Shoppers praise £20 garden accessory that is ‘like a jet washer’

Pressure washers are useful but they can also be very expensive. In an effort to save money without compromising on performance, Amazon shoppers have found a heavy duty alternative for less than £20.

The Restmo Heavy Duty Hose Pipe Spray Gun offers an instant boost to garden hoses, allowing for a more targeted spray pattern and a powerful flow. Currently available to buy on Amazon for £19.99, it comes with a quick-connection male adapter for a snug fit with the garden hose

Unlike traditional pressure washers that rely on motorised pumps for high-velocity stripping, the jet hose nozzle uses existing water pressure for a much gentler and more portable cleaning experience.

Although it doesn’t deliver the same force as a pressure washer, the nozzle’s lower flow rate can make it better suited to tasks involving delicate car paintwork or softer garden materials.

The device includes seven watering patterns, allowing users to switch quickly between a stronger jet for cleaning and a light mist for plants. This range of settings means it can be used for everything from removing mud from a vehicle to lightly watering a lawn.

A built-in flow-control knob allows pressure adjustments without returning to the tap, and a rubberised section is intended to limit leaks. The handle is covered in a soft, non-slip material designed to improve grip and insulate against cold water, with the aim of reducing tired hands for bigger cleaning jobs.

The front trigger can be locked in place to maintain a steady stream of water, making it easier to cover larger areas without repeatedly squeezing the handle. A quick-connection male adapter is supplied to help ensure a secure, leak-resistant fit with standard garden hoses.

Overall, the nozzle presents a relatively low-cost option for routine outdoor cleaning and watering, with features aimed at reducing water waste and simplifying everyday tasks.

Alternatively, shoppers could consider the Hozelock Hose spray gun available to buy for £32 from B&Q. This branded model is a light weight, soft-touch edition with the premium branded Hoze Lock attachment.

Elsewhere at Argos, the WORX Hydroshot Cordless Pressure Washer is a more expensive option at £95. With a small but effective motor, it features a 5-in-1 pressure nozzle for multiple uses.

Shoppers who have already snapped up the Restmo Heavy Duty Hose Pipe Spray Gun have given it an impressive 4.5 out of five-star rating on Amazon. One buyer said: “The power behind this gun is immense… Whether it’s a gentle mist for delicate flowers or a strong jet to wash away dirt and grime, it has all the right moves. The adjustable nozzle ensures you can switch from one mode to another with ease. The heavy-duty construction makes it feel like an indestructible force, one you can count on for the long haul.”

Another added: “Whether I’m watering my lawn, washing my dog, or cleaning patio furniture, this nozzle handles it all with ease… hands-down the best garden hose nozzle I’ve ever used!”

A third simple added: “Well made. Works like a jet wash. Great quality so far.”

One buyer was less impressed however, noting: “Like the fact that it seems quite solid and it works ok, but sprays not as good as I was hoping, especially the ‘mist’ – a bit disappointed.”

One detailed review explained: “I very rarely write reviews but I have to say this is the best hose attachment I’ve come across by far! I have always purchase from the supposedly market leaders i.e. Hozelock but I found they usually leak and if inadvertently left out in frost the plastic body cracks. This product is far more robust, is made of metal and there are no leaks.All of the functions work perfectly. This is a superb product and I have no hesitation in recommending it.”
