Kärcher has the most aftermarket support in terms of accessories... Here is one I absolutely love.

good deal,
I never purchased one yet,
My bro did get the sunjoe and likes it so far
I may end up picking up the Yard force 2200

I have been using the Greenworks 2000 for about a month now. Depends on what you are going to use it for? I mainly use mine for wheel well cleaning and getting bugs off the front fender. I was disappointed on the soap dispenser part because I did not get my car soap nice and foamy. Maybe it was due to my soap to water ratio? My first run was about 75% water to 25% Griots Garage Brilliant Finish Car Soap. I started out at that ratio to make sure the soap would siphon through. I guess better safe than sorry. Overall, I am satisfied with it. I bought electric or gas power due to the fact of quietness. I detail out of my home garage, and did not think my neighbors did not want to hear a gas pressure washer motor going at 7 am in the morning.
I have the k5 regular with the hose reel. The thermoplastic hose kinda sucks and you can't buy a replacement because of the fittings they use. I just bought a flex hose for it. Im going to have to cut it in 2 spots and clamp it toghether and hope it doesn't leak
I purchased this one from Walmart, did great job on my driveway and the trim of my house. And of course using it to wash the car, still new at it and trying to determine if the cannon works better than the built in tank. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sun-Joe-...66001f5-729c8254-7a705e535e2d2607&athena=true

Mike--you might want to take a look at this thread ---- Got Rid of my Overpriced Karcher PW and bought a Cheap Ryobi & Upgraded it... way better setup!!
They have extension hoses in 6 meter and 10 meter about 20 and 33 foot. It's kärcher original rubber hose. You get the last end of the hose more flexible at least. I got the k7 premium plus flex pressure wash and the flex is a more flexible hose than useally. I'm looking for a swiwel which I have the most problem with. But find one to fit the hose and the original spray gun seems impossible. I think there is so you can fit a other hose that connects to the hose reel outlet and you can use a spray gun of choice. Don't know if you have the display in your spray gun as I have. I kind of like that you can adjust the pressure from the spray gun and the chemical dilution too.

picked up a 3001 for 154.97 this week. everyday price.
Just a note - don't expect any of them to be a sustained PSI and gpm as stated. Those are peak numbers, measured PSI with the most narrow tip for one thing. Not sure about gpm but I'd be surprised if my 3001 puts out 1.5gpm at the highest. Just fyi.

The AR390SS has been running great for over a year now. I think it is a crapshoot though on how long any of these electric PWs last. If you look at the reviews of any PW model you will find users that had them stop working very quickly. Buy one on sale and get a warranty so you can send it back when, not if, it quits on you. Remember none come with a lifetime guarantee.
I actually pressure tested my SPX3000 (SPX3001 has same specs) the other day with an assortment of different orifice sized nozzles. Granted i upgraded to a full stainless MTM spray gun with lance and custom 50' 1/4' hose with reel. Below are the results.
Using the Sun Joe tips:
green (25 degree) = 1200psi
grey (40 degree) = 1200psi
All nozzles below were from either MTM Hydro and AllPressureWashers.com (Hydro Jet brand).
2.0 orifice... *will be using moving forward*
25 degree tip = 1300 psi
40 degree tip = 1400 psi
2.5 orifice:
25 degree = 1000 psi
40 degree = 1100 psi
3.0 orifice:
25 degree = 900 psi
40 degree = 850 psi
4.0 orifice:
40 degree = 600 psi
I hope this helps anyone on deciding on a PW and or if you already own a Sun Joe.
