I have a greenworks 1500 psi electric power washer. Works as good as my 2700 psi honda power washer.. has any one tried an electric one??

I honestly thought about getting one if these but I was lucky enough to win a Karcher 5.85M on eBay for about the same price. You will be happy with it as long as your just a weekend warrior like myself.

I got the 17 or 1800 greenworks . works just fine . no issues . I don't get to use it much though .
 
I've got a 1700psi one from Sams Club that does everything I need! In fact I cleaned the car and all the kids outside toys along with the patio chairs and pads today with it.

Are you talking about the Simpson 1700psi / 1.3GPM?

All it says is greenworks. 1500 psi. I like it but does urs 1800 get hot? Mine does after about 10-15 mins.

I recently purchased a greenworks 1700psi electric from lowes. Had it for two weeks now and I like it, also works good with my newly acquired foam cannon as well. I'm a weekend warrior so it suits me just fine but if you run a shop I'd say just get a good gas powered unit and have the electric as backup.

I have a similar model to the one in the pic, only mine is a horizontal style. Works fine for me.
 
It's actually "power washer" brand I've had it for a few years now and never had an issue with it
 
I prefer electric because the gas washer are just to loud. Put an extended warranty on it if you feel the need. I've cut back on power washing using more waterless washes. Still necessary just cut back when I can.
 
I use it about twice a week. Just think its puttin power out but not enuff. Fells like more hand washin involved. Thanks for the comments.

I love my karcher x series k5 .740 200psi Baby. I got and additional 20 foot hose because the 20 feet that it comes with wasn't cutting it.
 
Dear Wes

Will the 740's hose reel handle the extra 20 feet of hose?

I have the Cleanforce 1800HD from Home Depot. Its hose is about five feet too short for me to comfortably wash our Odyssey.
 
I have the greenworks 1700 from Lowes which I got during a holiday promo for $99 last year! I like it more then the 1500 because it wont tip over, a little more power and a few accessories. I also bought a foam cannon from AG and then the quick connects for the cannon from Lowes for about $7. I don't think 200 psi for a car makes too much difference. I love mine and use it about every two weeks on my car, house, grill and tractor. The only thing I don't like is that you cant do a high pressure soap with the normal tips which annoys me. Probably one of the reasons I bought the foam cannon. If anyone has any solutions for this, I would love to know. I bought the second story tips also with no luck on a high pressure soap
