I’m using the Ava Go.

Tidy little washer when space is at a premium (so jealous of these garages I’m seeing).

Stock hose is great but that foam cannon is flimsy

I use Kranzle. The main advantage is that this unit can be rebuilt over your lifetime. Lots of other units are disposable ,so to speak, and when they are at end of life you throw them away and purchase another. The build quality of the Kranzle is excellent -so is their after sales service. Mine arrived with a defective start stop mechanism.
I called the supplier and shipped it back (they covered shipping) and they sent me a brand new replacement which has been working for over a year now flawlessly.
I also have the OG spec Mosmatic wand/accessories.
If one cares about good performance, ease of use and build quality the Kranzle setup is highly recommended.

Crazy rationale, the Active 2.0 has life expectancy of more than 250 hours. It took me less than 30 minutes of usage per wash, the pump would last almost 20 years if I wash the car twice a month. I couldn't justify spending that kind of money for a Kranzel when the Active 2.0 is at fraction of the cost (even the Active 2.0 is probably overkilled for most people)

Switched over from my Ryobi/Honda Engined PW with throttle-down that was 3200 PSI/ 2.3 GPM to a sweet and quieter electric Active 2.0 with Active Gun with MTM 40 degree/4.0 nozzle with all Flexzilla hoses in which their customer service is absolutely shit. Adam's rebranded On The Go DI water system with a bypass which is the best thing ever. I do have RO water in the house but I prefer this method.

Right now it's on a temporary cart while I am deciding on a Cox reel and shelf kit for wall mount, plus custom water connections and electrical.

The beauty of the Kranzle... 5 years old and water seals leaking... No problem.... Order the seal kit, change the oil and your good to go!
