Problems out of the gate but now it's a workhorse

2008-07-02
When I received the washer I unboxed it and had it hooked it up within minutes. I went around the corner to turn on the hose and when I returned I saw that water was streaming out of the swivel adapter (a small plastic connector between the garden hose and the pressure washer). I tightened it and retightened it, tried adding and removing rubber washers, and still could not resolve the leak.

Finally I emailed Campbell Hausfeld about my problem and they mailed me a new swivel adapter. I hooked it up and it still leaked! Finally I took matters into my own hands and cut the small retaining barbs off the rubber washer on each side of the adapter. This allowed it to lay flat and resolved the leak.

With that issue resolved I've been using this unit to strip paint from the brick exterior of my house (in combination with a chemical stripper). Once the stripper has loosened up the paint this washer takes it right off. I was worried that pressure washing the brick might damage it but this unit seems to have enough power to remove the softened paint while not harming the brick or mortar.

This unit is certainly not the most powerful out there but if you're tempted to buy the biggest, most powerful washer out there you need to be aware that they can gouge wood and brick. This unit does a good job without the potential for damage.

OK but not as advertised

The pressure washer worked fine. But unlike the product description says, it does not come with a turbo nozzle or car care kit. There also is no built in compartment to hold the cord and lance. The part list in the box also shows a detergent bottle, which also does not really come with. After 20 minutes on the phone with the manufacturer, I was told to contact Amazon and work it out with them.

Amazon asked me to return it. I'll order a different one this time.

Great Item for the price!

I bought this for my husband -- he loves it! This product is very strong and dependable for the little price! Highly recommended.

Not as Pictured

I received this unit a few days ago, and was suprised to find it is not look anything like the unit in the photo. It is much smaller, and does not allow for attaching the accessories to the unit. It is basically a small carry unit - much lower-tech looking than the one in the photo. It also did not have a car kit, or a soaping wand. The basic unit works fine, and Amazon made some adjustments to keep me happy, but don't order this and expect to receive what is in the photo with all the accesssories.

Good value

Works well. The only problem is that the connectors are plastic and I was lazy and jerked on the hose to move the appliance instead of picking it up, breaking the plastic piece. They were very nice and replaced it right away.

Great washer, hard to store

Works well

Could be a little stronger but it's holding up good. Customer service is top notch. I use this to clean my driveway and moss off bricks in the backyard.

Not up to the standard

I tried this pressure washer. The first came damaged and had to return. The second one lasted for 3 car washings. The components are flimsy and do no hold up under normal wear and tear. Mine is going in the garbage can. Save your money and buy a different pressure washer. This one does not meet the quality standards that you would expect at any price.

The pressure washer works well. Hovever, it turns out to be a bit small for the surface cleaning that I regularly do. I should have acquired a larger unit in the range of 1500 to 1800 psi - 1.8 gpm or more.

I love it!!. Great power, easy to use. Haven't used any of the attachments yet, but like that they have a bag to keep them all together.
