Not really a fan of him either. I've never heard of a company talk the way he does about "customer service" LOL.
 
Yep…I was conflicted about doing Buisness with a company that has such
“Attitude “ been in Buisness over 40
Years in the same zip code and my clients are the # 1 reason I’m still here I treat them respectfully and they always feel special after a visit to my shop…anybody can do what I do…however most service people I know don’t have a clue on taking care of a client…enough from me…the stuff the cat has at OG is worth the attitude
And he knows it too…that’s why it is the way it is…put up with it or not
Regardless I love my PW set up and all the accessories that make it soooo nice to use
 
I've followed him since way before he had a store. I enjoy his content and his honesty

Same here. Another aspect I enjoy is how his content didn't change when his channel and shop grew, he's still just as dedicated to testing, modifying and approving of machines and tools that the average weekend consumer can afford as he was in the beginning, as well as still showing off the $10,000 machines only large shops would, and could, buy.

He's not a salesman and not a Made for Youtube personality and I think that's what turns off most people, but it's what lends credit to his honesty.

I've watched before the store as well. I started when he traded in the F80 for the GT350. He's totally a salesman lol. There's nothing wrong with that, IMO. He's not the type of salesman that sells you anything. He's the type that isn't about selling you anything, whatever it takes. It's interesting to hear the details businesses will normally never talk about publicly. I may not buy everything he's "selling", but I do enjoy the videos. I like many of the employees he has as well. I like how he wants to honor the source in regard to products or ideas, etc. I get ideas from his content as well. I just wish he'd shutup about masks, stop hating on old people (everybody gets old if your lucky!), and just stop complaining about the people who request standard customer service.
 
As a person I,can’t stand the obsessed,guy. He comes across as condescending and arrogant. Claims he isn’t a retailer and yet he sell stuff, lol.

Personally I,think he’s using the mental health thing as a marketing tool.

I really also,do not like financial,sales guys (apparantly he,was,a,financial guy) as they provide no value.

But after bashing the guy, lol, I,did buy a kranzle from him. At the time I,couldn’t find them,any where else.

All of his other stuff is over priced (once you factor,in shipping) so I,just buy from ag or others.
 
Not sure how anyone could say he doesn't provide value. Tons of awesome free content

there is no,value provided as a financial advisor. Just a layer of money skimming.

alao,not a real value because you pay for,shipping, and no.sales. Can get supplies elsewhere.

“Awesome” content? I’d,disagree. Lots of “hey I’m ocd and this is what I like to use on my cars”. I,wouldn’t say awesome.

that being said, there was some value to,his pressure washer series, And that led to,a,sale for me.

but I,wouldn’t say awesome.
 
He does do 1 sale per year
We can just disagree. I've watched days of his videos. I've had anxiety issues that he has talked about so for me it has been awesome

I got my AR630TSS from him and cox reel, 100 ft hose etc

add shipping to his detail stuff and again ZERO VALUE.

Its between Kranzle and AR and I am still trying to get the duty cycle on the AR motor/pump-the nice lady at the Kranzel Distributor was able to get me the info in just a few minutes-continuous duty on 2 hp and up, intermittent on all others, didn't want to try and get the specific on/off requirements, she mentioned that I was the only person ever to ask about this.

AR is proving to be very very difficult to get the info on but I will most probably go with this if and only if the motor/pump are Italian, otherwise its Kranzle.

If anyone can tell me about Comet it would be appreciated-noise, pump and motor type/brand and where made..

What is amazing to me is that no where is there a chart that lists various tasks and the cu required to get the job done, or at least I have yet to find this.

As for OG, its an informative site though I don't understand why someone as thorough as he doesn't list the duty cycles.

I don’t know what the duty cycle even means

From fluke.com:

Duty cycle is the ratio of time a load or circuit is ON compared to the time the load or circuit is OFF.

Duty cycle, sometimes called "duty factor," is expressed as a percentage of ON time. A 60% duty cycle is a signal that is ON 60% of the time and OFF the other 40%.
 
All those shopping for a washer should keep the above in mind and also be aware that the off time is a requirement by the manufacturer of the motors/pumps.
 
In the context of using a pressure washer for detailing, I don’t see duty cycle as something that matters. In my use, my pressure washer pump isn’t in use for more than 3-5 minutes at most and that’s for the initial rinse or foam gun use before turning off.

If you were planning on using the pressure washer for driveways, decks, exterior house use, etc. then I could see duty cycle being important. But an electric pressure washer wouldn’t be something I would use for those purposes anyway.
 
I agree that a consumer using a washer for detailing has different needs than a business but if one is only going to use the washer for detailing family cars then -I- would question the need of a machine to begin with, again this is me. Going with a garden hose foam gun would get the job done and save water compared to using the bucket method. The added benefit is that significant dollars would be available for beer and pizza or a fairly significant investment in the brass market. Depending of course on which machine is under consideration.

The 'better' the cycle the more robust the components, the more robust the components the longer the service life , if I am going to drop the better part of 2 large I need to know the specs.

I do however 'overspend' on tools, purchasing only US and European products, usually German-70% of my hand tools, all the vacs and test equipment are from the EU/Germany. I own one Chinese made power tool the G9.
