I bought the Apache HM4411 during Flash Sale (RM169.95) and it's working wonders...been using it weekly for about 3 months now. NO complaints la for the price...

I got this too during 11.11 sale. Also got the more expensive foam cannon. Works great with creating foam.

However, you must get an extension hose because the default is only like 2m which is not enough. Thus needing to move the unit about. With extension hose you don't need to move the pump around. The hose will be long enough to reach the whole car. Using water jet is better in cleaning car with less water. I have since invested another rm150+ to buy accessories and longer hose.

If i wash my car with the pressure washer... confirm neighbor cars / laundry also will get wet a bit.

So have to wait until they are out if i want to use the pressure washer to wash the car.

Get longer hose. Wash outside your house.

Last year bought apache from shopee satisfy..

Now i'm looking for spray foam gooding one. can produce thick foam.

Have you found a good foaming kit? I bought Apache's newer version of foam cannon and another one of those normal type sold everywhere online. Apache one produces better foam but I prefer if it could be thicker. Let me know if you have found something better. Take note apache is selling 2 type of foam canister kit. I got the more expensive one that is said to produce better foam.

Search for MJJC foam lance. It can be used with different type of adapter head whether it is kracher, Bosch etc. The foam results is very thick.

Bought something that look like MJJC but it's China made. However, it is not producing as good foam as the ori Apache's.

I haven’t tried Apache but MJJC works really well for me. I get very thick foam using it.

It could be due to pressure level. Thick foam are usually generated from stronger pressure washer. Cheaps one are usually lower pressure value.

New MATCC brand foam cannon just arrived. Looks almost 90% like the one sold by Apache except the connector. Will test maybe in a few days.

New foam cannon design from Apache is here. Bought one to wash my cars during MCO. Amazing.

Wow! If it works well then it's good deal cause the previous one I bought (in my first picture), sold at RM99. This one at RM69.90 is reasonable.

Can share the link where you get this gun

You might need to double check if your connection fits. Cause the connection at the bottom is M22/14. Apache uses M22/15. M22 is the outer thread size which means 22mm. The 14/15 is the inner tube size which is 14mm/15mm respectively.

Looks for converters if you need them.

Why not just buy everything from Apache? They have pretty much all accessories now...
*
I wanted to try other guns and water spray types. Also, Apache is selling accessories at very much higher price. Like the 10m extension hose and previously the foam cannons. With the same amount of price, I can buy more stuffs. However, for a normal user who just want to basic stuffs, stick with Apache. I prefer to experiment with stuffs that's why I got other accesories.

the Apache form doesnt work for me. maybe i dont know how to use it. or my shampoo vs water ratio is incorrect. i bought the smallest capacity from apache, not the new one.
*
Show the picture of the foam cannon and the foam you got.

Cause apache seems to be sending all sorts of foam cannon that doesn't match the picture in their website. My neighbour bought the cheap version but got something that looks good quality.

It also depends on the type of shampoo you are using. So your mixing ratio will be different with others.

The replacement hose from machine to guy 3m RM49.90.

It is 1/3 of the machine price which cost RM160.... better to buy a new one or another brand with proper one...

This apacer - everytime i use it, the wires all up side down.. gulung sini and there... damn
*
The water hose are the same for most brands. I do not understand what you mean by gulung sini sana or tangle. This is normal for all hose. You need to learn to untangle the hose properly not just pull only and hope it will untangle by itself. As for the apache machine, yes it is cheap one. The only downside I see is the noise. More expensive one will be silent. Apache is a bit noisy. Other than that no issue.

Which model are you using bro?

I am using HM4411. I think that's the base model. I used it to wash my second level roof also no problem. Sometimes the pressure will be a bit low but let it pump a bit then it will be fine.

QUOTE(gahpadu @ Oct 15 2020, 10:00 AM)
Which brand produce less noise? My neighbour bought Tsunami brand. Its got loud noise .

Budget around 300-400.  To wash car /clean tile porch
*
If want silent, get Karcher. This is known good brand for waterjet.
