Overall a good product but I am on my second greenworks pressure washer and they both have had issues with the motor stopping, even after just 5 minutes of use. The only way to get the motor to reset is to unplug the unit at the power source and then plug it back in. Company support has been difficult to come by.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello JTSOUKUP
Thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear about this experience. We would truly be interested in hearing more about these issues. Especially, since it seems that you have two units experiencing the same problem. Please know that this pressure washer model carries a 3-year warranty from the date of purchase. If you are interested in discussing these issues directly with our team, please contact us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).
In the meantime, this issue can be caused by a few factors such as excess air trapped in the pump, clogged nozzles or no nozzle being installed. Here you will find some troubleshooting suggestions to resolve these issues. 1) To clean the nozzles, soak all of your nozzles in a half and half mixture of warm water and white vinegar. Soak all the nozzles for about an hour and then proceed to poke your nozzle cleaning tool or paper clip through the end of the nozzle hole to poke out any debris. After you have done this, rinse them with warm water. Your nozzles will now be free of any obstructions causing the unit to malfunction. 2) Purge any excess air from the pump. Set up the unit as per usual and ensure you are not using an extension cord. Remove any nozzle that may be connected at the end of the wand. Make sure that you have a green light on the GFCI on the power cord. Turn your garden hose on but leave the pressure washer turned OFF. With the pressure washer turned off, squeeze on the trigger for about 3 minutes – allowing the water to run through the unit at no pressure. In doing so, you are bleeding the unit out of any air that may be stuck in the pump. After 3 minutes, turn the unit on. If it is running, reinstall one of your clean nozzles and continue using the unit. 3) Ensure a nozzle is connected. 4) Ensure that the water source is fully opened and is at least 60PSI. 5) There should be 10' of unrestricted garden hose between the hose connection and the unit, any kinks will prevent the flow of water from going into the unit and prevent proper pressure. Please note this product has a 3-year warranty from the date of purchase. Hope this helps!

Pressure washer good wand bad

The pressure washer is quiet and is easy to operate as well as having good power. The trigger on the wand has back pressure when engaged which is fine if you are only using it for a few minutes. if you intend on holding that trigger for a longer time you will feel the pain. The design of the trigger also has a serious pinch point if your hand moves up and you release the trigger. Glad I have the wand from my old pressure washer. Customer service said this is a safety feature, I thin k it is a poor design.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this unit to pressure wash my large cement driveway and large cement patio areas and brick wall that surrounds the patio areas that had not been pressure washed for 40+ years. It did an amazing job removing years old grime, embedded moss and algae and was super easy to use! One area was under 3 pine trees and was covered with black pine sap, dirt and crud. This area now looks brand new after using the pressure washer. I highly recommend this pressure washer! It does a great job!

If you want an electric model, this is the one

Convenient, much quieter than gas powered and little to no maintenance. Hard pressed find a 3000 psi model in electric to begin with. And then this one has a great setup with a brushless design. Since the motor runs continuously whether you spray or not, that is critical to long life and energy savings. I have a 3000 psi gas powered pressure washer and it does have a higher water volume rating, but that seems to be largely irrelevant when making the comparison. The only difference I’ve seen is with the circular brush head. The gas model tends to lift the brush head up a little more allowing for easier movement. But does that mean the brush bristles are not making as good of contact with the concrete? Not sure. I do think the gas model is slightly better with the brush, but not a dealbreaker for me. If you were doing a 100’ driveway, maybe.
