Pro.

- the price! its fairly cheaper than any other pressure washer at 1750 psi plus the free shipping!

- Very powerful, powerful enough to probably take the paint off my car! I spray at a close distance.

- The pressure only run when you pull the trigger beside that its very quiet compare to gas pressure washer.

- Spray gun can adjust from a wide angle spray to a point spray

- The pressure washer is light weight and have 2 wheels on them easy to pickup or pull around. (22lbs) my wife think its heavy ehehee

Con.

-The spray gun is made of cheap plastic and can easily crack or broken if drop.

- The transformer plug doesn't have any rubber protection it feel weak probably will crack open if you drop them.

- having the power cord, the garden hose and the spray gun hose thing could tangle up together, the power cord is not detachable and once you connect the pressure hose to the spray gun you don't want to disconnect them because it can create leak the next time you try to connect them again.

- 20' pressure hose for the spray gun is not enough, the machine doesn't have hose reel and the hose are stiff and hard to wind up when you finish using it.

(having a hard time wind up the pressure hose and disconnect the garden hose wind up the power cord making this pressure washer less useful.

tips:

for those who try to assembly this when you get it, you have to put TEFLON Tape anywhere you connect metal hose together if you don't do this it will leak and spray all over the place. just search in amazon for "TEFLON Tape" wrap the male hose with this tape a couple of round and connect them. it will prevent leak at the connection.

all in all i like this pressure washer and would recommend it, nothing is perfect the pressure have many flaws but this pressure washer work well and continue to work when i needed it.

This item did not have any reviews, I purchased it based on the great reviews for the smaller unit.It has plenty power to clean my driveway and was easy to use. The shipping charges were reasonable. It shipped the day i ordered it and arrived two days later. I recommend the Campbell Hausfield 1750 PSI pressure Washer.

I purchased this in summer 2008 and immediately the soap lance leaked soap everywhere. FYI: Campbell Hausfeld's customer service via their website isn't very good - very slow to respond. But, the soap lance wasn't that important to me, and the unit worked well for delivering pressurized water. I eventually did receive a replacement soap lance assembly.

Now the unit's gun assembly is leaking. In fact, more water comes out of the leak than the nozzle. I've been trying over a month to get a replacement part! Campbell Hausfeld is soooo slow to respond. They promise 2 day response time when you submit the question, but that's not the case. I've tried calling them and have tried multiple on-line service request, but all to no avail. Unfortunately, until I get a gun assembly, the unit is worthless. This is particularly frustrating as I would like to use it for spring cleaning.

Bottom Line: It appears that Campbell Hausfeld does not stand behind their product.

Buy it and you just made aa mistake! Cheap peice of garbage. Low pressure, poor quality, handle comes off too easily, and leaks like crazy. Too much hassle to use it.

Dont buy this product. Period!!!!!

Arrived with nothing broken or missing. No leaks when assembled - worked fine. The instructions for assembly are a little sketchy, however.

Do not follow T Tran VNF's advice on the teflon tape. The high pressure connections use o-rings. Lightly grease on assembly and if there is a leak check the o-ring. The low pressure connection uses garden hose rubber washers - the supplied washers are the same color as the connector (black) and hard to spot. A leak here means the washer fell out. Grab a new one at the hardware store.

I agree with the other reviewers that the plastic parts need to be handled with care. The provisions for spooling up the power cord and hose are bare bones too.

All in all a good buy for $150.

I bought one of these new, it failed within a month. it was replaced by the retailer, and has been a headache ever since. do not buy this piece of junk!

This power washer was ordered on Monday 5/25 and arrived (with free shipping!) on Wednesday 5/27. Goes together easily and is very straightforward. I have never owned or operated a power washer but I kept finding new reasons to buy one. I hooked it up to the hose and electric and hit the sidewalk on the side of my house. It took the 20 years of discoloration right up. I had an inground pool put in last year and for some reason the birds poop on the cement decking in the spring. Last year I scrubbed it off manually. This year I'll blast it off. I could easily see it working well on stained siding, sidewalks, driveways, brick, wood, etc. The white plastic skimmer covers on my pool were stained and worn-looking. One blast and they look new. Very powerful stream for an electric power washer. No leaking or other problems. Highly recommended!

The pressure washer works adequately but leaks excessively at the hose attachment as noted by prior reviews. Six weeks after purchasing, the hose has sprung two major leaks. Not worth warranty work if you can get through to the center - call wait time is outrageous. A bad product and waste of resources to create it.

It arrived and the handle was broken. Called the manufacturer and they are sending a new one with very little hassle - just back ordered. Used it to clean algea out of my pond and off my stepping stones. Works great and uses very little water!

We purchased this Campbell Hausfeld pressure washer in March 2008. Now, in November 2011, its DOA. Won't start. Into the garbage. Won't buy a product by Campbell Hausfeld again, for sure.
