I bought this for my husband and he just loves it. Shipping was very fast for this item and he has gotten a lot of use out of it.
Excellent product. Exactly as described. I need this type of tire for my job and the price is right.
what more can be said. it fit as described in my old echo blower. the thing runs great after a tune up, fresh fuel, etc. don't forget the gapping tool.
If you are looking for an arc welder, this item should get your attention. I work at a golf course with a very limited budget. Since my welder arrived, I have been able to perform several repairs to get equipment back in service. This unit is excellent for the novice or intermediate user. Free shipping, no less!
I like to do a lot of research before I purchase items like this, and I found that Karcher is one of the best brands for pressure washers out there.Spotted this unit on clearance at one of the local wholesale clubs and quickly bought it.I've since cleaned my tractor, cars, patio and concrete porch with it.Haven't had a chance to clean the house yet, but will give that a shot next spring.When I used it on my porch and patio, this washer worked great with no detergent necessary.Tried it on my tractor and it worked great there as well.When it came to the cars, I'd give it "B".You definitely need a brush attachment or you're just spraying water and soap, but even with the brush, you're not going get your rims super clean or all of those bug stains off.
These are good quality and they work. 'Nuf said!
If you buy this, be prepared for a few things:
NICE AND EASY TO WORK, & DOES DECENT JOB!
Purchased elsewhere for $150.00,i used it to wash siding on home,car port concrete surface and a small boat. Total of approximately 10 Hrs.before the pump seized up and shut down the unit.STANLEY OWNERS MANUEL puts you in touch with GXI , the company that supplies the electric motor,pump, etc..for this piece of junk.They wanted me to send them the entire unit back to them and my credit card number and they would decide how to handle the problem which could cost as much as a new unit and all i wanted was for them to send me a new pump assembly.I have searched the Internet over and over and CAN NOT find a replacement.I WOULD LIKE STANLEY TO PROVIDE THE CUSTOMER WITH A PRODUCT THAT THEY COULD PURCHASE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR.MAYBE A PRODUCT CUSTOMER SATISFICATION PERSON FROM STANLEY COULD HELP OUT HERE.I purchase a lot from Amazon because of their return policy and good pricing and they should know about this JUNK.I have seen documentation from people with the same problem.
this is a small and light weight washer,starts easy and works strong,only the hose is kind of short for going all around the car,the spray gun is not strong enough mine is broken in half in the middle ,inner pipe is broken in less than 2 mounths,
If you have never used a Karcher before, any model will surprise you with how well it cleans, a purcharse you will not regret. I have used electric ones for years. The electric machines are superb, but this gas model having 2400 PSI can remove more stubborn material, runs without electricity, and can run continuously without the wear and tear that small models suffer. It has a Honda engine, a Karcher pump, and some domestic assembly onto a wheeled trolley. The trolley has stupidities... it is impossible to put in the motor oil without a funnel and tube, and draining the oil is worse because there is no hole in the base plate so you have to hold the whole at an angle. One of the accessories regularly falls off the accessory holder. I recommend this model only if the electric versions are too light duty or you are too far from electricity. So far it has proven very capable a cleaner and so far has been reliable.
My other dirtblaster had lasted about 11 years. The nozzle would stick occasionally. The new one works, well, just like new and gives my Karcher power washer the extra boost it needs to get the nasties off my Vette and Harley before I wash it or even when I don't have time for a complete was.
This nozzle really shouldn't be called a dirtblaster."Wonder Tool" would be more like it!It will clean a 3" wide surface by a foot long in about six seconds.It has another nozzle inside that rotates while operating and greatly increases the speed and efficiency of operation.Works equally well on concrete and vinyl siding.I was able to clean our house and driveway in a day and had fun doing it.What a tool!
I had read a review that stated they were using the fine screws for everything. I found that when using soft pine, and more importantly into plywood, the fine screws were on the edge of getting the job done. All you had to do was remove one of the screws and reinsert it, to see what I mean. In my opinion getting the coarse screws, and the fine screws is essential.
This is a very handy addition to my pressure washer.I can finally get to those difficult places that need washing. (I bought the longer of the two units available-- and very glad I did.)
It does the job properly. Home use.
After the second usage, the internal plastic nozzle cracked, thus it does not operate as it should. This part should be made out of bronze to avoid breaking due to high exposed pressure. No replacement part is ofrered for this item so you have to buy a new wand if you want to continue using your pressure washer.
I purchased this because I liked the way it looked.
I' well pleased with the purchase of this pressure washer pump. May God bless you and yours
I recently purchased this wand- I use it with a Gas-powered Honda pressure washer to clean boats.The pivoting nozzle makes a huge difference in how much time and effort it takes to do the work, and the pivoting handle is a breeze to use- no training time needed!This is a professional grade piece of equipment.Seems like they should come out with one for the electric washer I have at home- I could use this in my garage.
I've had a consumer grade Karcher electric pressure washer for a number of years, and the one listed here is no different.It has served me faithfully for many years until yesterday, when I stepped on the input garden hose just in front of its input hose bib - crack!! (*&#$*&(*&#$
Great product! Works very well. Only negative is the washer for the hose connection.Does not stay in the fitting so be careful that you don't lose it when you disconnect the hose.
I bought this wand for the sole purpose of using it to clean out my gutters.While the concept seems good, it didn't really work out like I had planned, probably because I'm pretty new to the whole gutter-cleaning thing.
If you have or are getting ready to buy a pressure cleaner, add this Washbroom accessory and you won't be sorry.It cleans with three nozzles instead of one so it covers a path of probably 16". The pool deck used to take about 3 hours with my pressure cleaner. Now with this nifty gadget, we're talking 30 minutes tops.Better yet, no more streaks. It also has a squeegee built into it so I can wash out my garage and remove the water in one pass.
I have to admit that maybe I was expecting too much from these brushes.I thought that with the power generated by the pressure washer the brushes would spin MUCH faster.But it appears that the nozzle controlling the water flow and the gearing is set to keep the spin rate down.This may be fine for use on something with a fine finish like a car, but I was hoping to use it to clean the patio furniture, siding, etc. and I think that it could benefit from higher RPM's for these tasks.
I started with an electric 1800 PSI model after advise from a friend of mine. However I felt it had not enough power to do the job so I returned it and bought the Karcher G2600VH at Sam's club[...]. It came already assembled. At home I filled in the oil and gas, connected the hoses, inserted the nozzle, turned the water on and fired the engine up. It ran after the second kick. I gave it a try washing my 2 year old driveway. With the electric model I used the included dirt nozzle for one area. With the gas model I used the 25 degree nozzle. It cleaned much easier and quicker. The wand is higher quality as well. I did not try the SoapPacs yet. Will use those Saturday when washing my cars, patio furniture and lanai. So far very good impression and I can recommend this product.
i picked this up to go with the pws1300 i got for my mom on mothers day, i figured for $15 she gets to open another gift, it made sense. The stars must have been aligned, cause not only did she love the machine, she will not stop raving about the brush too! apparently it is the "best" for cleaning her patio furniture. easy as 1-2-3, 'it's a beautiful ting!'
The product is plastic and did not fit the Karcher pressure washer as advertised. The hose is rated for less psi than the washer.I need to go somewhere else to find the replacement that will fit and function.
The AR 240 is a well built, reliable home pressure washer.To be sure it can't be compared to a 3000 psi gas powered washer, but for an electric unit it gets the job done.I have cleaned grime and mold off of wrought iron work, crud off of patio tile and so on.I am pleased with the results.
I bought this item because the description said "Turn your hose into a pressure washer!"While I didn't quite expect that, I did expect more than what it is.As a nozzle it seems to be of good enough quality, but a $10 nozzle from a local home improvement store provides just as much pressure.
My neighbor got a power washer and has been using it sprucing up his front yard.I decided that I needed one, too.This item was also listed on eBay, apparently by the same company.the price was reasonable in both locales, but eBay charged twice as much ($62)to deliver, compared to the Amazon offer.Go figure.It arrived promptly, carefully packed.Take care to review the instructions.The vendors really need to include a video.I got it connected and took it for a shakedown cruise.After about 20 minutes of use, I was very impressed.The force of the water was great for clearing away surface dirt, cobwebs, etc., from the side of the house.It responded promptly to the controls.
Yes one of the wheels feel off...big deal.I followed all of the instructions and it worked perfectly.It was well package and I didn't see any damage.
Washer is well made and easy to assemble. Started easily the first time. Worked well for about 2 hours then pressure started to fluctuate and it cut out. I thought it might have over heated. So I stopped for the day and returned the next day, checking both oil and gas before starting. The pressure seemed low and after about 30 minutes the pressure was nil. The trouble shooting guide suggests a number of fixes including cleaning the by pass valve. I don't feel I should have do get into maintenance issues on a product that is brand new with less than 3 hours of use on it. My final judgment on this washer is pending but as of this writing I am not satisfied with the reliability of this product.
we recieved this power washer and I went right to work. I cleaned up all the yard furniture, the deck,and 2 sections of fence in no time. I couldn't believe the power. My only advice would be to make sure you wear ear plugs while using it. The machine isn't loud but while cleaning it is. We are very pleased with this purchase.
Received this from Amazon yesterday and have spent the day doing a number of projects with it (driveway, vinyl siding, engine compartment of a car I am working on, etc...). Overall, I am very pleased. The pressure is pretty impressive for an electric unit and the nozzle allows for easy adjustment of the stream width.
I had a very nice gas powered, 2,600 psi pressure washer for a few years. It had a Honda engine, and was insanely powerful.The downside: It took up too much room in my garage, the tires kept getting low because I didn't use it much, and it was loud.You are also not supposed to let the engine run when youaren't washing (wears out the pump), so if you want to use it to rinse off sections of your car while washing, you are constantly turning it off, then pull starting again.You also have the issue of the gas getting old if you don't use it, fumes, and the the exhaust gets hot so you need to keep your kids away from it. The pressure is so strong you need to be really careful too, it can damage some material.Bottom line....for my occasional, around the house use, it was overkill. I sold it to free up room in my garage, and figured I could live without one.
Having just moved to Florida, and doing more outdoor living, we were compelled to try this mighty sprayer for all our outdoor clean-ups.It is fabulous and even my skeptical husband had to admit I made a good choice this time!
I purchased the FHH18A model (identical except for psi rating) two years ago and have used it professionally to clean the exteriors of about 30 large Victorian houses and a dozen long concrete driveways and walkways(about 150 hours of use total). Problems: 1.) I had the same problem as others with the cheap plastic double-female hose connector just recently. The hose would pop off when I turned on the water. I fixed the problem by converting it to a quick-connect system for $9 with standard hose parts from ACE Hardware. 2.) The water chamber inlet rubber gasket came out of its groove when attached to an unregulated outdoors water standpipe (c. 90 psi). Fixed by removing and re-installing it; a 30 minute job. 3.) Wear on the wand tip rendered the fan pattern unavailable after 2 years use. Bought a replacement wand/hose/tip through McCulloch website for $35.93 and had it in 3 days.
The unit arrived in so-so packaging. As with everyone else, I had a nut missing. This is in my opinion due to the fact that mine were thrown into the box loose, they should be bagged. I fished second nut out of the corner of box.
This is my second Briggs & Stratton power washer.The first one died an untimely death, but I blame myself for not draining all the water out before a winter freeze.
This product arrived quickly and in good condition.The set-up was strait forward and easy.The pressure washer worked GREAT for about 15 minutes, and then it lost pressure.Per the trouble-shooting section of the instruction manual, I checked all the connections to make sure none were sucking air, and then I tried again, but the unit still would not create any water pressure.I phoned the manufacturer and was given the same advice (check the connections), so I did that again without luck.Frustrated, I set it aside and tried again today.This time I wrapped thread seal (plumber's tape) on the threads of the connection between the wand and the pressure hose.I also replaced the gaskets in the inlet hose; however, the fourth time was not a charm - the unit's motor ran and the water flowed, but with no more pressure than a garden hose.It's heading back for a refund.
Had a decade of dirt, grime and green stuff accumulated on large concrete driveway and sidewalks.Using the normal nozzle tips of the pressure washer worked, but ultimately impractical due to the tedious time required.This surface cleaner worked like magic in a fraction of the time.It is light and easy to use without straining the arms.It leaves a smooth, uniformly clean finish.And it was even fun.Felt a bit like fixing pictures in Photoshop or using a Paint program, as the unit so smoothly changes the color as it sweeps along!
I did a lot of research on electric power washers and this brand seemed to have really good professional reviews.I chose this particular model because of the long power cord and the long high pressure hose.As extra bonuses you also get 1900 pounds of pressure and everything wraps up nice and neat on the unit.My only concern is the plastic connection for the hose.I wish they would have used brass or steel like what they have on the high pressure connection.I've tested the unit for about three hours.I washed a couple of windows; did a great job.I cleaned my tiled patio; got the dirt out of the grout.I cleaned my car; got most of the dirt, but even a 3000 psi unit can't get it all, it's just a basic fact you have to use some elbow grease to get road scum off.I also tried it on my fence to clean off dirt and moss build up; didn't do such a good job but then again it is a 1900psi unit and for wood you really need at least 2600psi.For that you need a gas unit and I really don't want to deal with the mess, the loud noise, and the maintenance.I'm really happy with this unit so far, I just hope it doesn't break after a couple of uses like I heard from reviewers of other brands.
This was our second power washer.Our first was much more powerful (1750 psi).It could take the paint off the deck.It actually was too powerful for the kinds of jobs we needed.We were very happy with the new Campbell Haufeld 1300 pressure washer.It had enough power to clean the deck and lawn furniture easily.It is light and compact and much easier to use and store.I would have given this product 5 stars - but the auto detail kit was really not worth much.The pressure washer itself was a great deal!
