Nomad pressure washers come out tops in What Mountain Bike test

Posted by Gary Rands on December 21, 2011 No comments


We knew it all along, but we’re delighted that in January’s issue of What Mountain Bike – issue 130 – both the Nomad 12 V and Nomad 18 V were rated the best portable pressure washers, with the Nomad 18 V being declared ‘What Mountain Bike Winner’.

What’s more they described Nomad washers as the’ go-to brand for powered cleaning solutions for all sorts of sports.’ Wow!

In this comprehensive test, not only did the editors put ours and our competitors’ washers through a range of tests, they also spoke to you, the users, for your experiences.  They looked at the cleaning  power,  features,  ease of use and quality, and finally scored the products out of five.  So how did they reach their conclusions?

Nomad 12 V.  Our ‘entry level’ model beat all our competitor’s similar car-powered washers, both cheaper and more expensive ones, and was described as ‘a really well designed, easy to user friendly, car-powered washer ‘ scoring 3.5 out of a maximum 5.

Nomad 18 V. Winner. Our cordless washer was awarded the winner title over the whole test, being summarised as ’Dual power versatility from the Nomad 18 V plus a great quality, user friendly feel’. They testers also said: “The most expensive on test justifies itself with dual power user friendliness and really well designed functionality.”

Nomad at Your Horse Live 2011

Posted by Gary Rands on November 16, 2011 No comments

What a show we had.  We met so many old friends, made lots of new ones.  The new stand looked amazing – thank you to everyone that worked so hard on it and the sales of Nomad 18V, well let’s just say we will need an even bigger van next year!

It is always nice to hear that customers love their Nomad for washing horses off.  We truly lost count how many people came up to us on the stand and said so.  Prospective customers on the stand must have thought we had paid stooges!  It does make all the hard work so worthwhile…..glad you like them and thank you again for taking the time to come and see us.

Of course we were not alone as we had a number of our resellers there too on their own stands, so it’s a big thank to you all:-  Clippersharpe, Jumps Online, Hot Horse Products, Equi-trek Tregaron.

The mountain bike race team we have sponsored for many years Torq Fitness were also at the show providing advice and samples of their professional performance and recovery foods, gels and drinks for humans and not for horses for a change!  Good luck to Matt, Sasha and the rest of the guys for striving to make riders more healthy and performing to their optimum.

Warm water washing was a big discussion topic as the weather is finally starting to turn, which led to the Cosy Cover for the Nomad 18 V going down extremely well and very quickly selling out – all back orders will be filled this week from new stock.  The water heater we have tested with the Nomad 18V and sell an adapter hose for to Friday Fox, Hot Horse Products and Bell Tent UK also garnered a great deal of interest.  For yards without mains water or electricity, the water heateris a great cost effective solution.  The cold water in a Nomad 18 V tank can be pumped through the bottled gas  powered heater and either used from the heaters own spray head on re-circulated back into the Nomad’s tank for using in another location.  Quick, no fuss warm/hot water wherever you are.  No one wants to use cold water this time of the year!

The option to pay on the day for a Nomad 18 V and have it delivered by the Tuesday after the show worked well and saved lots of carrying back to cars and coaches – we will do that again.  The platinum, gold, silver and bronze package deals went down well and several were sold and it’s clear Santa is going to be busy with the number of Nomads on peoples Christmas Lists!

It was great to see so many visitors at the Show and a big thank you must go out to Bauer Media for putting on such a great event.

See you all next year.

Until then if you want to have the best for you and your horse, please do not hesitate to contact our friendly customer service team for sales or advice.

Get cosy, keep cosy

Posted by Gary Rands on November 8, 2011 No comments

The heating’s on and off at the moment, a sure sign that the colder autumn weather is starting to make itself felt.  And when you’re riding your horse or bike in these conditions there’s nothing worse than completing your ride and having a muddy bike that you pack away or horse your take back in your box after a hunt, muddied up, that you have to clean later when the mud has dried.

So don’t leave it until it’s too late to buy your Nomad Cosy. Commissioned to fit snuggly around the Nomad 18 V, this insulating layer keeps warm water warm in your Nomad. Which means if you fill the tank with hot water before you set out, a few hours later it will remain toasty, and you can clean your bike or horse down with luxurious warm water after your ride.  And don’t forget you can shower yourself, too. Mmmmm!

And, just in time, we’ve just taken delivery of more stock. See here.

Oasby Horse Trials. October 15th – 16th

Posted by Gary Rands on October 20, 2011 No comments
  • 2 days
  • 120 clean calm horses
  • 840 litres of water
  • 60 Nomad tankfuls of water
  • Half a tank of water per horse – Just 7 litres (1.5 gallons) each

That’s less than half a bucketful per horse!

The end of the season Bede event demonstrated how effective the Nomad portable washer is in quickly and effectively removing sweat and mud from horses at the end of the cross-country course.

The now familiar portable washers were put to the test and a welcome sight for riders finishing the course who instinctively grabbed the spray guns and set to work bathing their mounts with pre-warmed water.

On a sunny autumn day, this was a perfect ending to an excellent and friendly Bede British Eventing series.

Thanks to Anna and Stuart Buntine (picture above with his daugther and Anna’s Horse) for their energy and professionalism in organising the season’s events. See you next year.

Osberton 29 Sept – 2 October – It’s a sell-out

Posted by Gary Rands on October 20, 2011 No comments

Fine weather and high temperatures over the course of Osberton International Horse Trials meant that cooling horses in as quick a possible time was paramount. So these were perfect conditions to demonstrate the convenience and effectiveness of the Nomad 18 V cordless washer.

For each of the cross-country rounds Nomad Direct provided free use of demonstrator Nomad washers in the 10 minute area so that riders and their crews could quickly get the heart rate of their horses down after the strenuous cross country course. An ample supply of ice allowed us to pre-chill the water in the washers’ tanks,  giving horses a soothing cooling.

The response was fantastic with many users appreciating the simplicity of the Nomad.  No buckets, no sponges. Just cool water on demand that could be aimed directly at difficult to reach parts of the horse – such as between the hind quarters – to bring down their temperature and heart rate quickly and safely.  In many instances we were preaching to the converted but the riders simply took advantage of the facility

For others it was a revelation and a turning point: to ditch the old ways!  As a result we sold out.  Thank you to all our customers on the day.

Next stop – Oadsby.

Thank you for your feedback

Posted by Gary Rands on October 5, 2011 No comments


It’s great to receive positive feedback on both our products and our service.  Here’s on email we recently were delighted to receive.

“We have had the Nomad washer for around a year and it has been used to wash down our two carriage driving ponies after heavy exercise at least 4 times a week – every week. A fantastic product – reliable, extremely portable and the ponies enjoy being washed and cooled down at the same time. It has proved to be much more effective than using a hose pipe or bucket of water. In summer it cools them down efficiently and in winter we can get the sweat off without getting the two of them too wet. At competitions between stages it is simple to get out of the lorry and quickly hose down tack, carriage as well as the ponies themselves. We have found it handy to have a spare battery and in-lorry charger to get us through a weekend. A great buy.”
