Best Buy [bestbuy.com] has Greenworks Electric Pressure Washer up to 1900 PSI at 1.2 GPM (Green) for $119.99. Shipping is Free

Product Description from Store
  • With up to 1,900 PSI at 1.2 GPM, the Greenworks GPW1900 pressure washer is perfect for light- to medium-duty clean-up of windows, vehicles, grills, patio furniture and decking. With a powerful 13-amp universal motor, axial cam pump, and hassle-free, push-button starts, you'll get to work fast, with no priming, no choke, and no pull cord. Just plug the 35-foot power cord into any typical exterior household outlet. This quiet-running, lightweight, compact, easy-to-store pressure washer features a rugged open steel frame and Total Stop System (TSS) that senses water flow in the pump; when the trigger is released, water stops flowing through the pump, and TSS automatically turns the motor off to protect against overheating. With a 25-foot, non-marring, high-pressure hose, on-board soap tank with built-in detergent system, and on-board accessory storage with 25-egree and 40-degree nozzles, turbo nozzle, and soap nozzle tips, it's versatile, portable, and powerful.

It'll work to clean dirty pavement but will take a lot longer than a more powerful pressure washer.

Might want to pair it with a surface cleaner, like this: https://www.greenworkstools.com/p...-5207402vt
Unlike other brands of electric pressure washers that advertise "max" pressure and "max" flow numbers that are unachievable in real life, Greenworks is certified to actually produce the 1900psi at 1.2gpm that they claim.
I had this and it worked for more than 3 years, with washing at least one car a day. Heavy use can't get this thing broken.

Looks like the page is down, but I'd bet that the certification process is just little more involved than one unit run off an unknown extension cord out in some guy's driveway with a bucket and pressure gauge of unknown quality and calibration.

But even with his unscientific testing, hitting 90% of the claim is pretty impressive and a hell of a lot better than the "max" numbers versus real numbers of some manufacturers.
Right, on the 3000. What about 90 percent of this one? It would be banging at 1710.psi. The PWMA is nothing more than a meaningless sales tactic.

Why are you assuming that your video guy's driveway test on one unit of one model would be more significant than the standardized lab tests required for PWMA certification? And of course PWMA certification is good for sales, as it means that consumers can trust the claims made by the manufacturer.

It was a PWMA certified Greenworks pressure washer. If that stamp was worth anything, that 3000 Psi pressure washer wouldn't have went down to 2700 PSI as soon as he pulled the trigger. Seems to be about as reliable as the PWMA website.

You will want to find a brushless motor. Only Greenworks Pro line has it.

A standardized lab test is done in a very controlled environment, not some guys driveway.

That difference in measured performance could be from any number of things, from improper break-in, to extension cord voltage drop, to hose water supply, to the gauge he used and how it was hooked up, to the amount of water he spilled out of his bucket or maybe it's as simple as the one particular individual unit he tested was just a little off.

Real scientific testing accounts for these things and tests several units multiple times to arrive at accurate numbers.

He used a pressure gauge to measure the PSI. It showed 3000 (as advertised), until he engaged the trigger then it dropped to 2700. No more information is needed. A 3000 PSI PWMA certified pressure washer leveled out at around 2700 during real world usage.

Reality = People aren't buying pressure washers in a "very controlled environment" in some lab. They're buying it to use on driveways, houses, cars, etc... If the PWMA seal only means in labs, then it's useless.

Do you really not understand that one guy's unscientific, unstandardized, uncalibrated and potentially flawed driveway test on one single particular unit is relatively insignificant in regards to how these pressure washers generally perform?

How you can rest your whole argument on that one home video from a guy who mows lawns for a living is mind-boggling. If you can find someone that tests several of these units in controlled conditions with calibrated equipment, then you might have something to stand on.

Okay, show me one of these hitting specs in a controlled and calibrated test. Can't wait to see it.

I don't have to. That's what the PWMA certification is all about. They do the testing and if it meets the specifications, they get to slap that fancy logo on the box so consumers know that they can trust that they are getting what was advertised.

Compare to a brand without such certification like Sun Joe. On their SPX3000, for example, they advertise "2030 PSI + 1.76 GPM max", but that PSI is at no flow and that GPM is at no pressure. Their actual rated operating pressure and flow is 1450 PSI at 1.24 GPM, quite a bit lower than what it says on the box.

Just like the Greenworks didn't perform as listed on the box....

There also doesn't appear to be a PWMA anymore. But then again, you keep going on about how important their seal is, so you must know something that many others who use pressure washers don't.

There're dozens of reasons why that amateur's driveway test on one unit may not have quite measured up, though it sure did come close. But yeah, you got me, the PWMA website is down...

I think the major point you're missing is that the PWMA testing was done in a controlled environment and likely under specific conditions. Just because one guy on YouTube does a single test, does not mean his unit (or any other units from the same model line) cannot hit the numbers that PWMA certified it for. There are tons of variables that could have affected his results and brought the numbers down. Hitting 90% is pretty darn good if you ask me. It's kind of like when you a buy a car. It'll be EPA rated for XX MPG, but that doesn't mean you're always going to hit XX MPG, because there are too many variables that can affect it. You may do better, you may do worse, depending on your situation.

Really good price for a brand name electric pressure washer. Great for cleaning cars or outdoor furniture. It can definitely clean a driveway but be prepared to spend all morning and have a sore back after doing it. 100% recommend a surface cleaner attachment if you plan on doing driveways, it will cut the time in half if not more. It won't come out looking pristine and there will always be streaks but at least it will get the HOA off your back =) .

A lot of these electric pressure washers try to fool you with PSI but the GPM is more important when it comes to cleaning. More water is what you want, not more power. The electric pressure washers are limited by our 120v outlets so there's only so much power they can produce. Pretty much all electrics are going to get a max of 1.2 GPM unless you're willing to spend a lot more. That being said, electrics are much easier to maintain (no oil, gas, carburetor issues) and are way more energy efficient. Gas is such a hassle most of the time that I use my electric for most jobs except once a year on the driveway. I'd say if you don't already have a pressure washer to just get this one, gas ones are like $300 and I can't justify that price tag for a job I'd only do once or twice a year.

I think the major point you're missing is that you're claiming a non-existent organization is telling you your pressure washer meets their certification, even though real world performance indicates otherwise. Unfortunately, you and your buddy don't know any better and want to tell people that little mark on the package is credible. Meanwhile, the pressure on a "certified" device dropped to 90 percent efficiency as soon as the trigger was pilled. Also, 90 percent isn't good if it's certified to do 10 percent more by this organization that went under that you think is credible. Meanwhile, it's not a standard used by other major brands. Just brands like Powerworks and Greenworks that are affiliated.

The amateur is the one telling everybody that an organization that went under is credible. You were clearly just talking out of your behind. Visit pwma.org [pwma.org] for more information. Oh wait, it's a dead link....
