" ... Did a nice job on cleaning house siding,cleaned a radiator on farm machine, and cleaned off a 7 year accumulation on deck. ... "
" ... upon opening the box, completing the minor assembly & filling with the supplied oil I was excited to start cleaning. ... "
" ... I use it to clean up my back yard and keep the boardwalk clean, they have some great attachments that do that really well, the machine works terrific but you cant keep it in the cold and start it right up, it must be kept in room temp to use it, no big deal I guess but they should still tell you that ... "
" ... Started on second pull, runs great and plenty of pressure for cleaning everything I need to do! ... "
" ... Oil change was easy to do. ... "
" ... For me, it is just the right amount of PSI for cleaning. ... The quart of oil is in a pouch and of course ended up getting spilled because its flopping all over the place when you go to pour in the oil. ... That is extreme cleaning right there although it wouldnt remove baked in paint off the ground. ... "
" ... Wasnt top of the line but gets the job done no matter how dirty it is it did a great job and all the extra accessories are great i rate 5 STARS ... "
" ... I cleaned the whole deck. ... All of these all without needing cleaning detergent or chemicals. ... "

" ... I've seen what other people mean when they say the wheels feel loose or wobble. ... They seem a little cheap, but haven't fallen off or broken, so no big deal. ... Also, the metal hook to wind the hose around is pretty much useless. ... "

" ... 2) Plastic bag with instructions and some parts was torn open ... 5) Paint has been scuffed off the muffler leaving bare metal. ... "
" ... One of the wheels was very wobbly and missing parts. ... "
" ... The gun holder is also very flimsy and I don’t expect it to last long. ... The boxes aren't designed to withstand this. ... "
" ... I would be ok with a little vibration, but the unit shakes so bad that the rubber isolator in the front (makes contact with the ground), leaves black marks on the concrete. ... "
