Starting on
April 14th, there will be an instant $50 off coupon for this basic electric pressure washer.
This should be more than sufficient to clean most outdoor items.
- Redwood fencing
- Concrete patio/ pathways (very, very slowly)
- PERFECT for washing your car (granted, you're gonna need to spend some $ at Amazon for some upgrades: foam cannon, good soap, microfiber towels/ wash mitts, quick disconnects: these use m22-14 fittings)
** Do NOT expect the pressure of a gas pressure washer! This does about 1.2gpm. Check out Obsessed garage on YouTube for his observations on GreenWorks pressure washers (for washing cars).
** Similar to this model from the Greenworks website:

It's enough pressure for what you need it for around the house. The problem is the motor will surge like crazy, and typically cut out / overheat when it's most inconvenient.
The surging is typically air in it. Even if you run water through it without the pump on for over a minute, it still eventually surges when it encounters an air pocket. It seems to be impossible to purge the air out and avoid this.
Worse, though, is that it will cut out when you need it most. I foamed the side of my house one day. By the time I applied foam with my foam cannon, switched it out, grabbed a ladder and scrubbed with a brush, the pump on the pressure washer wouldn't work. It's like it overheated or something. No breakers were tripped, nor the GFI. Give it 10 minutes or so, it'll work for 2-3 minutes then cut off again.
I don't know if the new green works are better, but mine isn't THAT old. It looks just like these, and has acted up since day 1. Green works was no help at all, either.
That's a good question. Since the PSI is largely dictated by the nozzle at the end, induction vs brushed motor, number of pistons, piston bore, relative friction/clearance, and power draw.
Sounds about right. Low quality metals fracture due to cavitation. Did you vote for the right to repair bill? I'm sure there's some dumpster pile filled with broken sunjoe pressure washers... also there's no formal requirement that a 3000 psi pressure washer actually gets to 3000 psi..

BUT, if you're not a professional detailer... It's hard to spend the $1000+ on just the unit. If you wash your car every weekend (or a few times a week), then definitely get the Kranzle. The GPM is much higher than these "home owner" units. The pumps on these will last for thousands of hours whereas the Ryobis and Green works will last hundreds of hours.
Kranzle sounds legit. You know a good place to find them on sale? Obsessed Garage sells em at full price it seems, for like $1500 out the door. Heard he had a 10% off black Friday deal, last year. What about the AR630-TSS? Seems to have good gpm for the money. I just wish it came with a movable cart.
