Factory Reconditioned Karcher G 3025 BHR 3,000 PSI 2.5 GPM 187cc Honda GC190 Gas Powered Pressure Washer Review

Factory Reconditioned Karcher G 3025 BHR 3,000 PSI 2.5 GPM 187cc Honda GC190 Gas Powered Pressure WasherI 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.

I would definitely buy this washer again, but here is my wish list if I can change some things.First, it would be nice if there was a drain plug for the onboard soap dispenser.There's no good way to empty it now other than use it all up.Second, the hose needs to be another 5-10' longer to get around a full size vehicle without having to move the washer.I know a 25' hose is standard for all washers so this is not a criticism against Karcher.Finally, the pressure for the soap sprayer seems pretty weak and am concerned that I won't actually be able to use it on my two story house next year.

Having said that, I'm still happy with my purchase.The Honda motor starts with one pull all the time...hot or cold.The brass pump is top notch, and the quick connects are great.

McCulloch FHH25A 2500 PSI Gas Pressure Washer Review

McCulloch FHH25A 2500 PSI Gas Pressure WasherI purchased this because I liked the way it looked.

I've had 3 other pressure washers and thought the all enclosed unit would be easier to store so I "one clicked" bought it. The collapsible handle seemed like a nice feature too.

When I received it it looked great.
I read the manual, filled it with gas & oil and pulled the starter corda couple of times.

The handle was in the up position because I wheeled it out to the driveway.

As the gas percolated through the system on about the seventh pull the engine apparently misfired and locked the recoil rope so that I pulled the unit toward me with great force and the extended handle caught me right in the mouth.

Split lip and loose tooth.

Stay away from this puppy.I've had enough experience to know that this is a real piece of garbage.

All Power America APW5102 3,000 psi 6.5 HP OHV Gas-Powered Pressure Washer Review

All Power America APW5102 3,000 psi 6.5 HP OHV Gas-Powered Pressure WasherWasher 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.

Blue Max 3435 2,200 psi 2.4 HP OHV Gas-Powered Pressure Washer Review

Blue Max 3435 2,200 psi 2.4 HP OHV Gas-Powered Pressure WasherThe 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.

So, after getting one from my hardware box, I assembled the unit. Reading thru instruction I learned that I need SAE 30 oil. So next thing I did is I went and I bought 2 quarts of such oil. I filled the engine (uses about 1/3 of bottle or even less).

Filled in the gas. Hooked up the hose. Turned on the water (supplied connector started leaking, more on this later). Unit started on third try.

I test drove it and was pretty impressed with results.

Things you want to get before washer arrives:

1 Quart of SAE 30 (this is not modern engine oil!)
1 Quick Connect Male-Female Brass (I use plastic everwhere so I bought plastic but if you start from scratch, get brass)
1 Female-Female connector from Lowes or Homedepot. Anderson Barrows
PBGH2 3/4" FE Hose/FE Hose Swivel (Lowes had it) worked perfectly for me. This is because power washer has male connector (not female like all sprinklers, heads, etc that connect directly to hose) and all quick connects come with male as well. You can't connect male with male :)

Activities before you run your unit:

Fuel: Put fuel in.
Oil: Pour until indicator is at proper level.
Gender converter: Screw on the swivel connector onto power washer. This will make a female connector available on the the power washer. The one I listed above requires to use quite some force, but once it is on, it is on!
Quick Connector: Screw in the male part onto power washer, female onto hose, you are ready to go!Notes:
Chemical application requires you to put "low pressure" tip. The detergent won't be sucked in with any other tip.

Level the unit perfectly. It will cut the fuel once it is even so slightly tipped. If your unit shuts down after 15-30s, it is not leveled!

Use a little bleach with your detergent when cleaning white siding, you'll be amazed how much quicker it goes.Enjoy!
