After having my few years old Audi A5 detailed I wanted to maintain the shine and smoothness. I wanted to "Snow Foam" wash it regularly. Your 1700 was easily the only way I could get their for even close to my budget! But on sale with everything I needed except the soap? Incredible! And after watching many videos on snow foaming by professionals using bigger expensive units I was thrilled with the results from this inexpensive little thing! Best and easiest car wash I have ever done myself for over 60 years!
Do you have an adapter so the handle can attach other accessories with the standard quick connect without using the long wand?
I've read the numerous reviews regarding this unit arbitrarily shutting down and I too had this problem but after I switched from using a cheap 3/8 inch hose to a heavy duty 3/4 inch hose I haven't had an issue with unexpected shutdowns. This unit works well for jobs around the house. Very pleased.
This machine is amazing. It is the most useful machine I own. I'm in south Florida and mold forms on wood fences and pavers. Weeds love Florida. This machine lets me take care of all of that with just water. No poisonous weed killers. No detergents. Nothing. Just water. Gets the moths off the house. The lizard poop off the deck. I'm telling you this machine is the best investment I've ever made! I'm 62 and did all that work. Just wish there was a way to keep the handle locked on as my hand gets tired before I do.
Love the high pressure, now you can have the same pressure as gas with the ease of electric. Works great and built to last, easy to assemble. Love this pressure washer.
