Handy Exterior Cleaning Tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I received the power washer late. In the season I was able to put it to the test washing the car. I installed detergent in the attachable soap canister for the prewash, which worked great to remove stuck on bugs, etc. washed the car by hand and rinsed with the wide spray nozzle. Great size and easy portability make it perfect for cars and cleaning decks, etc. A more powerful sprayer would be best for multi-story house cleaning. While cleaning the car I tested it on the house. Although great for the first story, it had trouble reaching the top of the second floor and eaves.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This a a great product.
It is lightweight and very easy to use.
I own several Greenworks products they all work flawlessly and do a great job.
I pressure washed my deck and my house, the handle was easy to hold on and my hands didn’t get tired and sore like when I used my old washer.
It is very quiet which my neighbor commented about.

Great Pressure Washer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice compact pressure washer with a powerful punch! Great for household chores like stone patios, sidewalks, siding, etc. Enough power to do a thorough job. Lightweight and easy to set up and maneuver. I am very happy with the performance of this pressure washer and it's reasonably priced.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful for its size with nice features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pressure washer was very easy to set up. I used it to wash my back deck to prepare it for repainting. I also used it to clean the stone pavers under the deck. I was able to easily remove old paint, dirt and moss. I used the 40 degree tip. It was very easy to control as I could aim the water jet exactly where I needed to. I like that the tips are stored directly on the unit. Water was spraying out from the sides while I was using it but maybe that was because I didn’t tighten the connection enough. Overall, a very good piece of equipment.

Don’t underestimate

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly didn’t think this unit would be powerful enough for what I wanted to use it for, but I was wrong. I immediately put it to work and it’s a pretty powerful little unit. I’ve always used gas powered units but this electric unit held its own.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Impressive unit for its size

Although I've longed for a pressure-washer for some time, I have not bought one because I've always considered them to be cumbersome & costly, for occasional use. The Greenworks GPW1501 has removed those objections.
As others have already mentioned, it's a compact unit and frankly, unpacking it, I felt there was going to be issues with it not being powerful enough but reading the quick-start guide was a breeze and I set-to cleaning the north-facing elevation of vinyl siding, uncleaned for at least eight years and showing lichen & algal growth from nearby bushes. I did have to snip a few branches away to get a clear shot of the vinyl but once sorted, connected water & power and switched on, having connecting the green nozzle.
As I mentioned, I haven't used a power-washer before but have seen those (misleading) TV ads which show sprays shooting almost over the roof, so you can imagine my disappointment when, standing at the edge of the lawn with the nozzle about 2 feet away from the siding, there just appeared to be a spray exiting the nozzle without any force on the siding! So wondering if I was doing something wrong, I checked the booklet and tried again but this time with the nozzle about 4" from the siding. What a difference!!
Without using the detergent-bottle, the resultant force just stripped the lichen & algae cleanly from the siding. What a relief! The alternative crossed my mind that I might have to use a bucket & brush to scrub it clean and I wasn't looking forward to that!
I proceeded to clean the front siding, inner porch ceiling (in which PVC), the door-frame & door, the porch wooden floor and two pillars and finally, two stone-steps and granite-cobbled pathway. The unit performed flawlessly although I did get into a tangle at one point with hose & electric-lead but that was user-error!
I have just three observations to add as a 'wish-list' to suggest as improvements.
1) Extended wand-length.
2) Better, less-kinking pressure-hose.
3) Taller unit from base to handle-top.
1) Extended wand-length.
2) Better, less-kinking pressure-hose.
3) Taller unit from base to handle-top.
I am 6'2" with about 3' arm-reach and standing at the edge of the lawn/border and using the standard want, I was unable to spray within the useful 4-6" needed, to clean beneath the eaves. In the end I did what I could but bushes in the way would make ladder-use very awkward. If there was an additional 4' extension within the unit (if it didn't affect the power-output), I think anyone could clean their single-storey property easily.
The pressure-hose from unit to wand, could do with being a non-kink variety of material ... similar to some of those TV ads for metallic hoses ... since even though I unwound it to straighten before use, it was cold outside and moving from place to place, just caused loops to form from it's memory.
Coiling-up the electric-cable and the pressure-hose after use could perhaps, be improved upon if the unit itself could accommodate the winding, rather than a (usefully included) velcro strap for the hose & a plastic-tie for the cable. To house the windings though, I think the units should be a bit taller.
None of the suggestions though should detract anyone from considering to buy this unit. In fact I was quite shocked to see how little it cost AFTER using it and posting this review.

Great little machine for the size !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had no problems what so ever with this machine , easy to put together and hook up , instructions were easy to read and understand, power cord and hose was a good length, this machine had plenty of power for its size , would be good for smaller jobs like washing your car , spraying off lawn furniture, spraying off your boat , power washing your deck , you can see I did try it on a patio (see pictures) probably could get more off if I spent more time on it , also used it to spray off the rocks in my pond , only thing I would recommend would be like a 0° or 15° nozzle with it to get the tougher stains out, it comes with a 25° and 40° . Would also like a way to wrap the power cord up on it better too. But overall I did like using it .
