Patoolio Direct is recalling approximately 2,066 electric pressure washers because they lack a built-in ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). This safety defect poses a serious risk of shock or electrocution to anyone using the device. The recall includes model W8 (grey and black) and model W6 (orange) units sold exclusively online at Amazon.com from October 2025 through January 2026. Consumers should immediately stop using these pressure washers and contact Patoolio Direct for a full refund after destroying the unit.
The power cord lacks a required safety device (GFCI) that automatically shuts off power if an electrical fault occurs, which can lead to severe electric shock or death by electrocution during use. No injuries have been reported to date.
Consumers should stop using the recalled pressure washers immediately and contact Patoolio Direct for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the pressure washer by cutting the power cord in half and send a photo of the destroyed power washer to PatoolioPressureWasherrecall@outlook.com. Consumers should then dispose of the destroyed recalled product.
Units measure about 15 inches high, 12 inches wide and 12 inches deep. Units included four quick connect nozzles and a foam cannon.
