I just added the Fakespot app you used. I never saw that before. I did notice that there were suspicious reviews. 2 were exactly the same, just with different names and dates. "It is easy to use, easy to store, and powerful. Highly recommend the foam attachment too!"

OF, I have the SunJoe SPX 3000. Lots of em out there...probably the most sold electric pressure washer. No, it’s not the top of the line but I got mine via Home Depot for $129. Has worked great for a year. I find I use it a lot more than my Honda High Pressure Gas washer cuz it’s so easy to use. Biggest drawback are the 15mm as opposed to 14mm standard fittings; though pretty minor when you get the converters so you can do all quick connect fittings. I bought an extra 25’ of hose so I can leave the washer in one place. I splurged on the handle so foam cannon isn’t way out on the end of the wand:

Foam Cannon was only $20 and it works really well! Can’t say I can see any reason to buy the MTM version which probably runs 4 times that or more:

You definitely want something like this... Makes power washing wheel wells and undercarriage a breeze:

Here’s the quick connect adapter for the Sun Joe. M22-15mm. Will want at least 2 of these for either end of the pressure hose (I also have quick connects for all my standard hoses and one on the Sun Joe where the garden hose connects). You’re supposed to detach the pressure hose anyway each time you put it away but it’s a major hassle if you don’t have the quick connects.

All in all, pretty satisfied for the price. Works just well...more pressure than you need for a vehicle. In my opinion, ya gotta go a LOT more expensive to get much better, but there will certainly be detractors. I just wasn’t looking to spend that much so I’m pretty satisfied.

Thanks for all the great info everyone! Good informative thread.
I got a fairly cheap Ryobi from HD. Been great for washing The truck with a cannon. I would recommend at least 2000 psi. Only problem with the electric is if you are wanting to use this same washer for cleaning driveways and around the house I don’t feel its enough. Need gas and more like 3200 psi.
at least with the electric I don’t worry about tearing up the truck from the pressure.

Sun Joe SPX3000 has worked for the past 4 years with no issues. This costs 150 bucks and if it ever brakes I can just get another one and still be ahead. It’s a power washer, I’m not passing this thing on to my kids or some other nonsense.
I have a kranzle and it works great but if I did it again the comet would be my choice. And to be clear obsessive garage sells the only static kranzle in that size. The best thing about a static power washer is when your farting around with washing your truck it shuts off. That is why the comet is a great deal for the money. It hits the GPM and is static. I have added a hose reel since this photo
