 Most Helpful Critical ReviewDon't Waste Your Money
Bought this belt new. Used it for the first time today. First 20 minutes it was a dream to use. At the 21 minute mark the bolt that holds gun to belt tore through the fabric.Very disappointing!!! Guess I should have got the cheaper brand!!!

If you're still within the warranty period you may want to give them a call at (888) 474-5487 to see if they'll replace it for you. more Was this review helpful? 11 |

 Useless Product
I bought a telescoping wand that came with this "belt" and on delivery a clip was broken, but I was able to fix that with some duct tape. After 30 minutes of pressure washing a strap broke off and upon further inspection all the the stitching on this belt was falling apart.
I believe the failure is due to low quality / inferior stitching. They use the same strength thread you would find on delicate clothing. in fact i believe the button on my pants uses stronger thread than this product. I guarantee if you buy this you will be disappointed! It's really a shame because I can't find another one anywhere making the use of any pressure washer wand over 8' useless. Its downright criminal that they would call this a tool! I bought a telescoping wand that came with this "belt" and on delivery a clip was broken, but I was able to fix that with some duct tape.

Totally Worthless And Potentially Dangerous
I received the belt along with an 18' telescoping wand and proceeded to give the new tools a dry run before cranking up the washer. The wand seemed sturdy and easy to extend.
The belt looked pretty but fell apart first time I tried it on. The clamping design is weak and potentially dangerous. I am glad that I tried a dry run before there was pressure to the wand and then had the belt fail while washing.
Pros: None Cons: Low Quality, Unreliable, Bad Instructions, Durability Wesley Does Not Recommend This Product Product Expert Wesley, I checked your order history, and it shows that we responded to the previous review you posted yesterday with an email that included apologies and the news that we are shipping you a replacement belt right away.
Today's review came up under the new order number; and I didn't immediately connect the two. Please disregard my suggestion to call the folks at GP directly- I can take care of that from here.
We appreciate your business, and apologize again for the inconvenience! moreWas this review helpful? 60 |

Hard To Hold
Very hard to hold even with the belt. Poor instruction on how to hold the pole and trigger at the same time.
Need two people. Not very happy with purchase, bought it to make the job easier, not harder.

Quality Is Fair
We purchased a 24' aluminum telescoping wand. The quality was fair. The quick connect was leaking on the very first use. We had to take the quick connect apart and use Teflon tape to stop the leaking.
The belt, a General Pump product was useless. The belt fell apart on the very first use along the stitching.
To make all matters worse I have not been contacted by Pressure Washers Direct yet after two calls & 1 e-mail regarding these products.
These are good reasons not to buy on line and continue purchasing through a local paint store. We purchased a 24' aluminum telescoping wand. The quality was fair. The quick connect was leaking on the very first use. We had to take the quick connect apart and use Teflon tape to stop the leaking.

Wand Belt
Lower clip is great....but....it needs an upper clip to help the intense strain from holding and spraying water at the top of a two story building.
The present strap is a good start but not the answer.

Wand Belt
Ordered the belt and shipping was good.... As far as the "Belt" I would NOT recommend it... I was the belt for Only 2 mins and it broke... I will have to send it back.
Product Expert Dan, Please give the folks at General Pump a call, toll free, at (888) 474-5487; they will be happy to send you a replacement.
Please remember that the belt is meant to stabilize the telescoping wand; the operator needs to lift & support the wand during use. moreWas this review helpful? 40 |

Good Idea, Bad Design & Quality
Instructions written by someone who had never used the Belt. Stitching on loops started busting the 1st X I used it. Would have been nice to have a "How To" video. Ended up using the harness for my String Trimmer held down by a Metal buckled belt.

A Must Have
If you are using a telescopic wand you will need this. It is still a handful, but it would be near impossible without it.

Practical Washer Belt
Needed to hold the extended handle of our pressure washer. The washer belt fits the need.
