[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pressure washer was a new favorite tool of mine right from the start. First, out of the box, assembly was so simple, only 7 minutes to put it together! Our house, walkway to the back, and pool patio were in desperate need of cleaning. First I sprayed the surfaces with pressure washer cleaning solution. Let it set for 10 to 15 minutes. To rinse the walks and patio I used the turbo nozzle, it worked like a champ. The siding on the house is a bit more delicate, I used the 25° tip and didn't get too close as to not damage the stucco. The wand is very well-balanced; no arm fatigue. The machine runs smoothly, is quiet, not heavy, compact, and very easy to maneuver. There is ample hose (that doesn't get kinked) and ample power cord. For a job that I was not looking forward to, GreenWorks Pressure Washer made the job easy and rewarding to see such wonderful results. GreenWorks power washer is definitely worth owning. Thank you GreenWorks for great "green" tools.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What can I say the pressure washer performed well. It was easy to assemble, and easy to use. I actually had fun using the pressure washer and the different tips that it comes with. It did an amazing job on my front porch and driveway. I also used it around the front door and porch area. It made the entrance area look new, like I just painted. I believe that it was mostly a type of mold that was being removed and I feel that, that in itself would be worth the purchase. What I appreciate about the electric pressure washer is that it is literally maintenance free, no oil or gas to deal with. Cant wait to wash my car :)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found it very user friendly and easy to put together. It works really well for a 2000 PSI unit. I've only ever had gas pressure washers at higher PSI before. I've so far pressure washed the north side of my house, my grill, and my back patio. I still wear hearing protection but honestly the few minutes I did use it without ear plugs it was no louder than a shop vacuum cleaner. The turbo tip makes quick work for larger areas.
The kink free hose seems to be just that which is nice.
A bonus is that it it works with all my other accessories I had from previous gas powered pressure washers.
There are a few minor things I would change on it though. There is no valve to shut off the siphoning of the soap so you either have to pour it out or disconnect the feed going to the tank when you want to switch over to clean water. Well I guess you could pour in only what you needed to start with but I didn't think that far ahead. None of my previous pressure washers had a built in tank, so I looked around and for some reason most pressure washers with built in tanks don't have a way to select soap/no soap settings. It doesn't come with what is usually the red tip which is the narrowest and highest strength tip, but you can buy those if you need one. The power cord hanger really should have a top and bottom L bracket so you can wrap the cord around the two vs this design where it just hangs off the one L bracket.
Long term I think I will add a shut off valve going to the tank which would make it perfect for washing cars and other small projects where you are not likely to run out of the soap you added to the container.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pressure washer is a nice lightweight size and easy to move around. I just got it and so far have only used it on my driveway. It worked very well removing the existing stains.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The instructions are very clear and provide applicable warnings for use. The pressure washer is easy to assemble! It is quite versatile in providing variable pressures and spray width by changing nozzles. It did a great job in cleaning the exterior of my house! It also came in handy in removing sap on some wood boards!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great electric pressure washer from Greenworks. I had no issues with how the unit was packaged. Easy assembly in a few simple steps. I was able to connect the garden hose with no leaks while using the unit. The unit comes with quick connect spray tips to quickly change tips to fixed angles - a feature that I liked. The 4 spray tips are the right combination for handling multiple jobs. The unit maintains pressure and automatically shuts off without any issues during use.
Detergent tank works great with the black soap spray tip with consistent feeding of soap while using the pressure washer. Tank holds approximately 1/2 gallon, which would have been nice to be listed as a spec in the manual to know how much prior to filling.
Electric good has great length, however one minor annoyance is where the GFI unit is located along the cord. The weight pulls the prongs out of the outlet, unless you use an extension cord or support the GFI unit as it comes out of the outlet.
Teardown and storage was simple. Pressure hose and electric cord storage are not over designed and easy to wrap up to store. Pressure gun storage and spray tip storage hold all components securely without having to worry about something falling out while transporting.
Cleaning power is still less than gas powered, but with electric you don't have to worry about the maintenance. Overall, I was very impressed with this unit and definitely recommend for anyone looking for an electric pressure washer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this pressure washer. It is easy to set up, easy to use, and surprisingly powerful. I got this a week or so ago and took advantage of the first warm weather that we have had to do some spring cleaning. I used the turbo nozzle to clean a seasons worth (or more) of dirt and grime off on my painted wood deck and teak table and chair set. In about an hour, from start to finish, the 2000 psi electric pressure washer had them both looking great. The painted deck was cleaned, without removing the paint, although it was clearly powerful enough to do that if you got the spray close enough so you could use it to strip if you wanted, and the teak looks better than it has in years!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this about a week ago and after a few uses already, I can't seem to any major downsides. I'm not sure I will ever use my gas powered pressure again. Easy to operate and gets all general outdoors tasks completed quickly. Especially great for my vehicle wheels and my grill grates! Much quieter than my gas washer and NO exhaust!
