Excellent so far (two months). It is quite quiet, compared to others we have had in the past, it seems powerful, meaning it is great for washing cars, etc. Works perfectly and possibly more powerful than other similar bars mentioned. The rotating accessory on the gun is very good, as you don't need to change nozzles for different water beams. I don't know if I should have gotten the more powerful one at 135 bar, but I don't notice a difference in performance. Three-year warranty with registration on the Bosch website.
After 6 years, it is worth its money and more. A decent foam dispenser they should have put, even though this one does the job... longer hose... and everything is perfect.... just all pressure washers need frequent use to avoid damage.
The tool is very good, it says it is 125 bar but the continuous pressure is 75, nevertheless it gives the feeling that it is quite powerful and the most important thing is that it has a metal pump. It has satisfactory pressure for washing cars, motorcycles, carpets, and blinds. In terms of noise, it is normal. I was torn between this and the equivalent-priced Nilfisk, but I chose this one because from the research I did, I read that Nilfisk has problems with the gun, and also because it seemed more high-quality in terms of construction. All the accessories are neatly organized. I liked the nozzle that has three options, simply by turning it without needing to detach it and put on something else to do a different job. What I didn't like is the foam sprayer, I would have liked it to produce thicker foam, and I would have liked the hose of the gun to be one meter longer without it causing any problems. I believe it is worth the money and it is a good purchase. Finally, it has a three-year warranty with Bosch's extended program. Something very important for it to perform at its best is to provide it with good water supply with good pressure
We washed 5-6 small rugs and cleaned a approximately 10 square meter terrace. The first impression is relatively good. Its appearance is Spartan, as it is accompanied only by the familiar 3-in-1 nozzle and the detergent container. The pressure is good, but not amazing. For 125 bar, I expected something better. It did its job with the rugs and the terrace with dignity. I was impressed by its temperature, as it literally steamed at the end without affecting its functionality. I don't know what would happen if I used it for another half an hour. Maybe nothing. The 3-in-1 nozzle is very convenient, although I usually only use the lance. I didn't use the detergent container (I will come back to it once I wash my car). Its plastics seem to be of good quality. I would have preferred the high-pressure hose to be 1-2 meters longer. The noise is lower compared to a Karcher 2.300 that I had (it broke down), although it doesn't matter to me as such machines are not used at midnight in an apartment building. And we may come to the most important point: durability. The store where I bought it told me that these machines (not just the Bosch one, but all of them) suffer from water with high salt content, as well as from infrequent use (as strange as it may sound). This is because if you don't use the salt frequently, it starts to corrode the plastic parts inside and problems arise (pay attention to the characteristics of the machines, whether they have a plastic or metal pump). The solution is to clean it from salt after each use. I don't know exactly how to do it, as I searched a bit on the internet but didn't find anything. However, I will come back to it. Conclusion: It's a good machine for amateur use around the house. It doesn't perform miracles. None of the machines in the price range of around 110 euros do. It is better than the Karcher 2.300 that I had, though. I don't know if there is a better one in this price range, and I probably will never find out because if this one breaks down, I will go for the 150-200 euro category.

More or less as I mentioned above. The detergent container is incredibly helpful. You put the detergent (for cars or rugs) as it is, without diluting it. I haven't found a way to clean it from salt after each use. Pay attention to the filter it has at the water inlet of the pump, it needs frequent checking and cleaning for maximum performance.

Everything is fine. As I mentioned above.
Update 02/08/2023
After a few months of inactivity, the lance, which is the only one I use, didn't produce much pressure. I filled a water bottle halfway with vinegar and soaked the nozzle in it for a few hours to clean it from salt. It now works as before.
Powerful with moderate noise, the only downside is the relatively heavy gun. Whether it's worth its money will be seen over time. EDIT 10-2021: It has started to leak water from the gun trigger and the motor starts and stops instantly without pressing the trigger. I will send it for service since it has a 3-year warranty. Reply from the dealership: The 3-year warranty does not apply because I did not activate it through the Bosch website, so I am left with 2 years and paid 50 euros for a new gun. Edit: Today, 25-4-23, it suddenly stopped working, it's going back for service. Edit 4-5-23: Reply from the dealership, 89 euros + VAT. With 110 euros, you can buy a new one, so it's not worth repairing.
