ryobi 3000 psi pressure washer extension

(I was in Rural King awhile back, came upon a Stihl pressure washer mixed in with the string trimmers and chain saws and my knees buckled and my vision blurred a moment when I saw the price tag on that sucka! However going forward I do not believe I am going to be lucky enough to find anyone to rebui,d the pump, 'next time.' :-(Īnd thus, I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS THREAD!!! Man, what you say about engines outlasting the pumps is soooo true! I have a nearly 20 year old Campbell-Hausfeld run-o-the-mill model with a B&S engine on it which literally 'sings' but, on which the 2,000 psi pump has been rebuilt twice.

MasterMech, Col, all contributing, just wanna shout-out a huge, 'Thank You!' and THIS IS YET ANOTHER GRRRRREAT TLF THREAD !!!! But I'm not likely to actually need another pressure washer - ever. I do enjoy window shopping on sites like Pressure Washers Direct just to see what's out there and the current price points. Mi-T-M is the OEM for my unit, they make fantastic pressure washers for everything from residential through commercial/municipal (read: sewer!) applications.

Sometimes a little more flow would be handy to get things like my driveway done quicker. It does everything I need and does it fairly quick. Top-shelf AR pump, had a 7 year warranty on the pump. I know this question is coming, I have a John Deere branded unit. :shock: But HD electric units are awesome to use and do run somewhat quieter than equivalent gas units. 10AWG 100' extension cords cost more than a gas engine these days. You also are limited by how much power you can draw from a 120v/20a wall receptical via a long extension cord. They aren't cheap, which just reinforces that the price indicates and emphasizes the quality of the pump, more than the engine. Nozzles and other accessories are easily obtained so I don't pay much attention to that for the initial purchase. I'll pay for long-life flexible hoses, and a quality spray gun. That's a general rule of thumb of course, because until they start publishing the flow curve for the pumps, you don't really know how one pump would compare to another for any given application. In short, I'd take a 2500 psi 3.0 gpm unit over 3000 psi 2.5 gpm every time. You can overcome a couple hundred psi difference with proper nozzle/accessory selection, flow is what matters the most. I want a good engine, (preferably horizontal crankshaft) and an even better pump. I really don't see value in 'extras' like on-board detergent tanks, electric start, chrome wheels, etc. I can't stress this enough, money buys performance. If you are the DIY type and really enjoy playing with your toys, then you have some more options for sure. Consider hiring out the annual driveway/sidewalk/house cleaning as those jobs take forever and a day with a small washer. If this machine will be only be used to clean the patio furniture, a wood fence once a year and other small jobs, then even the small electric ones do a fine job, and I'd prob stay electric vs gas in that case too. My advice for homeowners looking at pressure washers is to start with the task. There are no real design tricks or advantages, only compromises.
