same pressure washers different companies

[215Detailing]

Why are so many electric pressure washers identical example
1. Black Max 1,700 PSI Electric Pressure Washer with Surface Cleaner
2. Ryobi 1700-PSI 1.2-GPM Electric Pressure
3. 1700 PSI Pressure Washer ? Power Stroke

Yes a few gas models are very close as well

Is this a serious question?

They're all made by the same factory, the only difference is the color of the plastics, and the sticker they put on them.

yes sir, maybe someone knows that one company that makes but are sold and branded under some other company but may all have matching parts with different part numbers, I own a gas unit the pump may be the issue found different brand companies with same unit as my unit which is now discontinued, different part numbers on the pumps but the exact same pump from what I have been told of as of lately

So what are you saying, you have a gas pressure washer, the pump is bad, you can't buy the pump, so you are trying to find another brand that uses the same pump and maybe they still have the part available?

If that's the case I would have titled your thread something like "need pump for xxx brand pressure washer".
