What is it not ideal for?

Masseys recommendation
Choose the STIHL RE 90 if you want a compact, entry-level STIHL pressure washer for domestic cleaning jobs such as cars, bikes, garden furniture, bins, steps, paths and smaller patio areas.
It is the right choice if you want something easy to store, simple to set up and powerful enough for routine cleaning. If you regularly clean larger patios, driveways or heavily soiled paving, we would recommend stepping up to a PLUS model such as the STIHL RE 110 PLUS, STIHL RE 120 PLUS or STIHL RE 130 PLUS.
Compact STIHL pressure washer for home and garden cleaning
The STIHL RE 90 is designed for everyday domestic cleaning. It gives you the cleaning power needed for common outdoor tasks without the size, weight or cost of a larger pressure washer.
The compact body makes it easy to move, store and set up. The integrated accessory storage helps keep the nozzle, lance and cleaning attachments with the machine, while the park position gives you somewhere convenient to rest the lance when taking a break.
The RE 90 is a particularly good fit for homeowners who want a practical machine for seasonal cleaning, car care, garden tidying and general outdoor maintenance.
Fan jet nozzle, rotary nozzle and detergent spray set included
Fan jet nozzle
The fan jet nozzle is the standard nozzle for normal dirt on a wide range of surfaces. Use it for cars, bikes, garden furniture, tools, bins and more delicate cleaning jobs where controlled pressure is important.
Rotary nozzle
The rotary nozzle is designed for stubborn dirt on robust outdoor surfaces. It is useful for paving, paths, steps and hardwearing patio areas. Do not use the rotary nozzle on car paintwork, old timber, fragile surfaces, loose paint or delicate finishes.
Cleaning agent spray set
The cleaning agent spray set mixes water with detergent and sprays the mixture directly from the spray lance. This is useful for applying car shampoo, patio cleaner or outdoor cleaning solution before rinsing.
Easy to connect, use and store
The quick-release coupling makes it simple to connect the spray lance and high-pressure hose. The 6 m high-pressure hose gives practical reach for domestic jobs, while the 5 m power cable helps when working around cars, patios and garden areas.
After use, the accessories can be stored directly on the machine for a neater, space-saving setup in your garage, shed or utility area.
