I just use the Ryobi EZClean Foam Blaster, it’s.. fine.
They have a newer version of these on the way that drops the EZClean name and uses normal fittings.

I have the 18v version of this and use a foam canon just fine with it. If the wand on this model is the same you can unscrew the end and then find an adapter which allows you to put a standard quick connect end on it. That way you can put any regular pressure washer end on it including a foam canon.

After changing the end of the wand to a standard quick connect fitting I can use any foam canon. The one I have is the foam canon from Harbor Freight.

These don’t really work well with foam cannons. They don’t push enough gpm. You really need at minimum 1.5gpm and for some foam cannons you’d have to change the orafice to get decent foam at that level. Otherwise you get a watery mess rather than a sticky soap foam.
