For years I used a gas powered pressure washer, but if it went unused for a while, the carburetor would be gummed up and need to be overhauled. This electric unit has all the power I need, and it's maintenance-free, not to mention much easier to set up, start, and put away afterwards.
Ordered this unit online and it was very easy to put together with just a Philips screw driver. The build seems rugged enough and the cord is sufficiently long so you don't need to move the unit too much. It's compact and moves easily for storage. The only negative I have is that the power cord is rather rigid so if the temperature is below 70F it has a mind of its own.
My pressure washer was delivered yesterday, and I wasted no time in getting it assembled and putting it to use. Easy to assemble; 1/2 hour. Used the soap feature, then the 25 degree nozzle to clean approximately 1000 sq. ft. of concrete walkway and decking. Quiet (as compared to my gas engine unit), and enough power to clean deep if needed. Very pleased with this washer.
I bought this to upgrade from an old Husky 1550psi electric washer I've had for many years. I bought this one because it has high pressure for an electric and also for the form factor. My old unit was compact and did not manage the cable, hose, and gun. This one has a place for everything, yet is still rather compact in terms of taking up garage space. The soap reservoir is an awesome upgrade, too. I'm very pleased with the purchase. I've used it a few times now.
