| I have only owned this pressure washer for 48 hrs. but I have had it working hard and it hasn't let me down! I'm a painting contractor and I have a bigger gas powered hydroblaster but I wanted something to use while my partner was blasting the heavier stuff like deck floors. I figured I could just clean rails and pickets. This machine does a fine job on them and more, it surprisingly tackles even the heavier work, but... and this is the part I love...it doesn't gouge the wood as easily as the bigger units. It is easy to operate, light weight, well designed. It comes with two wands, an adjustable fan spray and a turbo nozzle....the turbo is my favorite....aggressive cleaning without gouging. The fan spray is a twist adjustment...no stopping to change tips. I've owned Karcher's and they were ok but didn't last long. This is a better unit and if it keeps on running it will be worth every penny. If it dies I'll be back to amend this review. |
No leaks, good power, feels solid

This pressure washer gets the job done for modest tasks around the home. It's loud close-up, but no noisier than a lawn mower from a few feet away.
After regularly borrowing friends' washers, I decided I needed my own, but didn't want to spend too much for something I'd use once or twice a year. I also required an electric model to minimize maintenance. The many models of Karcher here on Amazon seemed to consistently get negative reviews, so I gave this new model (which had no reviews at the time) a shot instead. So far, so good, after a few hours use. No leaks, no problems.
So far, I've washed various plastics (birdbath, recycle bin), brickwork, concrete sidewalks/porches, doormats, and concrete garage floor with the adjustable "fan" wand. Things seemed to clean off well, but the grime (about 3 years worth) on the sidewalk required a very slow close-up pass, followed by a second pass to focus on spots where mold was stubbornly clinging to the concrete. And after all that, the front walk looks like new! But the process was slow enough that I don't think this would be a good choice if your livelihood depending on the machine. But for my infrequent usage, it's fine.
The unit doesn't lack in power, and it's worth minding the manual's warning to test a small area first (and adjust the spray pattern); I noticed that in the process of getting the dirt off my garage floor, the cleaned-area's formerly very smooth concrete now had a slight but noticeable rough texture (by touch or eye).
Range is good; I was able to clean siding/gutters about 10 feet away, with the "fan" wand turned to its narrowest setting. But it wasn't able to clean the 2nd floor's siding (about 15 feet up).
There are some nice safety features over the last model I used, including a GFCI reset on the A/C adapter, and a recessed/sealed power switch.
One less-pleasing safety-feature is the trigger, which has to be held closed the whole time you're washing-- it takes a fair amount of tension to hold, and my hands notice the effort after 30-60 minutes use. This may also make this unit more suitable for home-use than for the pro who's washing all day long. There's a modest level of vibration through the pressure-hose and handle, which adds to the hand fatigue after extended usage.
Instructions are minimal, and don't discuss assembling the various plastic bits. But, I think they can safely assume anybody who wants to use a pressure washer has some degree of mechanical aptitude (or is willing to figure it out, at least). And being electric, there's no-muss no-fuss with gas or oil or draining things for storage...or the heavy environmental exhaust footprint of small engines.
I'll update this review if any leaks or failures develop later. Recommended for casual jobs for the homeowner. |
Never imagined it would work so well...................

| Well more than a month has gone by since i bought the pressure washer. Assembly was easy. I have washed the siding of my single level 3,000 sg ft house, my patio and sidewalks. Took it to my skeptical friends house. When he was done critisizing , I proceeded to clean all the mold and mildew from around his pools concrete. Then we cleaned his two large wood decks and sealed them. Oh well he did eat crow that day. Oh and I got the free case of beer proving my point to him. |
well worth money
