Going to buy a pressure washer - suggestions?
- Thread starter The Joker
- Start date
Well maybe 4-5 times. Mine is a Craftsman..2550PSI, 2.5 GPM and 6.5 HP. It does everything I want it to. I think it was about $400.
What brand? Any features I need to be aware of? Are some overpiced or are they pretty much worth for what they offer? Plan on using for all different types of jobs 1st one being the front porch by stripping paint off wood.
just bought a karcher 1550 psi from one of the shopping networks...36 ft cord...multiple nozzles...only weighs around 8 pounds...
doing the deck/shed/fence next week...i`ll let you know how it goes....

I'll go look tomorrow at the brand and stats. they aren't what you think they are but I use mine about 5 times a year and have had it about 5 years. It's my 2nd one.
Mine will strip paint but not as easy as you think it will or as easy as they say it will.

Get one w/ a Honda engine would be my only suggestion. You will have a lot less troubles w/ their engines.
Yeah - I am figuring on 5 times a year. Going to move this year and may need it more-who knows????

if you are going to invest in one get a good one..
2600 to 3600 PSI
NO flimsy BS handles.
NO jive ass little hoses..
have washed houses..decks..patios..driveways for over 20 years..
do not waste your money on BS supposed high grade pressure washers..
will show you guys some great ones.
decent PW will cost around $300.00 at the very least..and that it low end of those good enough for household chores.

it`s just for residential use...one time a year..or every other year...
i`m not paying 4 times the price for something that i really don`t need just to prove how big my dick is....
2500 psi for my purposes is overkill...just not necessary..
