I need a pressure washer for an extended length of time. Robin Rents on the Parkway rents them out for $75/day and I'll need one for two weekends ... $300

I can get these two from Sam's club, both with Honda engines. I'd like to get the cheaper one with 2800 PSI. Is that enough for cleaning siding, concrete, and brick? Or do I need to spend another $100 and get the 3200 PSI ?

2800 PSI for $300

3200 PSI for $400




I don't want to pass quietly into the night. I want to slide in sideways kickin and screamin

I have found that it is always better to have More PSI. I would spend the extra $100

Both of those will be enough for medium duty work like you mentioned. Do yourself a favor and buy a $50 surface washer attachment and you will cut your time at least in half.

2800 would get the job done, but I'd rather have a 3200. Jomax and bleack work good on sideing. So good you can clean it with a water hose. Which is better cause you can knock holes in it with pressure washer.

Bought some Jomax the other day, sitting in my garage awaiting ... I heard it was excellent for mildew

It's not always about the PSI. When you consider one is 2.3 GPM vs 2.4 GPM, I'd save the $100 for something else.

GPM is more important taht the PSI. Go with a minimum of 4GPM.

Can't afford a 4 GPM. The 3.4 is $800

2800 psi gets everything done around the house for me. I bought mine from lowes when they were on sale around Father's Day for $225. No issues so far but it doesn't have the Honda engine on it.


The secret to a long marriage is to keep on dating, just as you did before marriage. We have "date night" once a week.
Hers is Saturday, mine is Thursday.

The only time a married woman gives those is if your not married to them!

PSI dont mean near as much as GPM. Mine does 5 GPM and pushes a 30" concrete saucer pretty good, but its only doing around 3200 psi.

The regular quick connect tips in a 15 degree pattern with a 4.0 orifice work the best for anything you are doing. Don't be scared and use the 0 degree tip for high stuff- you wont hurt anything.

I bought the 2800 and used the extra $100 to buy a turbo nozzle and some bleach and mildew wash

Once again, I bought the 2800 PSI

I spent 7 hours spraying yesterday. I borrowed the surface attachment from a neighbor and bought a turbo nozzle. It did a fantastic job, did everything I needed it to do

Thanks for all the tips

Be careful with that turbo nozzle! It will take your skin off or worse.
