Anyone has this and can comment on the quality of unit? The price looks great. I'm looking to purchase this for cleaning backyard pavers and car washes.

Sun Joe as a brand always overstates specs. This one is 1600 PSI "max", which is the instantaneous pressure for a split second when you first turn it on. Its actual rating, using the industry standard that everyone else uses, is only 1150 PSI of sustained, usable pressure. (https://shopjoe.com/products/sun-...her-11-amp)

Also, the rated GPM is 1.1 for it.

I always read the Manual or look for the Manual because they will usually show the Rated PSI and Rated GPM since those are usually the truthful numbers aren't pretty to look at and advertise.

I had a different unit that started leaking immediately and couldn't supply enough water to pressurize. To their credit, Sun Joe was excellent about sending out a replacement, but that had the same issue almost instantly. To the landfill.

Spent a couple more bucks on a Karcher and it's been pretty good for an electric pressure washer. Based on my experience and the shear amount of shilling these guys do on SD (almost every Sun Joe "deal" is staff posted), I will never trust this brand or buy again.

Thanks, your comments were super helpful. I decided to pass on this deal and will wait for a bit more capable washer.
