CleanYourCar Real-World Test Results


We tested this machine ourselves

Independent in-house testing — flow rate, PSI, amp draw, noise and tank draw, measured on our own rig.





8.65 lpm @ 47 orifice


5.10 A amps @ 50 orifice


14.8 kg machine weight


79 dB noise reading






⚡ Generator & extension lead friendly: We ran the Active 2.3 on a 2,200W generator and it operated without issue. At just 5.10 amps on the 50 orifice, it is one of the most electrically light pressure washers we have tested — ideal for mobile detailers, anyone working from a generator, or running on a long extension lead — while still delivering 2.28 gpm of usable flow. It also pulls reliably from a bucket or tank, performing as well as any self-priming machine in our test.
