best pressure washer info - campbell-hausfeld-pw-1805 Campbell Hausfeld electric pressure washer provides more effective cleaning power than a traditional garden hose, while using 80% less water. With the addition of steam, you can clean, disinfect and degrease projects. This unit is ideal for driveways, patios, decks, RVs, ATVs and much more. This unit includes accessories like storage for gun, lance, detergent cup and power cord. Also included with the unit are adjustable fan lance, fan varies from a thin stream to a wide pattern, turbo (rotary) lance which boosts effective cleaning power, and detergent bottle.

Pros:
It is easy to operate, well designed and light weight (it doesn’t gouge on wood like heavier machines). It comes with two wands, an adjustable fan spray and a turbo nozzle which is my favorite – aggressive cleaning without gouging.

The range is good; I was able to clean siding/gutters about 10 feet away, with the “fan” wand turned to its narrowest setting.

It’s an electrical model thus it to minimize maintenance. Unlike gas operated machines, this unit saves you from oil leaks and unwanted odors of petroleum or gas.

Cons:
One less-pleasing safety-feature is the trigger, which has to be held closed the whole time you’re washing– it takes a fair amount of tension to hold and my hands notice the effort after 30-60 minutes use. This may also make this unit more suitable for home-use than for the pro who are washing all day long.

There’s a modest level of vibration through the pressure-hose and handle, which adds to the hand fatigue after extended usage.

The cleaner comes with a swivel hose connection but it is not easy to connect/disconnect with soapy hands.

The detergent bottle is not made of clear plastic. So, when filling, you don’t know when it’s full or later, when it’s empty. Furthermore, it is somewhat difficult to attach the bottle to the wand. If you put too much pressure on the bottle, it will just pop off the fitting that attaches to the wand.
