If you have (relatively) low pressure washer needs this is a fantastic item (bought it for $130 in 2018 and it is still functional.) It takes a wide variety of attachments and works very well for small to medium jobs like foaming your car, driveway work, or clearing old paint off of a deck. Electric jobs will never have the performance of gas powered, but keeping that in mind I very much suggest this. Usage note: unwind the hose BEFORE using it, as it's awkward AF otherwise.
Best thing to use is a brush. But almost no one does that because it's so much work. If you use a power washer to clean your siding, you need to be really conscious of how your siding overlaps. Otherwise you are injecting water at high pressure underneath your siding. Especially at the corners of your house. If you are close to an inside corner, you should use a brush to remove algae or mildew.
Same thing for your soffit, the underside of the overhang from the roof. Many have vent holes in them, so again you don't want to inject water into the structure of your roof, which is most likely OSB, think wood scraps held together with glue. Hot roof + water = rotted roof.

I have the same pressure washer. Purchased in 2017. It still works great, 1 flaw is it fluctuates in pressure. I just keep using it and eventually it stops. Not sure if it's my water source with its 100 foot hose or connecting the pressure washer to an extension cord. Might even be I have a 50 foot hose on the reel. I'll someday figure it out.
I have this and it is good for the price but won't pressure wash your drive way like you see on YouTube. It took me hours and hours since it is not as strong
If you have (relatively) low pressure washer needs this is a fantastic item (bought it for $130 in 2018 and it is still functional.) I think I like the dark. It takes a wide variety of attachments and works very well or small to medium jobs like foaming your car, driveway work, or clearing old paint off of a deck. Electric jobs will never have the performance of gas powered, but keeping that in mind I very much suggest this. Usage note: unwind the hose BEFORE using it, as it's awkward AF otherwise.
Never? Do you know how electricity works? Ever heard of 20amps, or even 220v? Never say never.
Had a Sun Joe pressure washer (purchased here), used a few times, and now seems to be dead (the power cord shuts down detecting a short, but will momentarily turn on for a second.) Granted, it was left outdoors, but never exposed to water directly. Didn't want to mess with it to avoid electrocution. Thoughts how to troubleshoot?
Would this be appropriate for cleaning algae from vinyl siding? I've never owned either before. TIA
And has anyone else ever gotten an error at check-out that the add-on protection plan "isn't available in your area" or know what that's about? That's a new one for me.

I use this every couple of years just for this reason. It does a good job on the algae, it just takes longer/more effort due to lower pressure. For 88 bucks it's a great deal because of the mower to ground profile that keeps it from tipping over. That's the main reason I bought it. As someone else mentioned, my pressure fluctuates and sometimes takes 10-30 seconds to get to max pressure which is annoying but that's probably due to length of hose from the house and I added the sun Joe hose extension to the pressure washer.
Bought for $129 Jan 2022 (previous deal on here). Still going strong. I'd go for it at this price. I will note the reel handle breaks easy, but cheap replacement available online and I also bought a 25' extension hose and $20 foam cannon on Amazon. If you're buying an extension hose make sure you get exact match based on sun joe specs, the first few Amazon hoses i ordered claimed they would work but fittings were incorrect
