Hades On Wheels

by Rob Brinkley

Dirt, meet match. Black&Decker’s portable electric pressure washer means you get to take aim at decks, patios, sidewalks, even SUVs with 1,600PSI worth of cleaning power. Adjustable nozzles and an onboard detergent system make this baby a real blast. (Doesn’t hurt, either, that it looks like something Lara Croft would’ve wheeled around.) $160. (800) 544-6986, www.blackanddecker.com — R.B.
