Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Bosch EasyAquatak 120 has the best evidence of any machine in this category, 4,378 ratings at 4.5, and the Amazon Edition bundle is genuinely generous: a 250 patio cleaner, a wash brush, the gun, lance, 5 metre hose, a variable fan jet nozzle, a rotary nozzle and a 450 ml detergent nozzle. For washing a car, the wash brush is the piece that earns its place. Its arithmetic is also the most conservative on the page, at 120 bar and 350 litres per hour giving 1,167 hydraulic watts from a 1,500 watt motor, or 78 percent.
What drops it from second to fifth is the price. It was £82.99 in August and it is £130.05 now, a rise of 57 percent, which means it costs £22 more than the UniversalAquatak 135 while having a smaller motor, less pressure, less flow and a shorter hose. The old argument for this machine was that it was the cheapest way into a Bosch, and that argument has stopped being true. Worth knowing before you buy: the same page sells a 120 bar Premium variant for £87.00. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.

Questions people ask
Is the Bosch EasyAquatak 120 still worth buying?
It depends entirely on the price you find. At the £82.99 it cost in August it was excellent value. At £130.05 it costs more than the bigger UniversalAquatak 135, which has a 1,900 watt motor against 1,500, 135 bar against 120 and a 7 metre hose against 5. Check both prices before choosing.
What is in the Home and Car Kit?
The 250 patio cleaner attachment, a wash brush, the high-pressure gun, the lance, a 5 metre hose, a variable fan jet nozzle, a rotary nozzle, a high-pressure detergent nozzle with a 450 ml bottle and a water filter. The wash brush is the part that matters for a car.
Is it 100 bar or 120 bar?
The specification field says 120 Bars and the model is named 120, but the fifth bullet on the same listing says the machine provides 350 litres an hour thanks to the 1500 watt motor and 100 bar pressure. Two of the three sources say 120, so that is the figure we use.
How much cleaning power does it produce?
1,167 hydraulic watts, worked out as 120 bar times 350 litres per hour divided by 36. That is 78 percent of its 1,500 watt motor, the most conservative ratio on this page, which suggests Bosch is quoting a pressure the pump holds rather than a peak it reaches.
Why is there a cheaper Premium version on the same page?
The listing sells five variants, and the 120 bar Premium is £87.00 against £130.05 for the standard 120 bar. Both state the same pressure. If you want this machine, compare the variants in the size selector before adding to basket.
Does it come with a hose for the tap?
No. One owner had a long exchange with Amazon support about exactly this, since there is no connection between an outdoor tap and the unit in the box. You need a garden hose and a standard hose connector.
