This product gets the job done, simple to set up and use, has some leakage at the hose inlet on the front when water’s running (can tape it) but pressure and washing capacity is perfect for washing cars

This is a great machine, easy to use, lots of power. The nozzle selection allows you to change the water stream to match what you are cleaning, and the nozzles are easy to install. The output hose is long which makes for easy use. The cart is good. All around a very good machine, much much better than the ones that I previously bought from the auto supply stores.

Muy buen producto y excelente desempeño, pero antes de un año falló en su eficiencia.Quise hacer efectiva la garantía (ofrecen 2 años en la misma página de Amazon) y me salieron conque esta empresa, solo vende y da servicio en USA y Canadá, y que no podían hacer nada porque el producto lo compre en Amazon Mexico.Esta es la respuesta que recibí: “ nuestros productos solo estaban destinados a ser vendidos en los EE. UU. y Canadá. No es Snow Joe + Sun Joe quien vende directamente nuestros productos fuera de los países mencionados. Su unidad se ordenó a Amazon, que es una compañía completamente diferente que nos solicita existencias y luego las revende en sus sitios web, incluido Amazon-México.”Y esta es su conclusión: En segundo lugar, seguimos comprometidos a brindar servicios de garantía a todas las unidades, incluida la suya. Solo que trabajamos solo dentro de EE. UU. y Canadá.En pocas palabras ya perdiste por no vivir en esos países.Pésimo servicio al cliente…!

Llevo años usando la típica marca de hidrolavadoras amarillas, y esta es mucho mejor. Se siente más pesada, las piezas son para uso más rudo y el motor más potente. Lo compré basado en los "reviews" y la verdad es que todo fue cierto. Muy recomendable.

Muy buena hidrolavadora, es potente, se transporta de un lugar a otro sin problema, es un poco pesada, tiene buena presión, las boquilla cumplen con su función, para hogar o detallado automotriz me sirve. Los dos contenedores de buen tamaño, la manguera es de 6mts, el cable de electricidad o toma corriente es de 10mts. En fin, al precio se me hace mejor que una Karcher.

If your pressure washer completely stopped working, read this!I had bought this pressure washer just over 2 years ago for one job lasting about 4 hours total. At the time, I put the unit away and forgot about it for 2 years until I needed it this summer. When I took it out and fired it up, the pump ran for about 5 seconds then "died." I tried for days to get it to work with no luck. I was one week over the 2 year warranty, so I was pretty ticked off I was stuck with this hunk of junk.Then talking with a guy at work he mentioned you're supposed to use a pump protector lubricant after each time you use the pressure washer. I read up on this a bit, and the leftover water in the unit can cause the pumps internal gaskets to seize up. This might be due to the minerals in the water, I don't really know. I was considering buying a different unit, then thought I'd take a shot at using the pump protector liquid on my "dead" pressure washer.At Wall Mart I bought "Powerfit 3oz Power Washer Pump Protector" in the tools isle. This $5 liquid brought my pump and pressure washer right back to life!! You actually screw the plastic threads on the bottle into the threaded garden hose inlet on the pressure washer. Then just squeeze the bottle a bit. I didn't realize if I was doing it right because I couldn't tell if the liquid was actually going in. About 10 minutes later I connected the hose and the unit worked.Hope this helps some people!Update 5-21-18 - Another easy fix for dead unit :)------------------------------------------------------------------------This week I had an issue with the pump not starting, that the power wash pump protector liquid trick didn't fix. I tried different outlets thinking it was an electrical issue. It turned out to be an electrical issue within the GFCI plug of the power washer unit (likely from me leaving it outside in the rain a few days last year.) With the unit unplugged, take a phillips screwdriver and take the cover off of the unit's GFCI plug. With the cover popped off, if you see lots of moisture that's been trapped in the plug, that will prevent it from running.I bought a replacement plug at my local hardware store. You can find the same replacement plug I used successfully to fix my pressure washer by typing this into the Amazon search bar: "Leviton 16693 15-Amp, 120-Volt, Grounded, Compact Automatic Reset Right Angle GFCI"It's about a 5 minute job.. Just reconnect the wires to the new GFCI plug (Black wire to gold connector, white to silver) and turn the screws to secure the wires in place. Screw down the "U" shaped stress clamps that come with the new plug, they hold the wire in tightly. Then attach the new cover, and you're good to go.Update 7-20-20 - Maintenance on quick connect spray nozzles------------------------------------------------------------------------5 years later my Sun Joe washer is still going strong. After your pressure washer has been around a few seasons, it's possible that the very fine holes in the quick connect spray nozzles will get some corrosion. Any little corrosion can affect the amount of water that can pass through, and I found will often prevent the pump from running and shut the pump off. If your pump turns on and runs with no spray nozzle attached to the wand, but does not work with the nozzle attached that's a clear sign you need to do some maintenance on your nozzles to reopen the holes in the nozzle.What I did was take a bowl and fill it with Vinegar. I just used vinegar because I had it in the house, there may be other good methods to get rid of the corrosion. I soaked all the nozzles in the bowl for about 3 hours. Then I took a sewing needle and poked around the hole to clear out any corrosion. Soaked them for a couple more hours, and then rinsed them off under some hot water. Then I dried them off and sprayed each nozzle with little olive oil cooking spray to help prevent any more corrosion before storing them. There are lots of corrosion inhibitors on the market I just used something I had around. This method worked well as it opened 3 plugged nozzles for me.

In a former life I used a pressure washer almost daily. The best pressure washers imho have a Honda GX series commercial grade engine, a CAT pump (which can be rebuilt) and 3000psi+ pressure. They clean well and hold up well over the long haul but are expensive, starting in the $700 to $800 range and out of my budget range.I didn't expect much when I ordered the Sun Joe SPX 3000 but I was pleasantly surprised especially considering the price (Deal of the Day) I paid. Ordered on a Sunday and it was sitting on the front porch Tuesday (thanks Amazon!). It's packed well and that's a good thing considering the box was found upside down- no damage thanks to the good packaging. Assembly is easy ... if you read the manual first, it's clear and concise. I'd use a regular or ratcheting screwdriver instead of a power tool (i.e.cordless drill or impact driver) on the self tapping screws used for assembly- there's far less risk of stripping the hole. Mine came with a metal supply fitting instead of the all plastic one others have mentioned - no leaks.The Good- it works well. The pro style gun tips make it versatile- even at just 2000 psi the 0 degree tip can do some real damage if you're not careful.. No, it doesn't have the power of a commercial grade pressure washer but so far it has done everything I and most homeowners would ask of it- clean siding, concrete walks, the nasty underside of a mower deck or your vehicle. It's quiet especially compared to gas engine powered pressure washers. There's no gas to buy or oil to change. Two year (residential use only) warranty, a better warranty than many. And real live U.S. based humans in customer serviceThe Bad- it's a bit difficult to move with the 35' (iirc) power cord on the rear and the water supply hose on the front. And you WILL have to move it as there's only 20' of high pressure hose. I'm going to order Sun Joe's SPX-25H 25' extension hose later this month- 45 total feet of high pressure hose will save a lot of moving. I disconnect the supply hose before moving- the new supply coupling may be metal but it attaches to a plastic fitting on the machine. Dragging around 25' or more of garden hose can't be good for it.Suggestions- 1. Check your water supply before you buy any pressure washer. Take the hose you're going to use with the pressure washer and fill a 5 gal. bucket for exactly one minute. Check the quantity of water in the bucket- you should have at the very least what your pressure washer is rated for (1.76 GPM in the case of the Sun Joe) and preferably more.. Some older homes with galvanized steel water pipes have id's the size of a pencil due to years of sediment/corrosion and will not have enough water flow as will some homes on wells .... better to know before you buy. And if you have enough water flow, make sure you open your hose bib/wall hydrant/ spigot ALL the way, every time. Using a larger hose can help- I use a 3/4" commercial garden hose on mine instead of the usual 5/8". 2. Read the manual thoroughly before you start, especially if this is your first pressure washer.... you will probably save yourself some aggravation. 3. At first sign of freezing weather get your pressure washer to someplace where it won't freeze unless you want to wind up with an expensive plant stand on wheels.Conclusion- The Sun Joe SPX 3000 is a good machine at a great price and for most residential homeowners, it is as good as it gets. It's quiet, does the job, no gas to buy or oil to change.Update 9/13/20:It's still working and still no complaints. The extra length of hose has been helpful. Store it properly and you should get good life out of it.
