![]() On the positive side, it was quite effective at clearing away mud, sand, and even paint from all surfaces. The Dewalt’s soap tank is easy to load, use, and empty the Ryobi’s soap tank is dark, hard to load, and nigh impossible to empty. The Dewalt has five nozzles ranging from soft to abrasive the Ryobi has a soft soap nozzle, an abrasive 15-degree nozzle, and a super abrasive turbo nozzle. The Dewalt has 10-inch pneumatic wheels the Ryobi has 12-inch plastic wheels. ![]() Whereas the Dewalt’s engine shuts off when the trigger is released, the Ryobi’s engine runs the whole time the machine is turned on. The soap tank is extremely easy to load and the suds the machine shot out were plentiful.Īnother professional-looking pressure washer, the Ryobi RY142300 cuts a few too many corners, which is curious because it is one of the more expensive machines in this field. We did enjoy using the soap function, though. It also includes 40- and 25-degree nozzles. Unlike other pressure washers, no 0-degree spray tip was included, so we conducted most of the tests with the 15-degree nozzle and the turbo nozzle, which wasn’t as effective as we would have liked. It’s effective at clearing away mud and sand, but surprisingly slow at clearing away paint from all surfaces. Releasing the trigger on the spray away quickly and effectively shuts off the engine entirely. When blasting away debris, the engine never got that loud, and the jet of water didn’t clang off the testing surfaces that much. Wheeling it around on its 10-inch pneumatic wheels is a breeze, which is a good thing because it weighs over 45 pounds.īelying its heft, the Dewalt DWPW2400 runs surprisingly quietly. One of the best electric pressure washers on the market, this beast of a machine is marketed as a consumer device, but you’ll feel like a professional when you use it. All the bonus attachments are just icing on the cake. We also thought the device itself felt a bit flimsy and cheaply made, but for the price, you can’t beat the sheer cleaning power of the Wholesun 3000PSI. Strangely enough, though, those nozzle heads don’t have any onboard storage, so make sure you don’t lose the plastic bag they came in. Being able to wind the hose up, wrap the power cord onto the back, and have a slot for the spray attachments meant this little device can be neatly stored away without taking up too large of a footprint. The wind-up storage reel for the device’s 20-foot hose was a real show-stopper. It has four spray nozzles (40-, 25- 15-, and the intensely abrasive 0-degree nozzle), a bottle nozzle for soap cleaning (which it does really well), and a brush head for detailing work. Using 15- and 0-degree nozzles, it slowly cleaned away paint from vinyl and aluminum siding, wood, brick, and pavement when others failed.īut what we really liked about this little green machine was everything that was included in the box. The Wholesun cleaned mud and a clogged gutter with considerable ease. That was considerably more than even some of the industrial-style washers we tested. ![]() This washer packs a punch with 3,000 pounds of water pressure per square inch, and a 2.4 GPM. tall, this 19-pound machine is a compact little thing. The first thing you’ll probably notice about the Wholesun 3000PSI pressure washer is how light it is. Overall, we think the Karcher Power Control is the best pressure washer because it’s powerful but also approachable and it performed solidly throughout testing. The one issue we experienced with this Karcher pressure washer was that the hose was stiffer than the previous models. Same philosophy for the detergent tank, you simply plug the detergent bottle in and out. The K4 comes with an adapter that screws onto the hose and then it’s a matter of clipping the hose in and out of the unit. Like the lances, the hose is also simple to install. All you need to do is insert the wand into the handle and twist, when it clicks it’s secure. Both are easier to install than the small jet heads that many other pressure washers use. ![]() The second is a high-pressure spray wand that specializes in the toughest jobs. By twisting it you can change the aperture from sudsing up your car all the way to stripping paint. The first spray wand has adjustable pressure. It comes with only two wands, but possesses more versatility than its competitors. What sets the K4 Power Control apart from other pressure washers on this list is how easy it is to use. During testing, it was able to peel paint off a sign and make quick work of a grimey brick wall. It’s very powerful without being cumbersome. Not only is the Karcher K4 Power Control the best electric pressure washer out there, it's also the best overall.
