Cord circuit CONSTANTLY pops stopping washer
on September 15, 2018
Posted by: Dski

If zero stars was an option, that would be my rating. I am having the same problems as many of the other reviewers. I bought this washer a month ago. We used it once to try to power wash our house. We kept having problems with it popping the gfci on the cord. We were finally able to use it only with the 40 degree tip. I tried to use it again today to wash bricks. It keeps stopping after 5 to 10 seconds of use. Please do not respond to me as you have with other folks about not using an extension cord or needing 30 amp service!! Nowhere does it say this on the product or advertising. If it did, I wouldn't have bought it! Fix the product...that's the problem. Save your money and just use your garden hose and a nozzle, it will work better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Electric Preessure Washer!

Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item free for providing a review. I used it to pressure wash my patio. It performed well. Good pressure. light weight. The wheels really made it easy to move around my 18x12 patio space. Removed greenish gunk from corner that always shaded with little effort. Also make short work of cleaning car tires!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Keeps blowing breaker

I have tried everything closer to circuit, nothing else on 20 amp circuit, it just keeps blowing after a few min of use.
Started at my sons house and then it worked fine after 24 hours for two cleanings and then back to blowing breaker...very frustrating...

Keeps tripping the inline GFCI
on September 4, 2018
Posted by: u352
from Maryland
Gender:Male
After running 15-20 minutes the GCFI on the power cord trips. The longer I wait before resuming spraying the longer it will go before tripping again. Like the motor has to cool off or something. The washer is NOT plugged into a GCFI house circuit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

worked wonderful for about 2 1/2 years w/occasional use. psi suddenly fell off quickly. Pressure was not much more than a water hose. I feel I have not abused this item and should have lasted longer. guess pump is shot!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Daniel Landis
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review but we’re sad to hear this product left you feeling disappointed.
Pressure washer nozzles come in different styles. Nozzles with smaller holes put out more pressure, and nozzles with bigger holes put out less pressure. These different nozzles with their different pressures can be useful for different tasks.
If the smaller hose of the nozzle becomes clogged, the more clogged it becomes, the smaller the hole becomes, which means higher pressure. Higher pressure means more work for the engine and the pump. If you are finding the pressure washer is not function as expected we suggest clearing the blockage in your nozzle and prevent over-exerting your pressure washer, follow these few steps.
Remove the nozzle, if you clear the blockage without taking the nozzle off, it’ll likely just clog again, using the spray tip cleaning tool or a straightened paperclip try digging and poking the blockage backwards out of the hole. Hold the nozzle by the sides with the front of the nozzle facing you. Using the spray tip cleaning tool or the paperclip, try pushing the clog back the way it came. Rinse the nozzle thoroughly front and back; replace the nozzle and go.
If the nozzle remains clogged, remove it and try clearing it out again. Just remember that reversing the clog is the best way to unclog it. Push it back the way it came from. If you have a lot of trouble getting it unclogged, try soaking it in hot water and then attempt it again.
If you are using an extension cord then use a 25' 12 gauge. If you really need to push it then a 50' 12 or 10 gauge but if you notice any loss in performance, stop using the cord immediately. We recommend nothing longer than 50'.
Lastly, if the pressure washer pulsates and the water stream is intermittent turn the pressure washer off and continue to bleed air out of the system.
If there is anything we can help with, do not hesitate to let us know. We can be reached at 1-888-909-6757 or by email on info@greenworkstools.com

Hunk of Junk
on August 25, 2018
Posted by: Frustrated_Jenn
from Atlanta, Ga
This is terrible! I am trying to pressure wash my front stoop and it will wash for about 2 mins and then flip the internal gfci in the unit. Not the switch in the outlet or my breaker. It is the only thing plugged in and no extension cord. I have had to reset it more than 20x to just halfway wash a 4x6 cement pad. Never, ever buy this product
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
