Karcher K 2.28 1,550 PSI 1.3 GPM Electric Pressure Washer With 20-Foot Hose

 (58 customer reviews)

I picked this up at a little over $90. I used it for a 3-day heavy cleaning around my home. I'm very satisfied with it. First, if you've never used an electric pressure washer, the motor does NOT run continuously like gasoline washers. You hook it up, turn the switch to the "on" position, and it's ready to go. All you do is pull the trigger when you want water. About a half-second after you pull the trigger, the motor kicks in and you get your pressurized water. Release the trigger, and the motor stops, and the water stops. Simple.

Everything attached very easily. The pressure (1550 psi) was enough to get the dirt off my gutters/soffit/siding and clean my pavement without cleaner or detergent. It's also strong enough with the adjustable wand on max setting to clean decking, but yet gentle enough to not damage the wood. I did notice a little fraying when using the cleaning wand, but not much. One note: while this unit DOES have a siphon tube for using detergents...Read more

I was skeptical that it would clean a 17 year old deck, but it did. Awesome power! The only problem is there is not a trigger lock to keep the flow going. Made my fingers sore after a bit, holding the trigger so hard. Lots of pressure.

I've never owned or operated a pressure washer before and wish I hadn't waited so long. I didn't want to spend a lot, but am very satisfied with my purchase. I've only used it for a few days, but put it to a lot of work cleaning a huge patio, walkway, deck, garbage cans, railings, outdoor furniture, part of the house, screens and more. No detergent was necessary, so I did not use any. I saw some negative reviews elsewhere, but maybe they improved the product lately or I just got lucky. I did purchase a year warranty from wallyworld when I got this, but I probably won't need it.
