Purchased the Greenworks model 3000 (psi) pressure washer on sale, and used it for two days outside surface cleaning in Aug 2023; liking the Greenworks model 3000 a lot. A quiet electric machine - online videos don't show how quiet it is. But online videos do show the Greenworks max psi is well under 3000 psi, eg the 15" Greenworks surface cleaner measured at 1000 psi (and the tips higher than 1000 psi), so the pwasher/surface cleaner should be safe for pavers. Packaged with wheels mounted; pwasher quickly assembled, no assembly issues, similar in size to my old gas 2600 psi Craftsman. Like its green appearance and its sturdy frame/body steel like my old gas pwashers. Its box arrived mostly pristine/undamaged, and parts looked sparkly new, unused - i see some one-star reviewers show otherwise. So thanks to those web videographers who measured the Greenworks psi pressures/gpm using pressure meters inline with gun and 5-gallon buckets to inform us of what each pwasher tip and surface cleaner psi and gallons per minute actually are. Greenworks should have easily provided that info, including their pump nomenclatures, so we as consumers can make a better choice, ie may not have needed the 3000 psi model if the pumps and internal electronics are the same for lower rated psi Greenworks models. For example, if a lower rated model has a pump to be avoided, then we can choose a better model. Used the Greenworks brand 15" surface cleaner on our wide (2-car) concrete driveway, concrete sidewalk, and 5' wide x 40 ft paver walkway, and delighted with the cleaning results. Even though I owned Craftsman gas pwashers for decades, did not know how low a psi pressure can be to clean concrete, so 1000 psi for concrete using the 15" diameter surface cleaner. (Using the surface cleaner is a must if you want to feel like a human when you are done, a great time saver). So the math falls to 500psi for each of the two surface cleaner rotating tips that clean concrete and pavers. Did not use the onboard soap reservoir yet- used a bucket of very diluted Zep concrete cleaner and just spilled it on and used a push broom. Phoned Greenworks, because neither their supplied instruction manual nor their online videos recommend a detergent, and their (annoyingly small print) instruction manual stated no acidic nor base detergents (page 9) should be used; that just leaves water as the detergent per their written directions. But the Greenworks responder suggested Simple Green as a guess for the soap dispenser Aug 2023. Purchased the Greenworks addon soap applicator on sale, but have yet to use it. fyi, entertaining to see the videos repeatedly miss which detergent to use; the video host only says "here is the Greenworks detergent reservoir", and skips to another pwasher part; an SNL moment. Did not find that the few second delay after pulling the gun/trigger or after elec powering on a nuisance as many reviewers suggested. An extension wand is required for the surface cleaner, because the supplied gun/wand are too short for using the 15" diameter surface cleaner. (Can purchase surface cleaner including an extension wand) No electric problem from a lamp post outlet 40+ ft from house with 12-guage underground wire on a 15 amp circuit ( I have not tried using an extension elec cord yet). Careful to keep garden hose and electric power cord and surface water separate. Initially, blow the surfaces. Rinsed the surface cleaner after each day of use; and relieved the gun pressure each time the washer was powered off to spend a little time rinsing a completed surface section. Smooth sailing so far. Btw, Trex does not recommend use of a pwasher, nor does Bob Villa recommend a pwasher on a house exterior - I still use the extension 22 ft aluminum threaded pole with replaceable brush and a bucket of very diluted Palmolive liquid dish detergent on vinyl siding to prevent my clothes from getting bleached by the stronger house exterior cleaning products, and this Palmolive solution is safe for Trex decks. More than a week later, amazed how good looking the driveway and sidewalks appear, wow! The age of the 36 ft concrete sidewalk is 42 years, the 50 ft driveway 25 years, and the 40 ft paver walkway 9 years. (Also cleaned a small concrete pad at our garage people door, and a nearby cluster mailbox concrete/aggregate pad for 16 neighbors on our cul-de-sac.) And yes, the Greenworks plastic holster for the pwasher gun is weak when in the upright/storage position; ok when in horizontal (working) position, but would prefer the decades old circular short plastic holding tube - reviewers are currently suggesting a bungee cord to bolster the holster; the reviewer used 3 holster bolts shown in his photos to anchor the gun whereas the model 3000 I received Aug 2023 only has two gun holster bolts. Also not a fan of the pressure hose holder which has a supplied bungee - our old gas Craftsman had a perfect hose holder on a strong plastic reel. But goodbye to gas pwashers! (applause). Hope this 3000 model will last; one-star reviewers do show some caution, and hope in general elec pwashers improve. Update 3/30/2025 Used Greenworks power washer again for the driveway. Pwashed each driveway section with Simple Green All Purpose cleaner - poured a very diluted solution by bucket, brushed it on, and used the surface cleaner. Had no problems using the Greenworks 3000 pwasher so far. Used a second hose for quick rinsing section by section. So our Greenworks pwasher is still alive after 3 years, and we keep it stored in our garage near our house wall so it's never below freezing for long. Driveway today looks amazing, and it hasn't been in dire need for cleaning for 2 years including today - so we could pass another year except for some mold on perimeter.. Sidewalk and paver walkway easily completed - nice! So Simple Green All Purpose Cleaner by spilled on bucket is good enough.

I chose this model (2700 psi, 2.3 gpm) because I wanted the convenience of electric but also needed something that could handle a 15-inch surface cleaner. I read dozens of online reviews/rankings and it consistently placed at/near the top. After washing my car and cleaning a long sidewalk, I am very impressed with its performance -- half the weight of my old gasoline model, quieter, easier to hook up, and equally effective. I also appreciate the full set of included nozzles. It should be practically maintenance-free (3 year warranty; 10 years on motor). The motor is rated at 14 amps, so I was concerned about using it on a 15A circuit. I had zero problems running it hard for over an hour (so 14 amps is obviously not a continuous load.) It SHOULD be connected to a 20 amp circuit, but if you don't have 20 amps available, my experience indicates that you'll still be OK. I found the 25 foot hose too short for my needs so I bought a 50 foot hose from Amazon. I was initially looking at more "manly" brands (Stihl, Simpson, Karcher, etc), but Greenworks came through with great performance at a great price. I'm very happy with my decision.

I have a nice, heavy duty Karcher gas power pressure washer that I use around my property. But I don't like using it in the winter due to the hassle of making sure it does not freeze (and it is too unwieldy to bring inside more than once each year for storage), and it is too large and heavy to take to my alternate property, or for small quick tasks. So I went shopping for a more portable, electric powered pressure washer whose price would not break the bank. I selected this "Greenworks 1500 PSI 1.2 GPM Pressure Washer (Upright Hand-Carry)"; note that the actual manufacturer's part number GPW1501. At just under $100 US, I was hoping that the quality was at least decent. I was a little surprised to see that this product was made in Vietnam (rather than China or Taiwan), although the Greenworks company appears to be based on Canada, and it appears that service and support is 'local', or within North America at least. The basic specifications are: - Pump housing dimensions; 18" tall, 11" wide, 9" deep (front to rear); these dimensions are approximate - Pump housing weight; 19 pounds (according to user's manual) - Pump maximum pressure; 1500 PSI - Pump flow; 1.2 GPM - Pump power: 120VAC, 60Hz, 13A (this should be plugged into a dedicated 15A circuit, or at least one where there is nothing else on the circuit currently turned on); the power cord is about 35 feet long and has a GFCI plug, so you can use this safely even with non-GFCI outlets; note that the GFCI plug head is pretty huge, so it might not fit into outdoor outlets which have weather-doors, etc; I had to use a short outlet extender cord in order to plug into my house's outdoor outlets - Handgrip has the usual pressure washer squeeze trigger control, and all high pressure hose and associated fittings are the conventional type used by most other pressure washers; I can use the longer pressure hose, handgrip, and accessories (including the nozzle tips) that are part of my larger Karcher machine when I am using this smaller Greenworks sprayer - High pressure hose is about 20 feet long (product can be ordered with longer hose lengths) - Accessories; 25° (green/narrow) and 40° (white/wide) spray heads/nozzles/tips, and a detergent 'tank' (bottle) with associated detergent spray head, and a small wire nozzle cleaning tool As with any home-use pressure washer, this one is easy to use, even easier than the larger gas powered ones since there is no need to mess with the engine, and THIS one automatically turns the electric pump on and off according to whether you are squeezing the handgrip trigger. Just screw the high pressure hose fittings onto the pump's fitting and the handgrip fitting, and connect a garden hose to the water inlet connection (which includes a screen), and plug in the power cord. There is a single control on the pump, "OFF/ON" (plus the handgrip trigger of course), so you turn that on, and start spraying. When you release the trigger, the pump automatically stops. When you squeeze the trigger again, the pump automatically starts. When you are done, turn the power switch off and disconnect the garden hose. As with all such pressure washers, you can quickly and easily replace the nozzle/tip according to the need of the moment, since it has the conventional quick connect fittings. Note that the handgrip has its own proprietary quick disconnect fitting where the 'spray wand' connects to the handgrip; this is not the conventional fitting, so you probably won't be able to use spray wands from other kinds of pressure washer with this machine's handgrip (but you can use other machines' handgrips with this machine). When you are using the detergent tank for spraying water and detergent, the detergent tank connects to the handgrip in place of the spray wand, using the same kind of proprietary quick disconnect fitting. The conventional quick disconnect fitting is found on the opposite end of the spray wand. I have so far used this sprayer to clean some siding on my house, and to wash my car. It worked fine and exactly as expected. It seems to be of decent quality, and the pump ran surprisingly quiet. I found the automatic start/stop to be a nice convenience (actually, having this feature might save cost since with it, the more common water recirculation valve on the pump is presumably not needed, and there is no worry about overheating). The handgrip trigger has a small piece of plastic that can be used to 'lock' the trigger in the OFF position for safety. However, it seems to be easily defeatable, thus is not of much real use. The manual does not describe the intent or use of this safety lock, other that to state that the user might need to move it from one position to the other. I found the power cord length to be very good, but it is a long and THICK cord, and what to do with it when the pump is not in use is the big question. I would have expected the pump body to have an integral pair of hooks, etc; which the cord could be wrapped around for stowage (as on vacuum cleaners, etc), and WHY Greenworks did not provide this is a mystery. I found the included 20 foot high pressure hose to be too short for my trial tasks, so I was happy that I was able to use the much longer hose from my Karcher washer. 20 feet of hose is really short once you actually try to use this sprayer, so I suggest opting for the model that comes with a longer hose. Also, the included hose comes tightly coiled, and I had a hard time trying to train it to relax so I could actually use it. Greenworks makes a similar, and somewhat more expensive, pressure washer which includes a reel for the hose (I did not choose that model since it looked like it made the overall unit too bulky). The GFCI plug does not include a grounding pin, and this is because the product is "double insulated". I think this is OK. Gripes: - The product overview diagram in the manual lists 14 pieces, but only three numbered arrows actually appear on the diagram, so pretty much useless. This kind of sloppy and ill-conceived content is found throughout the user's manual. - All illustrations are reproduced in a faint gray shade and very small, so hard to make out what is being shown. - The instructions for use of the detergent tank are confusing, in that they state that 'household detergents' should not be used since they might damage the pressure pump. 1) any kind of detergent one might wish to use with a pressure sprayer would be considered as a 'household detergent', 2) the pump is upstream of the detergent nozzle, with the 20 foot hose between them, so it seems very unlikely that whichever detergent is used would ever be in contact with the pump's innards. Stupid copy & paste mistake on the part of the manual's author. - "Do the instructions on the solution bottle to prepare detergent" is a not-uncommon bit of clumsy writing found in the manual. - There are no actual instructions for use of the detergent tank, other that how its quick disconnect works and the aforementioned clumsy cautions. - Just a few bits of plastic could have been added to facilitate storage of the power cord and hose, but Greenworks did not do this. - The rear of the pump unit has some shapes to the plastic that suggest a hint of storage potential, but if the designers intended a use for them, the manual does not describe or illustrate those uses. One tiny illustration seems to suggest that the handgrip and spray want might be stowed on the rear of the pump body, but when I tried to stow them, it did not work out, since I did not understand what was supposed to hold them in the pictured positions (the illustration shows the unit from the wrong side regarding this question). EDIT: After some fooling around over the course of several uses of this product, I have figured out a way to store everything: - Disconnect the spray wand from the handgrip. They then fit behind the large green plastic structure (I'll call it the LGPS) at the top rear of the sprayer body, and down into the two end pockets of the black plastic structure below that. - The detergent tank docks to the center of the LGPS, sticking out the back of the sprayer body. - The power cord can be looped such that its many coils hang over the rear of the sprayer body, hanging from the tops of the handgrip and spray wand as if they were hooks. - The 20 foot pressure hose gets similarly looped/coiled, hanging from the same devices that the power cord is hanging from. Note that if you buy the model with a longer pressure hose, there is probably not enough space to coil it in the manner I describe here. - The coiled power cord and pressure hose now surround the detergent tank. So, I think this is a decent product that should satisfy most casual users, for a reasonable purchaser price.

Fácil de mover y de utilizar. Ahorro de agua

The ad stated that this unit was 2.0gpm under the product description. The unit is not 2.0gpm it is 1.1gpm. I Would have like to of try the model that was advertised. Disappointing to say the least

Muy bien, se siente de buena calidad en sus componentes para el precio, solo que para ser 2000psi se siente de menor potencia .
