Gorilla Power GP6 and GP8 pressure washers

GP6. The GP6 Domestic Electric Pressure Washer is the home and light trade machine: a 2000W carbon brush motor, up to 160 bar and 7 litres a minute, and an 8m hose, with an Auto Stop system that pauses the pump when you let go of the trigger. It suits cars, patios, driveways and garden equipment.

GP8. The GP8 Semi-Professional Electric Pressure Washer steps up to a 3100W induction motor. It is rated at 130 bar and 10 litres a minute, with a maximum of 190 bar and 11 litres a minute, and comes with an 8m high pressure hose, a 5m power cord, a brass turbo nozzle and a foam bottle. It weighs 23.1kg. The extra flow helps with rinsing and with snow foam.

Which one? The GP6 covers most home washing. The GP8's induction motor and higher flow suit people who wash often, foam a lot or clean bigger driveways and patios. Keep the turbo nozzle for hard surfaces and well away from paint.
