Bought this a couple days ago, works fantastic. Easy to put together.
I purchased this unit due to the many good reviews it has received. I'm glad I did, as it is a sturdy, well-built machine. I used it to pressure wash my house recently, and it performed flawlessly. Much more powerful than my old Excel 2300 psi unit with Honda engine. Some positive attributes are: 1) Very easy to remove fuel from carburetor for winter storage with the fuel shut-off switch and bowl drain. 2) Heavy-duty Triplex pump will last many years. 3) Very sturdy frame and tires makes it easy to maneuver. Some not so positive attributes are: 1) The cover to the muffler should be painted something other than black. Looks similar to the air filter housing and gas tank, so I mistakenly placed my hand on it while standing back up from filling the soap dispenser - won't do that again. 2) The soap dispenser tank is difficult to access as it is located directly under the water hose connection. Overall a very good unit - would highly recommend.
Bought a few weeks ago. It’s a big engine to pull start, and a bit difficult at first, but keeping low pressure in the tank is key. Easy to assemble as well, and it works well. Complaint is the written (and on-line) manual does not match the new build of this machine. So a few things, including how to use the cleaning solution tubes, is not included, nor intuitive for those of use who have not had a gas power washer before. Due to the out of fate manual, parts listing etc has it’s issues.
Overall, I think machine is (can be) great. I just don’t know how to use all its features.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I recently bought one of these and tried to start it today. I couldn't get the engine going after so many attempts. I tried releasing the gas in the nozzle like the Quickstart Guide tells you to, I choked the engine etc. to no avail. Then, after watching a YouTube video, someone recommended putting the chokebar to "Run" after the first attempt (not after actually managing to start the engine like the Guide recommends). When I put it to Run (while it was not running yet), in the first go I got it to start. So you can give that a try.
I purchased this pressure washer to replace another brand that I had owned for years. This one has much more cleaning power than the other brand and has a true Triplex Pump! The build quality is excellent and comes with a 3 year warranty too. I've known the word Westinghouse since I was a child. I believe that growing up in the late 1960s and 70s we had Westinghouse kitchen appliances. I highly recommend this WPX3600 and yes I would buy it again.
