Default What's a Good, Not too Pricey Pressure Washer?

Hi guys (and ladies),

Living up here in the great Northwet, I can see the need for a pressure washer. I'd like to use a foam gun to clean our cars, as well as be able to clean concrete/asphalt walkways, decks, windows, etc....

I'd love some input from the crew. I want to buy a versatile PW, but don't want to spend a lot of money.

Do you have recommendations?

TIA

I have a Generac unit and it works well as it has several settings for different jobs. Many will also suggest Karcher which is quite popular. This is one item where I suggest and extended warranty. If the pump burns out, you need to replace the machine. The pumps are not cheap and often not the highest of quality pieces. Protect your investment for years of good use.
