Q: I'm looking for a pressure washer $700 or less delivered. I'll be cleaning 2 vehicles with it weekly and monthly cleaning of house siding, gutters and driveway. That said, I'll need something strong enough for the driveway but that can be dialed back gentle enough for car washing and for use with a foam cannon. I'd prefer it to be 24x24 inches or less length x width (height doesn't matter) so I can store it in a corner in my garage and not have to rearrange to make it fit.
I've started to buy a commercial one locally but was worried it'd be too much power for car washing.
What do you recommend? Thanks!! by Chris Thompson from Georgia on July 16, 2016
A: We have one Scratch-N-Dent Generac 6564 available today at the price you're looking for- but it may be gone by the time you get this email.
I selected Gas, Cold Water pressure washers, then used the Select Price Range filter for $600 to $699 to pull up the units that fit your budget. Of those units the Briggs Elite 020541 almost fits your size requirement (it's 29" long instead of 24") and is a semi-pro unit.
The most bang for your buck will be the Simpson PS3228-S. It comes up as 34" long, but you could use the thumbwheels on the handle to remove it and turn the handle around over the engine for storage if you needed a smaller footprint- although I'm sorry, I have no way of knowing what that measurement is.
As far as power- some units have adjustable power that will throttle down the engine so it doesn't push as hard. Most folks use the spray tips themselves to control how hard the water hits- the red, 0° tip is very powerful and can strip paint; but the black tip (that also adds soap to the water) has a 65° fan spray that is very gentle for more delicate surfaces.
There are also Pressure Regulators that fit between your M22 spray gun and wand that allow you to reduce the pressure going through your spray nozzle if that would be more convenient for you. by Brian, Product Expert
The little brother to the Better model is the 3800 PSI Generac model which still packs plenty of punch for chores around the house or work on the job site.
It's perfect for the entrepreneur starting a pressure washer business or the high-end homeowner who insists on the best equipment available.
The durability of the triplex plunger pump on this machine makes it an overall great choice for pretty much all applications.

The Beast
After shopping around quite a bit, I purchased the Generac 6564, and its a Beast. Cleaning jobs are quick and easy. It was a bit larger than I expected.
Works great, I've got the knack for starting it first pull (no pressure, choke on, bit of throttle, and go).
I also bought a rotary nozzle, however I have put it away as it is a bit too aggressive for my uses so far, and the wand is a bit long.
I've got a bit of oil on the frame, have to see where it is coming from. Otherwise I really like this unit.
There is a soap injector, but no place to hold it, so I made a soap older from a plastic jug and some zip ties to hold in a 1 Gal Windshield washer fluid jug I fill with soap concentrate. Attached is a photo.

Mtd Gone
After 25 years my 4000psi, 4.0 gpm MTD finally died, completely. Got the Generac 3800 couple weeks ago and couldn't be happier. Starts with one pull and puts out the pressure and water that I need.
And BTW saved a few bucks by buying just a little smaller this time.
Very Satisfied.

Wand Leaks
Nice pressure washer, I've had it a few days now. Well thought out, starts well. Lots of pressure and easy to use.
Two cons are the wand is too long. I'm going to order the shorter one, and the wand leaked like a sieve at the junction with the stainless steel and brass fittings. Seems Generac didn't install any pipe dope or tape when then they assembled it. It was fixable but still a nuisance to have to repair a brand new machine.
Also the machine takes 37 ounces of engine oil and they shipped 32 so first thing I had to do was stop at the store and buy more oil before I could use it.
Overall satisfied with the design and function. Generac needs to work on their fit and finish though.

Boat Cleaning
Used on fiberglass boat and did very well, waiting on turbo nozzle for use on aluminum boat. Found the length of gun/wand excessive for my use, ordered shorter one through another company.
The supplied length would be useful for cleaning walls and structures, but not so much decks or in close work, to include pavement. I am six foot and found the length awkward. Would be nice if a 20 inch wand was available on your site for the higher pressure pw's.

Great Power Washer
WE have ordered and received two such units and found them to be as described. They function well and were both complete.
We however ordered a small part shortly after receiving the first unit and found that replacement parts take many weeks for delivery. (5-6 weeks)
This seems too long and is very disappointing.
Pros:Easy To Use, Price, High Quality, I'd Buy It Again
Cons:Replacement Parts Unavailable

Thomas,
We are very sorry to hear about the delay in the other part you ordered. We are not showing that item in our system. Could you have possibly ordered this from someone else?
While we are pleased to learn of your satisfaction with our pressure washers, we are disappointed to learn of the shipping-related issues that you have experienced. Who were these parts ordered through? If you call us directly at 888-GENERAC (436-3722), with your unit's serial number and the part number of the item you ordered, we should be able to look further into this matter for you.
I ordered it from Pressure Washers Direct and after it was delivered I noticed the top plastic piece was cracked. I called and they immediately shipped me a replacement, no questions asked. Thanks for excellent service and making my experience convenient and hassle-free.

Great So Far
Only used four or 5 times. Hook up are very easy. Runs great and has plenty of psi. Only complaint, a little hard to start engine. Sometime have to pull 6 times with choke on than turn off chock & keep pulling till starts. Seems to be a bigger problem when hot.

James,
Thank you for providing us with your review of the 3800 psi commercial grade pressure washer.
