Ryobi is one of the top names in the pressure washing industry, particularly, in the low-psi electric pressure washer segment. The company is great at designing power washers that aren’t just high performing, but also durable, reliable, and easy to use.

Among the best products in Ryobi’s portfolio at the moment is  a Ryobi 1600 pressure washer. Despite its maximum pressure output only putting it in the light duty range, it can provide more than enough power to handle most residential cleaning jobs like washing driveways, garage, and patio furniture.

With that in mind, here are some of the popular questions (and answers!) about the Ryobi 1600 power washer that could give you a better idea of what this power washer is all about.

What’s the Performance Really Like and What Job Is It Suited For?



Performance is great, if the dozens of positive reviews from customers are any indication.

Like its name might have already suggested, the Ryobi mini pressure washer is capable of generating about 1600 psi of water pressure at an ample flow rate of 1.2 gpm.

With this kind of performance, the power washer will be well suited for light cleaning jobs such as scrubbing the patio furniture, cleaning up driveways, stairs, and garage. Of course, you cannot expect the washer to handle more strenuous jobs such as paint stripping or cleaning out the exterior walls of multi-story homes.

In conclusion, for ordinary cleaning jobs around the house, the 1600 psi Ryobi pressure washer will do the job wonderfully.

[/color]What’s the Difference Between An Electric Pressure Washer Like the Ryobi 1600 and a Gas Pressure Washer?

This is a popular question, especially among consumers who are new to pressure washing.
The Ryobi 1600 pressure washer is an electric washer and there are many differences that separate it from its gas-firing counterparts. The first thing is performance: admittedly, the Ryobi (and all other electric washers) is at a disadvantage. Gas-fired washers are typically more powerful, so they’re usually employed in commercial cleaning jobs.

But that’s not to say that it’s worse.

Albeit less powerful, an electric pressure washer combines portability with convenience. It is typically more lightweight (thus, more portable). In addition, an electric washer is more reliable, requires less maintenance, and lastly, more affordable, as well. 

All of these properties make it a perfect candidate for residential cleaning and/or an entry-level pressure washer. It’s also the reason why we mostly recommend electric washers like the Ryobi electric pressure washer 1600 to most people. Unless you have a job that demands you have the potent cleaning power of gas-fired washers, there’s really no good reason to spend big on one.



What Kind of Detergent is Best For the Ryobi 1600 psi 1.2 GPM electric pressure washer ?
There are many kinds of soap and detergent on the market, however, not every type will work well with your pressure washer. 

It all depends on the strength. Some are way too strong and concentrated for use with your pressure washer, and some are far too diluted that you’d be better off not even using any detergent at all.There are some excellent types of detergents on the market mixed specifically for pressure washers in mind like the Karcher Car Wash & Wax Soap for Pressure Washers or the Sun Joe SPX-FCS1G-CRM. As long as you know where to search, you’re not short for options.

Conclusion

We hope this short FAQ has given you a bit more insight into how to use the Ryobi mini pressure washer. Since most of these are universal knowledge, you can also apply them to all other power washers in the future.
