Pressure washer surface cleaner works great!

I bought this along with a Westinghouse pressure washer and used both for the first time today to clean my concrete porch and sidewalk. The surface cleaner works surprising well, leaving a noticeable clean stripe wherever I used it. It's fairly lightweight, so not hard to use. I found it worked best to push it forward, then pull it back over the same spot for effective cleaning in most areas. For a few stubborn spots I just moved the cleaner over the area a couple more time. The surface cleaner is major time saver versus doing the same area with just a spray nozzle.
I bought the plastic 15" surface cleaner for my pool pavers and front walkway. I wanted to see if it would make a difference. Unbelievable! Fantastic job! I used half the water and completed the job in half the time versus using the wand itself.
Only one fair warning though...if you are tall, you will need an extension wand to save your back:)
I had to power wash my patio and I would typically just clean each individual stone with the hose, but after using the Westinghouse surface cleaner, it completely transformed how I power wash. It was so much easier, quicker, and more efficient and the deck looks amazing!
The power washer attachment was ok, but not great. It is easy to use and moves like a vacuum cleaner. It is great for getting off light dirt and would make it easy to power wash your patio once a month to prevent build up. However, it did a very poor job on the dirt tire tracks on my white paver driveway left by the landscaping company. I had to use the wand to really get the tracks off.
I have a 3200 PSI gas powered washer, but in reality, it is only 3200 using the most narrow head and kept very close to the ground. Wider heads and further distance from the surface may mean 3000 of 2800 or less PSI. So, when you attach that to the circular cleaner with two spinning heads, maybe you only get 2000 PSI. Its max capacity is 4400 PSI, so maybe it works much better with that. When I had a professional wash my driveway, theirs did great, but it was probably a commercial accessory with a 5000 PSI source.
Just be aware before you buy it.
In the attached photo, I show the poor cleaning job of the attachment. In the red circle is where I used the want to clean it properly. You can see the huge difference
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello, thank you for your review, we are sorry to hear about your experience, we understand the frustration. Unfortunately, you are correct that the more PSI and GPM you are able to provide the better the surface cleaner works. For smaller pressure washers like the one you have we recommend a smaller one as it is able to better utilize the pressure and water flow it will provide. The smaller the pressure washer the more concentrate the surface cleaner needs to be. If there is anything we can do to assist, please let us know at 1-855-944-3571 or support@wpowereq.com. Thank you, Zach
