I purchased this to replace my 2800psi gas powered pressure washer. While this only put out 2300 psi it’s still powerful enough for my application. I basically just use it for the concrete driveway and sidewalks. I have a 15” surface cleaner with wheels and a turbo nozzle that I kept from my old gas washer. While the 2300psi isn’t enough to levitate the stainless steel surface cleaner it seems to do an adequate job. This machine comes with three spray nozzles and a turbo nozzle. The turbo doesn’t have a wide of a concentric spray pattern as my old one but I found it to be sufficient enough for cleaning the edges of the driveway before using the surface cleaner.
It was very easy to assemble and no tools were needed other than a wrench to tighten hose fitting. It comes with a 35ft GFCI protected cord and a 25ft kink resistant hose. I was hoping that the hose would have a fitting on both ends because I wanted to use my after market 50 ft hose but one end is connected internally to the machine. The hose stores nicely on the hose reel that’s built into the handle. There also a cord keeper built into the handle that has pivoting arms that allow for removal of the cord without unwrapping it.
The motor has an automatic cutoff mechanism that kills the motor as soon as you release the handle grip on the wand. There’s also a foot operated on off switch.
All and all this is an excellent machine for residential use. The handle and all external parts are made of plastic so won’t take a lot of abuse but for a homeowner using it occasionally around the house I think it’s worth the money. And no more stale gas sitting around the garage????.
