This is the 3rd surface cleaner I have purchased. The first two were made of plastic. This one is made of stainless steel. Solid construction, parts fit together nicely without issue. I have not used this on my driveway yet, but have used it to clean my 34' X 24' rear wood deck. Does a good job with surface cleaning. Easy to handle. It is as I would have expected from a Westinghouse product. A solid brand with a long history of quality products.
