What is PSI? What is GPM? What do they tell me about a pressure washer?
When choosing the best pressure washer for your needs, there are two general cleaning terms that you need to understand...
- PSI is the water pressure measured at output, measured in pounds per square inch...
... PSI is what gives you the power to penetrate the dirt and grime
- GPM is the water flow delivered to the spray gun, measure in gallons per minute...
... GPM is what gives you the power to break down dirt and wash it away

Customer Reviews
Anyway, when I decided to replace it I knew I needed more power (who doesn't?), so I looked seriously at 3,000 psi units. Here's what I liked about the Briggs Power Boss:
1) Honda engine. Kind of strange that Briggs would put a Honda engine on one of their products, but I think Honda makes some of the best small gasoline powered engines. It starts right up and runs great.
2) The sealed pump that requires no maintenance. Considering how much homeowners actually use their pressure washers, I doubt that many (or any) were changing the pump oil as recommended. This eliminates that hassle.
3) The large gas tank lets you run the unit until you're probably thankful that it finally ran out of gas.
4) Pneumatic wheels make the unit easy to move around.
5) Quick-connect sprayer tips.
6) On-board detergent tank. My old p/w just had a suction tube, so if you wanted to move the unit you had to be careful not to knock over the detergent bottle and spill it.
In a perfect world, the pump would be made of solid brass, but that would entail a major cost increase. I would also prefer a longer (maybe 50') hose, but maybe that's the laws of physics kicking in -- it may not be practical on a 3,000 psi unit.
Overall operation is simple, and the unit does pretty much everything I could reasonably expect it to. Anything more and I should get myself a true commercial model, but that's a big jump in price.
I can highly recommend this unit.
This pressure washer is OK. It does the job in the category it was intended, homeowners.
The second instruction in assembly is incorrect, the first being removal from the box. They instruct you to put the tree clips in the top hole. WRONG. The top holes are for the carriage bolts which tie the handle to the mainframe. Getting the tree clips out of the holes is a major pain, but needs to be done. There are only two holes, one on either side that tie the handle to the mainframe. I now had two less tree clips (no extras) to use on the bottom holes of the detergent reservoir.
The wheels are secured to a dowel axial. Cheap axial, cheal wheels. They wobble.
The accessory tray? That's what they call it, is all but useless. The hook for the high pressure hose does not keep it secure. The hose is stiff. It does not want to stay on the hook.
The unit is not layed out well. Briggs Development Engineers really need to "use" what they design to get it.
I now throw the gun and hose on a hook in my garage. The various angled tips are stowed on the gun and have fallen off. They should be securely positioned on the accessory tray. I can walk back 25 ft if I require a different tip.
The Honda fired right up. Not the case with my other Briggs power tools.
It took me one hour to clean my 15' x 20" cement patio. I also cleaned a pressure treated adirondack chair. This pressure washer removed all the mildew and mold.
I have another 15' x 20' cement patio to do as well as a 100' long cement driveway. It will take awhile to get it done, but I understand the limitations of a 3000 psi units.... Read more ›
The pressure washer itself is not up to my expectations. The wand is shorter than I would like, the 4 nozzles are stored in a plastic holder on the bottom side of the wand, and I'm afraid that if I hit them on something, they will fall out, so I don't store them there. The hose is ok; it is smaller diameter that I would like, and only 25' long. The wheels are plastic and flimsy; there is not a solid axel between the wheels. The fuel tank is plastic, which is fine, but it is thin and the connections to the engine don't appear to be very rugged. The soap dispenser tank is conveniently mounted above the high pressure pump, which is good, but I have not used that feature yet. The frame is adequate, but not what I would call heavy duty.
My bottom line is that I will keep the pressure washer, as it is fine for normal household jobs, but if you intend to use this for industrial purposes, I would not recommend.
