Sun Joe Electric Pressure Power Washer, Heavy-Duty 2500 Max PSI (2030 PSI PWMA Rated), Cleaning Machine for Patios, Decks, & Sidewalks, Safety First GFCI Power Cord, w/Dual Soap Tanks, SPX3000

In a former life I used a pressure washer almost daily. The best pressure washers imho have a Honda GX series commercial grade engine, a CAT pump (which can be rebuilt) and 3000psi+ pressure. They clean well and hold up well over the long haul but are expensive, starting in the $700 to $800 range and out of my budget range. I didn't expect much when I ordered the Sun Joe SPX 3000 but I was pleasantly surprised especially considering the price (Deal of the Day) I paid. Ordered on a Sunday and it was sitting on the front porch Tuesday (thanks Amazon!). It's packed well and that's a good thing considering the box was found upside down- no damage thanks to the good packaging. Assembly is easy ... if you read the manual first, it's clear and concise. I'd use a regular or ratcheting screwdriver instead of a power tool (i.e.cordless drill or impact driver) on the self tapping screws used for assembly- there's far less risk of stripping the hole. Mine came with a metal supply fitting instead of the all plastic one others have mentioned - no leaks. The Good- it works well. The pro style gun tips make it versatile- even at just 2000 psi the 0 degree tip can do some real damage if you're not careful.. No, it doesn't have the power of a commercial grade pressure washer but so far it has done everything I and most homeowners would ask of it- clean siding, concrete walks, the nasty underside of a mower deck or your vehicle. It's quiet especially compared to gas engine powered pressure washers. There's no gas to buy or oil to change. Two year (residential use only) warranty, a better warranty than many. And real live U.S. based humans in customer service The Bad- it's a bit difficult to move with the 35' (iirc) power cord on the rear and the water supply hose on the front. And you WILL have to move it as there's only 20' of high pressure hose. I'm going to order Sun Joe's SPX-25H 25' extension hose later this month- 45 total feet of high pressure hose will save a lot of moving. I disconnect the supply hose before moving- the new supply coupling may be metal but it attaches to a plastic fitting on the machine. Dragging around 25' or more of garden hose can't be good for it. Suggestions- 1. Check your water supply before you buy any pressure washer. Take the hose you're going to use with the pressure washer and fill a 5 gal. bucket for exactly one minute. Check the quantity of water in the bucket- you should have at the very least what your pressure washer is rated for (1.76 GPM in the case of the Sun Joe) and preferably more.. Some older homes with galvanized steel water pipes have id's the size of a pencil due to years of sediment/corrosion and will not have enough water flow as will some homes on wells .... better to know before you buy. And if you have enough water flow, make sure you open your hose bib/wall hydrant/ spigot ALL the way, every time. Using a larger hose can help- I use a 3/4" commercial garden hose on mine instead of the usual 5/8". 2. Read the manual thoroughly before you start, especially if this is your first pressure washer.... you will probably save yourself some aggravation. 3. At first sign of freezing weather get your pressure washer to someplace where it won't freeze unless you want to wind up with an expensive plant stand on wheels. Conclusion- The Sun Joe SPX 3000 is a good machine at a great price and for most residential homeowners, it is as good as it gets. It's quiet, does the job, no gas to buy or oil to change. Update 9/13/20: It's still working and still no complaints. The extra length of hose has been helpful. Store it properly and you should get good life out of it.

I RENT A GAS PRESSURE WASHER EVERY YEAR FOR VARIOUS PROJECTS AROUND THE HOUSE, I HAVE USED GAS PRESSURE WASHERS TO REMOVE CHIPPING PAINT FROM THE CINDER BLOCK FOUNDATION IN PREPARATION TO REPAINT, BUT MOSTLY I USE IT YEARLY TO CLEAN MY CONCRETE WALKWAY, DRIVEWAY AND PATIO. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS. DUE TO A RECENT INJURY I AM UNABLE TO LIFT HEAVY ITEMS, SO THIS YEAR I DECIDED TO LOOK AT ELECTRIC PRESSURE WASHERS. I DID MY HOMEWORK, I WENT TO HOME DEPOT AND LOWE'S AND I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND WATCHED YOU TUBE VIDEOS AND READ ALL THE REVIEWS. THE SUN JOE SPX3000 ALWAYS STOOD OUT FROM THE REST IN ALL THE REVIEWS I READ. I ORDERED ONE FROM AMAZON.COM. IT WAS TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK, BUT HAD THE BEST PRICE I COULD FIND INCLUDING FREE SHIPPING. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER I HAD MY NEW PRESSURE WASHER. IT TOOK ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES TO READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND INSTALL EIGHT ITEMS: 1. THE HANDLE, (FOUR SCREWS) 2. THE TRIGGER GUN HOLDER, (JUST POPS ON) 3. THE SPRAY WAND PROTECTOR- (ONE SCREW AND A POP IN TAB)-THIS WAS A LITTLE TRICKY, THE TAB DID NOT WANT TO LOCK IN, BUT IT FINALLY DID) 4. THE DETERGENT BOTTLES- (THEY WERE ALREADY IN PLACE BUT NEEDED TO BE "SEATED) 5. THE HOSE HOLDER (SLIDES IN PLACE AND IS HELD ON WITH ONE SCREW) 6. CONNECT ONE END OF THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO TO THE REAR OF THE UNIT AND THE OTHER END TO THE TRIGGER GUN. (ONE END IS MADE FOR THE TRIGGER GUN AND THE OTHER END IS MADE TO CONNECT TO THE UNIT.) 7. ATTACH THE WAND TO THE TRIGGER GUN. 8. ATTACH THE PLASTIC WATER INLET COUPLER TO THE FRONT OF THE UNIT-(THIS IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT WHERE LEAKING OCCURS. MINE LEAKED TOO. I JUST REMOVED IT AND CAREFULLY RE INSTALLED IT MAKING SURE IT WAS NOT CROSS THREADED AND THERE WAS NO MORE LEAKING. IT DID START LEAKING AGAIN AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF USAGE. I HAD TO REMOVE THE COUPLER AGAIN, THIS TIME I REMOVED THE SMALL BLACK WASHER OR O-RING AND TURNED IT OVER. I MADE SURE IT WAS SEATED CORRECTLY, THEN RE INSTALLED THE COUPLER. IT HAS NOT LEAKED AGAIN. THE POWER PLUG ON THIS UNIT IS HUGE. IT HAS A BUILT IN GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER BUILT IN FOR SAFETY. THE PLUG IS SO LARGE IT WOULD NOT FIT INTO MY OUTDOOR OUTLETS SO I HAD TO USE A SHORT 5 FOOT EXTENSION CORD DESIGNED FOR PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONERS. THIS WORKED FINE. I TESTED THE GROUND FAULT AND IT TOO WORKED FINE. YOU MUST NOT USE A COMMON HOUSE HOLD EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS UNIT. YOU MUST USE THE PROPER GAUGE EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS UNIT IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BURN UP THE MOTOR. CONSULT THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. SO NOW I AM READY TO USE MY PRESSURE WASHER: 1. I DOUBLE CHECKED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS PUT TOGETHER SECURELY 2. I HOOKED UP MY GARDEN HOSE TO THE FRONT OF THE UNIT (MAKE SURE THE HOSE IS NOT KINKED). I TURNED ON THE WATER FAUCET ALL THE WAY. (THAT IS WHEN I SAW THE FIRST WATER LEAK AND HAD TO RE INSTALL THE COUPLER) . 3. I PLUGGED IN THE POWER CORD (USING MY SHORT A/C EXTENSION CORD) AND MADE SURE IT WOULD NOT GET WET BY HANGING IT UP ON A PLANT HOOK ON MY PATIO. 4. I SNAPPED IN ONE OF THE QUICK CONNECT NOZZLES. (I DID NOT KNOW WHICH ONE WOULD WORK BEST FOR MY APPLICATION) 5. I RELEASED THE SAFETY LOCK ON THE TRIGGER. 6.. I SQUEEZED THE TRIGGER WHICH ALLOWS WATER TO FLOW THROUGH THE SYSTEM. 7. I TURNED ON THE MACHINE. IT WORKS!! I PLAYED AROUND WITH THE DIFFERENT NOZZLES. I WANTED TO CLEAN MY CONCRETE WALK WAY. THE GREEN NOZZLE 25 DEGREES WORKED BEST. I WAS AMAZED AT THE POWER OF THIS LITTLE MACHINE. IT CLEANED MY CONCRETE AS GOOD AS A GAS PRESSURE WASHER. I USED THIS FOR ABOUT FIVE HOURS STRAIGHT. I WAS VERY PLEASED. THE UNIT IS QUIET COMPARED TO A GAS UNIT, BUT I STILL WORE EAR PLUGS TO PROTECT MY HEARING. WHEN YOU RELEASE THE TRIGGER, THE MACHINE SIMPLY CUTS OFF AND THERE IS NO NOISE. OCCASIONALLY THE UNIT WOULD PULSE WITH VERY LOW PRESSURE ON RESTARTING, BUT RELEASING THE TRIGGER AND PRESSING IT AGAIN IMMEDIATELY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. I DID NOT USE THE DETERGENT BOTTLES, SO NO COMMENT. AS FAR AS LONGEVITY, THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. I USUALLY USE A PRESSURE WASHER ONCE A YEAR SO I HOPE TO HAVE MINE FOR A QUITE SOME TIME. SUN JOE WARRANTS THE MACHINE FOR TWO YEARS. BOTTOM LINE. THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL ELECTRIC PRESSURE WASHER AND IS ALMOST AS GOOD AS A GAS UNIT. THIS MACHINE CAN CLEAN CONCRETE WITH EXCELLENT RESULTS, YOU CAN CLEAN VINYL SIDING, WOOD DECKS, PATIO FURNITURE, GAS GRILLS AND MORE. AND YES YOU COULD POSSIBLY DAMAGE SOMETHING IF YOU DO NOT USE CAUTION. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY SUN JOE SPX3000 AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT TO BE BOTHERED WITH A GAS POWERED PRESSURE MACHINE.

Overall a great pressure washer that works very well, just learn to know which attachment to use, as it has some serious power with the smaller ranged heads. It's lightweight and easy to use, and the hose is really long, plus the cord is as well. soap dispenser works very well, just switch to right head. Price is great ONE issue is that the hose attach location seems to be backwards, as you're backing into, as hose attaches to front instead of back. Not sure of what was the plan, but it's awkward

Muy buen producto y excelente desempeño, pero antes de un año falló en su eficiencia. Quise hacer efectiva la garantía (ofrecen 2 años en la misma página de Amazon) y me salieron conque esta empresa, solo vende y da servicio en USA y Canadá, y que no podían hacer nada porque el producto lo compre en Amazon Mexico. Esta es la respuesta que recibí: “ nuestros productos solo estaban destinados a ser vendidos en los EE. UU. y Canadá. No es Snow Joe + Sun Joe quien vende directamente nuestros productos fuera de los países mencionados. Su unidad se ordenó a Amazon, que es una compañía completamente diferente que nos solicita existencias y luego las revende en sus sitios web, incluido Amazon-México.” Y esta es su conclusión: En segundo lugar, seguimos comprometidos a brindar servicios de garantía a todas las unidades, incluida la suya. Solo que trabajamos solo dentro de EE. UU. y Canadá. En pocas palabras ya perdiste por no vivir en esos países. Pésimo servicio al cliente…!

Muy buena hidrolavadora, es potente, se transporta de un lugar a otro sin problema, es un poco pesada, tiene buena presión, las boquilla cumplen con su función, para hogar o detallado automotriz me sirve. Los dos contenedores de buen tamaño, la manguera es de 6mts, el cable de electricidad o toma corriente es de 10mts. En fin, al precio se me hace mejor que una Karcher.

The Sun Joe unit was the highest PSI/GPM combination I could find. The PSI/GPM combination is more important than just PSI, because the combination of the two is what gives any pressure cleaner the ability to maximize its cleaning effectiveness. As a result, this unit has amazing pressure cleaning capabilities for a portable 120V unit. It was immediately noticeable upon arrival, that this unit was well made. All the parts fit together well and the wand and hose had that quality look and feel. I was happy with my purchase. After using it for the past 2 years, I can honestly say, this is the best portable pressure washer I have ever owned. It has great cleaning ability using any of the 4 different nozzles that came with it. One of the things I like the best about it is the smooth quiet operation. It hums along and isn't overly intrusive from a noise standpoint. This makes it easier to use for long periods of time. I am a happy customer. I actually bought another Sun Joe product (a wood chipper) because I was so happy with the Sun Joe quality in this pressure washer.

He tenido 3 máquinas de presión, una Karcher que siempre se descompone, una Knova que también es muy buena y está lavadora a presión que me sorprendió por su potencia, hace un poco de ruido pero funciona excelente!

Llevo años usando la típica marca de hidrolavadoras amarillas, y esta es mucho mejor. Se siente más pesada, las piezas son para uso más rudo y el motor más potente. Lo compré basado en los "reviews" y la verdad es que todo fue cierto. Muy recomendable.
