Hey guys,

I am in the market for an electric power washer.
Any recommendations? Read a post about powerworks...seemed to do the job well. Also what foam lance are you guys using?

Let me know, I appreciate your feedback =)

I've been using the Cleanforce 1800Psi 1.5GPM. Works Great, Long cord. Has a nice wind up feature for the hose. Does a great job. Cost about 160$ at Home Depot. Something happens to it bring it back and grab another. Also has a solution tank but I've never used it.

I use a Greenworks one I picked up at Lowes for under $100. My advice is to get one that stands up and is on wheels of some kind.

I switched from Electric to Gas. I got a Craftsman 2000psi 1.8GPM at Sears for $149. Works like a charm!

that link isn't active. Can you post in text what it was? Also curious as to why gas vs electric?

I have a gas but often wish I had electric. Sometimes here in NE Ohio its cold but I can still work outside, gas won't start so it would be nice to just plug in and go.

Stihl ###!! I was at the local small engine repair shop and was talking to him about pressure washers. I really recommended a Stihl, very few problems and he could get any parts need if there was an issue. He has a real "hate" for the cheap Kärcher and other "disposable" washers. He is also a repair shop for most pressure washers out there, Kärcher, hotsy eta. Buy something you could possible fix or has a replacement warranty. He said most if the cheap one are unfixable so the warranty they come with are useless.
