Harbor Freight pressure washer, any good?

[NikonGuy]

Anyone use the Harbor Freight pressure washer. Is it any good and what adapter does it use to adapt a foam cannon?

Thanks

check out the ryobi pressure washer from HD (blackmax from sams club which is the same thing), or the greenworks from lowes. they start from $99 - $199...

Will any of these be easily adaptable with Autogeek foam cannons

i have the 2nd greenworks pressure washer shown (1700psi) and all you need is the adaptor like the bottom picture shown below. it should also work with any other pressure washer with a quick disconnect like all the pressure washers shown on the end of the wand...

Just get the warranty if I were to use it everyday I would say no,I've been down that road not with the ryobi but with the greenworks.

I have the ryobi 1700 in the picture. I have used it 2 years zero issues no adapters required for a foam cannon. It uses standard quick disconnect fittings

Haven't used the one from HF Ryobi now has a super small one that I wish I had instead its 1600psi and super small

Still thinking of just getting the Harbor Freight one as it's cheap

The HF will need additional fittings for most tips and it has a shorter hose. It's only about $20 that the small ryobi. I looked at the HF for a long time before going with ryobi


For the record I love HF and I have a ton of tools from there. Not biased against them.

So this cannon does not replace the wand like in this AutoGeek piece

But rather fits at the tip of the wand. Am I correct?

Think I'm going to get this one at Lowes:
Shop Greenworks 1,600-PSI 1.2-GPM Cold Water Electric Pressure Washer at Lowes.com

Not bad for $99

The foam cannons attach at the end of the gun. Most of them do this via the quick disconnect

Good to know. Thanks

Just purchased the Greenworks one from Lowes and it comes with its own detergent gun. Probably not as good as aftermarket ones though
