to pick the ALDI one up for washing the car. Mitch difference?

    • Might make it easier to wash your car but be careful as you might end up taking paint off or at least damaging the coat over time

      • 1450psi is no where near power enough to cause clearcoat issues. Probably need to get above 2500psi before needing to worry about possible damage.

        Just to give you an idea many professional detailers go to pressure washer is the a Kranzle with 2300psi/160bar

    • +5

      How do we quantify the difference of Mitch? Do we have any measurements of Mitch? Weight? Height?

    • I am waiting for the Aldi version, the aluminium pump sounds better quality.

    • Noting the previous replies I have a similar spec karcher washer. The normal nozzle is perfectly fine on the car and other painted surfaces even at max pressure
      However I have another thin nozzle that spins around. You do not want to point that at any paint that you like. It has stripped paint off several things that I accidentally pointed it at. Though car paint is tougher than most other painted surfaces.

    which one is better? this one seems to have better warranty

    • Aldi one seems to have aluminium pump v plastic pump for Bunnings Ozito.What is Aldi warranty?

      • Ozito is pretty much guaranteed to be rubbish.

      • Even aluminium pumps usually have plastics parts now days. A cheap pump is a cheap pump regardless of its material construction

        I previously went Ozito because of the warranty. I don't like the trigger gun. It's too stiff and could cause hand issues under long use, no idea if the ALDI one is any better

        • Whatever you use if you're going to clean something like paving you're going to want a zip tie or similar to hold the trigger.

    • +6

      Based on form, Aldi stock levels will mean the Ozito will be the only choice for most.

  • Very nice!

  • is using pressure cleaner safe for car's paint?

    • I used to use more powerful karcher. No issues for a couple of years of using.
      This one is not powerful enough to break it.

    • Yes. Used this one on my car with no issues.

    • Depends on age of paint

    • Just don’t concentrate the stream too much, should fine

    • They are very weak and wont damage car paint…

      Seems to sit nicely on the middle - low end. So quite safe.
