This brand was the only to offer a slick-looking reel for the high-pressure hose. Unfortunately, this feature is nearly impossible to use without getting stuck. The design of the reel exerts extra pressure by bending the hose, and once the hose gets in Champion Power Equipment a bit of a tangle the reel is basically useless. It would have been a far better experience if they completely removed this feature. If it weren’t for the gas-leaking incident, we may have been able to overlook its quirks when compared to the Generac.
While this gas pressure washer comes dis-assembled, you can easily assemble the components and start using it within 5 to 10 minutes. You get all the necessary tools and accessories required for installation along with the pressure washer. This gas pressure washer features a trolley-style mobile design that allows for maximum portability.
The Westinghouse WPX3200, however, has very comfortable spacing, allowing for significantly easier connections. The hose included with the Westinghouse WPX3200 is twenty-five feet long and is simple to wrap up and store, thanks to a large plastic hook on the back of the machine. Moreover, storing the nozzle is incredibly easy thanks to a divot atop the handle.
The easiest method is through an on-board tank where the soap or detergent can be stored. Another method includes the use of a bottle that is filled with the soap or detergent and attached to the end of the wand, making it heavier. The most basic method just includes a hose; for these, you need to figure out how to secure the bottle.
Blubery’s gas pressure washer is powered by a heavy-duty 212CC 4-stroke OHV horizontal shaft 7 HP engine with a recoil start. It offers a power of 3500 PSI and a water flow of 2.6 GPM to have strong cleaning power, which is quite adequate to clean stubborn dirt. In recent years, a couple of companies have released cordless pressure washers. These units come with portable water supplies and offer completely untethered pressure washing . We cleaned concrete floors, wood decks, both wood and resin furniture, and outdoor tables. This gave us a chance to see how their advertised power rating translated to actual cleaning effectiveness.
Overall, this pressure washer feels lower in quality than the others. The other electric models are made of mostly plastic too, but it really stands out on this machine, to the point of being almost toy-like. There’s a glimpse of hope for higher-quality parts with the water-supply hookup port, but it turned out to be just chromed plastic and not a stainless steel part.
Simply, you have to adjust them as required to operate the washer for different cleaning tasks. GPM – Gallons Per Minute will let you know how many gallons of water is flowing through the pressure washer in a minute. Simply, the larger the GPM number, the greater will be its water output. The washer features a trolley-style mobile design allowing for portability.
Although it has the same long hose and cord as our main pick, this Ryobi washer is much smaller, weighing around 20 pounds (as opposed to 50-ish pounds). Being so small and light, it’s a design that you can carry around by the convenient top handle, and it’s much easier to stow away when you’re not using it. The drawbacks are that it lacks the premium induction motor of our main pick, so it may not last as long, and it isn’t as powerful.
