Florida Ryobi Pressure Washer Injury Lawyers
If you were injured while using a RYOBI electric pressure washer in Florida, you’re not alone — and you may be entitled to compensation. In August 2025, over 1.3 million RYOBI pressure washers were recalled due to a serious defect that can cause the spray wand to break off and strike users, creating a projectile hazard that may result in facial injuries, eye damage, broken bones, or other trauma.
At the Law Offices of Jason Turchin, our Florida-based product liability team can pursue claims for injuries caused by these recalled RYOBI pressure washers. We can represent clients across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Tampa, and throughout Florida who were hurt by dangerous or defective products.
About the RYOBI Pressure Washer Recall
On August 22, 2025, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a recall involving three popular models of RYOBI electric pressure washers:
- RY14122
- RY141600
- RY141612
According to the recall:
- Over 600 reports have been made of the spray wand breaking during use.
- Multiple users have suffered impact injuries, including eye and facial trauma.
- The recalled units were sold at Home Depot, Amazon, and Direct Tools Factory Outlet between 2017 and 2024.
The manufacturer, TTI Outdoor Power Equipment Inc., has advised consumers to stop using the product immediately and request a replacement wand.
How Injuries Occur
The design defect allows the spray wand to break apart under pressure, launching broken plastic or metal components toward the user’s body at high speed.
Possible injuries may include:
- Eye injuries – including corneal damage, loss of vision, or orbital fractures
- Facial fractures or contusions
- Concussions or head trauma
- Broken teeth
- Deep lacerations or cuts
- Emotional trauma or PTSD following a traumatic accident
Even if you were not hospitalized, any injury caused by the defective pressure washer may qualify you for a legal claim.
Florida Product Liability Law and Your Rights
Under Florida product liability law, manufacturers and retailers can be held legally responsible for injuries caused by defective products.
To bring a valid claim, your lawyer will generally need to show that:
- The product was defective when sold.
- You were using the product as intended or in a reasonably foreseeable way.
- The defect caused your injury.
Unlike other types of injury cases, product liability lawsuits do not require you to prove that the company was negligent — only that the product itself was unreasonably dangerous.
Pressure Washer Injury Case in Florida
Imagine a Florida resident was using his RYOBI pressure washer to clean his driveway when the spray wand suddenly snapped at the joint. The broken section could have hit him in the face, fracturing his nose and cutting his upper lip.
He could require emergency medical treatment and surgery to correct the damage. He can also miss several weeks of work.
With help from a Florida product liability attorney, he could file a claim against the manufacturer and seek compensation for:
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Lost wages
- Future medical care
This is the type of case the Law Offices of Jason Turchin can pursue across the state.
What To Do If You Were Injured
If you were hurt while using a RYOBI pressure washer, follow these steps:
- Seek immediate medical attention – Even if injuries seem minor.
- Preserve the unit and broken parts – Do not throw away the pressure washer or the spray wand.
- Take photos – Document your injuries, the damage to the wand, and the surrounding area.
- Gather receipts and warranty documents – If possible, locate proof of purchase.
- Speak with a Florida product liability lawyer – Don’t try to negotiate with the company alone.
Why Hire a Florida Ryobi Pressure Washer Injury Lawyer?
Product liability claims — especially against large corporations like Techtronic Industries or RYOBI — are generally complex. These companies often have legal teams working to deny or reduce payouts.
An experienced injury attorney can:
- Review your case and determine if the pressure washer involved is part of the recall
- Retain product safety and engineering experts
- Preserve evidence and notify the manufacturer
- Calculate damages including future medical needs or lost income
- Negotiate a settlement or file a lawsuit if necessary
We can represent clients throughout Florida and offer free consultations to review your options.
Compensation in RYOBI Pressure Washer Injury Cases
If you were injured by a recalled pressure washer, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills (ER visits, follow-ups, surgeries, medications)
- Lost wages from time missed at work
- Pain and suffering – including physical and emotional impact
- Permanent scarring or disfigurement
- Future care or surgeries
- Property damage (if the pressure washer caused damage to personal property)
Every case is unique, and damages will vary depending on the severity of your injuries and the impact on your life.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
I live in Florida but bought my RYOBI pressure washer online. Can I still file a claim?
Yes. As long as you were injured in Florida and the product was recalled or defective, you may qualify. We can also represent you if you live in another state through our network of co-counsel.
What if I no longer have the receipt?
You may still have a valid case. Other documentation (credit card statements, product registration, serial numbers) can help.
Can I sue if I already accepted a replacement wand?
Yes — if you were injured before receiving the replacement, you may still have a claim.
How long do I have to file a claim in Florida?
Most Florida product liability cases must be filed within two years of the date of injury.
Can I file a claim if I was only bruised or cut?
Yes. You may still qualify for compensation, even if your injuries did not require hospitalization.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes. Call (800) 337-7755 to speak with a lawyer about your potential claim.
What if the pressure washer was a gift?
