Great pressure washer!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Powerwasher PWS1800-U 1,800 psi 1.6 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this for my husband early April 2008, after reading reviews online. And we are VERY HAPPY with it. He pressure washed all our fences before we stained them, then washed a patio, a driveway, our pool filters numerous times, the siding on our house, etc. and he loves it. The pressure is very good, he's happy with the level of pressure he gets on the adjustable nozzle (some cheap models lose decent pressure if you choose a wider spray), and he liked that he could roll up the hose on the back of the unit when he was done, and I was extremely happy with the price.

Not happy with mine.,

This review is from: Powerwasher PWS1800-U 1,800 psi 1.6 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)
I really wanted to like this pressure washer, and I did - for the first five minutes. It was all downhill from there.
I wanted an electric pressure washer for its ease of storage and this unit had all good reviews at the time. The price was right. Somebody has to make a good electric pressure washer, right? After all, my last one worked for ten years before it quit. The PWS1800-U assembles easily, is relatively lightweight and is attractive looking. The first five minutes of use were a joy. The motor was much quieter than expected and the wand felt light and easy to hold. The cleaning pressure was very good. I had a smile on my face. Unexpectedly the seal on the variable pressure wand burst with a popping noise and water sprayed sideways in all directions. Crap. It lost usable pressure. I tried to reseat the nozzle and troubleshoot but still couldn't fix the problem. I thought I would call the manufacturer's tech support and maybe find a quick solution. But the only way I could contact them was through a "live chat" feature on their web site - which was closed during scheduled operating hours. Not a good sign. I left my email address (but am still waiting for a response). I replaced the defective wand with the included turbo wand and that solved the immediate problem and got me back to work. It was doing a nice job of cleaning until... The auto stop feature shuts off the motor when there is no water flowing through the unit to cool it. The auto stop feature started to act up, requiring additional "press and release" cycles to turn off the motor. Eventually the motor would not shut off at all but would instead wind up to a continuous high rpm in the idle state. I shut it down for fear that the motor would burn up. Did I mention that this unit is made in China? Total time of use: one half hour. If this thing had worked properly I would have rated it four or five stars. But having two major malfunctions in the first half hour and considering the time wasted in purchasing, returning, refunding the money and then starting over again - it earns it a big fat one star rating from me. If you get a unit that works as advertised, this would be a good deal. If you don't, you hope for a generous return policy. On the bright side, I returned it to Amazon without a problem and they refunded the full price I paid including shipping (which is significant on a product this heavy). UPS even picked it up at my location. Thank you, Amazon for the easy return. Since then I've purchased a more powerful and more expensive gas unit. I'm still not sure where I will store it but it has been very reliable so far...

A Great Machine,
By
This review is from: Powerwasher PWS1800-U 1,800 psi 1.6 gpm Electric Pressure Washer (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this machine after having decided not to buy a larger gasoline engine based washer. This machine has done everything I expected and then some. I have cleaned siding, sidewalks, mold off of my roof, and stripped paint from my outside porch. This machine is realtively quiet and easy to use. The documentation isn't the best, but there isn't much to running this. After a couple of months I can say this has been a very good purchase.FAIP Powerwasher Electric Pressure Washer #PWS1800-U
