I have a 2500 PSI With a 5.5 HP Honda motor. Bought it at Northern a couple years ago. On sale it was 349.00. I use it a lot and it works great. The only maintainance I have done is oil changes. The spray tip is starting to wear out from use though so I will probably have to replace it.

I bought a Campbell Hausman(I think) from WalMart. It is 1725 PSI and has worked flawlessly for me. One thing I did learn is that you need to let the hose run first before you hook it up to get the air out of it. I have my hose rolled on a hose carrier and that thing holds the air in. No problems though.

Yes it is electric. I just could see buying a gas one for this application. I think it was like $200. I've had it for 6-8 months.

I bought a Generac 2300psi with a 6hp B&S about a year ago at Lowes. It works great, always starts on the first or second pull. I haven't had a single problem with it, and use it on average twice a week.
Just my opinion, but I'd stay away from Honda powered equipment.

I was using my buddies 1400 psi electric washer,he come got it and the pump burned out a few wks later.I have been told by him and about 3 others to stay away from the electric pressure washers,pumps are very hard on them?
I bought a floor model Generac 6hp 2250PSI at Home Depot for 210 dollars a few wks back.I took it back today because the engine has quit on me twice and I've only used the darn thing 4 times.I think I want a Honda engine on this washer instead of the lower priced Briggs/Stratton that some of the others have.Whats everyone using?How much?
