Pretty solid washer

Seems like a pretty good pressure washer, I noted the following things - the fuel tank was dented when I opened the box and took the washer out - I had a hard time initially starting it, but replacing the plug and using some starter fluid I was able to get it going and once it was broken and it started a lot easier - the bolts holding the pump to the gas engine were pretty loose and when I initially ran it for a break-in period a couple were vibrating out by the time the 30 minutes was over. I had to get some Loctite and tighten them all down.
I have been using this pressure washer with my pressure washing company. The handle broke after 3 days of use and the motor struggles to turn and requires more pulls than other Pressure Washers. Overall the pressure washer works well and can complete jobs but doesn't seem 100% Reliable. Good for starting out, not for longevity.
I've used it twice so far. It was easy to assemble. Makes quick work of my vinyl siding and fencing. Has enough power to get the job done quickly and accurately. Great assortment of nozzles and all the parts seem to have good quality. I have no complaints.
the WPX3800 really fit the bill for my needs as it's got the power to run a 20" surface cleaner for driveway cleaning and the ability to handle all of my other homeowner tasks (washing siding, cleaning furniture, cleaning the deck, etc.) without being too much machine! Very pleased so far.
