Been looking for reviews and finally i see one. THANK YOU

I bought this exact same model just under a year ago and I love it. I bought it to keep my home clean and it does great. I have vinyl siding so the it's not too strong for my home but strong enough. I use ethanol free free. I've never had an issue with starting, stalling nor leaking.

Thank you for the info I just purchased the same unit and have not started it yet! Thanks for taking the time to do all that!

Great review. Good to see that not everything about a product is “great”. Thanks for mentioning the cons you had about the product.

Thank you for sharing, it was most impressive review and you answered all my questions. Thank you so much.

Good job, helpful and informative... I hope you did the whole fence!

I just picked this up today at our Sam's club here in Charleston, WV. Clearance sale for ..... are you ready? $149.91. You can change the oil in this engine which I would highly recommend doing each year. 2 ways to do this. Always have the water hose hooked up to it and the water turned on and run water through the wand to insure that you have water going through the pump. Never start one of these up without first being sure that it has water running through the pump. Start it up and let it run for a couple of minutes while spraying the water out of the wand. Spray it in the yard or on the driveway really anywhere. Shut the motor off, turn off the water going to the pump. Relieve the pressure from the wand, then disconnect the water hose and the pressure hose so that nothing is in the way. Have you a small pan setting next to the pressure washer, remove the dipstick from the oil fill and lay the pressure washer on it's side to drain the oil from the oil fill into the pan, Always dispose of the oil properly. 2nd option is to buy one of the small hand pumps that has a hose on the top and one on the bottom. Following the instructions that come with the pump put the suction hose into the fill/dipstick tube until it hits the bottom of the oil sump and put the other hose into a pan, a empty 2 liter pop bottle or what ever you have to use. With this method you can pump it out cold but preferably you should still warm up the engine as above, but let the engine cool down to the point that you can place your hand on the bottom of the engine where the oil fill/dip stick tube is attached to the engine. Be careful and do not get burned. I have found that if you let the engine set for 8 to 10 minutes after doing the above run time it will be cooled enough to do this. This method is the least messy but you do have to push and pull the pump handle to remove the oil while insuring that the discharge hose of the pump remains in what ever you are pumping it into. They sell these pumped at Harbor freight, Amazon, Walmart's etc. for around $10 Refill with new oil as recommended in the owners manual. Probably the best thing that you can do to keep this engine in top running condition is to use Sta-bil storage gas treatment. Follow the directions on Sta-bil to treat the gas for the amount of gas that your gas can holds whether its a 1, 2, 2 1/2 or 5 gallon gas can. Only use the amount called for and always use this when you get fresh gas from a gas station. Don't wait to add this do it as soon as you buy the gas. Regular grade gas is what the engine specifies in it's owners manual. Always make sure to remove the hose from the pressure washer and drain the pressure hose and never leave a water hose attached to the pump. Leave the on switch off and crank the motor a few times without starting it to blow out the water in the pump. You mentioned that the motor comes with a plastic carb, this is true, but they can be replaced. There's many videos here on youtube showing how to do this. A new carb cost around $20 from most small engine repair shops or online should the carb need to be replaced. If you follow these instructions and change the oil yearly or after every 25 hours this Briggs and Stratton engine should last a long time.

Great Review! Thanks! Very happy to purchase this Pressure Washer! We caught a huge deal during a one week Sams Club sale for $199. I also purchased a 3yr Replacement 👍🏾warranty for $30 if any problems should arise other than improper use.

Sam's Club currently has this power washer on sale for $199.00. As far as the Briggs and Stratton is concerned, I am in my sixties and have never had issues with my Briggs and Stratton engines. I never changed the oil in my riding mover and ran it till it was out of oil. It started smoking so I ran and grabbed a quart of 10W40 that I had, poured it in the engine and it ran till I sold the mower 5 years later.

I am like you. I dont like the hose either but plan to get another. I did change the oil after about 40 hours of use.

can you explain the psi vs gpm? i was looking at Simpson pro they have 3200psi 3400psi 3700 psi all saying 2.5 gpm but then 4000psi is 3.5 gpm 4200psi is 4.0 gpm and from 3700psi to 4000psi its 200 dollar jump so i wonder about the 3700psi rating

Very good video! Thank you for sharing man!

Very clear and realistic review. Thank you..

Ive been waiting on your video to check air filter of your unit or i mean briggs and stratton exi coz i bought almost same as your car wash and i badly expercience that was mine is lot of oil in air filter..dont know if is normal or not..but ialready returned it where i bought.

thanks for the review

For the gas valve which way do you turn it?

Mine won’t start. Can anyone tell me why? It’s been sitting for a year in the garage. Should water be totally out of the wand first?

I have been trying to find the part number for just the rope and spring housing. Can anyone help me? TY

I bought 3 yesterday princess auto in Canada was 389.99$ canadien 304 usd was on clearance for 74 usd ( 99.99 canadien) amazing can’t wait to try it!

I just bought this today, works good for me as well, one question how do you use the soap option? Do I just fill the reservoir with soap and connect the soap adapter to the nozzle?

Well done. Thank you

Hey, I have the same one 2800psi from Sam’s. Mine doesn’t start today. I removed the carburetor, it’s plastic and it sucks. I’m trying to take it apart now and run it with CARB cleaner. A new metal xt675 carb is like $20 and should slap right on if this doesn’t work

For your fence spray Mold Armor on it then rinse.

Did the oil that came with the powerwasher fill up the oil tank? would you need to get more or is what came with it enough?

Hi, I just bought mine last month from sams and I just used it today but when I run it, it started smoking so I shut it off. I put all the oil that comes with it. Do you think it needs more oil?

How do you use the soap? I poured the soap in, but I never saw the soap come out when I sprayed

What setting was it on when you washed your pavers and fence? Was it max PSI or max GPM?

Great review... thanks!!

I have problem to use the soap , it dont work

Thank you for your review. I am looking at a Simpson 2800 psi with a Honda engine for $270 here in Northern Illinois. I wish your review was for that. Any advice or suggestion you can give me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance

Its been over a year now that it was posted. Are there any issues with the machine now? I'm strongly considering a purchase of my own. Thanks for the video

Got this for my husband. Should I buy extra oil. If so what kind?

Greetings, I ask you, I have this same Pressure machine and I lost the part that goes inside the outlet of the machine for the pressure and I cannot find it. Can you tell me if you know where to get parts for this machine? thank you

So this model is on sale for $250 at Sam's right now. After using for the last couple of months, how's it going? Thanks for your video!

Does this spray the cold water going thru the engine come out hot water?

Where is the fuel shut off. I’m trying to trouble shoot this for a neighbor. Unless I’m just overlooking it the only thing I can see is on the rear there is a metal screw that looks like it could have been broken off. But I can’t tell for sure. Could you tell me which side of the engine it’s on? Thank you

Thank you for your review. Sam's will be selling this for $199.98 from August 1-9, 2020. Can you post where you found a replacement hose, the brand name, and price? Thanks again.

What gas did you use cause my husband bought the same one and i dont know what gas to use regular, premium, or diesel please we answer back. That you

There is always the red tip and you can spot start the pain on deck, then use yellow. but please use side to side motion for efficiency.

I just picked this up at Sams for $250. Reading reviews before I open the box. Found this review. So after a few months do you still think it is worth it?

Mine is the Kohler motor and came with, what I can only describe as a grenade pin, and i have no idea what it's for . Anyone have any ideas. I can't find anything about it in the manuel.

Just purchased is yesterday and I want to know how the soap works

how do you get the water hose connected to it

I bought mine about year and a half ago, used maybe 5 times and I was gonna use it today and won't start, anyone has any ideas how to fix it, thanks

So you "Spruce" up a "Cedar" fence? LOL Good review video.

Have you ever used the soap reservoir Does it work

i think its pretty damn good!

Wanted a Honda but won’t pay for a Honda, makes so much sense;(

My soap dispenser has hose coming out the back. Is that a siphon hose or what?

What fuel you use for this washer?

What’s the name of the hose? To replace the shitty one

Mine backfires a lot any pointers?

The nicer hose probably came with the nicer engine for $80 more

mine came from the factory with a defect. simpson wont answer phone. rings for a short time and then goes dead.

*All vertically mounted pressure washer pumps are designed to fail. Better to get one with a horizontally mounted pump, I just bought a new simpson megashot 3200psi 2.5gpm washer on ebay for $300 shipped to my door and it's a better unit than the one on your vid.*

I just got mine Simpson mega shot 2800 psi with Honda engine. It came late so I got it ready but didn’t start it. It has a oil drain plug but my model ms 60773-s did not come with a soap reservoir. I’m kind of disappointed I thought it would have one. (Got on eBay 299.00. Free shipping ). It comes with a siphon hose but not sure how to use that. ? What carry a bucket with solution? Any hints ? I already bought gallon purple power power washer solution. I have a foam cannon can I just use that than use high pressure on the vinyl siding and deck. Any feedback welcome Thanks

I only use non-ethanol gas in all my small engine tools.

I enjoyed this review but it seemed a bit biased - probably should have purchased the Honda engine instead to be satisfied.

Gulf Shores. My beach spot.

199 right now just grabbed one

Price ???

Man, I’m glad I bought the Honda 3300,..this one sucks. Plus the Honda you can drain the oil. Well worth the extra cash

For commercial use not enough psi or gpm

I just saw this vid on a different channel and a different voice lol...

i just wanna wash my car carpet lol

Gulf Shores AL. roll tide

Dont be lazy just do the damn fence

right out of the box your frustrated you bought it i do my home work first if you want a honda spend the 80.00 bucks maybe that one came witha better hose now you must by a better hose. i'M buying a sthl washer because i did my home work.

Lazy!
