WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using SEN-QII pressure washers immediately. The pressure washers lack an integrated immersion protection device on or near the power plug, also known as a Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI), posing a risk of death or serious injury due to electrocution and shock. These pressure washers do not comply with the applicable voluntary standard.
The pressure washers were sold online at Amazon.com for between $79 and $100. These pressure washers were sold with four quick disconnect nozzles and a foam cannon, as well as four roller wheels. The pressure washer has an information label on the top of the unit, behind the handle that reads “High Pressure Washer.”
SEN-QII of China has refused to agree to an acceptable recall to address this hazard.
The pressure washers were manufactured in China.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the pressure washers immediately, and destroy them by unplugging, cutting the power cord, and disposing of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous pressure washers.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
