Cleaning up outdoors this Summer with the Bosch DIY AQT Pressure Washer Range

I have a weatherboard house and it gets very cobwebby and dusty. I am a gun at using a pressure washer and wouldn’t be without one. They are the magic cleaners for anything outside! Actually, I have to fight my 14 year old son for it because he thinks he is the boss of anything pressure-washing!

Recently I was lucky enough to receive a Bosch DIY AQT Pressure Washer to review (it’s the AQT 37-13+) and this is has become my new favourite household item. Out with the old and in with the new!

The back verandah and windows needed a good spray down. I took off all the screens, put my headphones in and got to work hosing everything in sight. Windows, couches, rugs, and screens…

Ewww look at the muck coming off!

It’s so easy and convenient. It’s a sturdy little fella which moves around effortlessly. There are a few attachments too – so whether you’re just spraying, or you need something more heavy duty, you can snap in a brush, or put on a patio tool.

It’s also got a 3-in-1 nozzle so you can be direct, or less direct with the spray depending on what you’re doing.

The car also gets a good clean because it’s so easy to use. It’s got an an auto-stop function to ensure energy efficiency so we don’t waste water moving around the house from job to job.

When we’re done the pressure washer has an easy-fold handle for simple mobility and space-saving storage so it’s not taking up space in our garage or laying sprawled out all over the place.

    I don’t love cleaning around the bbq area but living in QLD it gets a lot of use. It seems to be a magnet for gunk, dust and cobwebs. How easy would this little number make that despised job though?!

  • Nerida

    We have an old Queenslander which currently means we have “air conditioning” gaps in the floorboards which allows the air in (lovely in summer) but also the dust and dirt from under the house. I’d love to be able to get under the house clean with out sweeping it up and hence pushing the dust clouds into the house!

  • Melissa

    I would LOVE this high pressure cleaner to do my most hated chore of cleaning our outdoor tiles. We live in red dirt and have 2 boxer furbabies that leave red footprints all over the tiles. Scrubbing these tiles is such a long tedious task and a pressure cleaner would be amazing!!!!

  • Jess

    We have a dark grey coloured deck area that our dogs like to trample muddy paw prints across. I would love to be able to spray that away along with all the dust and dirt that collects on our windows instead of using a mop or hose over and over!

  • Chloe Davis

    I hate windows and sticky cobwebs!
    But most of all I hate spending so much money to wash the car with a high pressure hose with all those chemicals! Cannot be good for the paint work!

  • claire

    Windows and gutters! Two jobs which often get neglected but would be so much easier with a pressure cleaner! The water saving impresses me too, trying to save every do here in Tassie with all the horrible bush fires we still have burning

  • Karen

    Just what we need, seriously! Our 12 year old dog keeps vomiting on our less than a year old concrete and its staining it badly… Nothing grosser than trying to keep that clean on top of all the red dust from the building going on around us especially on the white window frames. A fab pressure washer would help solve so many problems and help keep my new house looking new and vomit stain/red dust free!

    Hi Katrina, one of my least favourite jobs is cleaning outside especially all the dust on the window sills and weatherboards. But what I really hate is cleaning grubby fingerprints off windows … please tell me this product helps with that! Vx

  • Ros

    Cleaning my windows and screens! YUCK! It’s the job around the house that is my least favourite, but I have to do them constantly.
    To sit back, hot and exhausted, with every muscle in my body aching after doing them all by hand makes it all worthwhile when I can look out of my home through sparkling clean windows. The feeling of accomplishment is overwhelming.
    I would be so thankful if I could win a Bosch AQT Pressure Washer to make my job sooo much easier!

    I hate cleaning outside windows where I have to remove flyscreens. I’m sure it dates back to the time I sliced my hand open trying to get a flyscreen back in place – I still have a scar to remind me how much I dislike this job. It’s a pity, because my windows are looking dreadful at the moment!

  • Jen

    I’d love one of these so I can help my Dad clean his house. His neighbours have never put a yard in, so his beautiful white weatherboard house gets caked in dust from their yard! He also have a lovely outdoor deck that he never uses because it is covered in dust. I’d love to be able to surprise him with this to help him keep his house clean, and make his life just a little easier!!

  • Nyree Thomas

    I have lived in my house for 10 years and never cleaned the outdoor pavers or the windows/screens! Every day I look at them and think one day soon I will be motivated – that day has never come! The day I win this it may just arrive!!!

  • Emma

    Would absolutely LOVE one!!! I live on a farm in a 1920s pise home. I’m sick of the dirt, spider webs and birds leaving their mark to the extent Im reluctant to put furniture on the front verandah because I’d have to constantly clean it!! My husband tells me we have one but I never seem to see it ???? Would love one of these which I’m sure would make him jealous and I can say “don’t even think about it, that’s mine!!”…and I might be able to get that furniture for the verandah after all!!

  • Michelle - Jarrah Jungle

    I hate cleaning the windows, who am I kidding I never clean the windows! But with this pressure washer I could make my Mr clean the windows!!

  • Claire

    Winning the pressure washer would be a dream. I hate cleaning our fences but I equally hate all the spiders that have made it a home. The washer would make cleaning them a breeze!

  • Sarah Nicholls

    I hate cleaning windows! We live in red dirt country and that shit is hard to clean. Happen to badly need a pressure washer, the patio roof, deck, concrete… the lot would cop it if I had one of those beauties.

  • Maureen

    I have a weatherboard house too! I don’t mind washing down the house, especially on a hot day, and washing the windows is ok too but my current pressure washer was bought early in the last drought and just doesn’t cut it when washing down the patio. Somehow the concrete pavers love to cling on to the dirt so I am constantly battling to keep them clean. I HATE clening those pavers!

  • Amy

    I HATE cleaning the tracks of the sliding doors (on the ouside). Being in a new development with dust everywhere (inside and out), one of these would blast it all away in a second! It would also come in handy around our ‘ hot smoker’ area where the hubby spills ash EVERY TIME he lights it up!

  • JenKFromThaBlock

    I love being outdoors! As much as the raking up the leaves, sweeping the back cement so the kids can play basketball and hosing the mud off our backyard brick wall caused by our gorgeous baby Boxer Pup who loves jumping on it when he gets excited… I would have to say, other then all those beautiful outdoor cleaning chores, my #1 worst outdoor cleaning job of all time would have to be………………………… Picking up the dog poop ????!!!!! I know using the Bosch Pressure Washer could be disastrous cleaning up this mess….though it would be absolutely wonderful for everything else ????

  • May Lavale

    We have been in our house for 5 years now and we naughty us, we haven’t actually washed any of our decking, the roofs of our outdoor areas and it would definitely come in handy for our windows which are hard to reach. I have been saying we need a pressure washer To help us do all those jobs but we just have been putting it off!!
