Yes. The little shuttle valve that kicks in the motor was the worst part of it. I used to pop the tip off and it would try to work, put it back and stall again. Climb up the top of an extension ladder and the bastard won't start pumping, back down, mess with it, on and on. No help from Karcher. I felt sorry for the guy that bought it. Tickled with my Greenworks 1800 psi. It has a 50 ft hose, I can pick it up with one hand and run with it. So happy I went and got a Ryobi battery weedwacker and threw my 25 year old Homelite in the trash.

Borrowed my buddies DeWalt pressure washer to try out. Looking for something at the property where I don't have power. Battery powered.

He uses it to clean his 5th wheel. Cleaned the tracks on our mini excavator and the sxs.

I was actually impressed

Went to Sam's club and Lowes today.
While there I looked at gas engine models.
Craftsman seems like a decent deal with my vet discount of about 180 bucks for a 2100 psi, 1.2 gpm. It doesn't have a high gpm flow tho.
Sam's has a 3000 psi, 2.4 gpm for 299.

I have a Ryobi electric that puts out 2700 PSI. Paid less than $250 for it and so far through two seasons it has been great. It does great on all the concrete around the pool and the house brick. Very easy to haul out and do a little pressure washing.

It will definitely take the skin off your toe if you don’t watch it.
